The current petrol debacle led to a more than doubling of fuel prices on Monday morning. This, in turn, has spurred an increase in transportation costs, reports say. Unsurprisingly, Nigerians are furious. This is because, for many of them, the current subsidy retainment represents one of the few tangible benefits they receive as citizens of Africa’s largest crude-oil producer.
