PEOPLE’S PRESSURE CAN LEAD TO IRRATIONAL AND REGRETTABLE ACTIONS AND BEHAVIOUR.
— 1 Samuel 13:11–12
DON’T BOW TO THE PRESSURE OF PEOPLE; IT IS NOT THE WAY OF WISDOM.✍️
Beloved, choose the path of peace, wisdom, and divine direction. Guard your heart and mind, and refuse to allow people’s pressure to push you into decisions you may later regret. As you walk in wisdom and follow God’s direction, you will not waste your life, in Jesus’ name! 🔥👏
What a powerful message from the topic, “WISDOM AND THE STATE OF THE HEART AND MIND.” Indeed, wisdom is essential for maintaining the right state of heart and mind and for making decisions that align with God’s purpose.
May we receive grace to walk in wisdom and preserve the peace of our hearts and minds, in Jesus’ name! 🔥👏
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
