APC Presidential candidate, Tinubu
By Francis Ugwoke
The Founder, National Association of Government Approved Freight Forwarders (NAGAFF), Dr. Boniface Aniebonam has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to investigate all allegations of fraud surrounding the regime of fuel subsidy in the country.
Describing the removal of the fuel subsidy as a courageous move, Aniebonam who is also the Founder of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), said it would be a good idea to carry out investigation of the alleged fraud.
He said addressing the issue of corruption surrounding the fuel subsidy regime was imperative.
Aneibonam who spoke to newsmen in his office said, “Concerning the fuel subsidy removal, I as the founder of the NNPP, I will say leadership is about courage and followership is about service. It is all about sacrifice. I would have preferred that the corruption aspect is tackled, because it is obvious there is corruption. And we will get it right if we all come together.
“Now that subsidy has gone, what makes us great is our capacity to recover quickly. And it is important to have the government put the information out there through the recognised media. This would manage information properly, than leaving it to social media where people would mix up issues.”
Meanwhile, both Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) have said that will embark on industrial action to protest against the fuel subsidy removal.
