According to Christopher in an interview, he explained that Because Tinubu did not make plans to reduce the impact of the elimination of gasoline subsidies before declaring it during his inauguration on May 29, Nigerians and the NLC were forced to protest and go on a statewide strike. He claimed that President Buhari promise to Revive at least one refinery during the campaign election but he failed and Nigerians cannot forgive the Him because he refused to revive at least one Refinery In eight Years.

The Sun paper reported that Christopher B. Sarki, in an exclusive interview said; “Nigerians and NLC were forced to protest and embark on a nationwide strike because President Tinubu did not make provisions to cushion the effects of fuel subsidy removal before making the declaration during his inauguration on May 29.”

He added; “I don’t see palliatives as real means to cushion the effects of subsidy removal because if government increases worker’s salary, market women will also increase price of food items, landlords will increase house rents and price of other materials and services will as well go up. However, I’m glad that Tinubu has assured Nigerians that the Port Harcourt Refinery will be fixed in five months”

He stated further; “Nigerians cannot forgive former President Buhari because he failed to revive at least one refinery in eight years. Buhari promised to revive the nation’s refineries in 2014 and 2019 during his campaign if elected President of Nigeria, but surprisingly, he could not fix even one”

The recent statement by Christopher B. Sarki which was shared by The Sun paper on its verified Twitter page has generated a lot of reactions from many Nigerians on the social media platform.
