Abia State, Columns/Opinions/Letters, Good Governance, Politics
DR. ALEX OTTI'S KPMG AUDIT RELEASE AS COUP DE GRACE THAT STRIPS IKPEAZU TOTALLY NAKED. I have always regarded Victor Ikpeazu as a shameless man working the streets naked and smiling at everybody but nothing prepared me for the shock of how truly stripped the KPMG report has exposed him. This man's mental frame was simply unhinged to corruption and debauchery. It is that bad. His patronizers instead of hiding their crack heads in the shame that Ikpeazu brought to them, are back again in town explaining, analyzing, educating us and wishing away the audit report as administrative procedure, process…
