While noting that he had attracted developments to his hometown and other neighbouring Communities, Gbagi said the Attorney-General& Commissioner for Justice believes he is the greatest threat to his governorship ambition in the area. “Hence, he will go to any length politically.”

Gbagi who denied any involvement in the four staff of Signatious hotel who were allegedly stripped naked, photographed, arrested and prosecuted by the hotel management said, “I will not condescend to physically either by extortion to strip anybody naked.”
