Makinde, who also doubles as the Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF), conveyed his rebuttal in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Suleiman Olarenwaju, in Ibadan on Thursday, February 22, 2024.
Commenting on the food crisis in the country a couple of days ago, Akpabio revealed that governors recently received the said amount from the Federal Government to ensure that food is available across the country.
He added that the funds, which emanated from the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), were outside the states’ statutory revenue allocations from the federation account.
