Edo State Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has chided critics saying ongoing projects in the state were being executed with the $75m World Bank loan.
Oshiomhole said his administration was yet to spend the loan.
He spoke while inspecting projects at the Upper Siluko Road, the eight Kilometre underground Storm Water drainage at Igbinaduwa linking Textile Mill Road, 2nd East Circular Road dualization project and Erediauwa Road Project, including 25 adjoining streets roads.
The governor said his administration would provide dividends of democracy for the greatest number of Edo people until his last day in office with or without oil money.
Oshiomhole said he was moved to do more because of prayers from the hearts of old men and old women in the state.
He said the ongoing projects were not conceived because of upcoming election but because it was his conviction that government must work for the people.
He said, “For us working for the person is a way of life, it is in the blood. It is in the gene of our party because we derive our essence from our bond with the very ordinary people.”
“And you can see that by our statement we have made a conscious choice that to deliver the greatest good to the greatest number we must look at where the ordinary people are and touch their life. People who cannot do a petition, those are the people we represent.”
”The much talked about 75million dollars we have not touched it, so this not the result of any loan.”

Hope it is not from there you took the dollars you used to marry because senator Dino Melaya said some of the governors pay dowries in dollars.
