Recall that Micheal, in leaked audios online recounted how Atiku set up fake companies and used them to divert government funds to his private pocket while he was the Vice President.
However, Atiku while reacting to the development declared the allegations by Achimugu as nothing new. The PDP candidate also said he is the most investigated person in the country.
Responding to a direct question that sought to confirm if the voice in the audio leaked by Achimugu was his own, Atiku said: “that audio has disclosed nothing new”.

Reacting via Twitter, Festus Keyamo said Atiku admitting to the leaked audio as ‘nothing new’ means he has lost all sense of decency and sees corruption as a way of life.
He tweeted: “Just listen to Atiku. When a man is set in his ways of corruption, he no longer feels the people’s outrage regarding corruption.
“Atiku basically admits to the tape, but says he said ‘nothing new’ there. Atiku has lost all sense of decency and now sees corruption as a way of life.”
