Buhari told State Governors to pay workers in time for Christmas. We hope they listened. When members of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) stepped into Aso Rock for a routine cap-in-hand session with the president this week, they were told by the host to ensure that workers are paid in time for the Christmas festivities.“For Nigerians without sources other than their salary, I am concerned that workers should be able to pay rent, school fees, buy drugs and take care of their families. I am so much concerned that people should have something to eat at Christmas”, President Muhammadu Buhari told State Governors who were in his space to collect more money. In response, the Governors asked the president to make a commitment that refunds from London/ Paris club loans will hit their bank accounts in time for Christmas and next year’s appropriation.
