PRESS RELEASE

The attention of Ebonyi State government has been drawn to a report recently released by BudgiT, an otherwise reputable financial rating agency, placing Ebonyi among states owing salaries for six months.

Without attempting to impugn on the integrity of the organisation, we wish to state categorically, that the report is outrightly false, and contradict all verifiable facts and evidence in the state.

It is on record that the present administration in Ebonyi State under Engr. David Nweze Umahi, FNSE, Fnate, from its inception, has never owed salaries of workers even for one month.

As a matter of fact, workers salaries have always been paid on or before 24th of every month up till July, 2022.

We hereby urge BidgiT to specify their source or remove Ebonyi state from the report as it has no business there. Curiously, all efforts to reach the organization through their advertised phone numbers have proved abortive as they are perpetually switched off.

Meanwhile, the supposed source for Ebonyi indices have denied sending such a report.

BudgiT and other such organizations are advised to always verify their facts properly before releasing statistics to the public, as incorrect reports are capable of diminishing their respect and integrity.

For the avoidance of doubt, BidgiT is advised to seek verification from the appropriate Government Ministries, Agencies and Departments in the State, including speaking with the Civil servants.

We cannot be deterred from delivering quality governance to our people while ensuring the best welfare for our workers.

Na dat Akeredolu own i no understand u dey colet oil money still owing salary unless say dat one too na fake news....

Umahi is right

I don't like Umahi's politics but I respect his administrative skills, I was surprised by that report.

NaijaRoyalty:
Umahi is right

Yes!

Because he pays Ebonyi workers mutilated salary.

Very wicked man

When I saw that report, I know something is fishy but the good thing is that most of them are APC states

How will you owe with the paltry sum you pay like Zulum?

if they expose him more

He'll gather some fake APC urchins And they'll claim to be workers and they'll protest with their placards
OUR GOVERNOR IS PAYING US AT WHEN DUE

Fear Africa politics

I believe Umahi 100%. Umahi’s government is the best ebonyi ever had it in decades.

Umahis government that cares so much about ebonyi people that instead of bringing in white people from some ebonyi construction projects he employs ebonyi people, cause he discovered white people inflate their projects alot, that inflated money he prefers to give it to his people than to give it to any white man.

But in some states just snapping pictures with white men is seen as achievement

Ebonyi state civil servants earn as little as 15k per month, so how will he owe them when the money they earn isn't even enough.

Most of them survived through petty farming and other side hustle, today Buhari has ruined Nigeria so badly that side hustle contributes almost nothing to the running of the home.

I see Peter Obi changing Nigeria for good when he wins next year.

This I have seen.

Let Akeredolu come & deny it
E no get d balls to do dat
Onigbese

Umahi might kiss asses like it's nobody's business but he's a better governor than most.

I am shocked he is among those owing salaries

Other than Umahi's mistake of frolicking with the evil ruling party, he sparogatively is the best governor from the South East and one of the best in Nigeria.

That's a fact known universally now. You're the true Igboman after the Orders of Nnamdi Azikiwe, Emeka Anyaoku, Eze Gburugburu Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Ben Nwabueze, Alex Ekwueme, etc. Not this Container Trader who's without substance and who holds no fidelity to Truth. He once cursed himself and generations unborn if he ever left APGA, the political party of the Elders.

Seriously, we were all surprised seeing Ebonyi on that list...

For real

Good

BudgeIT should be ashamed

Goahead:
