Former Speaker of the House of Representatives Yakubu Dogara on Friday said President Bola Tinubu didn’t remove the subsidy on fuel even though he made the announcement.

Dogara said there was no provision for fuel subsidy in the budget before Tinubu made the announcement.

Featuring on Channels TV, the former Speaker insisted that fuel subsidy removal was a good move for Nigeria despite the effect.

He said: “In this case, there was no provision for it, and anybody who told you Tinubu suspended it was just joking because how did he suspend payment that was not budgeted for in the first instance?

“There was no provision for subsidy in that budget and I am not aware of any amendment that took place to accommodate the payment of subsidy.

“The truth is that he (Tinubu) was not the one who removed the subsidy. But he did make that pronouncement.

“There was no provision for it in the budget and you know the budget is backed by the Constitution. If there’s no provision for it in the budget, then how do you pay for it?”

Why not seek a supplementary budget, understand the whole process first and gradually phase it out

Thundafireseun:
This is not appointment matter…

Buh real life matters… and he is very very correct

DaddyCoool:
But subsidy continued to be paid (as everyone has said), where's the money coming from. Who budgetted it??

Thundafireseun:

So by what magic are marketers selling below their cost price??

bluepreek:
Tell them oh Oga Dogara....it's only the children of perdition and hate from that muddy region that speaks without facts........

DaddyCoool:
Good question! Liars everywhere, a country where elders conceal the truth and tell lies
for their selfish aggrandizement...
