According to Wike, In June N15.1 billion was generated in Rivers State but only N4.7 billion was given to Rivers State.

EkohotBlog reports that Wike stressed further that Lagos generated N46.6 billion but was given N9.3 billion. However, Kano generated N2.8 billion and got their N2.8 billion back.
