The President gave the order while meeting with the Nigerian Governors Forum, NGF, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Buhari’s Personal Assistant on New Media, Basir Ahmad, made the disclosure in a tweet via his twitter handle while the meeting was ongoing.
According to Ahmad, “President Muhammadu Buhari during the meeting with state governors, charged them to ensure that they pay all the salaries owed workers before Christmas.”
*Orders them to pay?I pray they do just that because i still remember that most workers went home without Xmas salaries last year!!!
Gbam!

The tweet reads 'charged' but the headline reads 'orders'. Of course he cannot order state governors to do or not to do a thing, because that will be ultra vires. He can only encourage and provide guidance and support where necessary.
ReplyDeleteNice one. Hope he released money to them because this Apc government is all talks and no action.
ReplyDeleteSo they have to be told to do that?
