The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has warned President Tinubu against imposing the 5% fuel tax his administration is clamouring for.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele stated that imposing it will affect the second term ambition chances of Tinubu.
The prophet stated that the policy will be misinterpreted and, if care isn’t taken, will be treated like subsidy removal, which will spike something unpleasant against the government.
“Tinubu should look into the five percent fuel tax well, they will misinterpret it and it will count as a minus for Tinubu’s second term ambition.”
He noted that opposition will use it to campaign against him and that some governors will kick against it because, in the long run, the benefit will be one-sided.
“They will use it to campaign against him. The policy will be one-sided in the long run and some governors will kick against it.”
Furthermore, he advised Tinubu to cut down on taxation policies due to the current economic situation, explaining that it’s getting too much.
“Tinubu needs to work on the taxation of a thing, it’s becoming too much, he should not let it be like subsidy removal days.”
