But fielding questions on Midland FM in Ilorin yesterday, Saraki said the money stolen was N7 million, but when he visited the palace in Offa, he gave the people of the community N10 million.
He said: “What I will say is that we should be thanking God.
“When the issue Offa started, it was like play.

“How much is in that safe?
“Someone said the money in the safe is not up to N7 million.
“The day I went to greet Kabiyesi in the palace, I gave them N10 million.”
