Do you know why state governors are desperate to ensure that Vice President, Goodluck Jonathan, is sworn-in as Acting President? They want Jonathan constitutionally empowered so that he can order the sharing of $6.5 billion excess crude oil revenue accruing to the states.

Source told P.M.NEWS this morning that the state governors, under the umbrella of Governors Forum, want the money shared as soon as possible and have been prevailing on Jonathan to do so.

However, Jonathan was said to have turned down their request, citing the fact that he was not constitutionally empowered to do so and as such, he did not want to go to prison for committing an illegal act.

Sensing that they may lose out if something was not done immediately, the governors were said to have mooted the idea of aligning with those who want Jonathan sworn-in as Acting President, so that in that capacity, he could direct that the excess crude windfall be shared to the states.

Poor Nigerians. The time for them to speak-up again is here but they cannot look deep and see the Governors + GoodLuck + Yaradua are no good for their future!
