Godwin Obaseki whose tenure as Edo State governor comes to end this November said he is prepared to report himself to the Economic and Financial Times Commission any time he is invited to provide answers to any allegation.
Obaseki who was speaking to news reporters in Abuja said his opponents were busy cooking up allegations against him in naked pursuit of vendetta, but he is unmoved because is eight years of service has been rewarding to Edo State.
“People are filling unnecessary and silly petitions you know the kind of people that are opposed to me in Edo State, they are very wicked people, they are very jealous people, they are very envious because they cannot show as much of their achievements as we have achieved in the last eight years.”
“Why should I have fears? I think what is important is focus, I came in and ignored the noise and just focused on what I felt was important and today, you can see the results.
“What happens after that is not up to me. If these people come in and continue their political witch hunt and do whatever they think they can do to hurt me, is their problem. So I am not afraid. I’m not worried. I know they are generating a lot of unnecessary and silly petitions, but I am not afraid, it’s part of the challenge.
“If they (EFCC) will pick me up, I can even hand in myself over if they call me , I don’t have anything to hide, so I’m not afraid.”
