Hardship: Nigerian governors meet amid planned nationwide protest


Governors from the 36 states of the federation on Wednesday met in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja.

The governors, under the aegis of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, met at the NGF secretariat in the nation’s capital.

According to Channels TV, some of the governors started arriving at the meeting venue at about 8 pm on Wednesday.

Governors Lawal Dauda of Zamfara, Bala Mohammed of Bauchi, Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau, Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta, and Alex Otti of Abia States are already on ground.

This is as the governors of Enugu, Peter Mbah and Borno States, Babagana Zulum, sent their deputies to represent them.

The meeting may not be unconnected to the nationwide protest slated for August 1 to 10.

Recall that the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, George Akume and the National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, had earlier met with ministers over the planned protest.
