Some residents of Warri and Effurun metropolis in Delta state embarked on a protest on Wednesday, September 4, to lament the recent increase in the price of petrol.
Hundreds of market women and Keke riders carrying different placards marched through the streets calling on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to urgently intervene and reverse the fuel price hike.
Some of the placards displaced read "Tinubu, intervene now to alleviate commuters' suffering"; "Tinubu, activate Warri and Kaduna refineries without further delay".The protesters blocked some major roads as they registered their displeasure.
"We are suffering in silence; the fuel price hike is a killer." While most of the fuel stations in the area have been shut down, the few ones that were opened were selling above N1,000 per litre.
