Oseloka H. Obaze (OHO) on UNIZIK 94.1 FM speaks on revenue allocation and various isuess
While appearing on the programme political digest, Mr. Oseloka H. Obaze spoke on an array of political issues. On the revenue accruing to Anambra he stated authoritatively that funds disbursed by the federal government to states, including Anambra fell from N6.3 trillion in 2015 to N5.3 trillion in 2017, representing a shortfall of only 20 %. For Anambra that amounted to some N700 million in the overall shortfall. Meanwhile, over the same period, Anambra IGR rose from N500 million monthly to to N1.3 billion monthly. Consequently, Obaze said it was factually incorrect to claim that the Anambra State government presently has less funds to work with.
