Tony Nwoye not arrested by EFCC -Aide

Media aide to Dr Tony Nwoye, Egbuna Nduanya has dismissed as outright falsehood news making the round that his boss has been arrested by anti graft body, EFCC.

Nduanya in a release made available to the media stated…”Friends and supporters have drawn our attention to a fake news to the effect that Dr Tony Nwoye,  has been arrested by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

The fake news came with shock given that Dr Nwoye has never in the course of his professions as a medical doctor, business man, student activist and politician ever been invited or had any dealings with the EFCC. That is because he has never been involved with any financial or economic crime.

Our constituents know where this is coming from, the very woman who has sought to spread mud on Dr Nwoye on account of his grassroots appeal and popularity.

Ndi Anambra and indeed, the electorate in Anambra North know that there is one person who has been facing trial and running from party to party to escape her date with the law. She has her date with the courts on February 13, 2023, and shortly after she has her date with Ndi Anambra North.

We advise her to robustly acquit herself of the 25 counts she is facing for alleged financial crimes amounting to N7.9 billion and also at the same time acquit herself of what she has done over nearly eight years representing Anambra North.

Those are the issues facing her. We wish her well.”
