N15bn owed to Zenith bank: Governor Amaechi in his valedictory address to Rivers people told announced the loans owed to various banks. I will herein reproduce the excerpts of that speech “Today, Rivers state is the least indebted state with a loan portfolio of N17.7 billion to banks owed as follows: Agriculture loan from the Central Bank of Nigeria – N2 billion; Zenith bank plc – N15.7 billion.” This was the status as at May 27th. The repayment for the loans is via an irrevocable standing order and so will have reduced as at today

Amaechi, who was earlier honoured with an award by the UN for his development of the education sector, was honoured with a UN diplomatic passport to further appreciate his genuine channeling of resources ‎to the development of human race
