The gross revenue of N726.772 billion received for the month was lower than the N766.772 billion received in the previous month by N40.000 billion. This was due to a decrease in Crude Oil Export for the month as a result of several operational issues and safety challenges in Bonga, Brass, Bonny and Qua Iboe Terminals.
The meeting was attended by the commissioners of Finance from the 36 States and Abuja.
