Tosanwunmi Tarre complains about fuel price increase

In a chat with Legit.ng, a student and the president of the Union of Campus Journalists, University of Ibadan, Oyo state, Tosanwunmi Tarre, she said that the fuel increase has adversely affected transportation cost.

"It has not been easy for students especially with the short time given to students to go on vacation. It is not every student that reside in Ibadan or Oyo state. On campus, students used to pay between N100 and N150, depending on the destination. However, with the fuel increase, one has to pay as high as N400 to N800 when using tricycles. This caused a lot of students who could not afford the fares to trek. It is saddening."
