In addition to addressing the PDP's internal challenges, George also called on President Bola Tinubu to reduce the price of petrol to ₦300 per litre during the festive season.

George noted that the government can absorb the losses and that funds can be allocated to offset the cost of this reduction.

George also criticized the rising cost of goods and services, attributing it to high fuel prices. He urged the government to prioritize the welfare of citizens, emphasizing that a reduction in petrol prices would positively impact lives during the festive period.
