The businessman, widely known as Sujimoto, made this statement in a video released on Friday.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has labeled his prominent real estate company as wanted for money laundering and misappropriation of funds, Dailyeconomy reports.
Sujimoto attributed the EFCC’s declaration to a dispute with the Enugu State government, citing rising construction material costs as a factor.
In the emotional video, he expressed, “I’m not a thief or fugitive; this is a contract between my company and the Enugu State government.
“Enugu State government asked me to help them build a couple of projects, which were very interesting.
“In the middle of the project, I was going to Enugu every week, and the governor said he wanted to build the tallest building in Nigeria, a 69-storey building. I designed it and he gave it to me.”
He thereby vowed to visit the EFCC to clear his name over a contract arrangement with the Enugu State government that went “sour.”
