Addressing newsmen on Wednesday in Umuahia, the state capital, he expressed dismay at the outbursts by Okoro, describing the statements by the latter as fake and mischievous.
“They said Mr. Okoro could not state where and when the governor made the statement.
“He probably anchored his assumption on the plans of the governor to pay May salary first, which of course is his immediate priority before tackling the humongous accumulated salary arrears left behind, which include the April salary Okoro mentioned.
“The governor understands the place and importance of payment of salary as an enabler of economic growth and development, and is therefore marshaling out the righ strategy geared towards clearing the Abia salary mess,” he said.
Ekeoma added that it has become curious that Okoro, who had earlier claimed that the past government was not owing April salary, is now talking about non-payment of same salary arrears.
He urged the public to discountenance and ignore the half-baked statements posted by the author, and see the online report as one of those fabrications aimed at drawing social media traffic.NYSC Portal
