In Borno and Yobe states, the distribution of palliatives to households has commenced in earnest.

Adamawa, Borno and Yobe governments have embarked on measures to ameliorate the current hardship on citizens caused by the removal of petrol subsidy.

Mr Zulum said that while the federal government palliatives would cater for 100,000 vulnerable households in the state, his administration would provide for an additional 300,000 households to make a total of 400,000 households. He said, “I am urging other states to also involve Civil Society Organisations in the palliative committees for transparency and accountability.”

In Adamawa, the distribution of palliatives is yet to commence, but the state government has constituted a distribution committee under the chairmanship of the Secretary to the State Government, Auwal Tukur. “Monitor and liaise with relevant stakeholders or community agents and ensure equitable distribution of the palliatives to the intended beneficiaries,” Mr Farauta tasked members of the committee.
