President Muhammadu Buhari has told governors of the 36 states of the federation that the economy of the country is in a bad shape.
The President met with the Governors at the Presidential Villa, Abuja for about 30 minutes yesterday.
The chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF), Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara State, who briefed State House correspondents after the meeting which lasted for about 30 minutes, said after telling him of their mission, the president thanked them and said “the economy is in bad shape and that we have to come together, think and rethink on the way forward.”
The Governors met the President after an extended session of the National Economic Council (NEC) presided over by the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo.
Yari had told journalists that they thanked the President for releasing the Paris club funds to them without any discrimination.
The NGF met Thursday night over the lingering issue of a new minimum wage for Nigerian workers and agreed to meet with Mr Buhari to tell him their position on the matter.
