Fuel subsidy: We must be sensitive, reduce long convoys – Soludo

Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra state, has advised the political class and other governors to be sensitive to the events happening in the country and prune down long convoys, following the removal of fuel subsidy.

Soludo stated this while addressing pressmen after the National Economic Council (NEC) meeting at the Council Chambers of the State House in Abuja on Thursday.

He noted that the situation in the country has called for some reviews, and it would be insensitive for governors to move around with large convoys.

He said, “That we mustn’t live, even the cost of running the state, the way we even live, someone gave an example of a state governor going with 20-something vehicles in a convoy and all these have to be fuelled, and so on and so forth.”

Soludo also confirmed there were discussions among the governors and members of the council to also make sacrifices for the people.
