Speaking on the development, the Chief
Press Secretary to the governor, Onogwu
Mohammed, said the budgetary
provisions were well scrutinised before
they were approved and represented the
highest level of prudent management of
resources.
He said the funds for burial were meant
for financial assistance of families of
dead persons within the governor’s
office.
Mr Mohammed said what was provided
for burial was even grossly inadequate
given the regular need of the Governor’s
office to dole out support to families of
the bereaved.
“That is for burial expenses, which is for
the whole year,” he said. “Requests come
to the governor’s table from time to
time, for assistance of families of
bereaved staff, and he will need to assist
the families for the burial.”
He also cited an instance of the death of
the media staff in the governor’s office,
whose burial would need to be
supported.
Speaking on the other provisions, Mr
Mohammed noted that the proposals
were well articulated and transparently
considered to meet the needs of the
government in the interest of citizens.
Governor Bello is seeking reelection with
his four-year tenure in January next
year. (source: premium times;Friday 21 June,2019)
