However, Senator Ekweremadu in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media, Uche Anichukwu reiterated that he had declared all his assets with the Code of Conduct Bureau as required by law… “The so-called panel sought and obtained his Assets Declaration Forms but could not look at them since it is clearly out on a vendetta and smear campaign. This is clearly part of the politics of 2019. The senator has, nevertheless, briefed his lawyers and will meet the panel in court.”
