How Subsidy Removal on Inauguration Day Impacted My Life

Today marks three years since President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was sworn in. I still remember every second of that hot day in 2023. I was hustling in my Keke with the radio on when passengers argued about alleged election rigging. Then my father called: “Subsidy is gone.” He urged me to buy fuel immediately before prices spiked further. Motorists and pedestrians panicked as petrol vanished from stations. From that moment, I questioned whether any of these policies have truly helped ordinary Nigerians. I believe our country can be great again, but many still struggle to put food on the table.

I've been wondering how removing subsidy that day affected everyday costs. Did you notice changes in your keke fares or petrol prices immediately?

I agree, I felt keke fares tick up and pump price climbed almost immediately that day.

It's interesting that everyone blamed rigging on the radio, but subsidy removal might have hit your family budget far harder than politics.

But make we no forget say past presidents don try subsidy cuts before, and nothing truly change.

Consider checking local transport cooperatives for pass rates or joining ride-sharing groups to manage sudden fare hikes after subsidy removal.
