with her.

University of Ibadan and pioneer graduates of Ignatius Ajuru University
of Education, on Saturday was quoted as saying that his problem with
Mrs. Jonathan started after he rejected her demand.
“I
refused to give them money in Abuja because if I do that, I won’t be
able to carry out any development project or finish the road from
Rumuolumeni to Rumuepirikom.
“The
quarrel between me and the wife of the President is because she said I
should bring your money, Rivers people, money and share with her,” the
governor reportedly said.
