The Progressives Governors Forum (PGF) has thrown its weight behind the Federal Government on the decision to remove petrol subsidy.
The Governors elected on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) expressed their support during a courtesy call on President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
However, the Governors voiced their concern over the sudden hike in petrol prices following the President’s inaugural speech.
Speaking to journalists after the meeting with the President, Chairman of the PGF and Imo Governor, Hope Uzodinma, condemned the price increase on what he described as “old stock”.
He called on Nigerians to rally behind the government’s decision to remove fuel subsidy.
