APC Governors met last night to meet over the salary crisis in some states. At the meeting, the governors called on the Federal government to a setup a bailout plan for the states that have not been able to pay civil servants their salaries for many months. Spokesperson of governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo state blamed bad economic policies of the past government for the current financial crisis facing state governments at the moment
"On the economy of the nation, we are concerned and worried by the dwindling revenue of the states which today has affected negatively on the people and the matter has become so serious that urgent action must be taken for a bailout for the state as things are not getting better. We sat down to review what steps to be taken and we are are calling for a total overhaul of the system to block all the leakages in our nations economy. We have realized that what we are going through today is as a result of poor management of our nations economy in the recent times and in fact the APC government has come to meet a near empty treasury and this is worrisome, not only to us as Governors but I think the entire nation"he said
The governors will be meeting with their PDP counterparts under their enlarged body, the Nigerian Governors Forum at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja today June 17th.

Useless governors. Most of them have private jets and still they can't pay their workers. Very soon they will blame GEJ for not paying their workers. Ole.
