Sanwo-Olu made this known during a live media chat on Arise Tv.

He said that workers in the teaching sector will maintain the five days a week work schedule and the state government will ensure additional transport support for them.

The governor further stated that as part of measures to ease the economic challenges on residents, civil servants from level 1-14 will begin to work three days a week.

He added that the state government will open Sunday Markets in at least 42 identified markets where residents will be able to buy food items at a discounted price.


โ€You will only need able to buy items worth up to N25,000,โ€ he added.

All the knee-jerk approach by APC led government will only serve to temporarily deceive the people. The real problems must be solved which include creating jobs and enabling environment for small businesses to thrive. When are we going to have leaders that think ahead?

God bless Governor Sanwo-olu for listening to some of our advice on Nairaland.
Some days ago I made a passionate plea to the governor to re-introduce the subsidy on the BRT buses,and today he announced a return of the subsidy on the fare.
I have always said forums like Nairaland should be the go to website for Government officials to assuage the temperature of the masses.
We must always keeping giving Government our own ideas and opinions on how to navigate this very very difficult times in Nigeria.
I applaud every Nigerian who still believes it will get better in This country,I must reiterate I take no offense at those who have made up their mind that things will never get better.
It's of no use trying to convince people like that to make any useful suggestions at this very trying period,better to leave them to gloat at their whatever victory they believe they have as the country goes through this hardship.
As for the food market,I hope the governor is able to implement the idea of people not purchasing more than 25000 naira worth of food at the market,there are many many devilish people who will seek to buy up all the produce and resell at their stores.
I will implore the governor make sure the food is branded in a way that the logo of the state is displayed prominently on the package and anyone caught selling it outside the market should be arrested.
I'm sure this hard phase of our National life will come to an end very soon.

God bless Nigeria...........

Nice one from Lagos. All this though won't save a hungry man though. As the cost of foodstuffs rises, the "builder of Lagos" should bring his "magic touch" and mitigate the current hardship. Current minimum wage can't get even a half bag of rice right now.

A short term measure is commendable but not the lasting solution. Nigeria is in for a long-term , seemingly unending change.

what makes you think that Sanwo-olu saw your comment on nairaland?

so the government of Tinubu decided to remove fuel subsidy because he claimed that it is too expensive.

then after removing it, the same Tinubu and state governors are pretending to be spending billions on palliatives to cushion the effect of removing fuel subsidy.

pls what is the economic sense in that?

how is this never ending palliative now different and better than the fuel subsidy they said they removed?
