The Acting Chairman of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers State, Tony Okocha says the state ia sitting on a keg of gun powder that will soon explode if the state governor does not call himself to order.
Okocha in a statement said, Gov.Fubara is running the state without a budget and that it amounts to gross misconduct.
Part of the statement reads,
“They started it; a few of them were running to Mr. President to intervene in the matter. And Mr. President, as busy as his schedules are, called Rivers people together for a peace meeting. I was there at the meeting with other stakeholders, the governor agreed to implement all the agreements. Now, the way he rushed to present the budget before four assembly members, he also went back and re-presented before the complete house. It is not a difficult task.
“As it stands now, Rivers is sitting on a keg of gun powder that will soon go into flames if the governor does not call himself to order. Running Rivers State without a budget amounts to gross financial misconduct.
“There must be something he is hiding because that is blatant abuse of law and a gross disrespect for the President because it is contained in the eighth agreement he signed to.”
