“We Couldn’t Even Raise The Issue!” – Governor AbdulRazaq Reveals Tense Atmosphere At Presidential Dinner.
AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) and Governor of Kwara State, recently shared insights regarding the aftermath of the 2023 fuel subsidy removal, highlighting both initial anxieties and subsequent economic improvements.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
-
Initial Panic and Security Concerns: Upon learning of the policy while on a trip to China, governors initially feared widespread unrest. In response, they initiated emergency security meetings and deployed security personnel nationwide; however, these anticipated protests ultimately did not materialize.
-
The Tense Presidential Dinner: Governors, including those present in China like Babajide Sanwo-Olu, had originally intended to meet with President Bola Tinubu to argue against the policy’s implementation. When they were eventually invited to dinner at the President’s residence, the atmosphere was so charged that the governors felt unable to broach the topic of the subsidy.
-
Fiscal Transformation: Reflecting on the economic impact, AbdulRazaq noted that many states were previously struggling, often left with only ₦100 million to ₦200 million after salary obligations—an amount insufficient for significant infrastructure projects. He contrasted this with the current situation, where states are now actively reducing debt burdens rather than relying on new loans or bonds.
-
Minimum Wage: Highlighting the benefits of the current fiscal environment, the Chairman noted that many states are already paying near ₦100,000 in wages and encouraged President Tinubu to collaborate with governors to establish a ₦100,000 national minimum wage.
