How Tinubu begins his administration
During his inaugural speech on May 29, 2023, Tinubu announced the removal of the fuel subsidy, a development which immediately skyrocketed the cost of living across the country.
Since the announcement, Tinubu has floated the naira and has partially removed the subsidy on electricity moves that have led to outcries across the country, and organised labour has continued to yearn for an increase in the new minimum wage.
