Ekiti State Government has resolved to put measures in place to address hike in the prices of goods and services.
The resolution was part of the decisions reached at a meeting Governor Kayode Fayemi held with leaders of transport unions and other stakeholders in Ado-Ekiti.
At the meeting were representatives of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN), Pick-up and Lorry Association of Nigeria (PLAN), Okada Riders Association, Tricycle Riders Association, National Association of Cooperative Transport and Tipper Drivers Association.
Fayemi, represented by his Chief of Staff, Biodun Omoleye, said the meeting was in demonstration of government’s concern over skyrocketed transport fare, which has impacted negatively on the prices of goods and services, compared to what is obtainable in neighbouring states.
