£1 British pound is almost N1000; the Naira speedily eroded from the N760=£1 rate before Tinubu was pronounced president-elect.
What's the purchasing power of the so-called N400 billion saved from removal of fuel subsidy; if ever such money was saved in the first place?

What is wrong with Nigeria and Nigerians?

Government paid for subsidy up to June 30, 2023.

It was a heisty pronouncement that led us into this troubled waters. Where then did the government saved the N400bn, or is it a mockery to the FG?

Same thing happened in 2016 when subsidy was removed and petrol prices were deregulated.

Why are they using the same scam scheme to swindle us again? Maybe it’s because they have made us uneducated literates?

Subsidy removal: Tinubu backs Buhari, Falana condemns price hike

13th May 2016

A former Lagos State Governor and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has described the decision of the President Buhari-led Federal Government to remove petrol subsidy as courageous.

The government, through the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, on Wednesday, announced the removal of the subsidy on petrol, pegging the upper limit at N145 per litre from N86.50k.

In a statement in Lagos on Thursday, Tinubu said though the decision was a difficult one, it would ultimately become beneficial to the generality of the people instead of enriching the pockets of a few Nigerians, who enjoyed the fraud of the subsidy regime.

Osinbajo: We’ve saved N1.4trn by not paying fuel subsidy

AUGUST 25, 2016

Vice President Yemi Osinbanjo says the federal government has saved N1.4 trillion for not paying oil subsidy.

Speaking in Kano on Thursday during the third day of the 15th Joint Planning Board and National Council on development meeting, Osinbajo urged Nigerians not to lose faith in Buhari’s administration, saying the president would fix the economy.

“With the deregulation of the downstream petroleum sector, there has been a significant increase in the availability of petrol throughout the country for the savings of N1.4 trillion on subsidy payments alone,” Osinbajo said.

This report may not be true in terms of saving of physical cash. Since we’ve been borrowing to pay for subsidy since January, I really don’t think we should call this savings because the money is not there. We’ve simply stopped spending N400b on subsidy.
Where are you guys getting this story from that we've been borrowing to pay for subsidy?
Is this the new format to shield the present govt from accountability?

Are you sure you understand the meaning of antagonism?
Criticise liars so that they refrain from bamboozling you with more lies.
Are you sure such huge amount of money was truly saved in one week from removal of fuel subsidy? I am sure it wasn't. It's all propaganda of falsehood to win public sympathy for a stolen mandate.

Are you mixing NLC with oil marketers?

Labour speaks
Meanwhile, the organised Labour has called on Nigerians to exercise patience while it continues to negotiate with the representatives of the Federal Government following the removal of subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit which has continued to cause hardship to Nigerians.

The PUNCH reports that since the removal of the subsidy on PMS, there has been a spike in cost of living conditions, with oil marketers projecting a N700/per liter cost of fuel by July 2023.

Speaking with our correspondent on Thursday, the National vice-President of the Trade Union Congress and a representative of the organised labour interfacing with the government, Tommy Etim, said labour unions were constantly engaging the government to ensure that favorable palliatives are distributed to Nigerians.

“ Nigeria has come of age and whatever happens Nigerians especially workers should exercise patience until the outcome of the meetings so that we can arrive at a collective bargaining agreement that will be for the interest of Nigerians and Nigerian workers.

“Whatever we are facing now is a collective sacrifice and there is hope that we will not allow the pressure for those who have eaten fat on the so called subsidy to frustrate our negotiations. Let Nigerians see whatever is happening as a collective sacrifice that all Nigerians will be happy.”
