The Rivers State
Governor, Nyesom Wike has described the claim by the former
Governor Rotimi Amaechi that he left close to 10 billion naira
in the state treasury as tissues of lies, stressing that if he left what he
claimed, how come Civil Servants, Pensioners, Footballers, Contractors and more
were owed by his government.
The Governor said even students
on state scholarship program overseas were almost sent out of the classroom
over unpaid fees, adding that the issues were not all about empty treasury
alone, as properties in government houses, Port Harcourt were allegedly looted
before the handover date of May 29th 2015.
It will be recalled that
Governor Wike had consistently maintained that he met a completely
empty treasury when he took over as governor.
