The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has ordered the removal of the state joint accounts from banks that gave unauthorised loans to some local government chairmen in the state.
Wike gave the directive while swearing in the Chairman of the Asari-Toru Local Government Area, Mrs. Alaso Obi, at the Government House, Port Harcourt, on Wednesday.
The statement said Wike directed the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice to take legal action against the defaulting banks, saying both the banks and the councils that defaulted would suffer the consequences of the illegality.
