He said the state government remains focused on the poor, underserved, and vulnerable, who are the most affected by economic policies such as the removal of fuel subsidy and the rising cost of inflation.
In a statement issued by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Muhammad Lawal Shehu, Gov. Sani explained that as leaders, they must, as a matter of urgency, review social and economic policies to reflect the current realities of the most vulnerable and underserved communities, especially those in the rural areas.
