‘The Timing Is Wrong’

Meanwhile, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s government has been criticized by two former federal lawmakers, Senator Andrew Uchendu and Honourable Dachung Bagos, following the reduction of electricity subsidy.

The former lawmakers argued that the timing was wrong especially with the ongoing hardship being faced by Nigerians as a result of the removal of fuel subsidy.

During an interview on Channels TV Politics Today, Uchendu and Bagos said with the removal of subsidy on petroleum, and the timing of the electricity tariff hike would further bring untold hardship on Nigerians.
