A day earlier, the Minister had tweeted, using the same handle, denying ever collecting pension from the Rivers State Government.
The minister said “I have never requested for or collected one kobo as pension from R/State Govt. If offered, I will politely decline & request that the money should be given to Rivers State pensioners. I do not believe that I should receive pension as ex-gov of R/State while serving as a minister”
