In 2013: Fuel subsidy is fraud - APC Nothing like fuel subsidy - Buhari Now in 2015 and with the current fuel scarcity, it will be nice to hear what Buhari and APC's liar Muhammed have to say about fuel subsidy. The lesson here is that it pays to be truthful all the time 3 Likes |

Its very easy to criticize from outside without the details available. I remember a former minister promise fuel will sell at 40NGN per litre. Another former CBN governor claim 2trillion or so was mismanaged in a pull-him-down essay. Now, its over a month, bring the ideas to actualize your claims and they're no where to be found. Only an Oshiomole, who's from my state, who achieved terribly below expectation (the only reason people think he achieved much was coz his predecessor was a demon), he own one of the best houses in Asokoro and now he's running a personal vendetta against Okonjo. A committee chairman, judging on the pages of newspaper before gathering facts-what a shame! If she's guilty, crucitlfy her, But not before 1 Like |

Meanwhile one lame government claims to be paying subsidy o yet no government regulated price. Selling at any price after claiming subsidy is daylight robbery and everyone that can seems to rape Nigerians with ease. |

Re: Nigerians Buy Fuel For N120 Per Litre by Barcholder: 9:11am On Jul 05, 2015 |
Why is this still a story to Nigerians. Are people not better informed yet, or are we cursed to remain forever clueless about fuel prices, and the reality of where it's going? Let me do my best to spell out the current situation, and the very likely outcome. The current landed price of PMS in Nigeria is N119. The government insists that it must be sold at N87. Therefore, to persuade ANY marketer to do that, they must subsidise the cost of importation for them. Hence the fuel subsidy. However, the fuel subsidy is a massive fraud on the Nation, and fully 40% of all subsidy payments are fraudulent. This is a FACT, let's just say I know more on this subject than most. The subsidy is also destroying Nigeria in several major and critical ways: 1. It's bankrupted the treasury 2. It's acted as a heavy disincentive for private investors into oil refineries, because, for obvious reasons, fuel marketers will prefer to import and steal from the government than buy from local refineries at lower cost. 3. Demand for USD driven by the importation of PMS accounts for 80% of all USD demand in Nigeria. This is what's causing continual pressure on Naira, and hence, the slide to N230 to $1 on the parallel market. Cause of Current Fuel Scarcity The government has refused to pay any more subsidy to marketers, who have in turn refused / are unable to buy any more product overseas, because their banks refuse to lend them more money. As a result, the nation is running short of supplies and will run out of fuel completely in 3 weeks if new supplies are not made immediately. The fact is, the government will not (and should not) pay any more subsidies to them. They will instead (I seriously hope) focus on resurrecting refining capacity. So what happens in the meantime? Well, it's fairly obvious. The restrictions on selling price of N87 will be lifted, and marketers will be able to charge whatever they like, like any REAL business, not a Government aided and supported basket case. The current landed price per litre is N119, but is expected to rise sharply due to the continued fall of the Naira against Dollar. I therefore expect prices to increase sharply over the next 3 to 6 months, to somewhere in the region of N130 - N160 per litre on average. This it what the TRUE price of PMS should be, and when the government subsidy is removed, that's exactly where it WILL be. With luck, as oil refining capacity increases again (Dangote's 500,000 barrels a day plant is due to become operational by Q1 2017), we should see a gradual decrease in pump prices, to somewhere in the N110 - N120 per litre range. Long Term Solution Nigeria is hopelessly addicted to PMS, largely due to the power crisis. It's very noticeable to any Nairalanders who travel overseas frequently that you don't see anywhere near the number of Filling Stations that you see here. I have observed this extensively in USA, UK (where I was born and raised), and most recently, in China, where I was just 2 weeks ago. Bear in mind that these are far far more developed countries than Nigeria, with much larger economies, who's fuel demand should therefore be commensurately larger than Nigeria's. Evidence of this is as follows - 65% of all PMS demand in Nigeria is to fuel generators, not cars. Ask yourself the simple question - how many litres do you buy daily for your generator versus your car, and this fact should become obvious to you. The solution to this madness is to crash the domestic demand for PMS, by eliminating the need to use it to generate power in our homes and businesses. We do this by a wholesale switch to renewable energy sources such as Solar Power, to power our homes and businesses. The technology is readily available, and tried and tested, even here in Nigeria. There are approximately 5,000 homes and businesses right here in Nigeria that already have guaranteed 24 hours power supply through Solar Energy. The challenge is to rapidly scale that across the estimated 100 million homes and business structures that currently use generators every single day for power. Major plans are afoot to make this happen, and I will confidently predict that within 5 - 7 years, generator usage, particularly in homes and small businesses, will have largely been eradicated.

I will diskwos world oil frice with President Michelle of West Germany and my Commissioner, Osunbade will sell fuel to you at N40/litre. Subsidy is scam. No money in the treasury, but Nigerians will change $1 to N1. Once Military relocates command centre to Maidugri, boko haram will disappear. Because they are mere pdp thugs. 2 Likes |
