Gov. Hope Uzordimma of Imo and Chairman of the forum said this while addressing speaking newsmen at the end of its closed-door meeting which ended last Wednesday night in Abuja.

The PGF is an umbrella body of state governors elected on the All Progressives Congress (APC) platform.

Uzordinma described the meeting as successful, saying it discussed ongoings in the part and other national issues.

“The current hardship occasioned by the price increase on both food, petroleum products and cost of living is being addressed.

“The sub national government is working with the Federal Government to address the development,”Uzordinma said.

He added that the National Executive Council (NEC) would discuss further on how to address the development to lessen the burden on the citizenry when it meets.

The PGF chairman assured that the governors would effectively utilise their federal allocation in the best interest of the people.

He said the governors would also ensure that the country’s economy was protected and our sovereign margin was not tempered with in the international market but improve upon.

Uzordinma said the governors received in good faith, the recent resignation of Sen. Abdullahi Adamu, the party’s National Chairman and Sen. Iyola Omisore, iNational Secretary, saying their resignation was voluntary.

He added that the governors respect their actions and commend their wisdom, saying they had done well and served the party well.

“We are happy with their services and they are happy too; we are in support of their actions and they would continue to be commended.

“We respect and recognise the services they have rendered to our great party, their resignations have also been accepted by the leadership of the party.

“We now have an acting national chairman and acting national Secretary,” Uzordinma said, adding that contrary to speculations, the APC was united and had no crisis within its ranks and file.

Some of the governors at the meeting include: Gov. Dapo Abiodun of Ogun, Umar Bago (Niger), Francis Nwifuru (Ebonyi), Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq (Kwara), Fr. Hyacinth Alia (Benue), Una Sani (Kaduna); Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos), Mai Mala Buni (Yobe) and Dikko Radda (Katsina) among others.
