It also urged the National Emergency Management Agency to immediately provide palliatives to the affected traders and persons to enable them to renovate their shops and restart their business, and
Moreso, CNG also aware of series of follow up letters written by the 14 lawmakers to the
Chaiman House Committee on NEMA and NEMA itself on the urgent need to help the victims of the inferno, which to all these humble efforts of the lawmakers confirmed to have led to the release of the materials to the victim.
The CNG as a non-political group is not writing to discredit any politician or an individual efforts, but to always serve as a watchdog on politicians and government activities, the justification of fairness and betterment of our community is one of our watchwords.
