After weeks of speculations and war of words between the Media Aides of the incumbent Gov. Alex Otti, and his predecessor, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu, Abia State Government, has finally released the much-expected forensic audit report of Ikpeazu’s administration.

It also contains details of how the administration authorized the release of N10 billion from the state coffers for the purpose of building Abia Airport, and later instructed the contractor to wire the fund into 32 different accounts. “So, we are going to release the report. We want people to read it and interpret it. The report is ready in its content,” he declared.

“The audit is not directed at anybody, however, the actors have the opportunity to defend themselves.” Ekeoma challenged those who felt exposed by the shocking revelations in the report to rather go to the EFCC with their facts and clear their names instead of resorting to media war to confuse the gullible with fabricated documents.
