Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has challenged those accusing him of corruption to provide evidence of their claims.
Atiku who gave the challenge on Monday during his visit to Yalam Press Limited in Jabi, Abuja, also vowed to fight corruption with a high level of passion if he became the president.
His words: “I will shock everyone because I believe that I will fight corruption like never before.
“It is sickening to continue to regurgitate allegations of corruption against me by people who have failed to come forward with a single shred of evidence of my misconduct while in office.
“People who are bereft of ideas about entrepreneurial spirit always think that everyone else is a thief just like them.
“Despite previous desperate efforts to link me with corruption, the William Jefferson trial in the United States ended in 2009 without indicting me or linking me to corrupt activities.
“If Atiku is a thief merely because of his resourcefulness and successful investments, my political enemies should tell Nigerians the sources of their own stupendous wealth.”
