Former Minister of State for Finance, Elias Mbam, yesterday resumed duties for his second tenure as chairman of the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) with a vow to go over the new revenue sharing formula in the country.

He was inaugurated last Friday with commissioners representing the states.
