The exact thing Tinubu said when Jonathan removed fuel subsidy in 2012 by Toks2008(m): 6:49pm On Jun 04, 2023 |
The publication was dated Wednesday, January 11, 2012, and was an edition of The Nation newspaper as published by Vintage Press Limited. It reads... ACTION Congress of Nigeria (ACN) national leader and former governor of Lagos State Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has accused the a Jonathan presidency of shirking its so- cial contract with the people by suddenly removing petrol subsidy He, however, provided a window out of the crisis: if subsidy must be removed at all, it must never be at one fell swoop. He said it must be on calibrated phrases, on which the promised gains are mea- sured and confirmed before moving to the next phase of removal. "Government must modify the sudden and complete removal of the subsidy. Elther we restore the subsidy or use the funds for other social purposes," Tinubu counselled in a special statement he cap- tioned, "Removal of oil subsidy-Presi dent Jonathan breaks social contract with the people' and which he personally signed. "If we are to use the funds for other programmes, these programmes shall be placed on parallel track with the subsidy. These were Tinubu's very own words so what happened?, why did he decide to go against his very own advise? 2 Likes 1 Share

Abeg we are tired of this noise. Jonathan is to be blamed for being a weakling. Had it been Peter Obi, he would have stood his ground. So toks2008 should we go back to 2012? We are now in 2023. Should the subsidy remain? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Ofunaofu:The difference between then & now, Jonathan in 2012 removed subsidy based on an executive order, you Nigerians removed subsidy in 2021 via way of an act of legislation (National Assembly) aka the PIB Act. No need to waste your time, it is law, paying fuel subsidy is a crime now in Nigeria. Only the Supreme Court of Nigeria could give you hope, & they will throw the request out. |
