“You can’t come and pick me like a criminal only to ask me to go without telling me why you arrested me on the first place” (sic), Chukwuma told operatives of the EFCC on Wednesday after he was released by the anti-graft agency.

Chukwuma’s company also punctured several of allegations advanced by the anti-graft agency as reasons for the arrest, saying “EFCC also claimed that Dr Chukwuma is being investigated by the Capital Market and Insurance Fraud Unit of the Commission’s Lagos office. We equally challenge EFCC to show proof of this investigation”.
