Peter Obi of the Labour Party, LP, has criticized President Bola Tinubu’s administration over the manner it handled the subsidy removal reforms.

Obi said the Tinubu government will also remove the subsidy on air and
charge Nigerians If it had the chance.

The Labour Party presidential candidate made the statement during an interview with News Central TV, which aired on Wednesday.

Obi said, “I’ve said it before, we have to show what is being removed and where it is being applied. You don’t know what the subsidy is today. You don’t know.”

“What they are saying is that petrol subsidy is gone. Electricity subsidy is gone. In fact, soon they will remove the subsidy on air. If they had the chance, they would charge us for air. We are not saying we will not do that. But tell us where it is going.”

DAILY POST recalls that Tinubu’s government announced the removal of fuel subsidy in May 2023.

The development has also led to a hike in petrol pump prices nationwide.
