President Bola Tinubu\u2019s led government has put a halt to the initiative aimed at selling subsidized 50kg bags of rice to civil servants at the price of \u20a640,000.
\nfederal government had recently said it had created centres across the country where Nigerians could purchase 50kg bags of rice for \u20a640,000.<\/p>\n
The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Muhammed Idris, said the plan was one of several initiatives by the President Tinubu administration to ease living conditions for citizens.<\/p>\n
A statement earlier in the week through the Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-governmental Affairs, which was signed by the Director of Human Resources of the Ministry, Jaiyesimi Abimbola, disclosed that all interested public servants were to complete a Google form on the OHCSF website and submit it to the director of human resources for endorsement.<\/p>\n
This plan, however, has now been halted, as noted in a communique entitled \u2018Withdrawal of Internal Circular on Sale of Subsidized Rice to Public Servants,\u2019 which was signed by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs (Human Resources Management Department).<\/p>\n
The circular was directed to Directors and Heads of Departments.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am directed to refer to our internal circular in the Ministry (Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs) of 1st August 2024 on the above subject matter and to inform you that the Internal Circular is hereby withdrawn.<\/p>\n
\u201cFurther details will be communicated in due course. Please bring the contents of this internal circular to the attention of staff in your respective Departments and Units for their information and proper guidance,\u201d the circular reads.<\/p>\n
However, no explanation was provided for the withdrawal of the plan, which certainly will leave many civil servants who had registered for president Bola Tinubu\u2019s led government has put a halt to the initiative aimed at selling subsidized 50kg bags of rice to civil servants at the price of \u20a640,000.<\/p>\n
