Reacting to the announcement, Melaye described the increase in petrol price during a pandemic as ”grossly insensitive and wicked by the government”
According to him, the development shows how the present administration is taking advantage of poor Nigerians.

“Men of good conscience will not watch the lives of poor Nigerians taking for granted with outrageous ignominy by a stationary Government.”
