The House of Representatives has urged the Federal Government to provide palliatives for Nigerians due to the hardships caused by the removal of subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) by the Bola Tinubu administration.

“The House is also concerned that the sudden fuel subsidy removal has left millions of Nigerians terrified, thus causing untold hardships, as Nigerians grapple with the challenges of meeting up with, not only the high cost of petrol but also the consequent increase in the prices of goods and services.

Madaki also recalled how the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress recently suspended a planned strike over the removal of the subsidy in the hopes that the Federal Government would address its adverse effects on workers.
