President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration has approved a ₦70,000 transport intervention for workers across all levels of the public service, according to the information contained in the report.

The intervention is expected to run for six months, providing temporary relief to workers facing rising transportation costs and other economic pressures.

The development comes as the Minimum Wage Negotiation Committee begins its sittings immediately, signalling renewed engagement on workers’ welfare and remuneration.

The proposed transport support is intended to cushion the impact of increased commuting expenses on workers while discussions on minimum wage and related labour issues continue.

The outcome of the committee’s deliberations and further details on the implementation, eligibility requirements and payment arrangements for the transport intervention are expected to clarify how the measures will benefit workers.
