There is frenzy over the media,
following the publication of Nigerian governor’s phone numbers by Sahara Reporters. ,,
The news outfit on Monday, May 2, published the phone numbers of Nigeria’s state governors on Facebook and Twitter as part of its efforts to enhance governmental transparency and accountability in the country.

According to the news outfit, arming Nigerians with those contact numbers, foster greater interaction and communication between voters and their State chief executives.

 In the words of Sahara Reporters: “Governors in Nigeria enjoy some of the highest salaries in the country while their constituents and civil servants often struggle to make ends meet. It was recently revealed, for example, that 26 States owe workers’ salaries, despite bailout funds received from the federal government just a few months ago. Nigeria governorship aspirants have often campaigned on promises to improve infrastructure, education, and livelihoods of their constituents, but rarely deliver on those promises once they are in office.”
