President Tinubu has been asked to immediately reduce fuel price to N300 per litre.

 

NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Vincent Odogbor, the senior special assistant (SSA) on mass mobilisation to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta state, has urged President Bola Tinubu to immediately review the price of fuel to N300/N400 per litre.

 

This Nigerian news platform understands that most motorists and commuters across Nigerian cities are displeased with the hike in the pump price of premium motor spirit (PMS) to between N970 and N1,100 per litre.

 

As reported by Vanguard newspaper on Tuesday, September 10, Odogbor lamented that the fuel hike compounded the troubles of those in the rural and riverine areas. According to him, the Nigerian masses could no longer bear the hardship of President Tinubu’s policies.

Odogbor, in a statement, said businesses are folding up, and organisations are laying off workers due to the high cost of running their bills.

 

His statement partly reads:

“Mr President, the people suffering from this fuel sting cut across the social ladder. It affects senior citizens, persons with disabilities, students, innocent children, poor and vulnerable Nigerians.

“I join other concerned Nigerians to urge you to reverse and review the price of PMS to 300- 400 naira so that Nigeria’s workforce can be adequately mobilised to prosperity and economic stability amongst nations.”
