Eminent lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN) is very angry with the Federal Government for importing fuel, even from non-producing countries, instead of fixing its four refineries.

He said; “This is an oil-producing country and on a yearly basis huge money is earmarked for fixing refineries.”

“But instead of fixing the refineries, the government imports fuel from other countries, including from countries that don’t produce fuel. Market forces exist in the imagination of imperialist.”

“As far as our laws are concerned, there is no place for market forces determining prices of petrol.”

“PPPRA just woke up one morning and said they want to sell petrol for N212 and the President and no one knows about it? And no one has been fired?”

“The law only permits the Petroleum Minister to such within legal frameworks.”
