Meanwhile, Wada has advised members of the state House of Assembly to expedite  action on the passage of taxation bill to enable the state to improve on its internally generated revenue.

Speaking during the third year celebration of the state’s 5th Legislature of the Assembly in Lokoja, the governor said that the passage of the bill had become imperative to shore up  the dwindling federal allocation accruing to the state.
