Deputy Governor of the State, Dr. Idiat Adebule stated this following speculations that the resumption date has been postponed.
While noting that the Ministry recognise the stress associated with the current fuel scarcity and its attendant consequences, She said higher premium must be placed on the development of the leaders of tomorrow.
