“We will continue to highlight more vulnerable groups within our distribution channels who would benefit from the palliatives,” he added.

Reacting to the possibility of fare increment, Sanwo-Olu said they are in discussion with private transport operators to regulate fares bearing the difficult circumstances in which Lagosians have found themselves.

He, however, urged them to remain calm while the rollout of the palliatives is put in place.
