While urging Mr. president to consider sacking the CBN governor, he said, “we are calling on President Buhari to rise to his responsibilities by putting an end to the issue of fuel scarcity, hoarding, and unregulated sales of the commodity”.

He also urged Buhari to implore NNPC to find means of providing an adequate supply of the commodity nationwide to ease the suffering of Nigerians as well as long queues being observed nationwide.

“It should be noted that should the economic hardship persist unaddressed, it is most capable of bringing out the beast in Nigerians, which may hurt the forthcoming general elections.

“We are calling on the commission led by Mr. Gbenga Komolafe to promptly rise to the occasion while charging his men on the need for proactiveness, and diligence basically to rescue the Nation from the scarcity, hoarding of the commodity and unregulated sale of the product.”
