The Plateau State House of Assembly on Thursday approved Governor Caleb Mutfwang’s request for a N15 billion loan to settle a backlog of salary arrears for civil servants in the state.
The Speaker of the Assembly, Moses Sule, who read the governor’s letter during the plenary in Jos, said part of the loan would also be used to acquire agricultural inputs for farmers in the state.
He also read another letter from the governor, seeking to rejig the 2023 budget to reflect the current realities in the state.
