The Peoples Democratic Party has said the reduction in the price of petrol is not an attempt by it to woo voters.
Its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, told journalists in Abuja on Monday that the Federal Government had in 2007 taken a similar action.
Metuh said, “This is not the first time that we have had decrease in the cost of petrol in this country. You will recall that when the late President Umaru Yar’Adua was in office, he reduced the pump price from N75 to N66. That was not politics. He did it in June 2007. And there was no election.
“In this particular instance, it has nothing to do with the election.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
