Tensions have risen between certain governors and a minister. A group of state governors has spoken out against the creation of parallel political structures. This move is seen as a response to an initiative led by the minister. The governors' declaration was made after a private meeting. It is believed that the parallel structures could impact a future election. Further details about this development are available from the source.
The declaration was made on behalf of the governors by their chairman. The minister had recently been involved in a public disagreement with the chairman.
