Fayose Turns Fuel Attendant, Dispenses Fuel At N145/ Litre

Controversial Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose on Christmas Day supervised the distribution of petrol at the government-determined price of N145 per litre in a filling station in the state.

The governor reportedly engaged in sale of the property at Alade Filling Station along Iyin Road in the state capital.
He said he took the decision to empathise with the people and ease their suffering in getting the product.
Fayose disclosed that reports had reached him that the APC-led government was devising a means to increase the pump price of fuel to increase the suffering of the masses.
He said, “This is the sacrifice we have to make as a responsible government to alleviate the suffering of the people, because this is a black Christmas. They cant move.
“It is time for Nigerians to take me seriously that the Federal Government wants to increase the pump price. Ordinarily, the N145 is too much for the people not to talk of increasing it. Today I tell you that there is queue even at black market.
“This also why I decided not to be part of the $1 billion Boko Haram funds because our needs varies. Not until Nigeria is run like a federation, we will only be wasting our time. People must decide the way forward for Nigeria.

have said it before that 2019 us an opportunity for Nigerians to make a choice, either to change the change or to continue this suffering.”
However, President Muhammadu Buhari has reportedly kicked against petrol pump price increase because of its negative spiral effect on the socio-economic life of Nigerians.
