Debunking the Phantom Debts and Ecological Loan Fallacy
My attention has been drawn to trending claims by the Anambra State Government that my administration left behind inherited debts, including a ₦2 billion ecological loan, contractor liabilities, and unpaid salaries, gratuities, and pensions. This is completely false.
We systematically liquidated historical gratuities and arrears dating back several years, amounting to over ₦35 billion. At the point of handover, the state owed nothing in salaries, gratuities, or pensions, nor did we owe anything to any contractor for projects duly executed and certified.
The ₦2 billion ecological fund in question was released barely three months before the end of my tenure for the Oko/Umuchiana erosion crisis. Despite pressure to spend the money, I refused, insisting that it should be left for my successor because government is a continuum and the funds were tied to a specific project.
The money was therefore left 100 per cent intact in First Bank, in Account No. 2018779464, with a balance of over ₦2.13 billion.
It is important to stress that funds tied to specific projects or set aside for particular purposes were not even included in the over ₦75 billion in savings we left behind.
If anybody can establish anything to the contrary, I will stop campaigning. -PO
@ARISEtv@OjyOkpe In my Town in Igbo land there's an adage that goes like this "we usually know A masquerade that will dance well by his first appearance". So, I don't know what Kpabio is talking about......
@realladypink @RealQueenBee__ Are you going to do it alone? The reason why I asked you such question is because the Nigerians i know is not United.... they're fund of tribalism when it comes to the nation wide protest.
@nerdtechgasm That went too far over your head and you would've understood it with 10th foot inch nails. How do you react when someone brutally hit your child, respond without sentiment. I stand with Israel 🇮🇱 💯 ❤️
@OladiranAlabi@abati1990 This issue has nothing to do with all 36 states because they rigged the election in those states and they used thugs to scare people away from the pulling unit. So, they lost the election and that was the reason he was declared winner in the middle of the night.
@BMEEDO2024 They built refinery in order to steal from the masses and that's why they don't want to count our votes. Those who supported the evil 😈 are now enjoying the consequences with those that did not.
@abati1990 FOR EMEFIELE'S SUSPENSION & ARREST TO MAKE SENSE: He did not act alone. He acted with support from PMB's family, friends, cabals, & hangers-on. He played along with some governors, lawmakers, ministers & heads of security agencies. They must all be relieved & arrested.
@SaharaReporters I love my Labour Party 🥳 do you know why! They say, honour to who whose honour is do. You have did things right, now the Same mouth he used to call you a failure is the mouth he will use to shout for joy on Saturday when obedient people will show them whom we really are.
