The former Governor said this while speaking at the quarterly public lecture series of National Institute for Cultural Orientation (NICO).

He also said “My prosecution is political. Our accounts in Abia state were transparent under my watch. The US knows, the UK knows. I have been given a red carpet in these two countries. I have been given a red carpet in China. In fact, I am stronger in fighting corruption than President Buhari because he is not fighting it well”.

“I have recovered peoples’ money and given them back. I am a creator of wealth at every level. If any court finds me to be corrupt , it should jail me. Corruption is the bane of this country.

“A corrupt judge and corrupt politician is worst than armed robber.

“Nigerians should start electing presidents that have meaning and gut to take decisions.
