$417Million Paris Refund: Nigerian Governors Vow To Prevent Payment Of State Resources To Former Lawmaker, Ned Nwoko, Other Consultants
Nigeria Governors Forum has said it will explore all legal channels to ensure that resources belonging to states are not illegally paid to a few under the guise of payment for consultancy services. The forum comprising the 36 governors in the country said they would stand on their position regarding the $418 million Paris Club Refund and the promissory notes issued to consultants by the Ministry of Finance and the Debt Management Office (DMO). They insist that the money will not be paid to the consultants claiming the funds for the services they purportedly carried out.
