Margibi County senatorial aspirant, Nathaniel McGill, continues to plead his innocence about the charges levied against him by the United States Treasury Department.
The former Minister of State for Presidential Affairs maintained that the United States Government is being misinformed by wrong intel that they might have been gotten against him.
In his consistent denial against his designation and sanction placed on him by the United States Treasury Department, McGill said he has every reason to believe that the Americans do not hate him but must have been misinformed into believing the wrong information; some other people might have told them for which he was designated and sanctioned for alleged acts of corruption without he being allowed to state his side of the story.
“I hate corruption. I don’t like corruption. Let me say this; I know people will hate me for this; some people are in this government lied on me, but my God will see them and judge them,” McGill cursed.
He maintained strongly that he is not a target of the US Department of Treasury and he sees no reason for ever believing it, adding that “those who had the genuine reason to investigate corruption must have unfortunately been misled by others who did not have any evidence or facts to prove their allegation against him.
“So, I cannot say I’m being targeted by the American government,” he said.
He further told the residents the importance of getting registered as valid voters when the National Elections Commission kick-starts the biometric voter registration exercise in April 2023 in the county.
