The immediate past Governor of Delta State, Ifeanyi Okowa says he knows the people behind his probe by the EFCC.
The EFCC is probing Okowa, who was a 2 term governor, over an alleged diversion of the sum of N1.3 trillion.
The ex-governor described the allegations made against him as malicious and politically motivated, adding that some individuals were attempting to distort facts to serve their interests
“In politics, there are many things one must face but it’s unfortunate when baseless accusations are presented to the media. To claim that someone could misappropriate such an amount implies that they would need to take N16 to N20 billion monthly for 96 months
This is not just unreasonable; it’s a deliberate attempt to mislead. I am not afraid of any investigation & will not stop the EFCC from carrying out its duties
Unlike others who seek court orders to obstruct investigations, I believe in transparency. However, the public deserves accurate information not fabrications by certain individuals,” he said
