Arise TV presenter Rufai Oseni has voiced concern after noticing a sharp increase in petrol prices within a short period.

Sharing his experience in a video, he said he encountered a higher pump price during a visit to a filling station, noting that the change happened in less than a day. The development, he suggested, adds to the strain many Nigerians are already facing.

He questioned the absence of clear measures to ease the impact of subsidy removal on citizens, especially as petrol remains a daily necessity. While acknowledging some level of adjustment in other fuel sectors, he indicated that the cost of petrol continues to pose a challenge.

His comments sparked debate online, with reactions split between criticism of rising fuel costs and differing views on his position.
