Akpatason said, “I am not aware (of it) but I think it is a routine thing that they do. I don’t think there is any big deal about it.
“It is a normal thing. Ideally, they should have the account details of business people, politicians and others.”
When asked about the possibility of clamping down on targeted persons, the legislator said, “I do not think it is targeted at any particular person. It is a routine thing they are doing and they have the right to do it.”
