Members of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum have called on the Minister of
Finance, who is also the Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Dr. Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala, to resign her appointment if she knew she would not be
able to adhere strictly with the Appropriation Act 2013.
They said the non-compliance with the revenue projections of the Federal Government 2013 Budget was also a direct breach of the provisions of the Appropriation Act, 2013.
These decisions were part of the resolutions of the Governor Rotimi Amaechi-led NGF, which met in Abuja on Tuesday evening.
States which were represented by their governors at the meeting were those of Rivers, Niger, Kwara, Osun, Ekiti, Ogun, Adamawa, Oyo, Lagos, Sokoto, Jigawa, Kano and Zamfara while deputy governors of Edo, Borno and Nasarawa states represented their governors.
The governors also called for the immediate dissolution of the Economic Management Team.
