| Protesters |
Action Front group on Friday, May 13
organized a protest against the government’s policy which triggered the
increase of a litre of fuel from N87 to N145.
The
protest witnessed the heavy presence of market men and women who were in their
hundreds, as they complained about the prices of food and the cost of living.
The group led by its coordinator in
Oyo state, Dr Demola Aremu started its march from University of Ibadan with a
call on the federal government to reverse the decision in the interest of the
Nigerian masses.
According to him, the present
administration had only given Nigerians negative changes in salary payment,
power, food prices, roads and “fraud in the increment of price of fuel.” “Any
government that encourages petroleum product marketers to source for money from
secondary market is unserious, fraudulent and irresponsible,” Dr Aremu opined.
He described the petrol price increment as a
direct attack on the Nigerian people, adding that the only achievement of the
present administration is high inflation.
The protest witnessed
the heavy presence of market men and women who were in their hundreds,
