The Former Chief of Staff to the Imo State Governor and President Ugwumba Leadership Center for Africa, Uche Nwosu has asked the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to increase the subsidy palliatives for 12 million households from N8,000 to N30,000.
Nwosu made the appeal while fielding questions from newsmen during a telephone chat in Abuja, where he appealed to Tinubu to ensure there is proper monitoring, and that it should not be business as usual.
He also called on Tinubu to enact a committee that should constitute members of the Nigerian Labour Congress, National Union of Nigerian Students, market traders, farmers and non-governmental organizations, NGOs, to ensure transparency of the initiative.
