“President Tinubu Travels to France Amidst Nigeria’s Petrol Scarcity and Food Inflation Crisis”
President Bola Tinubu has departed for France amidst Nigeria’s ongoing petrol scarcity and surging food inflation, leaving many Nigerians concerned about the timing of his trip. As the country faces long fuel queues and record-high prices for essential goods, the economic strain on citizens continues to grow. The petrol shortage has caused transportation costs to skyrocket, further driving up the price of goods and worsening inflation.
The President’s trip to France is reportedly aimed at strengthening bilateral ties and attracting foreign investment, which could provide some long-term economic relief for Nigeria. Meetings with French officials and business leaders are expected to focus on ways to boost economic cooperation between the two nations.
However, the decision to leave Nigeria during a period of economic crisis has sparked criticism. Many citizens and political analysts feel that Tinubu’s presence is urgently needed at home to address these pressing issues. While supporters argue that foreign investment could help resolve underlying economic problems, the immediate concerns of fuel scarcity and inflation remain at the forefront of the public’s attention. Nigerians are hoping for swift government action to stabilize the economy in the midst of these growing challenges.

In a move to strengthen regional stability and provide humanitarian support, Guyana’s National Assembly has approved $123 million (approximately $587,940 USD) for CARICOM nations, Diaspora Watch can report. This decision was made during the 89th Sitting of the National Assembly, where Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Hugh Todd, emphasized the government’s commitment to supporting its neighbors in need.
Diaspora Watch was told the funds will primarily support Haiti, which has been plagued by severe gang violence, resulting in over 2,500 people killed or wounded between January and March this year. Recall that the violence has led to a shortage of food, water, and other essential items, further exacerbating the humanitarian crisis. Minister Todd highlighted Guyana’s history of providing support to its Caribbean neighbors, citing the recent example of Hurricane Beryl, which devastated several Small Islands Developing States (SIDS) in the region.
Guyana provided contributions in kind to affected OECS countries, demonstrating its commitment to regional solidarity. The approval of these funds comes on the heels of a recent meeting between Heads of Government of Caribbean nations in Guyana, where they discussed the pressing issues of crime and gang violence in the region. The meeting highlighted the need for collective action to address these challenges, which have resulted in a 154% increase in regional security budgets between 2019 and 2024. In July, Guyana provided its first shipment of relief aid to Grenada, comprising vital items such as generators, water purification tablets, and hygiene products. This donation demonstrates Guyana’s commitment to providing tangible support to its neighbors in need.
