I’m not your problem, Okonjo-Iweala tells Amaechi

Minister of
Finance Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala
has told Rivers
State Governor
Rotimi
Amaechi to
look in the
mirror, if he
wants to
identify the
source of his
problems.
Responding to the claims that she is responsible
for the delay in the approval of the state's water
project by the African Development Bank, the
minister yesterday fired back at the governor,
saying that "it is sad that a governor can engage in
this kind of undignified charade.
"The question that fair minded people must ask is
Amaechi the only governor the ministry deals with?
Why is he the only one negatively obsessed with
Okonjo-Iweala?
"The ministry has a good relationship with many
governors and deals with issues concerning their
states based on professionalism and equity."
The governor's statement that she is responsible
for the delay of the water project "is a complete
fabrication."
"As the ministry had previously explained, the
project is going through the processes and must
get final approval from the ADB board and the
Federal Executive Council before I can sign it. So
the idea that I have refused to sign it is
preposterous and inaccurate."
