Addressing Newsmen at an emergency meeting concerning the recent increment in fuel pump price,the National President of the Emerging Leaders, Godstime Chukwubuikem Samuel stated that it is obvious that a cabal in the petroleum sector is hell bent on ridiculing the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration by instilling all manners of hardship on Nigerians.

He noted that, the group is set to mobilze 50 youths per states and 1000 from the state capital so as to protest Mele Kyari out of office.
“This time, of President Tinubu refuses to heed to our demands to sack Mele Kyari of our Petroleum sector to breath, we will have no choice than to force Mele Kyari out of office.With the recent increment in fuel pump price, I wont be surprised to the see the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun join us to protest against this high level of disservice to Nigerians as we will occupy NNPCL headquarters in the coming days until Mele Kyari is no more addressed as MD od NNPCL”, he submitted
It will be recalled that recently the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation increased the fuel pump price from N890 to N1030 which has been greeted by so many Nigerians with mixed feelings.
