The National Economic Council (NEC) on Thursday set up a committee to look at the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC) recommendations on palliatives for workers following the removal of the fuel subsidy.
Thursday’s meeting was the first for the Council headed by Vice President Kashim Shettima with the governors of the 36 states as members since the current administration assumed office last month.
The committee which has members from each of the six geo-political zones is headed by the Kebbi State Governor, Nasiru Idris.
