Fuel Price Hike: We Warned Nigerians Not to Vote APC – Labour Party

The leadership of the Labour Party (LP) has expressed displeasure over the recent increase in fuel price by the President Bola Tinubu-led administration.

National publicity secretary of the Labour Party, Obiora Ifoh, who condemned the new hike in the price of petrol in the country, stated that Nigerians were warned earlier before voting for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

While lamenting that the masses do not deserve the current treatment being meted out to them, Ifoh maintained that Nigerians ignored all warnings against voting the ruling party.

“The Labour Party has said that the latest adjustment in the petroleum Pump Price is just the beginning of hard times Nigerians will be facing under the All Progressives Congress-led administration,” Ifoh said.

“Recall that we had earlier warned that the bourgeoisie government in place can only enrich the upper class and inflict penury on the proletariat. You offer a paltry N8,000 to a family of five and extract all they have laboured for through obnoxious policies.

“Nigerians do not deserve what they are getting from the present government. The Labour Party condemns the attitude of the government to its people. This is even coming at a time the Nigerian currency has continued to devalue under the watch of this government. We are however optimistic that Nigeria will overcome the taskmaster of our time. We will soon witness the Promised Land.”
