The Nigeria Labour Congress, Kebbi State Council, has commended Governor Nasir Idris for the judicious distribution of palliatives in the state, saying it has led to decreased food prices.
This was contained in a letter of appreciation dated October 19, 2023, and addressed to the governor by the NLC Chairman in Kebbi State, Alhaji Murtala Usman.
In the letter, Usman said: “On behalf of the entire leaders and members of NLC, Kebbi Council, I wish to write and register our sincere appreciation and gratitude to Your Excellency for the successful flag-off and distribution of palliatives to both civil servants and general citizens of Kebbi State.
