So who and when was it increased from N11 to N25?

GEJ was not the highest percentage increase in Nigeria, rather it was Chief Ernest Shonekan, 8 nov. 1993 70k to N5

From 70k to 500k is an increase in 430k which amounts to an increase by 614%

GEJ's increase from N65 to N141 is an increase by N76 which amounts a percentage increase of 117%

Let's tell ourselves the gospel truth, fuel prices ain't going down anytime soon. We're even likely going to see subsidy removal instead of increase in subsidy money.





What about the PIB
