In a video shared by Channels TV, former Edo State Governor Adams Oshiomhole disclosed that President Tinubu recently provided substantial financial support to state governors.
According to Oshiomhole, last month, President Tinubu distributed approximately 400 billion naira to the governors. Each state received a minimum of 10 billion naira, with some receiving more.
Oshiomhole specifically mentioned Edo State, where Governor Godwin Obaseki received 11.1 billion naira in addition to various grants. He also noted that the Ministry of Agriculture contributed 20 trucks of rice to the state.
Oshiomhole emphasized the significant increase in financial support compared to his tenure as governor. He stated, “When I was governor of Edo State, I was not getting more than 3.2 billion naira. Last month, my governor (Obaseki) got 11.1 billion naira plus those grants.”
