 In a bid to create a forum for dialogue towards resolving issues surrounding the petrol subsidy removal across the states, the National Economic Council has constituted an ARHA committee to engage with the leadership of labor unions. The decision was reached at the 135th meeting of NEC, chaired by the vice president, Senator Kashim Shatema in Abuja on Thursday. The committee comprises the Nigerian Governor's Forum Chairman Abdul Rahman Abdul Rizak, Governor of Anambar State Chukuma Soludo, Chairman of Progressive's Governor's Forum Hope Uzurima of Imo State, PDP Governor's Forum Chairman Bala Mohamed of Bochi State and Abia State Governor Alex Ote. According to Governor Zulum of Borno State, the vice president chaired the committee to liaise with the leadership of labor unions in the country to find a way forward on the emerging issues and the interests of the nation. The council has also taxed the state to dialogue with the labor unions leadership. Committee made up of Anambar State Governor, NGF Chairman and others have been nominated to interface with the labor. The most important thing that the council has taken note is that all these palliatives that are being mentioned now are temporary solutions. Council has decided to invest on medium and longer term sustainable solutions that will ensure availability of food and food items in Nigeria, especially investing in commercial agriculture and also investing in irrigated agriculture. NEC is calling on Nigerians and indeed labor to become law abiding as the president is determined to address the issues at hand. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
