By Chuks Moses<\/strong>, Awka<\/p>\n

A former governor of Anambra State (name withheld) has officially cried out vide a court affidavit that he’s presently facing excruciating financial difficulties.<\/p>\n

It’s so dire that he has not been meeting up his obligations, particularly after his losses incurred in the Nov 6, 2021 governorship election in the state.<\/p>\n

The ex-governor, a former Senator, once wielded so much in the nation’s seat of power.<\/p>\n

He attributed his very poor financial status to the huge money he spent in last year\u2019s poll in Anambra state.<\/p>\n

According to him, he would not be able to meet up complete payment of his judgment debt to a business mogul in the state, who he’s owing a substantial sum.<\/p>\n

Consequently, the\u00a0 former Senator, in his 41-paragraph affidavit said he will face extreme hardship, if compelled to pay the total judgement debt.<\/p>\n

He stated that his financial downturn and the poor state of the nation’s economy
\nwere some of the factors that now placed him in a poor financial position, reasons he could not pay the whole debt at once.<\/p>\n

The ex-governor whose tenure was very shortlived, pleaded for time to repay the loan.<\/p>\n

He offered to pay instalmentally on a monthly basis over a period of four years adding that he had already paid two million naira as part payment of the judgement debt.<\/p>\n

The ex-governor, in his motion with the supporting affidavits, is seeking an order of the court to stop further execution of the judgement-debt of the court.<\/p>\n

The judgement creditor had further filed a motion seeking order of the court to auction the properties\u00a0 recovered from the residence of the ex-governor.<\/p>\n

Further hearing on the matter has been adjourned to next month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
