The former governor had claimed that Utomi and others aspiring for political offices should not to be blinded by their political ambitions as to resort to peddling falsehood against government but rather should concentrate on facts.
According to Utomi, he will prefer that “Uduaghan gives account for the Independent Power Plant, IPP project abandoned in Oghara which has gulped over N20 billion.
“Such waste is still being experienced today in the state under the current administration.”
“I am pleased to hear the former Delta State Governor, Uduaghan respond to my comments on the poor state of finances in Delta State. To my mind, it is the direction of engagement that I hope will raise the quality of public discussions and move our democracy towards better serving the people. I therefore, feel obligated to respond to the issues raised and to set the records straight for the benefit of the general public.”
But in his reaction, Uduaghan said, “It is very interesting that Prof Utomi quickly rushed to respond to me, again with tales that were full of falsehood.
“He is the one contesting to be Governor of Delta State and not me. Let people properly evaluate him.”
