Fuel discount: Tinubu govt woke up too late - Abati

Reuben Abati, a former presidential aide and Morning Show anchor on Arise Television, criticized Nigeria's federal government for its 30-day petrol discount, saying the administration acted too late to provide relief to Nigerians. He questioned how the discount would be funded and who would bear the costs, criticizing the continued borrowing despite the removal of fuel subsidies aimed at increasing revenue and fighting corruption. Abati urged the government to publish detailed plans and argued that the intervention should have been introduced earlier.
