"Is my honesty in
doubt? I have told Nigerians and I repeat to Nigerians today I am not corrupt
and I don't like money. I am not one swayed by money. I have lived a character
that most Nigerians can tell you.
I try as much as possible not to annoy God by saying I am
honest. But with all modesty, I am a honest Nigerian and there are very few
honest Nigerians." On why people keep having the impression that he's
corrupt, Amaechi replied; "When did that impression start? Nyesom Wike
becomes the governor. He takes documents from Government house that people can’t
read, and says oh, we sold Gas turbines and disappeared with the money. He set
up a panel of inquiry? Publish the report."
When asked whether he thinks
the corruption angle came because he led the campaign organization of President
Buhari, "When you talk about the PDP angle, they are bitter that we fought
and led the movement against the former government and PDP, and we were
successful to have removed them from power. If I was corrupt, why didn't President
Goodluck prosecute me? The fight between Goodluck and Rivers state government
or myself lasted for two years”, Amaechi said, during an interview with Channels TV. When asked whether he is corrupt.
