…says Govs have received over N570bn for food security for Nigerians
Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris during the week told Nigerians to hold their state Governors accountable, saying that all of the Governors have received well over N570billion to ensure food security for Nigerians since President Bola Tinubu administration was inaugurated.
The Minister disclosed this while speaking on the “Brekete Family Show”.
On the programme, Idris opened up about a lot of hidden secrets by the Governors.
He said, “In this our constitution, the money doesn’t belong only to the Federal Government. Federal Government has their shares, state governments have their shares and local government Councils also have their own shares. Did the money of all the Governors that came together with President Ahmed Bola Tinubu increase or it did not? Everybody is saying President Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, what of the money that is going to the State and Local Government, why don’t you ask questions?
“To fix gutters, to fix small schools, to fix small hospitals, nah President Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu go do that one again? The state government is responsible for all these things. The Federal Government also supports the Governors with funds aside the monthly payment. From December till now, the Governors have received over N570billion, just additional support”, The Minister of Information, Mohammed Idris said.
The Brekete Family Show shared the video on their official instagram page on Thursday, the 1st day of August, 2024 and it stirred massive reactions from the general public.
