Amid the subsidy removal crisis and the associated high cost of living the Kwara State government has opened a students’ palliative portal for indigenes of the state in public-tertiary institutions in Nigeria.
According to a statement signed by Shehu AbdulRaheem Adaramaja, chairman of the government committee on students’ palliative on the official Twitter handle @RealAARahman, “His excellency, the governor of Kwara State has approved payment of fuel subsidy removal palliative to undergraduate students of Kwara State origin in public-owned tertiary institutions in Nigeria.”
