Blame governors over unpaid salaries – Okonjo-Iweala

Image
The Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala on Wednesday cleared the FG of blame over the inability of some state governments to pay their workers’ salaries. Okonjo-Iweala, in a statement by her Special Adviser on Communications, Paul Nwabuikwu said the governors of such states should be blamed for the development in their states because they were told through the Federation Accounts Allocation Committee to make the issue of wage a priority.

The passion for Biafra is evidently running high among some Ndigbo of South East Nigeria. Since the arrest of the anchor of the fugitive Radio Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu by the State Security Service, there have been reported massive protests of members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the faction-ridden Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) for his release.More louder than the release of Kalu are the calls for the secession of the whole South East region and some parts of the South-South with predominantly Igbo speaking people from Nigeria, in other to actualize the defunct state of Biafra. The deed of the collapse of Biafra and its reintegration into Nigeria was considered a done deal, until around the last decade of the last century that its restoration was first muted amidst the heightened national question related to self-determination in Nigeria that turned many ethnic nationality groups restive.Some elements of the mostly ...
