I Never Visited The Residence Of Justice Okoro As He Claimed – Amaechi


Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi has debunked in its entirety the claims by a Justice of the Supreme Court, Inyang Okoro that he approached the judge over any case whatsover describing the accusation by the Okoro as a figment of his imagination.
Justice Inyang Okoro, who is one of the seven judges raided and subsequently nabbed by the Department of State Service in the week that was, had claimed the former Rivers governor, is the mastermind behind his quagmire as he failed to buy in to the deal of ruling in favour of the ruling party in some state election cases among others.

Amaechi has unhesitantly issued a statement through his media office, asking Justice Okoro to face the charges of corruption levelled against him rather than politicise the issue as it were.

The statement read: “This accusation from Justice Okoro against Amaechi is a figment of his imagination, concocted to obfuscate and politicise the real issues for his arrest and DSS investigation of allegations of corruption against him.

 “The claims by Justice Okoro against Amaechi are blatant lies, bereft of any iota of truth or even logic. Amaechi did not, and has never approached Justice Okoro in respect of the cases Okoro mentioned or any other case.

 “This is a cheap attempt, albeit,  political move to drag the name of Amaechi into something he knows nothing about.

 “Justice Okoro should face his issues and leave Amaechi out of it.  He will be hearing from our lawyers.”
