The Federal Government announced the appointment on Thursday of over 1,467 members, including  209 board Chairmen, to fill boards and government parastatal positions, including the NFF, National Youth Service Corps, National Institute for Sports and the Citizenship and Leadership Training Centre, which are all under the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development.

The governor, who said the All Progressives Congress Federal Government should stop addressing Nigerians as if they were kindergarten pupils, added: “Fact is: NNPC does not have rights to spend money it generates from the sales of crude oil. It does not have the rights to swap crude oil for subsidy. Where is NNPC getting the money with which it is subsidizing petrol with N26 per litre? Is NNPC spending money from the sales of crude oil that should be paid into the federation account to pay subsidy?”
