Where Does Governor Umahi Gets Money For Projects? by edogu(m): 9:24am On Oct 06, 2020
You want to know how he gets his money? Ok!
-No promotion for workers for the past five years.
-Loans from African Development Bank, Islamic Development Bank etc
-Use of Caretaker Committee Chairman both in his early terms as a Governor.
-Non-implementation of minimum wage of 18000 except for the last one of N30000.
-Non-payment of gratuities to retirees. The bailout funds which was approved by the President Buhari specifically for workers' welfare were not properly utilized. Retired workers were paid 20% of their gratuity from that fund. This is after going through excruciating pain of documentation upon documentation.
-Introduction of a cut-throat tax for Ebonyians.
- Most of the construction works are implemented using direct labour. Unfortunately, it is alleged that his company happens to be the major beneficiary.
Could you believe:
Up till this moment, university workers are yet to receive their three months salaries not minding the fact that the state has been receiving allocation from the FG.

What is the essence of building (substandard) flyover bridges when we've dilapidated school buildings that needs upgrade.

You see some of the projects currently being implemented by him are unnecessary.
-What the essence of ecumenical centre when we have an existing International Conference Center.
-What's the essence of having new stadium when you have one already.

Commendation:
-I must commend him for the road constructions currently going on the state. You need to visit other states in the South East to appreciate him.

- He has done well in promoting agriculture especially rice farming in Ebonyi State. Under his administration, sale of foreign rice in state is considered a TABOO. If you are caught, OYO will become your middle name.

- Ebonyi State was already in the map. However, most of the news were usually negative. His administration contributed immensely in burnishing the image of state
