Untold Hardship for Nigerians
According to the party’s PRO, Kilamuwaye Badmus, many Nigerians are undergoing untold hardship due to the current situation.
The party urged the president to urgently address the situation.
Failure of Fuel Subsidy Removal
“Since the planned removal of the fuel subsidy has failed, the best thing for the APC-led administration is to carry out an urgent review of the policy,” the statement read.
Hardship Caused by Scarcity
“Nigerians have witnessed untold hardship in the past few days due to the scarcity of petroleum products in the country,” it added.
“Few filling stations selling fuel are doing so at cutthroat prices,” the statement noted.
It said transport costs have skyrocketed, exceeding budgets.
Policy Review Needed
“This situation has shown that the said fuel subsidy removal by the Tinubu-led administration is a failure, a professional scam and there is a need for an urgent review of the policy,” the NNPP stated.
