Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has backed President Bola Tinubu’s decision to remove subsidy on petroleum products describing it as only way to salvage the country.

In a remark, Fayose stated that: “On this removal of fuel subsidy, I am convinced that President Tinubu has taken the best and the wisest decision for the collective good of Nigeria and its people. He promised to remove subsidy, he never hide it.

“Most importantly too, the immediate past government already removed fuel subsidy technically by not making provision for it in the 2023 budget.

“I appeal to Nigerians to bear with the government for now as the present hardship will ease out with time.

“Removing the fuel subsidy is the best thing to do and it has to be done once and for all.

“Unfortunately too, the subsidy regime had only been benefiting a few people in the oil industry and Nigeria must break this chains once and for all.

“No doubt, President Tinubu is not a magician who can manufacture money.

“He can only strategically reposition the country, using his experience and intellect, which he has started.

“Many governments have come and paid lip service to all these issues, it is time to sustain our country by taking decisions that may be seen as harsh, but can return the country back to the path of progress.

“The NLC and all interested parties, especially ordinary Nigerians should realize that the last administration did more damage and the new govt can only be finding ways and means to stabilize the country.

“Sadly, like typical Nigerians who are always desirous of taking advantage of every situation, the fuel marketers are only interested in making money for themselves and methinks the government should come very hard on them this time.

“Anyone among them found to be hoarding fuel or selling at  exorbitant rate should be dealt with.”
