He called on Kayode to apologize to Rotimi Amaechi over the false accusation.
“If the CBN releases the said money to NIA what is Amaechi’s business? Was Amaechi working with Former NSA Dasuki or the CBN? Nigerian should be grateful to Amaechi because Nigeria would have collapsed by now with the level of stealing that was going on during the last administration”, he declared.
He appeal to the Senate to confirm the EFCC acting Chairman, Mr Ibrahim Magu as substantive Chairman of the anti-corruption agency, describing the success achieved by Magu over the past few months as outstanding and unprecedented.
