The African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has lambasted President Bola Tinubu over the N70,000 shipping allowance for employees.
A observation by way of his senior media aide, Phrank Shuaibu, on Wednesday, stated N70,000 can most effective purchase 50 litres of gasoline in these days’s Nigeria, describing Tinubu’s aid bundle as an insult to staff.
In line with Atiku, it’s depraved and insensitive for the Tinubu govt to be celebrating N70,000 as aid when inflation has destroyed the buying energy of staff.
“How can a central authority that got rid of gasoline subsidy and driven petrol worth to over N1,000 in step with litre be telling staff that N70,000 is aid? N70,000 can not even purchase 50 litres of gasoline. This isn’t aid, that is mockery,” Atiku stated.
The previous Vice President added that Nigerian staff are going thru hell below Tinubu’s management, with meals costs skyrocketing, shipping prices insufferable and salaries nugatory.
He insisted that Tinubu’s financial reforms have most effective introduced ache, starvation and hardship to bizarre Nigerians whilst govt officers proceed to are living in luxurious.
Atiku known as at the Federal Executive to in an instant get a hold of a dwelling salary that displays present financial realities, no longer tokenism.
