List Of The Five Nigerian States That Will Benefit From The N345b EU Fund

Five states yesterday signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to access 1.5 billion euros fund for development projects.

The Academic Study European Union (ASEU) Resident Consultant for West Africa, Senator Jonathan Zwingina, who spoke at the agreement signing ceremony in Abuja, said the states paid nothing but only indicated their willingness and readiness to access the multi-billion-naira development funds.

The states, which accepted the Europe Aid Fund considered by many as a free gift are:

Adamawa
Kano
Kogi
Nasarawa
Osun.

Zwingina said the body is commencing the programme in five (5) states in the first phase, with the hope that it would serve as a model to attract other states and the Federal government to join in later.
