Speculation over governor’s massive wealth

A Governor is the talk of town over his seemingly sudden source of wealth. The county chief who is doing his second and last term in office is swimming in so much cash that he is said to have acquired a helicopter and high-end vehicles.

He has also acquired several properties in plush residential estates in the city. Those who have interacted with the politician say that of late he is also very philanthropic; a character trait he did not exhibit a few months ago.

Speculations is rife that the county boss is being funded by another influential politician who is eyeing the presidency, with the agreement that he will return the same favour during the 2022 general election by mobilizing his community to vote for him.
