Oshiomhole laments non-sharing of excess crude account

EDO State Governor Adams Oshiomhole said yesterday that the inability of the Federal Government to share excess crude account in the last 18 months had distorted his administration’s developmental plans.
Oshiomhole, who spoke when the Association of Enigies from Edo South visited him yesterday, said: “Over the past 18 months, we have not shared the excess crude account and yet, the account is empty. Sometimes, we are told they have taken money from it to fund subsidies, including subsidy on kerosene. “But your royal highnesses, there is nowhere in your domains where kerosene is sold for N50. So, in the name of subsidy, large sums of money are being stolen.
