The factional Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, who is also the Governor of Plateau State, Mr. Jonah Jang, has described the faction of the NGF being led by the Governor of Rivers State, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, as an extension of the All Progressives Congress.
The governors’ forum had split into two since last June after its controversial election with both Jang and Amaechi leading parallel factions.
Amaechi had met with members of his own faction of the NGF in Abuja on Monday night to deliberate on the suspension of the Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Mallam Sanusi Lamido.
The Forum condemned the suspension, which it described as a violation of the Constitution and the laws that established the CBN.
However, Jang in a statement by the Media Office of his faction, on Wednesday, berated the NGF under the leadership of Amaechi.
The statement was signed by Mr. Kassim Yakubu.
