Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo has advised his colleagues to trim their convoys and be sensitive to the pain of Nigerians as a result of the subsidy reduction.
Governors, according to Soludo, should not travel in long convoys when their subjects are suffering.
He made the remark while speaking to press during a meeting of the National Economic Council, NEC, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
State governors, according to Soludo, must make sacrifices for their people.
“That we must not live, even the cost of running the state, the way we even live, someone gave the example of a state governor going with 20-something vehicles in a convoy, all of which must be fuelled, and so on and so forth.”
“Hey gentlemen, we’d need to be sensitive to the times; we’d need to live within the average of the people we’re governing, and so on and so forth,” he remarked.
