“Now, the chairman of the committee on the recovery of what they call government properties, Mr Ndubuaku, has come up with the latest claim of 67 vehicles and N50bn.

“The new Attorney General, Ndukwe Nnawuchi, has added his voice by also making the claim of N20bn against the former governor.

“We want to let Nigerians know that the PDP people in the state are doing their campaign for possible re-run because they know that, by all considerations, Chief Ihedioha never won that election.”
