Rufai Oseni, an anchor on Arise Television, has criticized the government's recent move. He believes a temporary petrol discount is essentially a subsidy. This decision has raised questions about the government's stance on subsidies.

The discount is available for a limited time at certain filling stations. Oseni's comments were made during a television programme, where he also praised a former Vice President for highlighting the issue of rising petrol prices.

Further details about Oseni's remarks and the government's decision are available from the source. The broadcaster's comments come as preparations for upcoming elections are underway.
