The Coalition of United Political Parties has condemned President Bola Tinubu's recent suggestion for Nigerians to buy petrol at N1,000 per litre or opt for Compressed Natural Gas at N200.
Chief Peter Ameh, General Secretary of CUPP, criticized the government for failing to implement a proper policy framework before removing the fuel subsidy, leading to inflation, increased poverty, and a surge in transportation costs. The CUPP urged the government to prioritize the welfare of its citizens by investing in alternative energy sources and implementing transparent and accountable policies to address the ongoing economic crisis.
“The recent launch of CNG at N230 per litre, while I see it a welcome move, does little to address the underlying issues caused by the fuel subsidy removal.
