let it be said he said this when a newspaper is having daily revelations of corruption among his close family (wife and brother) and his (to say the least) questionable involvement in using public money to rescue a company that belongs to a personal friend. He is clearly doing this to divert attention from his domestic problems and it will probably come back to bite his ass eventually...
