Nyako Left N12.8bn Debt - Adamawa Acting Gov SaysAlhaji Ahmadu Fintiri, the Acting Governor of Adamawa State, has said that the administration of ex-governor Murtala Nyako left behind a massive debt of about N12.8bn without any infrastructure to show for it. This was revealed by Fintiri when former members of the Adamawa State House of Assembly, led by Ambassador James Barka, paid him a congratulatory visit at the Government House, Yola. According to Punch report, Fintiri explained that the removal of Nyako's administration was simply democracy in action and it was done to save the state. The acting governor promised to lay a solid foundation for the administration coming after the transition period to build upon. "With the support I’m getting from the people of Adamawa State as well as the People’s Democratic Party in Adamawa and the Federal Government, and with God on my side, within the 90 days transitional period, citizens will feel the impact of government more than in the last seven years," he said.
