Okupe counters Dangote on call for total removal of fuel subsidy
A former presidential spokesperson, Dr Doyin Okupe, on Tuesday said he was not in agreement with Aliko Dangote’s call for the complete removal of fuel subsidy.
Okupe expressed the position in an interview with NAN in Lagos.
DAILY POST had reported that Dangote, owner of the 650,000 barrels per day Dangote Refinery, had in an interview with Bloomberg urged the Nigerian Government to end fuel subsidy completely.
Speaking during the 26-minute interview in New York on Monday, Dangote said the time was right to end subsidy, which, he said, had cost the country trillions of naira.
Reacting, Okupe said: “With utmost respect, I disagree with Aliko Dangote on his suggestion that the government should completely end subsidy now.
“Petrol is the economic oxygen of Nigerians, whether rich or poor. This is not the situation in other countries of the world.”
The former Director-General of the Peter Obi Presidential Campaign said that with the coming up of local refineries, some level of succour should be given to Nigerians.
According to him, with the allocation of 450,000 barrels a day for local consumption, Nigeria can combine the advantage of local production with local consumption and determine the price to sell crude to local refineries.
“We can use opportunities that these local refineries avail us, ensuring adequate fuel supply with the dedicated or allocated daily crude oil for local consumption, which is outside OPEC quota.
“So, whatever we do with it is our internal affairs, it is a way of providing some level of comfort.
“We can sell this daily crude oil allocation for local consumption cheaply to determine the average pump price of PMS (Premium Motor Spirit) in the country.
“For instance, the price of Nigerian crude per barrel is $77, we can decide to sell to Dangote refinery at $35 or $37 per barrel, thereby having made adjustments of processing fees and profit margin, the pump price of petroleum can come down to N500 or N600 per litre.
“This will bring major relief, comfort and succour to the masses,” he said.

Minimum wage: Work in progress for Kwara workers – NLC
Chairman, Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, in Kwara State, Comrade Murtala Olayinka, has said efforts are ongoing with other stakeholders to ensure implementation of the new minimum wage.
Speaking at the World Teachers Day in Ilorin, Comrade Murtala disclosed that the committee constituted by the state government on minimum wage was working round the clock towards ensuring that the policy was implemented.
“I urge teachers in the state to exercise patience, at the end of the day, we will come out with something tangible that will make everybody smile,” he added.
In his speech, state chairman of Nigeria Union of Teachers, Yusuf Agboola, commended the state government for prompt payment of teachers’ salaries, cash-backing of Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM) teachers’ promotions of 2021 and 2022 and the recent approval of 2023 and 2024 promotion.
Yusuf, however, listed some challenges still faced by teachers such as “incorrect implementation of 27.5 percent Teachers Specific Allowance (TSA) for TRN certificated and 21 percent of non TRN certificated teachers.
“This problem is peculiar to only Kwara State in the entire federation,” he asserted.
According to Yusuf, other challenges include non-implementation of November 2023 palliatives for teachers under TESCOM, non implementation of annual increment steps for SUBEB teachers for many years, non-recruitment of more teachers for senior secondary schools despite massive retirements that occurred between 2022 and 2024, non-payment of allowance for teachers in rural areas, adding that the government was yet to key into the 65/40 years harmonized retirement age for teachers in Nigeria.
Chairman of the Kwara State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB), Professor Shehu Adaramaja, also assured that teachers would be taken care of in the new minimum wage.
