New Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, after his inauguration on Wednesday, November 11, stated that he does not want to go to jail and so will not be stealing from the accounts of the ministry.
Amaechi said this to members of the ministry after his successful swearing in ceremony.
“I am not as bad as people from the outside say I am. I only engage based on principles. I neither take nor give bribes. If you want to relate with me, don’t give me money. I will also not give you money. I don’t want to go to jail so I won’t steal. But I won’t spare thieves,” he said
