A simple google would have revealed to morro.n Bruce that india pays subsidy on kerosene.


Government caps kerosene subsidy at Rs 12/litre, LPG at Rs 18/kg

Kerosene through public distribution system (PDS) is sold at Rs 14.96 per litre against the actual cost of Rs 29.91. The difference between the two, Rs 14.95 per litre, is termed as under-recovery or revenue loss.
While the government will provide Rs 12 to meet most of this, the remaining Rs 2.95 will be borne by oil producers ONGC and Oil India Ltd, he said.

The Senator is just looking for cheap publicity to deceive Nigerian youths.

It's cheaper in India because India govt massively subsidises Kerosene. And the debate about removing the subsidy in India goes back several years - successive Indian governments just cant find the political will to remove the subsidy.

Have you thought that Ben Bruce might be asking for the reinstatement of subsidy? If India imports oil and subsidises production of kerosene then we as major oil exporters should subsidise the importation of kerosene.

And in his village this is how you ask for subsidy reinstatement ba?

an opposition senator that clamoured for the removal of subsidy but turn around to bash the Govt for doing same.

Opposition indeed, ben bruce only succeeded in fooling gullible Nigerians who believed he was fighting for their interests with his common sense shit.
In 2012 people like you sheepishly follow femi falana to eat indomie and dance in Ojota park, all in the name of protesting against fuel subsidy removal, but now when it was eventual remove, sectionalism, nepotism, tribalism, centime and cowardliness have made you to keep mute.

This man is an hypocrite and I pity you Wailers who can't reason well. When GEJ was there and it was being sold for 136 Naira per litre, he didn't open his mouth to talk about the price of petrol and diesel not to talk of kerosene . But now, he wants to be an overnight hero on Twitter. Make him go continue his ashawo beauty pagent wey we know am for if him no know wetin him go dey talk. #HypocriteSenatorMurrayBruce#

And to add to that, India could afford subsidy because it isn't a mono-economy like Nigeria whose revenue is based mostly on oil revenues which had since plummeted past "critical level" Nigeria cannot afford subsidy at this time, even if it wants to. This is really a wake up call for us to diversify the economy, maximise tax opportunities, not just reduce but eliminated wastage by both the government and the citizens. We should start by curbing electricity and power wastages, switch off your lights, appliances and electronic gadgets when not in use. Prepaid meters should be made available to all electricity subscribers for effective power consumption monitoring. We should turn off taps when not in use and also avoid water wastages. You will be amazed how much you save monthly when you employ simple management methods to curb gas, kerosene, diesel, petrol and other wastages. This is really a time to tighten our belts to move this nation forward.

@ benmurraybruce

India which imports oil from us, sells
kerosene at Rs 14.96 per liter (₦44). Why is
kerosene cheaper in a nation that imports oil from us



I guess we should be asking them in national assembly, and not the other way round......
