Governor of Rivers state, Rotimi Amaechi has accused the Finance Minister, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala of stifling a loan facility granted to the state for provision of potable water by the World Bank and the African Development Bank (ADB).
Amaechi, who was speaking during the 2nd Retreat of a faction of the Nigeria Governors' Forum he chairs, wondered why the minister "who by international standards, is recognised around the world has refused to sign off for us to provide water for Rivers people".
