The Senator representing Sokoto
North Senatorial District, Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko has reacted to allegation
that he and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso misappropriated N18billion while they
were Governors.
Wamakko was Sokoto State governor
between 2007 and 2015, while Kwankwaso was Kano State governor first from 1999
to 2003 and then from 2011 to 2015.
Speaking to journalists in Sokoto
regarding the allegation, Wamakko said, “I have never had N1billion in my life.
I am not a rich man. I don’t keep money.”
He also insisted the media
publication was not from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
“It was part of the ceaseless but
abortive evil machinations of a failed politician who thinks that Wamakko
should never breathe and live.
“The frail, failed, ungodly
politician and his unpatriotic mercenaries want to bring Wamakko down.
“It is the Almighty Allah that
made Wamakko what he is now and He is the only one who can bring him down.
“I have never stolen any money,”
Wamakko said.
The EFCC, he said, “is a
reputable agency that has officials with respect and decorum, who will never
use uncourteous and unethical language like the one used in the publication.”
