Femi Falana, a popular Human rights lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria has said the Federal Government’s N5 billion fuel subsidy removal palliatives are diversionary and a waste.
Falana disclosed this on Friday during an interview on Channels Television.
According to him, Tinubu should address the root cause: the dollarization of the country’s economy.
