Senator Shehu Sani has reacted to the Federal governments’ decision to give poor Nigerians N5000 after the fuel subsidy is removed from February 2022.
The Minister of Finance, Zaina Ahmed, on Tuesday, disclosed that poor Nigerians will be given the sum of N5000 as transport grant once fuel subsidy has been removed. It is projected that a litre of fuel will increase to N340 when the subsidy is removed.
Sani in a tweet posted this morning said the increase in petrol will cause an increase across all sectors in the economy. He said that the Federal government must be living on Mars to believe that the N5000 can solve any problem.
