He cleared that 13 SUV Prado Jeeps was given to his Colleagues who visited the Governor earlier. Adding that he was not among those who visited because he was not in the State at the time.
He added that he came back the day when the cars were given out but there was no provision for him at that time.
When asked if he have problem with Governor Government, the Oyibo born Politician added that; “I don’t have any problem with the Governor. We are in cordial relationship and I have visited him many time before the pandemic.”
