well done reps but many of you are clowns and speak from both sides of the mouth. Like the executive and judicial arm of government, we still have a long way to go as a nation in being civil.

I now know that my President is a man with a broad courageous heart for refusing to partake and eat silently the juicy subsidy money, instead he is ready to sacrifice his legitimate pay for the future of Nigeria. Let the national Assembly and big time businesses, making outrageous profits cut their shilock taste now. Cost of goods and services in Nigeria are all artificial. In Nigeria we have the quick rich syndrome. Drivers want to make #5,000.00k in one hour travel distance. In a day they make one month salary of the civil servant. Let us come back to reality. We need money badly for the creation of jobs. We are tired of reading about billions in news papers. Let this money circulate now, according to the gospel of Goodluck Jonathan. Why should few people hijack the wealth and future of a nation. My Presido , circulate this hidden manna. For us to keep faith with you make sure public water ways and land ways transport are subsidised within two weeks in every local government of the nation. You are our revolutionary leader. Goodluck to Nigeria today and tomorrow.

it is GEJ plus his cabal that has hijacked the wealth of this nation. Irresponsible and corrupt government.

Has no one member of the House of Reps thought to move a motion to CUT total pay loot by 50 - 75 %, prosecute some so called cabal and eliminate corruption? Which reversal? The future of children unborn is being mortgaged here.

The South East and South South are correct not to interfere. They bear the brunt of the oil leaks, the militancy and the kidnapping industry that it spawned. Anyway petrol had always sold for more than N65 a litre.

The NLC, the NBA and the House of Representatives are NOT ANGELS at all.

When Sanusi Lamido revealed that 25% of the National Budget was spent on the National Assembly no one supported him. Not the clergy, the NBA or the NLC. Shortly thereafter the former Speaker of the House of Reps was arrested for borrowing from the banks and spending 40 BILLION NAIRA in additon to what was budgeted for. Sanusi fought a lone fight. He was disparaged by the House of Reps. The NBA, the NLC, Pastor Bakare and Mallam Rufai did not come to fight corruption.

The fuel subsidy has to be removed because it is the sure way to stop the Corruption in that business. The fight against Corruption must BE INSITUTIONAL AND PROCESS BASED. The EFCC and the Judiaciary have not been effective becasue that approach is based on the PERSONALITY of the EFCC Chairman of a particular judge.

Please read Sanusi Lamido's details of how the Fuel Subsidy FRAUD is perpetrated by excutives of the petrol industry, Nigerian Customs, oil industry regulators etc. This will give an idea of the vast scope and depth of the FRAUD.

Also please remember that NLC is not necessarily fighting for the masses. It has never called a stricke over food or agriculture (becauuse the unons from that sector is not a major contibutor to NLC's finances) nor over Corruption. Never. The NLC strikes only for Oil sectore, PHCN and the Old Nitel.
President Obasanjo sold the refineries to the private sector. The same NLC resisted and got President YarAdua to make a political decision to reverse the sale. Recently GEJ approved that the salaries of PHCN workers should be tripled to secure their support for the power sector reforms but requested that each PHCN staff should be verified by biometric. The NLC and PHCN union accepted the pay increase but went on strike over the biometric testing. But the government knows that without biomentric testing the slary increase will become another bottomless opportunity to STEAL money. For you dear reader, PHCN/NLC have refused to continue with the Pay-As-Use electronic meter because it closes a major opportunity for PHCN to steal your money through their spurious bills.

The FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION IS NOT EASY AND IS NOT PAIN LESS.
