“And as a leader of the state, it is necessary to be a blessing in the homes of everyone in this state. I cannot say that I’m doing this because it is not my personal money, it is the money of the state that I am using, which I was elected to manage.
“And I have resolved with the caucus and principal officers of government, since I came in, that workers in Ebonyi State should have something to celebrate.
“I’m going to have meeting with local government chairmen, and every worker in this state must get N100,000 as Christmas gift, including a bag of rice.”
