Governors of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) have thrown their weight behind President Bola Tinubu’s decision to terminate petrol subsidy.

They affirmed that the Tinubu-led administration is simply fulfilling one of its campaign promises while also assuring that measures will be implemented to alleviate the impact of subsidy withdrawal.

Chairman of the APC Governors’ Forum and Imo State governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma made the declaration on Wednesday following a meeting with the National Working Committee (NWC) led by Senator Abdullahi Adamu.

Uzodinma highlighted that both the leading opposition presidential candidates, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), had also pledged to remove the subsidy due to its unsustainable nature.

“As a Forum, we are committed to the ideals of the government, which is also our party. The federal government belongs to the APC; it is an APC-led government, and all the promises made in our party’s manifesto during the campaigns are meant to be fulfilled,” Uzodinma stated.

“On the issue of fuel subsidy, all the presidential candidates during the campaigns promised that they would remove fuel subsidy.

“The Buhari government, before leaving office, informed us that fuel subsidy was no longer sustainable. What we are discussing now is the implementation process – how to carry out the program in a way that will minimise the impact on the people, and I believe the government is working on it. I have confidence in the ability of the current president to make decisions that are in the best interest of our people and the country.”
