This is like a two-edged sword. It's either we continue to subsidize fuel and watch the nation crippled to its knee or we remove subsidy and increase the hardship on the citizens. Truth be told, Nigeria can't afford to keep subsidizing fuel at this point in time. The fuel subsidy arrangement reeks of corruption. Nigeria is broke, that is the truth. The government should have made provisions in the budget for palliatives to help cushion the effects of the subsidy removal. The blame is not on this current administration, but rather on the last administration that prepared and signed the budget for the year. There was no way this administration could have continued to subsidize fuel when there is no provision for it in the budget. Or would you all rather we borrow more money to keep subsidizing fuel? That makes no economic sense. It's either we keep subsidy and not have money to pay civil servants and carry out capital projects, or we remove subsidy and save enough money to put into other sector of the economy. I get it, there is going to be hardship in the near-term, but I think most will agree that we will definitely come to enjoy it in the long run. Also, I see people talking about raising the minimum wage. In all honesty, #30,000 is too meagre to meet the current reality on ground, but the numbers being proposed and flying around won't work either. Raising minimum wage above #100,000 is only going to increase the suffering for the citizens. Inflation is currently over 20%. What do you think will happen to inflation if minimum wage is raised astronomically? Economics students should understand better. The bottom line here is that we all need to accept reality as it is today. Subsidy is gone for good, and the government should as a matter of urgency provide palliatives for its citizen for the short term. Wages and salaries should be reviewed to meet with the current situation. 2 Likes |

NLC should put action in their talk, bite in their bark and venom in their strike They should realise that the present people in govt have no empathy, respect or consideration for Nigerians and their plight Their intent is to subdue, subsume, plunder, debase and decimate the lives of honest, hardworking Nigerians while they enjoy all the perks and paraphernalia without a sweat This is most unfair! NLC should declare a total, complete and indefinite strike NOW!! Shut down everywhere!!! 6 Likes |

Inflation at a high; hyperinflation projected 7. Electricity tariff hiked 8. Funding for tertiary education removed, University tuition increased to 300K+ 9. Naira devalued and continues to lose value on all fronts 10. Seaport Terminal Operators Jack Up Cargo Handling Charges By 45% 11. Naira Devaluation Pushes Up Vehicles Duties By 40% 12. Bread Producers Serve Notice Of Imminent Hike In Prices 13. Same old politicians lined up to continue the looting 14. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO HELP SUFFERING NIGERIANS Meanwhile 15. FG Votes ₦24 Billion For 10th NASS Members’ Accommodation 16. Elected Politicians, Judges Set To Get 114% Salary Raise 17.

fourboys: What plan do you guys keep talking about?, they should tackle corruption around the subsidy and let the subsidy be. That is the one of the very few things the masses enjoy in Nigeria. Even developed nations subsidize important sectors of their economy. Subsidy is not a burden if they subsidize the nation's true consumption. That money for palliative should be used for the true subsidy. 5 Likes |

It's foolhardy to deride the NLC and refer to them as toothless bulldogs knowing that they are being restricted by the courts from taking any action with regards this fuel price increase. The federal government is the weapon fashioned against poor Nigerians. 3 Likes 1 Share |
