Outgoing Chairman of the Forum, Mr David Olofu gave the advise at a valedictory session for outgoing State Commissioners for Finance which held in Abuja on Friday

While commending President Bola Tinubu over the removal of subsidy, Olofu said, as financial experts, the Forum, like other Nigerians, had long yearned for it.

“That is what we had been yearning for. He came, his first day in office, he was able to achieve that which we have always asked for,” Olofu stated. However, he urged the Federal Government to come up with policies and programmes that could address the challenges Nigerians are currently facing as a result of an increase in the pump price of fuel due to the removal of subsidy.

“He has already started it by proposing a wage increase for workers, but that has to be done alongside sub-nationals because the sub-nationals have the bulk of civil servants in this country.
