Please, is this money generated by the federal government and dashed to ekiti or is it not their constitutional entitlement, just like the way the federal government is given money generated from different resources from different states, like oil from the Niger delta.

Ask Google!

Despite not having anything significant adding to the federation account, the things he adds are noise, thuggery and fraud.

That's all! Spot-on

So we should hail Buhari for doing what he ought to do. Is ekiti not part of Nigeria again?

Adminisher:
Fayose s the most empty Governor in Nigeria. He is actually worse than two governors in the North and one in the middle belt that are in the extremely BAD category.

I have been watching this guy for some time. Completely lacking ideas or executive ability. Without Buhari who gives him an avenue to be visible, he is nothing

the last time i cheched he was the number citizen of ekiti state(the largest producer of professors)

So na professors dey add money to the country's treasury abi? Why can't those professors increase his IGR....

I do not exchange words with kids suffering mental impotence. You are very privileged to have the opportunity to interact with me, I will advise you use it wisely and cautiously. The fact that we are on thesame online forum does not make us equals, be warned.

Is noise is the reasons why you are not in chains. Like it or not, Fayose is a strong tower that cannot b destroyed by Buhari led Al-queeda

Why should he thank Buhari?
Was that how Fashola, Amaechi, Aregbesola etc were thanking Jonathan for giving them the allocation for the people of their states?

What senseless comparison is this? Don't you people reason with your heads? Bail out or support is different from statutory allocations. Google what statutory means and revert back

What is contribution of Osun and Edo states to the country?

greenermodels:
the money is their right and not a gift, this news article sounds more like a sponsored article, it's too one sided, no balance at all.

Including the bail out too? Or did Fayosr not receive bail out for salaries and other supports from FG, that has nothing to do with statute?

I believe that you are too young to be senile like that tenant in Aso Rock.
Not so?

Bihari is a gentleman

This looks like a sponsored article...laying the foundation for Ekiti elections in 2018.

There will be many more publications like this aimed at showing the Ekiti people that Buhari cares about them, even if they didn't vote for him in 2015. More publications will demonise Fayose, and the end goal will be to make the people forget the hardship and debt accrued by the Fayemi administration and vote APC.

Remember this post.

Jibril659:
Dummy governor of ekiti state

FAYOSE WILL SURELY NOT GET THAT MONEY. IT WILL BE RELEASED TO HIS SUCCESSOR ONLY

And what contributions have the professors brought to the table to end this economic recession?

Edo is an oil producing state.. though not as much as other Niger delta state... can't speak abt osun but ekiti is zero.

Although the Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose regularly bashes the Federal Government, the financial solvency of the state has depended largely on the Buhari presidency which recently approved an N8.8b share of the Paris loan refund to the state.

Contrary to claims by the governor, the Federal Government has indeed been supporting the state government in meeting its financial obligations including paying its workers.

The state government has received financial support in different forms, from the Federal Government, since the inception of the Buhari administration.

The findings also indicated that the state government’s improved financial position was made possible by recently received N8.8 billion from the Federal Government as part of its share of the Paris loan refund.

This is in addition to the budget support facility given by the Federal Government to some states of the federation, which the state government has consistently been receiving.

Findings also reveal that the state spends an estimated N2.6 billion on salaries, subvention, pension and gratuity monthly which would not have come from internally generated revenues.

According to a report published recently by National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Ekiti state is one of the states with the lowest internally generated revenue, which was put at N3.3 billion yearly.

From the federation account, the state receives an average of about N1.6 billion monthly.

Based on available data, suffice it to say that the state would not have been able to meet its obligation without other assistance which came mostly from the federal government.

Data from the Ministry of Finance indicate that the Paris Club Loan is merely a fraction of the kind of support the state gets from the Federal Government.

Under the fiscal sustainability plan, the state got N1.3 billion in the first three months then N1.1 billion in subsequent months since it began in June, 2016.

A recent comment published by Sahara Reporters confirms the fact that the state government has largely been dependent on the Federal Government to meet most of its financial obligations, contrary to claims by the governor.

According to the comment, “Ekiti state was once a proud producer of Igbemo Rice. Incidentally, Igbemo Ekiti is the next town to Fayose’s village, Afao Ekiti.

“So, he should tell Nigerians why his government of stomach infrastructure has failed to revitalize the Igbemo rice factory which was once a pride of the Ekiti people.’’

The author of the comment queried why governor Fayose had failed to utilize the state’s comparative advantage in agriculture.

He posed pertinent questions about the governor’s failure to partner with other states to boost agricultural production in the state.

The author asked: “Has the governor of Ebonyi state not increased rice production to the extent that the state is selling rice to other states right now?’’

“Is the lousy governor of Ekiti state not aware that the government of Governor Akin Ambode of Lagos State decided to partner with Governor Bagudu of Kebbi state for the production of rice?

“Is Mr. Fayose not aware that the partnership has created opportunities for Lagosians to buy a bag of rice in Lagos at N12, 000 while it is sold at N20,000 in Fayose’s land of empty stomach infrastructure?’’

On their part, workers in the state have at different forum in 2016 appealed to the governor to use funds released by the Federal Government to clear their salary arrears.

Nigerian main stream media have been bought over.... When a governor rehabilitate a road people praise him, when a president allocate fund to state government we sing to high heaven... I ask .... Is it their to carry out their duties as stipulated by the Constitution?

The media now makes it look like Buhari gave Ekiti state some fund from his personal account .. Black race and foolishness are like 5&6

Constitutional entitlement from a president that cares. Would anyone from Ekiti as a whole try half of the rubbish (he's trying with PMB) with OBJ? Hell No!
If the 8.8 was slashed to 2.2 would heaven fall? NO. Sometimes you act responsibly not because you want to but because you need to. A lot of kids that are growing are the everywhere looking at you.

What is the contribution of Katsina state where Buhari claims?

What moral right does a northener whose governors are the most useless in Nigeria have to abuse Fayose

Even the dumbest of idiots would know that FG's responsibilities to Ekiti Govt are being met also as an evidence to be used against him later. If I knew anyone that has direct access to this man, I'd surely beg them to beg him to beg his advisers to leave him alone.

ddippset:
He must have used the money to buy fufu and roasted corn for ekiti people. BTW if I was fayose, I'd be worried, I'd be very worried. Despite my antagonistic approach to the president he still does this. It shows that his fuccck ups will be treated maximally when he drops.

How did Ebonyi do it? How is Kebbi doing it? What is Ekiti doing? I just wonder what will happen to Ekiti if Buhari did what Lagos suffered under Obj to Ekiti? We will have former Ekiti state because the stae will extinct.

How is this a news? This is there right as long as Nigeria is Still practicing the present system of government

I guess you're too young to suffer from comprehension challenges. Not so?

I don't want to call you dumb, but you're acting like one.

I've told you to look up couple meanings, which simply may be beyond your comprehension.

Original post says lots of things like

1)
Contrary to claims by the governor, the Federal Government has indeed been supporting the state government in meeting its financial obligations including paying its workers.

Note that support is not statutory ( that's if you understand)

Fayose kept mute and some of such numerous supports have been received and continuously been received.

Calling out fayose, would continually pretend that 'nothing go came out of Nazareth' isn't a bad idea or was it?

So, my post, I hope he can say thank you to Buhari for the first time, should help you out of your misery
