Written by City Radio on October 3, 2023
In two weeks time, Anambra state government will distribute bags of rice to over three hundred thousand households in the state to cushion the effects of the removal of subsidy on petrol.
Governor Chukwuma Soludo disclosed this in his address during the celebration of the sixty third independence anniversary of Nigeria at Dunukofia local government headquarters in Ukpo.
Governor Soludo’s address was read by the Transition Committee Chairman of Dunukofia local government area, Mr. Augustine Onyemaobi.
Governor Soludo emphasized that his administration had among other things rolled out palliatives to ameliorate the sufferings of Ndi Anambra occasioned by removal of subsidy on petrol as well as increased workers’ salaries by ten percent.
He paid glowing tribute to the nation’s founding fathers who despite their imperfections negotiated a competitive federalism as a structure to leapfrog the nation’s ladder of development, adding that at sixty-three, Nigeria still shows flashes of hope for greater future.
