Statistics obtained from the organisation on Sunday showed that the domestic debt stock of the Federal Government as of June 30 stood at N8.39tn or $42.63bn.

The domestic debts of the 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory Administration, on the other hand, stood at N1.69tn ($10.86bn) at the end of June.

On the external sector, the country’s debt stock was put at $10.32bn (N2.03tn) at the end of June.

The DMO gave a hint that the actual domestic debt of the states could be higher because the figure only reflected the position of the indebtedness of the states as of December 31, 2013.
