Patiently waiting for at least a single live interview by Atiku or Tinubu.

Presidential material is taking shape already.

It's time kids are separated from men.

Agbado talk is actually the most childish ever!!

Subsidywise20:


You are right, (I'm not an Obi supporter but subsidy has to go).

But try supporting subsidy removal in Nigeria....

VoteTinubu2023:
What's the equivalent he will offer?

Removal of subsidy has to be done but the masses will surely revolt. It's a devil and the blue sea situation.

Vote [b]Tinubu 2023. Vote APC.

Officialgarri:

No matter how hurting it is for the nation's wealth, fuel subsidy is one of the few ways that the government is directly giving back to the people.

I still don't know how we were cajoled to protest against fuel subsidy in 2012 (perhaps except for the looting)

What do I mean? Take a look at the price of our deregulated diesel flying high at #810, 850 and above and see the harsh effect on food prices and cost of long journeys.

If Peter Obi has an alternative to fuel subsidy that the world doesn't know of, he should hint us. It would be disappointing to ride to victory using lies

kponkedenge:


You'd be surprised that if a competent administration enters, you'd find out that this figures they are claiming here isn't even as close to what we are actually spending on the subsidy itself.

I keep saying that EFCC isn't doing enough to curb the out-of-control corruption going on in this Buhari's administration.

If we are lucky enough to have another party aside APC win the 2023 elections, the level of corruption that will be uncovered in this administration will be jaw dropping.

ogatboy:


But you follow protest against subsidy in 2012 and now you say subsidy is necessary. Pick a side. How can we spend more on petrol than on education and health? If there was constant power won't our consumption of fuel reduce.

Let us be honest the subsidy is actually an inflated figure people use to siphon money. I am hoping Obi wins and show how government have been scamming the people.

And mark this, Buhari will be the most corrupt government in the history of Nigeria for a long time (the same corrupt guy claiming he will fight corruption). Abacha's loot will be child's play to what Buhari's administration has stolen

Lol

This guy sensationalizes everything.
(***I used to think likewise until I reflected on the advice given to him by 'Ordinary President,' the Owner of Berekete Radio Abuja.***)

He does not address issues to a logical end.
(***You may want to have a rethink after the forthcoming routine presidential debate***)

He just reels out stats to impress listeners without offering a reasonable solution.
(***Mention other names that knows the stats as much as he does***)

Subsidy is a delicate national issue. Until we have local production capcity, its removal will hurt this weak economy.
(***He has emphasized for the umpteenth time that his administration would shift paradigm from sharing and consumption, to production and export***)

Dangote refinery should come on board. FG should strike a contract refining deal with him. He can also be paid for refining with crude oil. That will tremendously reduce pressure on forex and freight costs. It will boost Naira value, as over 50% of our forex goes to oil importation.

That is the only way subsidy can be addressed.

Peter Obi is just a noisemaker
(***A noise maker who has authorised you to hold him accountable if things go amiss under his watch***)

Subsidywise20:


But it has to go first...so that someone would refine fuel at N200 and sell at N230 to marketers and then marketers can sell at N250-300 (FIGURES GIVEN ARE HYPOTHETICAL...although domestic refining of fuel should not cost less than N200 a liter) so that the profit would be there to build, maintain and upgrade refining potential in this country.

We are using the money we could have used for more refineries on subsidy, and have been doing so for decades. And apart from Dangote and a few others, no one wants to come and invest in refinery, refine fuel at N200 and more,per liter and sell it at N165 or less....and lose money.

Subsidywise20:


Erm, the 2012 protests were against the removal of subsidy, not against subsidy per se.

seborrhic:
Talk is cheap.
Even the western countries and the US,the most capitalist sets in the world and the chief advocates of subsidy removal,with the suffering their citizens are experiencing and the increasing protests are looking for ways to subsidise cost of fuel.
Some have even started subsiding it by directly giving cash incentives for their citizens to buy fuel.

shortIGBOman:
Even if Peter ObiTUARY promised to give us free fuel, food and everything. We still won't vote him.

Make una rest

ogatboy:


The same subsidy that was called scam?

President Buhari said more than this when he was campaigning in 2015 so where are we now. Let forget jare
