Rivers State governor and Chairman, Nigeria Governors’ Forum, NGF, Chubuike Rotimi Amaechi has called for a meeting of the forum.
The statement also confirmed that governors Jonah Jang of Plateau State; Godswill Akpabio of AkwaIbom; Gabriel Suswam of Benue; Henry Seriake Dickson and other thirty-one State governors have been invited for the meeting.
Despite Amaechi winning the election last month by beating Plateau State Governor, Jonah Jang by 19 votes to 16 votes, Jang had gone ahead to lead a faction of NGF as he claimed that he was the consensus candidate of 19 governors prior to the election.
While the Amaechi group was yet to call a meeting, the Jang faction called a meeting of NGF last week, Monday 17th June, 2013, which was only attended by 16 governors.
But the Amaechi’s invitation for tomorrow’s meeting issued by a Press Officer of the NGF Secretariat, Chidimma Onyenalim reads: “There will be a meeting of Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) on Wednesday 26th June, 2013. Time: 8.00pm prompt. Venue: Rivers State Governor’s Lodge, No. 5 Justice Mohammed Bello Street, Asokoro, Abuja.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteTheir heaven has been built here on earth, if not they will be very happy to use their good office for the ills of the people. Many of them have never felt the joy of helping before.
Many don't know why the Devil instruct most of his followers not to help,, Not only does joy comes from helping,it also brings blessing of GOD whether you know GOD or not.
