Speaking on Saturday during an interview on the Mic On podcast, Dare was asked what part of the bear Tinubu has poked.
Sunday Dare, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity Communications to President Bola Tinubu, has stated that some individuals will never forget the President for his bold decisions to float the Naira and remove fuel subsidy.
Speaking on Saturday during an interview on the Mic On podcast, Dare was asked what part of the bear Tinubu has poked.
He replied: “Look at the reforms that are ongoing. Take the oil sector. Some of these things are off the radar.
“You know how many people benefit from the subsidy value chain? Nigerians from all parts of the country.
“I don’t want to characterize them as oil mafia. But we know there are people who tried to stop the oil subsidy removal.
“Let’s take the floating of the Naira. Billionaires were created within months under the previous government. The arbitrage was massive.
“Tinubu had the choice to let it go. To let the party go on. In any case, everyone would have benefited from it. But he put a stop to it.
“In that chain, there are people today who will never forgive Tinubu for floating the naira and removing the subsidy from forex.”
