It is quite unfortunate that three respected Councillors (Hon Freeborn Nyesom, Hon Barr Godspower Erum and Hon Churchill Wali) of the Ikwerre Legislative Assembly could allow themselves to be used against the workaholic Chairman of Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State, Hon Engr Samuel Nwanosike (JP), in order to score cheap political points.

The media inveigh against the Chairman by the three Councillors that he borrowed money from Access Bank and thereafter gave the bank plots of land as compensation or sold some plots of land belonging to the Ikwerre Local Government Council without the knowledge of the Legislative Assembly is totally untrue and misleading.

To put the record straight, Hon Nwanosike did not borrow any money from Access Bank or sold any piece of land to the bank, rather the LGA leased out part of the Council premises to Access Bank so as to build its office for the betterment of the staff and people of the LGA.

The leasing process passed through the Legislative Assembly and was approved. The proceed was thereafter paid into the Council account.

Access Bank does not need to buy land in Isiokpo. Their GMD/CEO is from there. He will get free land there, any day, anytime.
