''An SSS was pushing me out as a governor from his office. So, I’ve taken enough of insults from Oshiomhole and all those that are planning this evil.
''You said the anti-graft agencies are on the trail of many people in your government. Are you suspecting that they are part of this conspiracy because what they said before the election, they claimed that you were taking money from government coffers to buy votes?
''First and foremost, if you think right and people reason well, if you want to withdraw N17 billion in this country now, it will take you two years to get N17 billion from all the banks in Nigeria. So, these are frivolities.

''But anybody can say anything against you just to find a way to attack you and I’m saying that they should apply some reasonability in what they do.

Recall that Legit.ng reported that Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha, accused Comrade Adams Oshiomhole of witch-hunting him after he ensured his emergence as national chairman of the ruling APC.
Okorocha is at logger heads with the national leadership of the APC, accused Oshiomhole of plotting to bring him down.
Okorocha’s grievance with the leadership of the APC started in the build-up to the last general election when his anointed candidate Uche Nwosu lost the Imo state governorship candidate ticket to Senator Hope Uzodinma.
