The United States Embassy in Nigeria last Tuesday raised serious concerns over the spending habits of some Nigerian state governors, accusing them of extravagance and poor management of public funds.
In a report it released, the embassy highlighted that many governors have been allocating huge sums of money towards the construction and renovation of government houses, even as millions of Nigerians face severe economic difficulties.
The report noted that while President Bola Tinubu has urged Nigerians to endure the current economic challenges brought about by government policies, some governors have not been sharing the burden of sacrifice.
