ice from April 1, 2020, to take full effect on September 1, 2020. This, according to the government, is in the best interest of all.

We would recall that in some few months back the government had increased the pump price from N121.50 to N138.60, N143.80 and N145 per litre at different times, on the advice of the Petroleum Product Pricing Regulatory Agency (PPPRA), after reviewing market fundamentals and operating costs.

Meanwhile, the Federal Government had come out openly to assure Nigerians that the increase is for the best interest of Nigeria.

Pre covid-19, we were the poverty capital of the world. At the hight of covid-19 with the economy sort of shut down, more Nigerians possibly become poorer. At this time of economic opening & easying, incentives, interventions, dropping of commercial loan interest and so forth should be the vanguard of any policy thrust, not policies that are inflationary. Inflationary policy increases poverty, and when such policy is timed wrongly, your guess is as good as mine.
