The Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) held an extended meeting late Wednesday night in preparation for Thursday’s National Executive Council (NEC) session. The agenda focused on crucial topics such as local government autonomy, the excess crude account, and petroleum profit tax.

The governors convened at 9 p.m., shortly after a closed-door discussion with President Bola Tinubu and the Council of Traditional Rulers at the Presidential Villa in Abuja. The meeting, chaired by Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRasaq, took place at the NGF Secretariat in Maitama.

Key officials present included Adeola Oluwatosin Ajayi, Acting Director General of the Department of State Security; Namadi Sambo, former Vice President and Chair of Delegation at the African Medical Excellence Center; and Mele Kyari, Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPC Limited.

The meeting’s agenda covered updates from the recent United Nations General Assembly, discussions on the excess crude account (ECA), reconciliation of petroleum profit tax (PPT) and royalties accounts, and matters concerning the Transmission Company of Nigeria’s ground rent billing. Highlights included the Chairman’s opening remarks, a review of the previous meeting’s minutes, ongoing legal cases involving the NGF, and leveraging $825 million to enhance Nigeria’s agri-food sector, along with presentations from notable figures like former Vice President Sambo, DG Ajayi, and GCEO Kyan.
