Reno Omokri, Nigeria's Ambassador Designate to Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and Nicaragua, has cautioned against plans to reintroduce fuel subsidy and fully reopen Nigeria's land borders. He warned that such actions could lead to massive smuggling and worsen insecurity. Omokri's comments appear to be a reaction to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar's pledge to reopen borders and remove fuel subsidy if elected in 2027. Atiku argued that border restrictions have disrupted transborder trade with neighboring countries.
