Nigerian social media personality Bobrisky has questioned the soaring cost of petrol in Nigeria, pointing out that fuel now costs as much as 1,600 naira per litre.
Bobrisky expressed shock at the sharp fuel price increase and compared his experience in Nigeria with the two years he spent living abroad.
He said he never witnessed fuel scarcity or overnight price spikes like what Nigerians face during his time outside the country.
His comments have sparked discussion among Nigerians concerned about how rising fuel costs affect transportation, businesses and the overall cost of living.
Many people have agreed that fuel prices drive up costs across the entire economy and that Nigerians have every right to question why prices have become so expensive, even in remote areas.
Some social media users countered that fuel prices abroad are also high, citing similar rates in countries like the United States.
Others noted that the focus on these issues sometimes gets overshadowed by other controversies dominating public conversation.
