Fuel Palliative Has No Effect on Transport Fare in Osun – motorists

Motorists and commuters have claimed that the reported fuel palliative has no significant effect on transport fare during its operation.

Though a visit to some NNPC stations revealed that fuel price still remained #1,350 per litre in Osogbo, the few weeks of price stability have had no effect on intra- and inter-city transport fares.

A commercial transport operator in Ede, Bowofola Adegoke said price of petrol fluctuates between #1,300 and 1,450 before the said palliative which according to him does not called for arbitrary hike or reductions in transport fare.

Also, a commuter who claimed ignorance of the palliative said it has neither a positive nor a negative impact on him, since the amount he spends on daily transportation to work has remained stable.
