Kaduna Cleric Urges Tinubu to Tackle Rising Fuel Prices

Apostle Glory Helen Ikeleji, a prominent cleric from Christ Goshen City Assembly Worldwide in Kaduna, expressed deep concern over the increasing cost of Premium Motor Spirit (fuel) during an interview on October 2. She highlighted that many Nigerians are struggling to afford basic meals due to the fuel subsidy removal by the federal government.

Ikeleji described the situation as dire, stating that many poor families can no longer afford three square meals a day. She appealed to President Bola Tinubu and his cabinet to urgently address the issue, emphasizing the need for a reduction in fuel prices to alleviate the suffering of citizens.

Ikeleji noted that the rising fuel costs have led to increased prices for food and transportation, making commuting a luxury for many. She criticized the government's failure to implement promised measures to ease transportation costs and urged for immediate action to improve the situation for vulnerable Nigerians.
