Can your country at least refine its products?
Do we need to import what we can easily produce?
Working refineries=no subsidy, and your leaders know that

Yes we can so long as the refineries make a profit doing so

Which subsidy was not allowing

Key word,selling at a loss

Very apt. So can you explain to us why the 3 refinery we have has not work for years despite the fact that monies have been budgeted and disbursed?.





Simple. They were not making enough money because subsidies forced them to operate at a loss.

But when GEJ wanted to remove it, ur Tinubu kicked against it!!
GEJ regime was the best time to remove the subsidy, tell me what APC government policies have achieved since they took over? at least una no dey buy fuel at lesser price than people from other regions, inflation is not hitting only one region, it's going all round, bad governance is like the rain, it pours on good and bad.

Considering it was under GEJ that my eyes were opened to how evil subsidy was, you are talking to the wrong person.

Complain to the actual APC support,not me.

The people that campaigned against subsidy removal were the same Thieves milking the country and saying subsidy is gone and removed. And they're cabal and untouchable because they're still in power.

Crãzy and highly corrupt country.

Exactly.
The people who opposed it years ago, are the one taking credit from trying to remove it now.
Lopsidedness.

Buhari under APC government removed subsidy on Kerosene, diesel and cooking Gas, what did they achieved with the money? Tell me whether it reflected on Nigeria's economy or Nigeria's reserve? Their policies inflicted more poverty on the citizens because they are corrupt to the core! They removed the subsidy and loot it, then they put Nigeria in debt by borrowing .
Tinubu under 1month has borrowed twice despite removing subsidy on Pms, devalue naira and increased prices of fuel.
Where exactly are they channeling the money saved from subsidy removal to?
Have you seen any positive changes in Nigeria's economy under administration?

Multiple religious and ethnic mix failed Nigeria. Europe that created Nigeria does not allow multiple ethnic and religious country in Europe because such countries fail at last. The 3 Swiss groups agreed first on a formula.

Since the late 1980s, Europeans have dissolved all the once multi ethnic and religious countries in Europe, like Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, etc.
Europeans have refused Turkey membership of the European Union because of religious differences.

But cheap cash from crude oil makes small minded Nigerian politicians stick to an impossible Nigeria they know can never work. The country has become the poverty capital of the earth.

Subsidy was started to put money in the hands of the big men of those days, subsidy is also being removed now to put more money in the hands of the rich and big men of Nigeria of today.

Such a sad situation for my nation and the masses who are so gullible.

Watch closely and you will see clearly the game called Nigeria.

Everybody gonna reap what they sow, it's how the universe operate, that principle cannot be broken, you elect a bad leader cos of sentiment, you will suffer along with your children and no one will come to your aid, that's you reaping more than you sowed.
The effect of the removal of fuel subsidy will actually start by july. See you then!

Subsidy or what ever has not gone away.
They said ,they have removed subsidy.
Because its crashing the economy.
Now they are bringing palliatives program to ease the effects which the removal of subsidy have caused.

Now what is the difference between subsidy and palliative?

Money is allocated to the both right?

No it was not. Subsidy was an ultimately misguided plan to keep fuel prices cheap for the poor. It did not work because it fouled up the profit making ability of the petroleum sector, and messed it up to the point that we lost domestic refining, and ended up with large deficits.

If there was no subsidy or if it had been removed since...we would have had domestic refining,
been exporting oil to every country in west africa for profit, and we would have had more and more jobs.

Your problem is you think that business people earn money to put in their pockets. They have tax to pay, staff to pay,etc.

A lot of the profits resulting from the removal of subsidy are going to salaries to pay...ordinary Nigerians like you and me.





If you were running a business, would you sell at a loss, so that you could help the poor?

You won't , so why expect that from the oil sector. ? We lost four refineries, and got years of corruption and mismanagement because of trying to sell cheap fuel to help the poor.

Anyway, whoever you voted, they would still have removed subsidy. If we kept the subsidy, its cost would have been 14 trillion this year. Our budget is 20 trillion. That 14 trillion would have come from our budget...leaving a hole that needs to be filled...by loans.

And as things stand, we cannot take any more loans right now. DMO is shouting that we are all loaned up, and the IMF is looking at us one kind.

I beg to differ. If subsidy continued lets say when Dangote started to produce from his refinery he could still make profit. All that would happen is that Dangote would charge his price, the price he would be profitable, for his fuel to NNPC. The NNPC would pay that price then sell the fuel at the subsidized rate(unprofitable price) price to Nigerians. The NNPC would then ask for the government to give them their losses or the subsidy payment.

But then again I could be wrong since those refineries were state-owned, different dynamics could be at play.

It won't. The problem with subsidy is the pump price is set below production price and subsidy can't sufficiently cover the difference

Thanks for politely disagreeing with me
