Former Kogi State lawmaker, Dino Melaye, has condemned
President Muhammadu Buhari’s government over the increment in pump price of
petrol.
The increment was approved by Pipelines and Product
Marketing Company (PPMC), a subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation, NNPC on Wednesday.
The new price has since stirred reactions from Nigerians and
prominent individuals on social media.
Reacting, Melaye described the increase in petrol price
during a pandemic as ”grossly insensitive and wicked by the government”
According to him, the development shows how the present
administration is taking advantage of poor Nigerians.
Melaye on his Twitter page wrote: “ It is grossly
insensitive, wicked and deliberately callous for Government to increase pump
price of petrol in a time like this.
“Men of good conscience will not watch the lives of poor
Nigerians taking for granted with outrageous ignominy by a stationary
Government.”
