Delivering the items at Area 1, Garki, Abuja, Mr. Rashid Yusuf, Head, Market Planning and Distribution, Media Trust Limited, told the members of the Association of Newspaper Distributors that due to the challenges arising from the removal of oil subsidy by the federal government, the Media Trust deemed it necessary to render them such assistance.
