“In fact, the context within which this rumour is being insinuated was what Chika Nwoba, the Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ebonyi, posted on social media. As far as I am concerned, the Ebonyi State Government, under Umahi’s watch, has never written to the House for N1bn, N5bn, N10bn or N20bn loans. This is the handiwork of desperate opposition in the state.
“The governor or the State Government has not come to the House of Assembly requesting for any form of loan approval. What I hate is this extremism in opposition. I have found out that we live in a country where when citizens suffer indigestion, they blame it on the government or the people representing them. So, it’s always easy to sell any form of falsehood that is anti-government.
“Therefore, I don’t know why actually this rumour spread on the coming to the House of Assembly for loan approval to access N33 billion, is coming from and why it’s of utmost importance to the opposition. It’s false, it’s unfounded and it’s untrue, and does not represent anything semblance of fact in Ebonyi State.“Of course, I’m the one who does the Business of the House, and I’m the bridge between the government and the Assembly.
“This is a government we all know that has little or no debt hanging on its neck as we speak. No debt from contractors, no debt from civil servants, no debt from anybody. What is the essence of such a request as being alleged by the opposition? This is not only ludicrous to say that Ebonyi Government approached the House of Assembly for N33 billion loan approval request. This rumour is false, misleading and mischievous, and it was orchestrated by the desperate opposition we have in Ebonyi State.

We were never expecting the speaker to own up to it. After all, he has been rubber stamp all the way.
