Dr Christopher Kolade, the Chairman, Subsidy Re-investment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P), has said that he will not quit the plum job, in spite of criticisms from some quarters.<\/p>\n

Kolade, who made the announcement\u00a0on Friday in Lagos at a media luncheon, said that the committee was inaugurated to ensure better welfare for Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will continue to work for Nigerians and we will not abdicate this country to anybody and nobody will take my integrity away.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will not quit, if you attack me, I will defend myself. The National Assembly and the SURE-P Committee and everybody are supposed to be working for Nigerians not individuals,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Kolade said that the committee members would continue to ensure probity, transparency and accountability.<\/p>\n

He noted that the total budget for running SURE-P activities was one billion\u00a0naira\u00a0and not N2.2 billion as reported in some dailies.<\/p>\n

Kolade explained that N220 million was spent on secretarial activities this year out of the\u00a0one billion naira allocated to the committee.<\/p>\n

The chairman noted that funds allocated to the committee for project execution was N180 billion, representing 42 per cent of the partial subsidy removal.<\/p>\n

He said that the remaining 54 per cent goes to the state and Local Governments, stressing\u00a0that the Federal Government had predetermined the projects to be executed by the committee before its inauguration.(NAN)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
