In Rivers, Governor Siminalayi Fubara has dismissed claims that his administration has been borrowing heavily to fund governance.
Speaking during the inauguration of the 11.8km Okehi-Umuola-Eberi road which links Etche and Omuma council areas, Fubara said the only loan obtained by his administration was a 200 billion naira facility earmarked for the construction of the 50km dual carriageway ring road project.
He challenged concerned persons to verify his clarification with the Debt Management Office (DMO).
Fubara assured that he would soon execute additional projects for the people of Etche and Omuma, including the completion of other roads and healthcare facilities.
The inauguration of the Okehi-Umuola-Eberi road is part of 14 projects slated for commissioning and groundbreaking ceremonies between December 4 and December 21 under Governor Fubara’s leadership.
