Falana on Friday added that there was no doubt that a lot of fraud characterised the management of fuel subsidy and the President Bola Tinubu-led government would have to investigate the issues. “The government will have to move speedily to address the suffering of the people, undeserved pains inflicted on the people, because of the irresponsibility of the Nigerian ruling class,” he said.
