"The government has to look into the issue of fuel pump price increase. Fuel politics and its management must be properly looked into as it controls the activities of most businesses in the country. “As it is, how many average Nigerians can afford to fill up their cars? I speak for the common man. I pray that the government gets the wisdom to do the right thing that can bring succour to the common man. Same with the rising cost of food in the country.”The Bishop took a swipe at the political development in the country, condemning the increase in the pump price of fuel which has literally affected every facet of life in the country.
