Former chairman of the National Road Transport Owners (NARTO), Potiskum local government chapter, Yobe state, Alhaji Abdullahi Garba Alele, and Gadodumasun Fika have called on the federal government to introduce price control in the country.
Alhaji Abdullahi Alele made the peal today in Damaturu while briefing the newsmen on the current hardships facing the people in the country.
He said that before, people were crying over the high price of dollars, but now dollars are down, and instead, businessmen are reducing the price of essential commodities.
Alele further calls on the businessmen to fear God in their minds, adding that whatever you do in the world, you must account for it before our creator, Allah (SWT).
He also urged the government to provide enough farm implements, such as fertilizer and seeds, among others. So people should participate actively in agricultural production for their sustainable means of livelihood.
“God blessed us with good land for farming, especially in the northern part of the country, and about 99 percent of the occupation of the people of Yobe State is farming.” Alele said.
