FG’s N250m Gift: MOMTA Boss Assures Even Distribution
The chairman, Mile
One Market Traders Association (MOMTA), Deacon Kenneth Eze, has reassured that every member of the association will receive fair share of the N250 million largesse given to the association by the Federal Government recently.
Eze who spoke with The Tide in his office in Port Harcourt, said that the cash gift which came to the association through cheque were yet to be cleared.
He debunked the rumour that the executive of the association were adopting a method with which to siphone the money for their personal gains and that of their cronnies,
According to him, “The welfare of the traders is paramount to me, and I am determined that as soon as the money is cleared and received by the executive, every members of the association will have their share”. The chairman, however advised those peddling rumours about the cash gift to be careful of what they say that is not truth urging them to always verify and get the right information instead of misinforming the public.
On whether he will be willing to go for a second term, as his tenure winds up next year, the chairman said that yet, but that all he is faced with now is on how to deliver good leadership to the association.
It would be recalled that the chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Adamu Muazu on his visit to Port Harcourt, made the donation of N250 million to association on behalf of he president.
