I'm Now a Rice Famer, Leave Me Alone – Former AGF Mike Aondoakaa Cries Out
Former Attorney-General of Nigeria and Chairman, Mikap Nigeria Limited (Producers of MIVA Rice) Chief Mike Aondoakaa has warned all concerned to leave him out of the controversies that have bewildered Former Benue State Governor, Gabriel Suswam lately saying he was now a rice farmer and focused on creating wealth for his fellow farmers.
The former AGN who announced his departure from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP earlier this year was responding to a publication in the Nigerian Pilot Newspaper of Tuesday, October 13, 2015 captioned "EFCC TO REVIEW AKUME'S CASE FILE" wherein the author, Kenneth Atavti alleged that he received the case file of former Governor George Akume while in office as Attorney General of the Federation.
Chief Aondoakaa denied the allegations saying he did not collect any case file from EFCC including that of former Governor George Akume throughout his tenure as AGN.
He added that he did not believe that Suswam would want to drag his name into the matter with the intent to destroy me for reasons best known to the ex-governor.
Read excerpts of his press release below:
"I wish to state categorically that throughout my tenure as Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, I did not collect any case file from EFCC including that of former Governor George Akume.
EFCC has been so independent and transparent and never deposited their case files with the office of the Attorney General to the best of my knowledge and throughout my over two years as Attorney General nobody brought any case file of former Governor Akume nor did anyone make any complaint against him through my office."
"It is pertinent to note that the office of the Attorney General of the Federation does not carryout investigations and therefore has no business with case files. As a lawyer, I do not believe that former Governor Gabriel Suswam would want to drag my name into this matter with the intent to destroy me for reasons best known to him."
"I personally find it extremely strange that former Governor Suswam who is a lawyer would be so quiet on reporting such serious criminal allegations for eight years and seven years after I left office as Attorney General."
"I wish state that I am now a rice farmer with the aim of creating wealth for local rice farmers in Nigeria. I would therefore not want to be distracted from my business on issues that do
not concern me."
