Aides of former Anambra State Governor, Willie Obiano have urged the incumbent, Charles Soludo to pay their severance packages.
The aides made the plea during a reunion meeting held in Awka on Sunday.
According to the aides, no fewer than 42 appointees of Obiano have died within two years of leaving office.
They lamented that their colleagues died without receiving their severance allowances and called on Soludo to facilitate the payment of their severance allowances.
Obiano had, a month ago, made the same call, insisting that the payment and appointment of some of his aides into Soludo’s government were part of the condition under which Soludo was supported to succeed him.
The Anambra State Deputy Governor, Onyekachukwu Ibezim, a former political appointee under Obiano and who was at the function urged the former aides not to despair but to trust in God.
He said even Governor Soludo was a former appointee to Obiano, so there was no reason to panic.
