N800 per litre: Deji Adeyanju mocks APC for diesel price hike

Popular political activist and convener of Concerned Nigerians, Deji Adeyanju Deji, has mocked the All Progressives Congress (APC) controlled Federal Government for the hike in price of diesel in the country.

Adeyanju, who is a strong critic of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration, criticised the regime for increasing the price of diesel to N800 per litre as against the N110 the product was sold in 2015.

He said this via his Twitter handle on Wednesday.

The activist wrote: “Diesel now N800 per liter. Businesses are dying in Nigeria. It was N110 under corruption in 2015. This CHANGE and integrity is evil.”

In another tweet, Adeyanju said he was tired of criticizing the government, adding that the solution to the bad economy would be his relocation to another country.

He said: “Nigeria is almost a failed nation. Things weren’t this bad during the civil war or the colonial era. What can we do aside JAPA to halt the decline of the economy because I’m sincerely tired of criticizing?

“Criticism won’t enable me buy diesel at N110 per liter, pay less electric tariff yet no light or buy dollar at N185.

“Let’s not even talk about the inflation or skyrocketing prices at the market. Presidential aides and those paid with tax payers’ money to come up with solutions are now comparing failure rates during the previous Govt and this one.”
