Answer is simple....high oil prices above $90 from 2010-14, and allowing forex to flow freely.

The good times came to an end when oil started dropping in June 2014.....by January 2015, oil was at $75.

Also, fuel price under GEJ was at N65 till 2012 when it was N97 then 2015...when it was N87 officially. Unofficially, from 2013 onwards, actual fuel price in most parts of the country was above N110 per liter. And we lost a good deal of forex in the name of subsidy.

Naira was above N200 to the dollar before 2014...

GEJ ran a bad economy....that looked good. But was not. All the more reason why we have to get off oil

(And it does not make Bubu....wasting money on subsideis,not expediting action on diversificaiton, and not doing more for power any better....).

You are very uncaring.....and also you are telling the truth.

(Truth is bitter anyway...)

Fact is, since 2013...when GEJ and then labor minister Emeka Wogu told ASUU that the N3 trillion naira promised in 2009 was not possible...anyone with a pair of eyes could see that fee increases were inevitable...very inevitable.

If Govt could not afford to add N3 trillion in annual funding for universites....in 2013 when PDP faithful tell us we were eating milk and honey every hour....can this government, with oil prices that have been lower than what it was in 2013 do the same?

Nigerians have to face the hard fact. Fees HAVE to go up. We don't have a choice. Unless...oil goes to $140 per barrel.

Some countries have free tuition and their schools are far better. Nigeria does nothing for the citizens.
No light
No school
No medical facilities
The ones available are outdated.
No nothing, absolute nothing.

Do you have any counterpoint to my facts?

Note that I am not excusing the current government. I am pointing out that we use high oil prices to hide a bad economy.

When you don't diversify your economy....thihgs look good when oil is high, and bad when oil falls.

That is the point of my missive. If you don't get it because ofpolitics...and FYI I don't support APC, or PDP.....sorry.

And they pay HIGH taxes.

Denmark is a good example. They have free education from cradle to grave.....at the cost of half your monthly salary in taxes.

Same for Germany.

Do you want government to take half your salary in taxes...so that you can have free education..?

I've modified my post. These countries have better standard of living. We all know what we happen to us here if we give more of our taxes, a country filled with corrupt officers. You want the poor to enrich the rich? Well I think we deserve terrible leaders because we are where we are as a result of the summation of all the vices of each citizen.
Let the government try to prosecute a corrupt officer, same citizens will fight to death to defend them for sake of tribal and political differences.

The 2009 ASUU/FG agreement includied state universites....and just to make sure...ASUU even fought for their inclusion.

Anyway...the honest truth is, you cannot get good educaiton at low fees. Either we pay high fees...or government takes a loan and another loan...or we remove fuel subsidy so that we can pay for 'free educaiton'

And by the way, I was stating facts in answering the original poster.....in ,my opinion.....we need to industrialize so that we can have the cash to spend on anything.

Lautech used to be best state Uni and always in top ten best Uni in Nigeria until the populace wrongly voted for Aregbe and Ajimobi especially to continue their second tenure. Though Osun state people tried to erase the error but I wish Oyo State indegene can do better in the coming election

It is pathetic. We aren't asking for free education like they enjoyed but at least,it should be affordable
You simply wanna say APC government destroyed LAUTECH. students should be paying #20,000 since a course of four years takes eight years to complete because of endless strikes and all moneys collected returned for with interest for wasting the students time at the end of the students courses.

So we keep the fees low...keep on producing half baked graduates that cannot compete with the graduates from private universites....and from foreign universities.....and at the end of the day....guess who suffers...the poor in the name of free educaiton.

Inasmuch as I personally would charge N20000 as school fees in universites if I were in charge of this country...the truth is, we have no choice.Either we spend half our budget on just universites...and it may not be enough....or we borrow and borrow...or riase taxes.


As for corruption....I have heard Nigerians shout about corruption. But bring facts about corruption in GEJ or Bubu';s admin...and people will insult you. (That's why I have all but given up on politics in Nigeria....).

How stupid you look!
Check the OPEC price of a barrel from the 80s to 2018.

Buhari makes more money than Jonathan in case you don't know.
If a barrel of petroleum was averagely sold in GEJ time for $75 ( from 2009-2014) and dollar was #160 ( randomly selected), multiple the two gives #12,000 while Buhari's period (from 2015-2018) gives an average price of $53 for a barrel and a dollar is #360, multiple the two gives #19,080. Subtract the two will equal to #7,080. Where a litre was sold for #87 in GEJ's time, we are buying it for #145. Subtract the two give #58. Who makes more money?

Thanks for calling me names. That's nice.

Subtract the two equals to #70,080. Where a litre was sold for #87 in GEJ's time, we are buying it for #145. Subtract the two give #58. Who makes more money?

Well

1.Oil under GEJ was between $94-130 from 2010-14....not $75.
2.Oil started falling when GEJ was in power...from June 2014...to $75 by May 2015 when Bubu took over. It then fell to an all timelow of $30 by Feb 2016...and then slowly went up to $81 now.
3.Reason why fuel was lower under GEJ....value of the naira, plus the fact that we had enough forex to buffer the naira then due to the high oil prices.
4.Landing price of oil was N92 by 2012....and it went up to N132 by 2015...which is why Bubu increased fuel prices. It is now N180 per liter.(We import most of the fuel we use in this country...and that would be the fact if we kept all our refineries in peak working conditions).
5.Anyway, my point is....an economy that relies on the oil price is a bad economy. What we need to do is get off oil.....which is the point of my rebuttal to you. I am not here to praise or disparge GEJ orBubu. The fact is, we are running a monoeconomy, and it is a vulnerable economy.

I am not into PDP or APC.....sorry.
