This must be the worst New Year that Nigerians have celebrated since the civil war ended in 1970. The ill-advised removal of oil subsidy and the attendant increase in petrol price from N65 per liter to N130 per liter clearly indicate that Nigerian leaders are severely out of touch and roundly obtuse…
