Please stop grouping Boko Aram with these other groups. BH is a terrorist group. They bomb innocent people. They have nothing to bring to the table

Face, please explain how the increase in the domestic price of petrol will develop the oil industry.

I hope you keep in mind the argument for SAP and liberalization, that allowing the exchange rate and thus prices of imported goods to market forces will develop local industries.

Today the CBN still control exchange rate and local industries going under.

My brother forget the rhetorics, you cannot defeat Muslim militant organization by military means, ask the Americans, at the end of the day they would negotiate with the Taliban. You can also ask the Egyptians or Algerians who banned Muslim organization over 30 yrs ago, today they have been allowed into the political space.

Boko Haram has perceived grievances, that is why they are ready to die for Their courses, a round table discussion will even afford us the opportunity to know those grievances, and then see if we can negotiate or if they prefer to opt out of Nigeria.

Even when the niger delta militant were bombing, many innocent people were bombed and shot in port harcourt, bayelsa, delta and even Abuja and Lagos, and today they are enjoying amnesty.

There is a big problem of hypocrisy in the country.
Your choice of the words, rent seekers, would have been apt as a title. It is really puzzling that people are ready to overlook the leprousy in their immediate sorroundings to seek rent from Abuja. You would think that their governors and LG chairmen who are suppossed to provide grassroots development and employment were elected as decorations whose only job is to get free oil money from Abuja. How can Nigeria ever develop with such attitudes?

alja-rem and co, are you guys not tired of bei.g beggars? Can't you guys be creative for once instead of waiting for handouts? gosh!!!! you guys are pathetic. Reasonable people are putting the pressure of various tiers of govt on how to be accountable for every penny earned and you are here planning how to burn down the country because the man from bayelsa wants to show your likes how to fish instead of waiting for the crumbs from your bigoted paymasters.
Why is the so called protest not for full resource control? why is it not for an SNC that would lay a new foundation for the nation and determine the kind of govt that would spur competition amongst the various geo political zones? You all agree that the country is being ripped off and in dire need of infrastructural development but yet, you are not ready to sacrifice the crumbs being thrown at you. I've come to realize that the so called protests have some political undertones as most of you can't still bear the fact that GEJ, a minority is in power and wants to change the status quo through his transformation agenda.

My base is at Asaba, the people are not protesting because they are too lazy
Every body is complaining but the people that can lead the protest are the
people looking for contract or begging for employment. At Anwai campus
Professors pack there cars and walk even the very rich are complaining.

As i am writing this, a lot cannot afford to go back to their base, as at yesterday a
trip from Asaba to Lagos is 12k instead of 3-4k maximum. I want all to know
that the producers (DELTA and others are not fighting is not because we
supported GEJ action but it is like a keg of gun powder that can violently explode.

The suffering is too much

alja-rem, thanks for coming outta of the closet i know it has never been about the laudable fuel subsidy removal but about power. Now to debunk your lies, when did the north as a whole ever contributed any meaningful thing to the development of this lopsided country. You guys were never ready for independence (freedom) from the imperialist. Even with the competition amongst the regions then, how far did you people go? you guys are always scared of change. Thank God the MB are gradually waking up. you are not even ashamed since 1914, you have been contributing beggars, diseases and what have you up to this day. shame on you and your likes and, as for me and my region, we don't need fuel subsidy (crumbs), we need true federalism cos that we bring out the best in us and that's how you know a real 'man'.

warrior01:

ok, lets get talking; the so called 'food' you supplied to the south (as if the south doesn't grow their own food) were they not fully paid for and for good profit? why didn't you start clamouring for the govt to start subsidising every cow, onions, tomatoes etc as that would make more sense rather than subsidizing pms a finite product? Don't you think an average nigerian would prefer his food subsidised rather than petrol? my guy, wake up cos the game is up. there is nothing like free lunch no more

warrior01:

see mumu, you claim you are supplying food to the south but you can't afford to feed yourselves. what a wise a you are. You guys are so hardworking that an igbo man will leave his place with nothing but sheer determination, settle in your place and within a few yrs, buy up land (your heritage) and still employ your lots and their families as gatemen and you are here beating your chest that you are doing good.

When a national issue of THIRD TERM AGENDA of Former President OBJ, came i thought we all fought it together regardless of tribe and region except for a few due to parochial interest, why are now treating this Serious National Issue with tribal sentiment?
Lets be liberal and do the right thing together for the benefit of our future.
