President Bola Tinubu has been encouraged by Bode George, a leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to lower the price of gasoline at the pump to N300 per liter.
George suggested that Tinubu lower the petrol pump price between mid-December and the end of January.
The PDP’s former Deputy National Chairman claimed that this will allow Nigerians to enjoy the holiday season.
It’s time for Tinubu to return to Nigerians, George stated during a news conference in Lagos on Wednesday.
There are two months in every calendar year that are very significant, according to George. It’s widespread and prevalent worldwide, regardless of your religious beliefs—Christian, Muslim, agnostic, or conservative.
“The most significant months are December and January.
It is recommended that the price of gasoline be lowered to N300 per liter starting in mid-December and continuing until the end of January. The government is able to cover the losses.

Nigerians would be pleased this season if such safeguards were put into place, the PDP chieftain said.
George stated that she might help cover the expenses if First Lady Oluremi Tinubu were to provide N1 billion to a university.
You will be spreading many happy messages throughout the houses and tribes with this,” he continued. Everyone in Nigeria will be pleased since it will have a favorable effect during this time of year.
It’s a struggle, but he can overcome it. Madam First Lady may put N1 billion into the treasury to cover this expense if she could give it to a university. What is the issue? so that, at N300 per liter, everyone may get a good night’s sleep.
In the interim, the influence of the prayers and joy will raise spirits by the end of January. And the All-Powerful God will grant our requests. During the months of December and January, we must make people happy.
