The Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting scheduled for Wednesday will not hold according to the spokesman of the federal government.
Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the Minister of Information stated that the two-day public holiday declared for the Eid el-Kabir celebration left little or no time to prepare for the weekly meeting.
The public condemned the government for taking a lackadaisical approach to the management of the economy.
The outrage from sections of the public comes as a result of the poor state of economic affairs in the country. The hike in food prices, and other inflationary impact on day to day living, has touched Nigerians in every area apart from income, which has remained stagnant.
To fuel the suffering, currently the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has embarked on an industrial action. Resident doctors in the county have also downed their tools.
However the Information minister says the holidays left it little time to prepare documents for the meeting.
