The Senator representing Osun East Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Babajide Omoworare has declared that senators elected on the platform of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, will continue to fight against the move by President Goodluck Jonathan to remove oil subsidy.
Also, Senator Babafemi Ojudu yesterday called on the Nigerian workers and the Civil Society groups in the country to resist the proposed fuel subsidy removal by the federal government.
Omoworare who is the Vice Chairman of the Senate Committee on Federal Character said the decision of the ACN senators was born out of their determination to be on the side of the masses and also ensure welfarist policies and programmes by federal government.
Delivering a lecture entitled “Checks and Balances: Nigeria in Search of Credible and Sustainable Election” to mark the 2011 pen week of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ, Osun State Broadcasting Corporation, OSBC, chapel in Osogbo, Senator Omoworare stressed the need for all Nigerians to stand against the move to remove oil subsidy, saying time is not ripe for such development in Nigeria.
