Governor Yahaya Bello has assured President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that Governors will complement Federal Government\u2019s initiatives aimed at providing relief to Nigerians.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Bello stated this on Friday after a meeting with President Bola Tinubu.<\/p>\n
He said the successful implementation of the succour pledged by the Federal Government to cushion the negative effect of the fuel subsidy removal must be matched by all tiers of government.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow we have a leader who has clearly spelt out his policy direction for revamping the economy and he needs all our support.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat support will be complemented by governors.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are all ready to provide relief for our people. We feel their pains and trust the people to be patient in this trying phase, so that they will reap the benefits of the new government\u2019s economic initiatives.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe shall not let the President down and we shall not let our people down in this phase of new economic journey to a stronger and resilient nation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe President has given us that full assurance of being people-friendly,\u201d the governor said.<\/p>\n
Similarly, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia of Benue said already, his administration has marshalled out an action plan to restore the lost glory of the state \u201cafter the long drought\u201d.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He said the state government has worked out immediate policies to stimulate both the civil service and agriculture sector as remedial interventions towards a vibrant Benue.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe people of Benue, and indeed all Nigerians, can be rest assured that a new dawn is coming to Benue.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have started by working on the welfare of the civil servants. That is not even a project that ordinarly one should state. But it\u2019s a way forward due to what we met on ground.<\/p>\n
\u201cOther agricultural incentives for farmers are in the pipeline and will be unfolded very soon.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to restore Benue to its position of being the food basket of Nigeria. Agricultural potential in the state is worth more than crude oil,\u201d Alia said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Governor Yahaya Bello has assured President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that Governors will complement Federal Government\u2019s initiatives aimed at…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[682,34,40],"class_list":{"0":"post-7763","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-news","7":"tag-bola-ahmed-tinubu","8":"tag-kogi","9":"tag-yahaya-bello"},"yoast_head":"\n
