According to Daily Trust, the announcement was made during an interactive session with stakeholders of the APC and the PDP under the Rainbow Coalition in Kwali Area Council.\n\nWike urged the councillors to view the upcoming election as a significant responsibility, noting that the proposed reward is intended to serve as an incentive and encourage competition.
