Popular Nigerian TV host, Rufai Oseni has expressed shock and disappointment that President Bola Tinubu removed fuel subsidy without first getting a plan on how to deal with the effects. He was reacting to a statement by Tinubu claiming that he announced the removal of fuel subsidy out of courage. Recall that Tinubu had stated that his inauguration address on May 29 2023, did not include removal of petroleum subsidy.
Tinubu had said, “When I was declared a winner, I fell almost sick with joy. A few friends visited. So I asked the question, you asked me to bring this trophy, this victory what do you do with it? I won. We must change Nigeria with it.
“And then Wale Edun and co, we started debating, putting my speech together without the question on subsidy. I got to the podium, I was possessed with courage and I declared that the subsidy is gone.”
Reacting to Tinubu’s statement via Twitter, Oseni wrote: “It is shocking to note that subsidy was removed with no plan. “The “subsidy is gone thing”was announced in a said courageous move—Courage without planning is dangerous, Do we know how much hardship we have plunged the people?”
