Sharing is their sweetest Hobby.....

AkwaIbomMan:
The money disbursed to the oil producing states has increased, 28 billion was shared last month within the oil producing states while this month has increased to 42 billion.
Hopefully the economy is reviving gradually.
Nevertheless our Governors should diversify and venture more into Agriculture and stop wholly depending on Federal allocations
