Ex-amnesty Boss, Kuku Releases Surgery Photos, Says He Left N5.3b In Account

 Kingsley Kuku, the former presidential adviser on Niger
Delta amnesty, has released pictures of his knee operation
in the US and denied claims that he is on the run.

He also said he left N5.3 billion in the account of the
amnesty programme and has no reason to run away from
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC)
which recently invited him for questioning.

Kuku is currently receiving medical treatment in St. Andrew
Hospital, Birmingham, Alabama, according to a statement
issued by him on Sunday.
He promised to return to Nigeria to shed more light on the
programme.


“Today, Amnesty project has trained pilots as we have sent
our students to the best aviation school in the world. We
have about 100 students in Lufthansa training school in
Germany,” he said.

”In addition, we have about 550 students in the United
States, more than 300 in Europe and more than 1000 in
Nigeria. I therefore, urge the new coordinator to take human
audit and balance it with what was allocated to the agency
in order to draw a line between those frivolous and
malicious petition been sent around.

“I am a patriotic Nigerian; I have future and image to
protect. Therefore, my integrity is more important to me
than vanity of this world. The total liberation of my people of
Niger Delta from poverty, unemployment, backwardness
and illiteracy motivated me to design a program that will
empower our youth.

”I have no regret serving Nigeria under former president
Goodluck Jonathan. As human being, we must have made
some mistakes in course of discharging our duty. I have no
foreign bank account, I have no house anywhere apart from
Nigeria and I have since returned all government properties
in my possession, including my diplomatic passport before
leaving office.”
