Former Vice President and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has questioned the rational behind the sudden increment of the pump price of petrol by the Federal Government.
The PDP Chief on his Facebook Page on Tuesday said the hike in fuel price does not in any way support certain claims regarding deregulation in Nigeria.
According to Atiku, his view on the matter stems from his experience as a businessman who is seeing things from an economic perspective.
The elder statesman argued that in the US and Europe, fuel prices are far lower than they were in 2019, adding that if Nigeria truly deregulated, then fuel prices should have dropped
