Pastor Giwa said Compressed Natural Gas, CNG, should not take the place of petroleum in Nigeria.
The Senior Pastor of Awaiting The Second Coming of Christ Ministry, Adewale Giwa has sent a message to President Bola Tinubu.
Speaking on Thursday, he urged President Bola Tinubu to fulfill his campaign promise of slashing the price of fuel below N175 per liter.
Pastor Giwa said Tinubu should be able to keep to his promise with Dangote Refinery in operation.
Speaking with DAILY POST, Pastor Giwa said Compressed Natural Gas, CNG, should not take the place of petroleum in Nigeria.
According to Pastor Giwa: “This Compressed Natural Gas, CNG introduced by the federal government is a disaster.
“As we all know, it is a natural gas that has been compressed to a high pressure, which makes it easy to explode.
“The government does not think about safety. CNG can not take the position of petroleum, impossible. They should find a way to reduce the price of petroleum rather than the CNG. It’s not going to work.
“When President Bola Tinubu was campaigning in Ogun State, the price of fuel was N175, and he promised to still bring it down. With Dangote Refinery in Nigeria, the price has gone up to over N1,000.
“I really want the president to keep his promise in drastically bringing the price of petroleum down below N175 that he vowed in Ogun State during his campaign.”
