News Imo Activist In Lone Protest At Gov’t House Over Fuel Price Hike

Since December 2022 till now, fuel sells for between N400 and N450 per litre in many parts of the State.

Iwuala, the founder of Genius Eyes International Foundation for the Hopeless, told journalists that the fuel price hike had caused untold hardship on the economy of the State and its people. He called on the State government to intervene and order the Department of Petroleum Resources in the State to compel fuel station owners to start selling at the government-approved pump price.

He said it was unfortunate that a litre of fuel sold for N450 and the authorities have not done anything to address what he described as broad daylight robbery. Iwuala said, “How is it that other States sell almost the approved pump price but no private station sells at that price in Imo? Within one month, prices in Imo have skyrocketed to the heavens, leaving many families unable to feed. How long can people be reduced to beggars just to feed because their income has suddenly become almost useless?
