An eye witness told Emerald News that Mrs. Tekoh borrowed the sum of eight hundred thousand (N800,000) naira from a money lender to clinch a government work at the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Our source said that before she died, Mrs. Tekoh complained bitterly to her family and friends that since she paid the huge sum of money to get her job in December 2020, that she has not received any salary.
Our source told this meduim that she has also complained that the money lender was on her neck since ten months she has not made an attempt of paying him.
According to our source, the widow who has five children to take care of as she did not have any helper went and borrowed the money to get the job.
