PRINCE FRANK UKONGA BACKS H.E. GOODLUCK JONATHAN'S CANDID TRUTH-Prince Frank Ukonga- in his mothly state of the Union Lectures published earlier in the Year when the News EFCC boss Lamode was appointed Prince Frank Ukonga advised him to beam his anti corruption search ligth to the directors of ministries and parastatal most of whom are stupendously rich, rather than focus only on Governors and top Government officials; the junior lower ranks are indeed culpable and should be probed. We thank the President and Commander in chief of the Nigerian Federation for having the same streams of consciousness with Prince Frank Ukonga- the SDMP Presidential Hopeful in the 2015 polls and we are indeed honestly advicing the President never to be deterred by this national adversity but to take the bull by its horns , with new determination, focus and handwork as  history becone's at the President...

Long Live Federal Republic of Nigeria
