Commenting on the development, Dr Madubuko restated government's resolve to stop all avenues of diverting public revenue.

Dr Madubuko regretted the involvement of some highly placed persons like the custodians of traditional institutions who are supposed to be helping in generating revenue for the development of the state.

The AIRS Executive Director disclosed that Ndi Anambra's complaints against touts and other fraudsters in the guise of revenue collectors is touching the government hence the resolve to root them out completely. 

Dr Madubuko said the litany of development projects lined up by the Soludo administration requires all revenue fronts are effectively harnessed for their implementation.
