President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday charged state governors to seek for ways to improve their Internally Generated Revenues (IGR).
The first term administration of President Buhari had released series of bailout funds to state governments to meet up with their financial obligations in the face of economic recession.
Buhari spoke while inaugurating the new National Economic Council (NEC), with tenure from 2019 to 2023 at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The Council is chaired by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. While urging the new NEC to press forward with key initiatives, Buhari asked them to specially focus on security, education health and agriculture.
