Council Chairman charges committee on palliative delivery

Chairman of Isi Uzo Local Government Area, Enugu State, Bar. Obiora Obeagu has on Monday 25th day of September 2023, continued the distribution of Palliatives across the wards in the area in line with the direction of the Enugu State Governor, Dr. Peter Ndubuisi Mba.

In a statement by the Chairman, he urged the committee members drawn across the local government to be fair adding that they should adhere to the criteria for selection of beneficiary of the palliative. 

The federal Government had earlier announced a N5 billion palliative for each state of the federation, including the federal capital territory (FCT), to cushion the impact of the removal of the petrol subsidy. 

However, the Enugu State Government had further released the criteria for the selection pointing that beneficiaries must be  the vulnerable and disadvantaged ones in the community.
