People's Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain and former House of Representatives candidate in Ekiti State, Lere Olayinka, has called on President Bola Tinubu to sack the Group Managing Director (GMD) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL), Mr. Mele Kolo Kyari, over the ongoing scarcity of petrol in the country. Read Also: Naira Crashes Against Dollar at Black Market, Gains at NAFEM Window Olayinka, a media aide to former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, described as "funny and laughable" the NNPCL's claim that rain, lightning, and thunderstorms were responsible for the fuel scarcity, questioning when such weather conditions began to cause fuel shortages in Nigeria or anywhere else in the world. The entire country is facing a severe fuel shortage, with most parts of the nation experiencing scarcity for more than two months. In many areas, Nigerians are purchasing petrol at exorbitant prices, ranging from ₦1,200.00 to ₦1,500.00 per liter. Chinese Firm Seizes Nigeria’s $57million Jet in Canada as Court Rejects Immunity Claim During a press conference in Abuja, NNPCL's Vice President (Downstream), Dapo Segun, attributed the fuel scarcity to recent rains, lightning, and thunderstorms. In response, Olayinka stated in Abuja on Wednesday that such an excuse from the NNPCL was a clear sign that those managing the organization were clueless about finding solutions to the persistent fuel shortage. He said, "Previously, Nigerians heard the dry season as an excuse for the lack of electricity. Now, rain, lightning, and thunderstorms are excuses for the lack of fuel. What a shame! This, to me, is the height of cluelessness demonstrated by Mele Kyari and his team. In the interest of Nigerians, who have been enduring the pains of this over two-month-long fuel scarcity, President Tinubu should show the NNPCL GMD and his team the exit door so that competent people can be appointed to run the organization. Read Also: Nosa Rex And Wife Exchange Sweet Messages On Their 9th Wedding Anniversary Describing Mele Kyari as "Mr. Promise and Fail," Olayinka recalled that when Kyari took office in 2019, he boasted that all four of the country's refineries would be operational before the end of President Buhari's administration in 2023. "It is now 2024, and not a single one of the four refineries is working," Olayinka added. He concluded by saying, "How can the same Mele Kyari still be directing the affairs of the NNPCL? I believe President Tinubu needs to demonstrate his seriousness about fixing Nigeria by removing this obviously incompetent management team led by Mele Kyari."

Protest: Arewa youths slam Fayose over ‘insulting comments’ against Northerners
ABUJA – The Arewa Youth Assembly has slammed former Governor Ayodele Fayose over his comments perceived as insulting to Northerners, sparking a call for protests across the 19 Northern states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). Fayose had stated during a love interview on Channels TV that the failure of the federal government to develop Nigeria was due to Northerners having many children, constituting a huge problem for the country. The reason why it is difficult for Tinubu to develop Nigeria is because Northerners are giving birth to children they can’t cater for,” Fayose said. The Arewa Youth Assembly deemed this comment an insult and a conspiracy against the North. Mohammed Salihu Danlami, Speaker of the Arewa Youth Assembly, in a statement on Wednesday, declared Fayose an ‘enemy of the North’. Danlami called on all Northerners to join the protest starting tomorrow unless Fayose apologizes. The Arewa Youth Assembly argued that their protest is a constitutional right, emphasizing that they will not accept anyone disrespecting their people. They also claimed to have played a crucial role in the emergence of President Bola Tinubu and his victory in the presidential election. Danlami stated, “We have also declared him (Fayose) an enemy of the North. For record purpose, after Allah, we can say without any doubt, that we were instrumental to the emergence of Tinubu as APC Presidential candidate and his victory in the Presidential election.
