 STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE PRESIDENT TINUBU TO OGONI LEADERS: WE WILL UNLOCK THE HUMAN AND NATURAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL OF OGONILAND President Bola Tinubu says his administration is committed to unlocking the human and natural resource potential of Ogoniland, while ensuring the environmental and economic security of Nigerian communities. The President stated this on Wednesday at the State House during a meeting with members of the Supreme Council of Traditional Rulers of Ogoni, Rivers State, led by King Samuel Nnee, Gbenemene Tai Kingdom and Paramount Ruler of Kpite Tai.  The President was responding to requests presented by the Ogoni leaders at the meeting, which was also attended by former Governor of Rivers State and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Mr. Nyesom Wike; the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Engr. Abubakar Momoh; the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Mr. Heineken Lokpobiri, and the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Alhaji Mohammed Idris.

The Kaduna house of assembly has set up a committee to examine the books of the state under the administration of Nasir el-Rufai, immediate past governor of the state. 


The committee has been tasked with looking at loans, grants, and project implementation from 2015 to 2023 — the period in which el-Rufai held sway as governor.


On March 30, Uba Sani, governor of Kaduna, said his administration inherited a debt of $587 million, N85 billion, and 115 contractual liabilities from the el-Rufai administration.


Speaking during a town hall meeting, Sani also said he has not borrowed “a kobo in the last nine months”.


He, however, said the huge debt burden is eating deep into the state’s share of the monthly federation allocation.
