The monthly Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) meeting ended in a deadlock on Wednesday in Abuja as officials of the Buhari government and states failed to reach an agreement.
The FAAC monthly meeting is the forum where money is shared among the federal, states and local governments.
Mahmoud Yunusa, Chairman, Forum of Finance Commissioners of FAAC, who declined to be interviewed, said in passing that they were going back to confer with the state governors.
However, Hassan Dodo, Director Press, Ministry of Finance, said the meeting would reconvene before the end of the week.
DAILY POST reports that a similar situation was recorded in March when some members of the committee walked out.
The recent disagreements has been blamed on Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
The company allegedly failed to remit all revenue accrued within the month as well as dishonouring its statutory obligations to the federation account over on time.
