Falling Oil Price: Fayemi Says States May Get Zero FAAC Allocations In June by nairavsdollars(f): 7:46am On Apr 22, 2020
Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti state on Tuesday said states may get zero statutory allocations from Federation Accounts Allocation and Fiscal Commission (FAAC) in June this year owing the drastic fall in the price of crude oil.

Fayemi, who is the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum (NGF) also said the Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Mrs Zainab Ahmed had disclosed that President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the withdrawal of 150 million dollars from the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) Stabilization Fund to support the June 2020 FAAC disbursement.

The governor, who spoke on Channels Television programme, ‘Politics Today’ however said he was not aware that the fund will be released in the next 72 hours.

According to him “I am not aware of any stabilization fund that has been released in 72 hours. What I heard from the Honourable Minister is that $150m has been approved by Mr. President to augment the June FAAC allocation which is likely to be very, very reduced, probably zero”.

“You have seen the difficulty that oil prices are experiencing around the world. So, it is a no-brainer. You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to know that you may not even have N200b to share as FAAC in June”.

“ We are talking of June because oil is sold three months ahead. So, the ones that have been sold before now, they have given us that it is not as bad as it is”.

“But we have FAAC tomorrow, so we will see what comes out of it. I don’t have any expectation that it will be robust as we have experienced in the last three months of the year”.

With the fall in oil price and the Covid-19 pandemic, there are fears among workers of the 36 state governments over the ability of their governments to continue to pay their salaries.

Fayemi, however, said Ekiti state is not owing to any salary at the moment and hopes it will continue paying as at when due in the future.

I'd even be the happiest person if our Oil dries up so we can grow up as a Nation. Let me see how our politicians, especially our Senators would survive with their oversized allowances.

At this point, all I can advice everyone is to please factor in How you can take your businesses online to the international community to ensure your economy doesn't depend on Nigerian economic blueprint. By so doing the rise of Dollar will be your gain

Anyway, I will Design a company Logo for 2k Only or Website for your Product or Company. Info below

That is the reason why you all should put your heads together now, to ensure that does not happen. Our excess crude account has been depleted already. The whole world is struggling. Consider putting the available funds in such that would enable us as a nation to float. Rather than putting billions in Dangote, maybe fund Innoson to help produce ventilators for the rest of the world. We should identify the needs of the world at this peculiar time, project or estimate what the world will need in months to come, and evaluate if we have the resources to meet that need. This is the definition of being proactive.

It makes absolutely no difference.

When the matter set, na government go tell banks to freeze accounts of all known thieves just to see money to even take buy fuel for their cars and generators.

All the thieves in power go begin donate their loots.

This is the best revolution to take place.

If death comes now, where will you find yourself?

It is not about your religion or belief. It is about the assurance that you have hope for eternal rest.

Jesus said..." Anyone who believes in me, even though he dies, i will raise him up on the last day"

Jesus repeated that twice.

I am sure of my destination after breathing my last.
You?

If you're not dead sure, then come to Jesus today and accept him as your Lord and Savior.

It is your soul. Don't gamble with it.

Are U worried about your present state of life ?

Are U a carrier of glorious potentials without knowing what to do in life ?

Are U facing hell on earth in your marriage or marital life ?

Do U feel U have been kept on hold or seems your life is going round a circle?

Is the devil tormenting, oppressing, depressing, afflicting, suppressing, or manipulating you with any form of discomfort in life?

Even If the devil has something on U, u can draw on the mercy of God to receive forgiveness of sin and deliverance from any habit or hold satan has on U.

Accept Jesus Christ, surrender to him, rededicate yourself to Him and make Him your personal Lord and Saviour. Accept Him now, for next minute may be too late..
This is the time to rededicate your life to Christ.

Make this confession loudly. Father! Forgive me, I'm sorry, please help me, I love U, I need U, hold me Jesus!!!, my heart, my soul please take control of it right now. Lead me in your ways and teach me your path so I can forever abide in your words. Save me Lord, have mercy on me and forgive my sins in Jesus name. Amen

Thank U for saving me and thank U because U have deliver me from the bondage of sins, I know my sins has been forgiving, I give U all the praise in Jesus name.

This is the real game changer. We have been preaching diversify the economy for over a decade now, but nope, everybody is looking for quick money, no long term investment.

This ones even started looking for oil in Chad basin, katsina and all, spending huge funds that would have overhaul our manufacturing/agricultural sectors.

Now, Russia and S/Arabia have decided to crash oil price to less than $1/barrel.

If this war between those folks continue, am sorry to say, we are doomed.

But I believe that we would survive.

Both the fed and state government are lazy buffalos. They couldn't think aside the box on ways to get more foreign exchange other than the oil. Yet bubu in his ineptness lumped and tag the ever resilient Nigeria youths as lazy. Tell me who's more lazy now grin grin

It is no longer zero if FG is going to pull 150 million dollars to support na. But u governors must also sacrifice by cutting cost of governance this period so that u can meet up with salary obligations. And the governors should kindly tell presido that this prolonged lockdown will make things worse for state governments so he should lift it partially let healthy ppl return to work.

Nobody should say GEJ government is the most corrupt government in Nigeria history again, because Buhari government has set a new record in corruption! When OBJ was president, crude oil price was selling around same price it is now that oil prices have crashed during this current Buhari civilian dictator regime. Almost the same amount of population, same number of States, same government system, yet under OBJ regime we didn't die, Nigeria's economy grew, he built infrastructure, and delivered "some" good dividends of democracy without borrowing. And all states were paid their allocation (except Lagos of course which was political but the money was there, just withheld, not like money was not there). But now, this corruption personified government are already telling us states won't get allocation soon because oil prices have fallen to the same level it was during OBJ government. Who's fooling who? Bunch of incompetent thieves. They can't even tell intelligent lies, but will be telling foolish lies that even a 2 year old can figure out how stupid their lying is
