The former Governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi made shocking revelations on how most states are run.
He made this revelation while speaking at The Platform, a program organised by Covenant Christian Center.
Mr. Obi also called on Nigerians to stop celebrating criminality, adding that there is enough money for development in Nigeria.
Obi, who spoke on the topic: Cutting cost in governance, said he saved over N75b for Anambra state.
Obi said he saved $50m and N7b in Access bank, $55m and N10b in Fidelity bank, and $155.4m in Diamond bank.
According to him, the over-bloated spending habit of most governors is what is causing poverty.
Obi also added that the states can still function on their income and still save money.
The former Governor called on Nigerians to question the commitments of the leaders who they voted into office.
He also slammed religious leaders for not speaking up against corruption, especially when they know the person has not viable source of income.
Speaking on calls to borrow money to boost the economy, Obi said “There is nothing wrong with borrowing. The crisis we are facing is that we do not know what we are using the money we are borrowing for.”
