One newspaper reported it and no other paper said anything about it, but because it was speculative and we heard it in the media, we believe that for whatever it is worth, let the Attorney General write to the EFCC so that the copy of the petition can come out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we are still here, we can dig out the facts because it is in the public court. It should be brought out for the world to see. At least, as I speak with\u00a0 you, it is still in the speculative and that was why I challenge anybody who had any information about any missing dime of Ogun State to say so publicly.<\/p>\n<p>Open administration<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFraud is fraud and if something has gone wrong it has gone wrong. What we run in Ogun State is completely open administration. I think this is part of the deliberate ploy, because most of the time, what people want to believe about public deterrents is the negative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want to walk on\u00a0 the street and some one will accuse me of something I know nothing of\u00a0 because someone has written a petition which he is not bold enough to bring forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it\u2019s about the soul of Ogun State, we had a process. In all these, I have faced the opposition for about five to six years, fair enough and in all that, we kept doing our work, hoping that the next process would come out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the beauty of democracy; that if there are issues, you can battle them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Comments are moderated.
