So OP, the yardstick used in measuring Buhari as a competent leader is because HE DID NOT INCREASE FUEL PRICE? [size=18pt]The weed you are smoking must have been harvested from a shrine in ijebu[/size] 2 Likes |

IBROMARKET: When the price of oil goes down worldwide it means less revenue for the Nigerian govt. Since Nigeria is subsidizing gas price what that means is rather than use same amount of money it uses to subsidies fuel when gas price was high it uses less money so price remains the same hence u don't see any change at the pump. Also if u r making less revenue it will be stupid for u to keep spending same money when ur revenue was high. Gas price will have to go down significantly and stay low long term before u see a raffle to on of that at the pump 2 Likes 2 Shares |

abolyem: Ah yes, in the good old days petrol cost 9K. (A loaf of bread cost about that amount.). Consider also that the purchasing power of the naira has fallen too. In 1978....fuel cost 15.3k. Two loaves of bread cost N1. Now, fuel costs N97, while two loaves of bread cost N300 and over(depending on the maker). The reality is that inflation, driven by our dependence on oil and our resulting Dutch diseased economy leads to a fall in the value of the naira....and thus a rise in fuel prices. Now, world oil prices are hovering around $60. Saudi and the US are busy playing a game of chicken....to see who will force the other to go broke. Many new oil fields are comming on stream, even in Africa. All these means oil prices go down.. And with low oil prices....we have less money in the treasury....due to the amounts being spent to shore up the naira.(I feel like having some dollars right now....). Look at the above list. Between 1980-93...fuel price went up from 15K to N5. That represents a depreciation in the value of the naira as much as it represents an increase in fuel price. And all because of our dependence on imports....which means less forex to boost the naira....and less money in the treasury. If you want enough cash for subsidies galore, as well as other welfare things and a strong Naira....you need the large GDP which can only be produced by INDUSTRIES. Time to end our oil sucker behaviour. Time to end the Dutch diseased economy of Nigeria. Oil is a curse. 2 Likes 1 Share |

abolyem:You are funny.... have you heard of devaluation of currency? A book worth 5naira as at 1980 is worth well over 5000naira now. Before you make ridiculous post, try and be adviced. Naira was not always as worthless as it is now. Except you are counting figures alone of which then you need to go back and attend economics classes. Speak wisely "boy". Lol.

Re: History Of Fuel Price Increases In Nigeria. by king1234: 11:22am On Dec 16, 2014 |
abolyem: Yes exchange rate plays a role. However supply and demand should determine the price paid at the pump. When oil is in high demand worldwide prices go up but that is not reflected in the pump in Nigeria cos govt has artificially set a price it wants citizens to pay and to achieve that price it subsidies what people pay. So for each 100 naira u pay at the pump the govt contributes so gar price stays at a certain price. To me removing subsidy should be the long term goal using that subsidy to fund other means of efficient means of transportation should be the goal. 1 Like 1 Share |

jasper7:Guy I think its you who is getting it wrong, Naira had more value back the days so any increment would have devastating effect,U should measure increment in % rather than the money value.So that guy was right,all that being said an Increment of %300 is worse than an increment of %100 at any time now or in the future. |

Y bushdoc9919: Nice post. We should remove subsidy and most important divisify the economy. 70-75% dependence on one source of income is terrible for any economy that is able to plan talk less of Nigeria that can't plan |

Suffering has being a part of us since ages past! Even though u practically did nothing in our region to deserve our support, we still endorse u!!!! |
Re: History Of Fuel Price Increases In Nigeria. by abolyem(m): 11:32am On Dec 16, 2014 |
jasper7: With even the point you made above, can you compare them based on the indices u stated and tell who is better btw GMB and GEJ. Did the Naira fall againt Dollar during GMB regime? tell us at what rate GEJ met Dollar and what is it now. then you will know the reason why price is increasing in his tenure. And don't forget, they have rumored, pump price will still increase in June if they are still there. That shows u present Govt doesn't have any solution to stabilize Naira and have good effect on our pump price. Compare GMB government with that of GEJ head to head in Performance, i believe you will change ur mind if u are sincere with Nigeria. |
