In a video shared on Instagram, the actor questioned why fuel keeps getting more expensive in Nigeria compared to other countries.
Okunnu also raised concerns about who should really take the blame for the sudden increases.
He wondered if the government was responsible for the increase or if marketers were behind it.
Wale Okunnu criticised the situation, saying the actions of marketers were troubling.
While acknowledging global tensions like the conflict between Israel and Iran, he questioned why Nigeria, despite having its own crude oil, still struggles with high fuel prices.
According to him, countries with similar resources do not face the same level of price hikes, adding that Nigerians may be contributing to their own problems.
He said, “As at Saturday, petrol was N1240 per litre but as at Sunday, March 22, it has risen to N1340 per litre.
” Please, is it the government that increased the pump price within hours or we the people? What the marketers are doing with the regards to petrol pump price is not small.
“We know there is war in Isreal and Iran but don’t we have our own crude oil? Why is it that our own petrol is so expense?
“Other countries that have petrol, why is theirs not as expensive as ours? We are the ones punishing ourselves”
KanyiDaily recalls that Dangote Petroleum Refinery increased the price of petrol from ₦1,175 to ₦1,245 per litre.
