Makinde Proposes Fair Fuel Pricing | Nigeria News

Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde is challenging Nigeria’s fixation on the petrol subsidy debate, arguing the real issue is whether the country’s petroleum pricing system is fair and transparent. He insists citizens deserve to understand how pump prices are determined — from crude costs to refining and taxes — and rejects the idea that Nigerians should pay more to curb cross-border smuggling, calling it a government failure. Makinde proposes shifting the national conversation toward reforming the pricing framework to ensure equitable benefit from Nigeria’s oil wealth, and he plans to unveil his own alternative model soon to spark a more informed, constructive dialogue.
