SDP 2023 Presidential Candidate Criticizes Tinubu Over 15% Import Duty on Refined Petroleum Products
The Social Democratic Party (SDP) 2023 presidential candidate has openly condemned President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s approval of a 15% import duty on refined petroleum products, calling it an “anti-people decision.”
He warned that the policy would further deepen the economic struggles of Nigerians by increasing fuel prices and putting more pressure on small businesses already battling inflation and high operational costs.
The SDP candidate emphasized that instead of adding more taxes, the government should prioritize the rehabilitation of local refineries, strengthen domestic production, and implement people-centered economic reforms aimed at reducing hardship.
According to him, real progress can only be achieved when leadership focuses on empowering citizens and making life easier for the average Nigerian.
