Atiku’s fuel subsidy and Tinubu’s church rat, By Bolaji Abdullahi

Unfortunately, the government has reacted mostly with personal abuse directed at Atiku or with statements that cynically denies the lived reality of the majority of citizens. Atiku’s subsidy declaration has effectively turned the table. The government has now found itself in opposition against a daring idea that is made popular largely due to its catastrophic mismanagement of a policy that used to be a point of consensus among presidential candidates. This administration has had three years to make the people see the wisdom in the removal of fuel subsidy, if not the full benefits, but they did not. They are not likely to achieve that before the elections.
