I am not here to defend Engr Prince Arthur Eze but correct an erroneous impression on the ongoing altercations between the Ukpo billionaire and govt ndi APGA.
Engr Arthur Eze simply accused gov Obiano of misappropriating LG funds and said that the governor has not attracted any industry despite the huge allocation to the LGAs.
The supporters of the governor turned around to abuse Arthur Eze. Most of the governor’s boys asked Arthur Eze why didn’t he build industries too.
The wrong impression I want to correct is this;
Arthur Eze is an individual. His money is his own sweat. It belongs to him and him alone. He decides how to use his money and what to do with it. You have no right to decide how he must use his personal money. If he chooses to build industries, fine. If he decides to fix it for his children children, it is no one’s business. How he deploys his wealth is entirely at his discretion.
The LG funds Engr Prince Arthur Eze talked about and said the governor squandered doesn’t belong to the governor. It is a public fund. It belongs to everybody.
The Ukpo billionaire has every right to question the use of the LGA fund.
If Arthur Eze takes up any leadership position tomorrow, you can question how and what he uses public fund for.
If Obiano team has no answer or clarification as what Arthur Eze said about the present APGA govt, let them keep quiet and know that they have failed the people and prepare to be voted out in 2021.
