The Presidency says the governors elected on the platform of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) propose no solutions to nation’s challenges in the face of COVID and global economic downturn.
Malam Garba Shehu, the President’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, said this in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja.
Shehu said the governors ”instead, they grasp for more money and mourn their lack of access to social media to spread falsehoods and hate”.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the presidential aide was reacting to an earlier communique issued on Monday by the PDP governors at the end of their meeting in Uyo, Akwa Ibom.
The governors condemned the way and manner some government agencies like the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) have been managed under Buhari’s administration.
”Similarly, the governors appeal to each other for more involvement of States in mining and geophysical activities within their States.
The presidential aide also condemned the PDP governors’ stance on the suspension of the activities of Twitter in the country.
He noted that the governors had been using the Twitter platform to spread fake news and invented stories.
