Speaking during the interview, Idris said the committee set up by Tinubu to review the operational mechanism of the national social investment programme has submitted its report to pave the way for the resumption of the programmes. “It is essential to emphasize that the funds to be saved from the withdrawal of electricity subsidy will be reinvested in enhancing power supply across the country and improving other vital social services such as health and education,” the minister said.
