Bode George Urges Tinubu to Cut Fuel Price to N300 for a Festive Relief
Bode George, a prominent chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has called on President Bola Tinubu to ease the financial burden on Nigerians by reducing the pump price of petrol to N300 per liter for the festive season.
George suggested that this price reduction should take effect from mid-December through the end of January, a period he described as critical for all Nigerians, regardless of religion or background.
During a press conference in Lagos on Wednesday, the former PDP Deputy National Chairman emphasized the importance of these two months for people across the country.
He explained that December and January are universally recognized as times of celebration, reflection, and family bonding.
According to George, lowering fuel prices temporarily would allow Nigerians to enjoy the holidays without the heavy strain of rising living costs.
“There are two months in any calendar year that are very significant,” George said.
“Whether you are Christian, Muslim, atheist, or traditionalist, these months are a time when families come together, communities celebrate, and people look forward to a sense of joy and unity.
Reducing petrol prices to N300 per liter during this period would be a meaningful gesture.”
He added that the government is capable of absorbing any financial losses that might arise from the temporary price cut.
“The federal government can bear the cost,” George insisted.
“It is time for President Tinubu to give back to Nigerians and show them that their well-being is a priority.”
George also referenced recent news about First Lady Oluremi Tinubu’s donation of N1 billion to a university, suggesting that such generosity could be extended to the broader population.
“If the First Lady can give N1 billion to a university, contributing to reducing fuel prices for millions of struggling Nigerians should not be out of reach.
This act would send a wave of joy and relief to households across the country.”
Former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani declines invitation to judge the Miss World Nigeria Beauty Pageant.
It was reported that the position of a judge was offered to Shehu Sani by Ben Murray Bruce, founder of Silverbird Group. However, Sani rejected the offer to judge the event.
Ben Bruce takes to social media to invite the former senator to be present at the event and sit as a judge.
Shebu Sani then responded by stating “You should have send me a formal letter and with full benefits attached to it after I have passed the Judgment. I appreciate the honour from a good friend. Unfortunately, I’ll be unavailable on that day. I wish you a successful outing.”
Nigerian Comedian, Mr Macaroni expresses dissatisfaction with the Governor of Lagos State over traffic issues.
It can be reported that Lagos has been suffering through a serious traffic phase. The reason behind this was revealed to be the Independence Bridge repairs.
Governor Sanwo Olu then pleaded with Lagosians to bear with the traffic as the repair is necessary. “Let’s think outside the box. If you don’t have business to do in Victoria Island in the next 2 to 3 weeks, conduct your business online and plan ahead.”
However, Mr Macaroni reacts to the Governor’s plea by stating “If the government had any regard whatsoever for the people of Lagos, these measures and more extensive ones would have been taken before yesterday to make this process as painless as possible for the people.”
He lamented on the serious effect that this traffic has taken on people’s day to day life and shared that the government didn’t consider its people.
Michelle Obama recently shared that when she first met Barack Obama, he wasn’t “financially sound.”
The couple crossed paths in 1988 when Barack joined a law firm in Chicago, where Michelle was already working. On a recent podcast episode she hosts with her brother, Craig, Michelle reflected on the importance of financial stability in a relationship.
During a conversation with British author Jay Shetty, Craig asked Michelle, “Would you be attracted to a guy who’s not financially stable when you meet him?”
Without hesitation, Michelle replied, “Uh, I married one.”
Craig, who seemed to have set her up for that response, laughed and jokingly said, “Don’t you like that alley-oop I just threw you? In basketball, you just point—you don’t even have to say it.”
