Judiciously Expend Monthly Allocation to Tackle Effect of Oil Subsidy Removal, Group Tells Governors

By: Michael Mike

Kulen Allah Cattle Rearers Association of Nigeria (KACRAN) has called on governors of the 36 states of the federation and the upcoming Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to judiciously expend the monthly allocation from the federation account to remove hardship from the nation especially brought about by the removal of oil subsidy.

The association in a statement signed on Sunday by it’s National President, Hon Khalil Bello said: “The state governors and the incoming Minister of the Federal capital Territory should make sure that they judiciously utilize the billions of naira to be received from the federal government’s coffer monthly as subvention due to the surplus earning because of the total removal of oil subsidy to better the lives of their citizens and in the execution of various development projects such that people will not feel the full weight of the negative impact of the oil subsidy removal.

“This would ensure a safe guard from inflation, making commodities is cheaper or at affordable prices and make Nigerians happy and proud of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Administration policies and programmes.”

The group said “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is one of the very few democratically elected presidents of Nigeria who comes with boldness, courage and strong commendable actions to take any measure that will stabilize the nation’s economy which shall enable him develop the country and improve the living standard of its people.”

The group recalled that “from the very beginning, after his swearing-in as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria on 29th May 2023, when he was delivering his inaugural speech, he surprised Nigerians and the entire world when he took a bold step on how to minimize corruption in the country and generate enough revenue that will enable our governments to actively operate as true government rather than remain as mere institutions that are just answering the names of Government but are not rendering the peoples developmental services that their electorates are expecting to see.

“At the same time and going by the series of decisions and decisive measures/actions he had taken including the well deserved appointment of Chief of Staff; Secretary to the Federal Government; Special Adviser, Security just to mention but a few, as well as the suspension of various top government’s officers and given order for thorough investigation of their various Departments/Agencies to prove to Nigerians that, his good administration has nothing to hide as per as transparency and accountability in governance is concern. He has beyond doubt proved to all Nigerians that, he is a qualitative leader who came well prepared to govern this country in the rightful ways and direction so that we could see positive changes within the shortest possible time.”

Bello, said in the statement that: “Therefore, we of KACRAN, highly
appreciate and commended his doggedness and fearlessness in doing everything humanly possible to transform Nigeria and end the untold sufferings of the citizenry. I, as the National President of the Association who personally met with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2015 in Asokoro, Lagos State Guest House saw by myself how very simple and kind the President is, he received me with homely and sincere cordiality, l want to assure all Nigerians that, our President is somebody who has Nigerians at heart and have a general respect of all mankind regardless of their status, social class, gender, tribe, religion or part of the country they come from.

“In this regard and as an eyewitness on simplicity and accommodative tendencies of His Excellency President Bala Ahmed Tinubu, I optimistically wish to state that, by God’s grace, Nigerians will see unbelievable developmental changes and progress within one or two years of his administration.”
