More facts continue to emerge from insiders about the role of the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala in the whole fuel subsidy removal impasse that is now threatening the relative successes of Nigeria's economy in recent times.

The latest is coming from Nigeria's former Ministers of...
Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, who said former President Olusegun Obasanjo, due to wise counsel, resisted pressure from Dr. Okonjo-Iweala (then Finance Minister) between 2006 and 2007 to implement full deregulation without adequate infrastructures in place.

Fani-Kayode made the revelation on Thursday while addressing protesters at Area One, Abuja, during the public march against the complete removal of fuel subsidy by the Federal Government.

He disclosed that Obasanjo resisted Okonjo-Iweala's pressure on the issue, because he was convinced such action would hurt the masses badly if 'adequate palliatives' are not put in place.

Fani-Kayode thus urged those at the rally to continue resisting the deregulation policy, in the way it is currently being implemented, as it would further impoverish them and their families.

Truth will never come out of your mouth.
Obasanjo resisted removal of feul subsidy because
it would have affected him. His refinary would have
been closed and looting ended
The cabal think Nigerians are stupid,the country
make money and it would up in thier bank
account while the masses continue to suffer.
Nigerians are shouting loud and clear, enough
is enough. It is now time to remove subsidy
Let them continue bribing law makers with
50billions dolla God will set Nigerinas free
