The Delta State government has approved a three-day working week for civil servants in a bid to cushion the effect of fuel subsidy removal by President Bola Tinubu.
Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, who gave the approval on Tuesday shortly after he swore-in 26 Commissioners and members of the State Executive Council in Asaba, the state capital, said the measure was part of palliatives by the state government following the hardship being experienced by the people as a result of the removal of fuel subsidy.
Oborevwori also stated that his administration had approved payment of N10,000 monthly support to each worker to ameliorate the current hardship beginning from August.
