Former deputy governor of Rivers State, Engr Tele Ikuru, says he left office broke. The former deputy governor had dumped the All Progressive Congress for the Peoples Democratic Party before the presidential elections.
Ikuru, during a church service over the weekend in Andoni Local Government Area of the state, claims his former Governor Rotimi Amaechi, gave him no money before the expiration of their tenure on May 29
He said: “I served the government for seven years and seven months under Amaechi, because I was with Omehia for five months.”
“At the end of the seven years and seven months Amaechi did not think that I deserved any parting gift despite the fact that in the course of this administration, by reason of the office I occupied, I returned several monies to him valued at over N2 billion cash at different times during one assignment or another.
“By reason of my contribution, I also saved not less than N100 billion for the state government over the period. At the end of the seven years and seven months, my boss left me hard and dry, nothing and no penny to go home with.”
