In a scathing remark, actor and politician Kenneth Okonkwo has lambasted Nigerians for their hypocrisy regarding fuel prices. He pointed out the irony of those who vehemently protested against N140 per litre fuel prices at Ojota years ago, only to now pay N1000 per litre after spending hours in queues.
Okonkwo’s statement has sparked a heated debate on social media, with some users defending their past actions and others admitting to being hypocritical. The actor’s words have resonated with many who feel that Nigerians should be consistent in their demands for affordable fuel prices.
The fuel price debate has been a long-standing issue in Nigeria, with many calling for the government to take action to reduce the burden on citizens. Okonkwo’s comments have added fuel to the fire, highlighting the need for Nigerians to be more proactive in demanding change.
