I could not condone such a law. History and my conscience will not forgive me if i did. I had no choice therfore but to ask for its repeal as part of my government's recovery agenda. Yes, I needed to recover the billions of public funds that would have been lavished.

I believe that those of us who have had the privilege of occupying exalted positions must be human enough to resist the temptation of feeding fat on the lean resources of the state at the expense of the people. We must know when to say enough is enough.

So let no one make any mistake about it. The governors and Speakers Pensions and Privileges law was a bad law that needed to be repealed. it was anti people. It was in bad faith. It was fraudulent.

It is worthy to note that I am supposed to benefit from this law when I leave office as governor. Yet I called for its repeal. This should leave no one in doubt that I am acting in the best interest of our state and our people.

Besides we have cases where retired civil servants already earning pensions contest for public office and end up earning double pension as former governors or deputies and as a retired civil servant. In every sense therefore the law in question is condemnable.

The Pensions Act states that only those who have served in the public service for a minimum of 10 yrs are pensionable. Paying Governors , Speakers and their deputies who spend a maximum of 8 years or less in office is actually criminal because it is against the law of the land.

Severance allowances are targeted at cushioning post public office financial challenges for non pensionable positions such as Governor and Speaker. How then can the same category of former public office holders turn around to receive Pensions?

Paying Governors, Speakers and their Deputies Pension after receiving severance allowances is criminal
