Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party,
LP, has said he never borrowed during his time as the governor of Anambra
State.
The former governor of Anambra State disclosed this on
Sunday during the Arise TV Town Hall meeting that hosted presidential
candidates from various political parties in Abuja.
“During my time as a former governor, I served for eight
eights. If you go to that state you will find that I never borrowed from any
financial institution in Nigeria. I have never been invited or questioned about
any missing money anywhere.
“The day I left the office, I wasn’t owing any contractor or
supplier that had delivered his project, I was not owing pension, gratuity, or
salary. I left in three banks; Access, Diamond and Fidelity, over $50 million
each for the state.
“I have never borrowed, I served faithfully, and I left
their money,” Obi said.
He added that apart from his stellar performance, he won the
award for best road network from the Federal Government and an award from Bill
Gates Foundation for best in education and health.
