Nigerian Civil Society Applauds 15% Tariff on Fuel Imports to End Fake Products and Scarcity
Nigerian civil society organizations, under the Coalition of Civil Society Organizations (CSO), laud President Bola Tinubu's decision to impose a 15% import duty on refined petroleum products to curb the influx of substandard fuel and address perennial scarcity issues. The CSO believes this move will support domestic refineries like Dangote in operating at full capacity, preventing undercutting by smuggled or low-cost imports.
They advocate for transparency in revenue allocation and urge opposition parties to collaborate for the nation's progress.
