Abdulazeez Yari, governor of Zamfara state and chairman of the Nigerian governors forum, disclosed this to journalists at the end of the meeting.

Apart from the governors of Bayelsa and Plateau states, who were represented at the meeting, the other 34 governors attended.

The amount of NLGN tax to be shared was not disclosed however.
