Removal of fuel subsidy and its impact on women and children

Since the announcement of the removal of fuel subsidy by the Nigerian government on 1st of January 2012, alot of comments have been published and aired by the media. Questions and issues on the impact of the removal have also been raised. But we also need to check the impact on these set of people: women, children, the physically challenged and elderly.
One thing that keep reflecting in arguements raised, is the impact on the livelihood of Nigerians which boils down to perpectual poverty............................. as Nigerians protest the removal of subsidy i want us to also reflect on the impact on women and children.
