AKWA IBOM STATE BLAST!!!! FG OWES US BILLIONS OF NAIRA, COMMITTED TO FEDERAL ROADS…SEE
Christian Rowland writing for ODOGWU MEDIA... The Akwa Ibom State government, Udom Gabriel Emmanuel, has appealed for a refund of hundreds of billions of naira the Federal Government owed the state through its intervention on federal roads in the state.Speaking through the state Commissioner for Works, Mr. Akparawa Ephraim Inyang-eyen in Uyo on Monday, the governor told newsmen that the billions of naira committed to federal roads around the state during the immediate past administration have remained unremitted to the state coffers.
He said that he had presented the position of the state government to the Joint Committee of the National Assembly and Babatunde Fashola, the Works Minister, but no refund has so far been made.
He said, “If we have the luck to have some of our verified claims of what we had expended on federal roads, even part of it paid to the state government, it would have strengthened our hands to do more.”
According to him, “We have sunk in so much and we have not received anything at all and it runs into hundreds of billions of naira and they are verified debts.”
