Just In: Tinubu To Returns Of Petroleum Subsidy Over Hardship
President Bola Tinubu is considering a “temporary subsidy” on Premium Motor Spirit(PMS) otherwise known as petrol as crude oil prices and foreign exchange rates continue to soar.
There is yet no final decision, presidency sources told TheCable, but the proposal is “firmly on the table” as Nigerians continue to groan under harsh economic realities following the removal of petrol subsidy in May 2023.
Already, labour unions have threatened to embark on an indefinite strike if the petrol price further surges.
The Kenyan government, on Monday, re-introduced fuel subsidies to curb soaring prices of petrol, kerosene, and diesel in the country.
The move came after months of violent anti-government protests over the burden of high cost of living.
According to a presidency official, the “realistic” amount of petrol consumed in the country is now known following the removal of subsidy on Tinubu’s inauguration, hence the amount spent on subsidy “can now be controlled”.
