Gej has a good heart. Even though the protest was sponsored by apc, Gej still revised his decision because of the masses. But buhari doesn't give a shit about the masses, he's a very stubborn goat.

Passingshot is one brilliant man but he is wasting his talent defending everything APC. Could have been nice if he was non partisan.

**** Na aisha's boi boi. Since e chop rice, he must defend APC and their shit whether it makes sense or not.

Situation then was different from situation now. When Jonathan increased the fuel price, oil price then was about usd100/barrel. So no reason for him to do that.But now oil is about usd38/barrel. W cannot sustain the subsidy any longer.

Realman87:


I agree with you that Nigeria has not had one decent (real) leader since independence But I disagree with you that Jonathan was incompetent. The truth is that a 'section of the media' portrayed him as incompetent. Those who hated Jonathan used their media to repeatedly Damage his government, and more people are beginning to realize their folly e.g Pa Ikhide. Jonathan's achievements were suppressed by the media while boko haram's atrocities were 'glorified' by the hateful group that controls the media. In summary, the northerners created boko terrorists while western media 'glorified' their atrocities. Please, Jonathan wasn't incompetent.

Obviously you did not read or comprehend what i wrote. Nigeria has never had one descent leader since independence. You all have been cheated from the birth of the country. I have not said one leader is or was better than the other. They are all the same, outdoing each other on who can be worse. What is shocking to me is you not realizing this and praying for the return of Jonathan, one the worst of the worst in Nigeria's history. He was so incompetent it is still mind boggling to me.

Hahahaahahaheheheehehhihihhihihihohohohhohhoh......... You guys said U need Chain and U are chained now, why complaining. Same with my hausa brothers here in School, there is no blessed day they don't abuse JONA then, especially when we are going to school in school bus, train, or at train station. Now that Buhari government gave banks freelance to charge any rate on master card (debit card), they are the ones now complaining about chanji, I told them, is what you ask that GOD gives, you people ask for heartless leader and he gave you. The reason I said heartless is not far fetch, imagine a leader saying; anybody that can't afford should leave or forget about it, when the government are the one who send almost all the northerners schooling abroad on scholarship and are still study, some half way, some are just waiting for thesis defense while some final exams. For some of us, who are self sponsor, we are in a deep blue sea because most of us budgeted based on NGN160/USD1 exchange rate and banks now charge us NGN370 to NGN400/USD1, I am not exaggerating, ask any other person that operate with Firstbank, GT and do withdraw abroad. But because GOD is Merciful, man must survive, HE makes a way where itseems to be no way, we are going to finish, even if buhari likes or not. In Niger delta Avengers voice "buhari is not GOD to stop our destiny"

The APC supporters here have become Almajiri, they came with their wives and children because JONA government do pay them huge amount to study abroad, some married additional wife, but unfortunate, the hardship inflicted by PMB government makes them to start sending their wives & children back to Naija. Prior, when the arab country do give them allowance but no more because they discovered Nigerians do use the money to marry additional wife when they that give them the money only have one wife, they don't care about them again and stop giving then, they only thing they help them is free food in the mosque during ramadah. The people are like my igbo brothers now, they are after who pay them money (Tuition fee) whether you are buddhist, hindu, Christian or free thinker, they don't care about religion like the way my hausa brothers are using religion to tarnish the image of their fellow Nigerians here.

However, the problem is no matter how, APC supporters will not change because they believe, it is haram for any section to rule the country Nigeria, so I think division of Nigeria is better for the populace and masses.

ststyreal:

please people like me don't want to hear anything about APC which u represent. Seeing your handle alone irritate me. No body is interested in your long epistle cos it's only when its done by APC you people will preach sacrifice but when its Jonathan, your APC nonsense of a party will unleash fire. Go and enjoy your fuel subsidy removal and I hope u have visited the market of recent to see the increase in goods. Honestly, u irritate me with this your APC defense. I don't know you and trust me, will never have anything to do with u in this forum as regards to either quoting you or liking your comments as this will be my first and last time to ever have anything to do with your post. You disgust me with this your eye service defense of your so called party.

Fuel Subsidy cost Nigeria $35bn between 2011 and 2014. Imagine all that in our ECA and Reserves.....Amara Nwankpa

Lionsclaw:
I know lots of persons who were raking in 2012 about GEJs wickedness. I still see them today and they look so dumb in the face of current developments.
It amazes me to see that every of their action is based on what Tinubu says and does, they have no kind of their own. Talk of the real definition of zombie

omenka:
First off, I'm a party supporter and not a Rep. Be clear on that.

Now, make no mistakes, I appreciate the hardship the citizens are going through but also know too well some bitter pills must be swallowed and sacrifices made if we desire to attain the record heights we aspire to as a country.

We all know that policy is unsustainable and some of us, in our private fora, supported the idea of its total removal even under the ex-president- the only misgivings being that the regime was fatally corrupt and any saving made thereof could easily be stolen in the blink of an eye.

How SURE-P was handled vindicated our position. It became a facade behind which the most obscene acts of corruption/theft were perpetrated- that much was confirmed by the Chairman Kolade Christopher himself who eventually threw in the towel in disgust.

We must admit there would have been a more propitious time to administer the pill but for the government to have had the balls to pull this off at a time like this suggests it's already had its back up against a reinforced wall through which it couldn't break.

What we are witnessing today are a cascading effect of the record plunge in oil prices- world oil majors have been feeling the pinch as well- most notably Venezuela. Even Saudi with her trillion dollar economy has been slashing subsidies, how much more Nigeria...

I have no doubt the president has the best interest of the country at heart and fully understands the consequences of his action. I'm confident savings made from this would be channelled into areas with real and measurable impact on the average Nigerian- it isn't gonna be another SURE-P regime. When this is done, our country men and women would eventually see the propriety of the policy and would even forget shiit even happened.

Ask yourself this- would we rather keep buying gasoline at about twice the official rate while "subsidising" it or officially deregulate while the price remain unchanged??

This stuff would pan out beautifully, I believe so.

otitokoroleti:
when will NgeneUkwenu, Omenka, & Obailala apologize? Mr. meshinoye, when will you too apologize for that your wrong joke about the fuel price? Im sure that youve seen the reality now, its unfortunate that some people that have experience of living in advanced country still fall for cheap scam from APC & allow sentiments overrule their conscience.

My question still remains that "for the population of over 160million people full of intellects, best brains and professionals, buhari is the capable hand Nigerians see that will preside over them?
