AWKA — ANAMBRA State governor,
Mr. Peter Obi, said yesterday that he
did not sign any agreement with Chief
Willie Obiano, the state’s governor-
elect, noting that his only interest
was to ensure that a credible person
was elected to continue the good
governance which the state has
witnessed during his administration.
Speaking at the Alex Ekwueme
Square, Awka, where he distributed
90 vehicles to directors and officials
in the local government system, Obi
said God had blessed him
abundantly, that attempting to act as
a distraction to a governor he helped
to win, would amount to committing
abominable sin.
Obi said: “I have enough for myself
and my only concern is for the new
governor to be able to meet the
aspirations of our people.”
According to him, the present
administration will continue to work
till the last day and those who feel
that some of the things done by
government are for the election are
missing the point, as he will continue
to do more work for the state.
He observed that the problem with
governance in Nigeria was because
people had refused to change the way
they did things.
Governor Obi insisted that the best
way to meet the yearnings of the
people was to serve the public with
their money, stressing that diverting
public funds to personal pockets
would always bring a curse to those
concerned.
On the vehicles being distributed to
various categories of workers, Obi
argued that if an elected chairman of
a local government or any other
politician could be given a vehicle
immediately he was elected, there
was no reason a civil servant that
had put in 25 years in the service
should not get a car.
On the ongoing recruitment of 7,000
civil servants in the state, Obi said
his government had set aside the
money to pay them for two years,
which he put at about N5 billion.
The money, he explained, was
already secured in the bank in order
not to encumber the incoming
governor.
He also said the recruitment had
been structured in such a way that all
the towns in the state would be given
a sense of belonging by ensuring that
at least 10 persons each were
recruited from all the towns in the
state.

I haven't come across a comment as daft as this in my entire e-life.

Would not it be better to give the civil servant the 3 million in cash for retirement or something, as soon as that car leaves the factory it depreciates, maybe they don't want a car, but need to pay school fees or fix a leaking roof. I'm not feeling this car thing Gov. Give them the cash and let them get what they need

When will Obi stop lying, cursing himself and deceiving the gullible
N5b for 7 000 workers in 2 years
How much will each worker take home per month?

Obi said God has blessed him abundantly." Someone remind him that God does not bless with stolen public funds. We can now understand the level of money he has stolen
