Former presidential adviser on Niger Delta amnesty, Kingsley Kuku, has denied claims that he is on the run . In a statement released today August 2nd , he shared photos of his knee operation in the US and said that he has no reason to rum away from the EFCC because he left N5.3 billion in the account of the amnesty programme .He also promised to return to Nigeria to shed more light on the programme.
He said in the statement : “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.
”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.”
Kuku is currently receiving medical treatment in St. Andrew Hospital, Birmingham, Alabama, For more scintillating and juicy stories, follow the official Naijapals accounts On Twitter - @Naijapals and Facebook - www.facebook.com/naijapals

Foolish man using surgery to run away. But let him come back as Marabak was taken to court of stretcher. His own is nothing as he can still walk on his own.
