The All Progressives Congress in Bayelsa State has condemned moves by Governor Douye Diri to secure N2.9bn loan to buy official vehicles.
The state House of Assembly had, during plenary on Wednesday, approved the loan request following a motion by the Leader of the House, Monday Bubou-Obolo.
The APC, in a statement by its state Publicity Secretary, Doifie Buokoribo, on Thursday described the governor’s loan request as “scandalous, unsympathetic and ungodly.” “Unfortunately, Bayelsa State is in for another long haul under an illegitimate regime that does not feel any sense of commitment to the welfare and sensibilities of the people. This cannot be the government that the people of Bayelsa State deserve. It cannot be the government the people voted for.”
