Nigerians May End Up Buying Petrol For N5,000 Per Litre Under Tinubu – NLC by NaijaCover(op): 4:06pm On Sep 07, 2024
Spokesman Of The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Benson Upah, has warned that Nigerians could eventually buy petrol for N5,000 per litre.

Upah stated this while reacting to the recent hike in fuel pump price in an interview with Weekend Trust.

He also insisted that the increase is contrary to the agreement NLC reached with the President Bola Tinubu Government.

According to Upah, subsidy was never restored as claimed by the Federal Government.

He said: “Subsidy was never restored at any point in time as they claimed.

“So, what will inform moving the pump price of PMS from N650 to N1,500 or N2,000?

“I want to tell you something, what this signals is that Nigerians have not seen the end yet, we may end up paying nothing less than N5,000 per liter for fuel in this country. We hope not to get there but if we get there, the decision will be left to Nigerians.”

It will not be up to that except our naira loses value.

The average price is 1.44usd in the world.

My advice is for the NLC to take several seats backwards. They had the opportunity to truly canvass for a better Nigeria and demand for better governance in view of profound suffering inflicted on Nigerians from draconian policies enacted by the Tinubu-led FG.

Instead they chose to put personal interests above the welfare of the people. They should keep shut. Their era is long gone. Nigerians will not be deceived by the hyenas only interested in self-aggrandisement instead of the masses welfare.

50% of our actual petrol uses are unneeded and 50% of consumption figures are not by us. The way to expose that is deregulation and it may push prices beyond N1500.
