The Nigeria Governors' Forum has accused Attorney-General of the federation, ABUBAKAR MALAMI of alleged involvement in the controversial $418 million requests by consultants regarding the Paris Club refund.
The NGF made the accusation in a statement issued by the forum's head of media and public affairs, ABDULRAZAQUE BELLO-BARKINDO.
The controversial payment of $418 million to consultants had become a contending issue between the three tiers of government.
On Friday, a federal high court in Abuja stopped the federal government from deducting $418 million from the bank accounts of the 36 states of the federation.
BELLO-BARKINDO said the decision of the AGF to throw his weight behind the consultants who have been battling desperately to grab $418 million from the accounts of states and local governments, raises questions of propriety and the spirit of justice.
