The Federal Government on Wednesday said state governors were partly responsible for the rising rate of poverty in the country.

It blamed the state chief executives for favouring the construction of infrastructure, such as bridges and airports, in cities, rather than improving the lives of the poor.

“I think from the Federal Government’s side, we are doing our best. But instead, governors are competing to take out loans to build airports that are unnecessary when other airports are close, or governors competing to build flyovers all over the place. The commissioner stated that the state government, in its desire to make life easier for the people, organised skill acquisition training to uplift residents out of poverty.
