Comrade Efeotor, who doubles as the Delta State Chairman of the Nigerian Civil Servants Union, spoke at the 2019 May Celebration held in Asaba. He said:

“I returned the money because I don’t have such money in my bank account.”

He said when he saw the money in his back account; he informed the relevant government officials, who gave him the appropriate government account to pay the money back into.

While noting that he has not been appreciated for returning the money, Comrade Edeotor who is an Okpara-Inland Community in Ethiope-East Local Government Area said:

“I have satisfied my conscience and I am okay with that.”
