According to her, the revenue allocation to Federal, States and Local Government for September declined by N90.2 billion.

Adeosun attributed the decline to the loss of 45.5 million dollars in Federation export sales, despite the increase in average price of crude oil from 46.06 dollars per barrel in May to 48.4 dollars in June.

“Force Majeure was declared at Bonny Terminal and there was a subsisting Force Majeure at Forcados Terminal.

“Shut-in and Shut-down of pipelines for repairs and maintenance also contributed to the drop in revenue.

“Also, there were decreases in volume of dutiable imports receipts from Joint Venture Cash Call, Foreign Companies Income Tax and Value Added Tax,” she said.

BREAKDOWN:

N250.9 billion was from the distributable Statutory Revenue

N6.33 billion was refunded by the NNPC to the Federation

N63.4 billion from the Excess Petroleum Profit Tax account

Exchange gain of N41.4 billion and

VAT, N64.2 billion.
