Buhari says removal of subsidy makes economic sense but social nonsense —Aide

The Presidency has disclosed the reasons for the refusal of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration to remove fuel subsidy by the end of June 2023.

Femi Adesina, the Special Adviser, Media and Publicity to President Buhari, made this disclosure on Tuesday, during an interview on AriseTV ‘Morning Show.’

Last week, the government in a statement issued by Yunusa Tanko Abdullahi, Special Adviser, Media and Communications, to the Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Mrs. Zainab Ahmed, explained that contrary to media reports the Buhari’s government has merely expanded the subsidy removal committee.
