Activist politician, Omoyele Sowore has revealed that the Edo North Senator, Adams Oshiomhole had a deal with former military Head of State, Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida to carry out the first fuel price increment in Nigeria in 1992.
Sowore also claimed that Oshiomhole secretly met former President Olusegun Obasanjo and asked him to increase the price of fuel.
He disclosed this while featuring on a podcast held by Glitch Africa Studios.
Sowore said, “Oshiomhole was never an activist. You can check this out anywhere. In 1992, Oshiomhole and Pascal Bafial, a former NLC President, had a deal with Babangida to increase fuel price and supported it.
“I did a press conference where we named him as an enemy of students because of what he did when they first started the whole fuel price increase, Oshiomhole was part of it.”
Sowore also claimed that during the “time of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Oshiomhole would meet Obasanjo and ask him to increase the fuel price.
“We will fight small and you will bring it back to where it is supposed to be. You are happy, I’m happy. That was what Oshiomhole was doing.
“He can challenge me that I said this. In fact, when Abiola’s election was annulled, part of the places the students invaded was the NLC secretariat in Yaba because they were in bed with the military, Pascal Bafial and Oshiomhole were the labour leaders.
