An energy expert, Prince Mustapha Audu, has accused the federal government of mishandling the issue of subsidy on petrol instead of solving the problem.
He said, ‘‘It seems that the country is now facing the highest level of subsidy payment whereas the government had earlier claimed it would no longer pay fuel subsidy. Queues are returning to the filling stations simply because petrol marketers are given instructions to hoard the products. Audu, also a politician, who was an aspirant in the last gubernatorial election in Kogi State, said the nation’s economy is in bad shape as almost every single sector is either on strike or holding the country to ransom one way or the other.
