Ekweremadu said he had absolute faith in God, noting that he had done nothing wrong to warrant the “continued harassment” by the security agencies and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
“So, my hands are clean. But if the EFCC wants me to come and answer, I am prepared to answer any call from anybody as a responsible citizen.
“Even at that, I will continue to advocate justice, rule of law, and equity,” he said.
According to Punch, Ekweremadu spoke when the Archbishop of Enugu Province, Anglican Communion, Most Rev. Emmanuel Chukwuma, led a delegation of clergies of Enugu Diocese of the Church on a solidarity visit to his Enugu residence on Sunday evening.

Ekweremadu pointed out that he had never been in a position to manage public finances or award contracts all through his political career.
