Tinubu accuses the PDP of attempting to blackmail the FG.By sabotaging the fuel supply
There is a shortage of fuel in many locations in Nigeria, and in some places lines extend into the streets. The cost of the goods has increased nationwide as well.
Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) presidential candidate, has charged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with destroying the county’s fuel supply in order to use it as leverage against the federal government.
There is a shortage of fuel in many locations in Nigeria, and in some places lines extend into the streets. The cost of the goods has increased nationwide as well.

“We are not the same as the party for the reduction of poverty.” They fell into poverty but had a decent reputation. “They have forgotten about our gas pipes for 16 years,” he declared on Thursday at an APC presidential campaign rally in Makurdi, Benue State.
“They are the saboteurs, as I referred to them yesterday. They granted permits for PMS and petroleum products to themselves, their allies, and their sympathisers. They altered the course and began forming queues. They started extorting money from the government. PDP, we are telling you that enough is enough.
In addition, he said that the PDP wasted funds intended to handle the country’s power sector, accusing the party of failing to solve it.
However, if elected president of Nigeria the following year, he pledged to implement student loans.
On February 25, “vote for your progress,” Tinubu reminded the crowd. Once you elect me, we will set up student loans, as I assure you on behalf of all of our students. The noise producers will not annoy us. We’ll provide you with education.
His remarks followed a similar one he made on Wednesday in Abeokuta, Ogun State, in which he attributed the ongoing gasoline crisis in Nigeria to saboteurs.
The former governor of Lagos State asserted that the same group of people is responsible for the limited supply of the new naira notes.
