ChiefPaulinus Akpeki, the immediate past Chief of Staff to the Delta State governor, yesterday in Benin City said the immediate past governor of the state, Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, did not owe workers’salaries before he left office in may 2015.
Chief Akpeki said that all workers salaries in Delta State were paid by the Dr. Uduaghan administration before he vacated office on May 29th 2015.

According to him, “Dr. Uduaghan in fact gave approval to the Accountant General to pay all workers salaries for the month of May before he handed over on the 29th of May, 2015.”

“It is not true that we owed any salaries before we left office,” Akpeki said, adding that he “knows just like every Nigerian that the President Muhammadu Buhari government approved a bailout loan to states to pay workers salaries in which Delta State is one of them, but this bailout loan should not be misconstrued by certain persons to claim that Dr. Uduaghan left a backlog of salaries to be paid.

Akpeki insist that it is wicked and malicious for certain category of persons to be peddling rumours that the Federal Government bailout loan being requested by the state government is meant to pay the salary areas left unpaid by the immediate past administration.
