Abia’s Best Interest Association Convenor Eze Chikamnayo had earlier discredited the claim by Governor Otti during a broadcast interview on TVCnews, tasking him to provide the locations and names of the schools across the state.
The video of the interview started trending online on Wednesday, alongside a video showing one of the buildings Governor Otti allegedly claimed to have rehabilitated into a smart school, still in its deformed state, as Nigerians compared other smart school projects across the country.
TVC in this article gathered some of the questions asked by Nigerians, especially on X:
