Omoyele Sowore, the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the February 25 presidential election, has attacked President Bola Tinubu for announcing the withdrawal of fuel subsidies.
According to Sowore, Tinubu’s “thoughtless fuel subsidy removal announcement triggered fuel scarcity and price gouging all over the country.”
According to reports marketers and operators have raised petrol pump prices to N210-N500 per litre following Tinubu’s administration’s confirmation of the elimination of gasoline subsidy.
Sowore said on Tuesday via his verified Twitter profile that the country’s elites don’t care about Nigerians.
He wrote,
“Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT thoughtless fuel subsidy removal announcement has already triggered fuel scarcity and price gouging all over Nigeria.
This is why Nigerians must understand that nothing good will come out the Nigerian Elite-in and out- of power. They’re always after you. They don’t care about you! #Revolutionnow.”
