Tinubu Broke Record In 24hrs – Charly Boy
The pronouncement by President Asiwaju Bola Tinubu regarding fuel subsidy, which has resulted in the scarcity of the petroleum commodity, has prompted a response from Nigerian artist and activist Charles Oputa, better known by his stage name Charly Boy.
President Bola Tinubu’s proposal to eliminate fuel subsidies has drawn criticism from Charly Boy, who claims the recently inaugurated leader has broken a record.
During his inaugural address on Monday, the president had stated that the subsidy would no longer be maintained.
The development has continued to trigger mixed reactions from stakeholders. While some applauded the president for the bold step, others think that the policy is coming at the wrong time.
Speaking on the matter, Charly Boy lamented that Tinubu’s controversial remark on the subsidy had triggered an increase in the price of fuel in parts of the country.

In a tweet on his official Twitter handle, the entertainer wondered if those lauding the president on the move would not suffer the consequences.
He wrote, “Tinubu don break record within 24 hours after swearing-in. Fuel scarcity and fuel price have increased after announcing fuel subsidy removal. Day 1 hitting the ground running.
“The question is, are the BATIS going to buy this fuel in different prices from what We Buy??? We go soon learn”.
