“Taraba Is Broke” by gen2briz(m): 5:50pm On Jan 05, 2014 |
Taraba state is bankrupt. Its treasury is empty; local government councils can either pay salaries or execute projects, it was revealed at the weekend. The Council Chairman of Sardauna local government area, Dr. David Jedua who gave the hint said “for the first time the state is so broke that even the treasury of the Bureau for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs is empty”. “The bureau for Local Government is bankrupt. That is why the local governments are finding it difficult to pay salaries, talk more execute projects”, he said. He spoke at the 17th annual Cultural Festival of the Bang people, held in Bang Fim. Jedua said some people are in government but there are “sycophants”. “There are just there leaking the boots of the government; they cannot bring anything to the doorsteps of the people”, he said. Former Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Amb. Emmanuel Njiwah had earlier alleged that “heavy looting” was going on in Taraba state through the Bureau for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs. The bureau holds the joint account through which the local governments get their monthly federal statutory allocations. Njiwah said: “Go and see the mess going on in the Bureau for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs. The looting is unquantifiable. “Take the SURE-P funds, for instance; the money has all gone.” Origin. http://thenationonlineng.net/new/taraba-is-broke/ |
