Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has dared anyone to come out and prove any single allegation of corruption against him.
The former Vice President said this at a facility tour of the new ultra-modern Yaliam Press Limited, in the Jabi area of Abuja.
Recall, that former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, and many other Nigerians, have accused Atiku of being one of the corrupt politicians that will never make it become Nigeria’s President.
Reacting, Atiku advised “self-righteous political enemies”, to either prove the alleged corrupt activities, or mind the skeletons in their own closets and keep quiet.
“It is sickening to continue to regurgitate allegations of corruption against me by people who have failed to come forward with a single shred of evidence of my misconduct while in office”, Atiku said.
He added that he had not been convicted of corruption by any court in the land or elsewhere, and that his political enemies have been parading a fake morality, to fool gullible Nigerians.
“Despite previous desperate efforts to link me with corruption, the William Jefferson trial in the United States ended in 2009 without indicting me or linking me to corrupt activities”, he noted.
Atiku, who was responding to the welcome address by the Chairman/CEO of Yaliam Press Limited, Yahaya Ali Amfani, recalled that he pasted a ‘reminder’ at his bed rest, during his training as a Customs Officer, that he would retire from any agency, if he had not attained the headship of the place at the age of 40.
Atiku told the management and staff of Yaliam Press, that he retired from the Customs Service with an untainted record, and that if anybody had evidence that he stole a kobo at Customs or during his tenure as Vice President, such accusers should come forward or file a petition against him.
