    President Bola Tinubu has met with Nigerian major oil marketers over the removal of fuel subsidy.

    The marketers were led by Ogun state governor, Dapo Abiodun, who was a chairman of oil marketers association, to the Aso Rock Villa on Wednesday.

    The President’s meeting with the oil marketers comes amid the controversy and protests trailing the removal of subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit known as petrol.

    The President during his inaugural speech on May 29 at the Eagle Square in Abuja had announced the removal of subsidy payment on petrol. The President said that the immediate past administration of Muhammadu Buhari did not make provisions for subsidy in the 2023 budget beyond June.
