Charles Soludo, the governor of Anambra said has said his predecessor, Willie Obiano left between N300-400 million in the state’s accounts.
He stated this during a programme on Arise TV on Tuesday.
When asked what his administration inherited from the Obiano’s administration, Soludo said: “In terms of debt I inherited, it runs into hundreds of billions of Naira. In that of cash, we met about 300 million Naira. In fact, let’s not talk about it.
“Our treasury is funny. But I hope we shall make money henceforth to help us fulfil our promises for infrastructure and development of the state. But in terms of what I met in our coffers, my brother, it’s pathetic. Please let us not go there. God will help us”
On the fight between Mrs Ebele Obiano and Bianca Ojukwu, he said he enjoyed the comedy that has been going round since the incident.
According to him: “The comedy that has emerged from it all that I have enjoyed. There is no distraction whatsoever. I think it was meant to be. Sometimes to come there will even be some movies or comedies and even a song out of that.
“As you saw, I didn’t even notice much of what happened. I think it happened while I was going to sign the oath of allegiance. It was just like a one-second thing.
“I turned again and continued signing my thing and I have not had one minute discussing it other than the comic relief you see posted. We are intensely focused on what we must deliver to our people.”
