Acting Accountant General of the Federation, AGF, Mohammed Usman, who briefed newsmen at the end of the FAAC meeting in Abuja, said the amount was lesser that N505.246 billion shared in January, which he attributed to the persistent shut down of oil installations within the month under review. T

he AGF also disclosed that the balance in the Excess Crude Account, ECA, currently stands at $183m, which is less than $249 billion recorded in the previous month by $66 million.
