The Nigerian Minister of State for Petroleum Resources Timipre Sylva has stated that the recent removal of fuel subsidy in the country was a painful but necessary decision. The governments decision to end the subsidy has caused a rise in fuel prices and sparked protests across the country. Sylva explained that the subsidy was no longer sustainable due to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to redirect funds to more pressing sectors. He also assured Nigerians that the government is committed to providing alternative sources of energy and creating a more efficient and transparent fuel pricing system.
