The federal government has once again claimed the Tinubu
administration is fully aware of the economic challenges that Nigerians have
faced since the removal of the fuel subsidy and the impact of the global
economic downturn.
Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, George
Akume, said this during a World Press Conference to mark the 63rd Independence
of Nigeria in Abuja on Monday.
Akume claimed the government is working assiduously to
provide the necessary palliatives to mitigate the challenges.
He said the government was engaging the Organised Labour to
address areas of concern for the well-being of all Nigerian workers.
“It is for this reason that this government is anchoring on
the Renewed Hope Agenda, which will improve food security; guarantee end to
poverty; improve security; economic growth and job creation; access to capital;
improve the playing field on which people and particularly companies operate;
respect for the rule of law; and fight against corruption,” he said.
He added that the President has given the approval for this
63rd independence anniversary to be low-key in line with the present economic
realities.
