COOLDUN:

Then we can be compared to Canada right? By the way if there was no Oil in Nigeria, what would have been used as an excuse for the dying economy? If you like, you can continue to defend your government, who cares but the fact remains that the already deregulated products like Diesel is still a mirage. Millions of your type can occupy this nairaland forum for your duties but logically you won't succeed to fool everyone with these theorical economic policies. If Nigeria was not populated you would have used it as an excuse of not having a functioning economy.

Now Nigeria is over populated and that is why the masses should be wiped out with economical hardship. 1982 it was Austerity measure, I989 it was SAP, 1999 till 2010 it was Privatization, now it is Deregulation, still nothing is working. Europeans are rejecting what we accepted whole heartedly that has been sucking Nigerians to death,since 1982.Bad workman always quarrels with his tools. if your salary can't sustain you, then over time will never sustain you too.

Many countries that have no single drop of oil are fast developing and growing economically, while Nigeria government is always giving unnecessary excuses. With the level of CORRUPTION in this country, mostly in this present regime, no amount of fund can do anything if it is not adequately addressed. Next we will be hearing CABALS, TERRORIST, ELITES, BUNKERERS, NLC, ASUU, and OPPOSITION PARTIES that are responsible for the economical stagnancy in Nigeria.
Just read tru this comment and honestly dont get what model its actually espousing. I see lots of complains bout what have happend or is still happening, but no alternative plan suggestd. It seems you are generally adversd to Deregulatn and Privatisatn? If so, i respect that but they questn is what is d suggestd model going further? What is the working models in those countries you mentiond? Are they working well, and is there any moves by these countries to change their current models? How is the state of d oda aspects of dier Downstream sector apart from Refineries and PMS? I personally am cautious bout full Deregulatn and Privatisatn except if it is necessary (like in d Power sector which i fully support), so wud want to know of a workable model that wud bring efficiency and competition to the Downstream sector of d oil industry?

Pls can somebody tell me how subsidy removal will eventually lead to private refineries. Current importers are paid #141 by d government and private refineries would still earn #141. Besides the immediate past shell md made it clear that they would not build any refinery even with subsidy removal. What have been done with the money saved so far from partial subsidy removal? What palliatives have been put in place? What action plan will be followed after d removal? It just reminds me of the huge increases in electric tariffs without anything to show as its gains. Nigeria power sector seems it would continue like this for long, then government would tell us that we need higher prices and d circle of deceit continues.

The ill- Yar'adua tenure is much appreciated than the current administration, then the fuel has a standard price where ever you go you must have pay #65 per litre and there is nothing goes beyond the government capabilty to carry out projects and yet salary has been paid to the workers and the standard living of average Nigerian has no different compare with this current govt that long ago subsidy has removed yet there is no change. I hope people will raise from death Yar'adua should have returned and continue his duty from where he stop.

What are you talking about? Even today NNPC does not 'oversee who is able t import or not' as you put it, PPPRA does; and that body would scrapped if Full Deregulation sets in
pppra is part of nnpc and even if its scrapped, they will always find a way to make a mess of the whole exercise.

Re: Jonathan Insists On Subsidy Removal by onyxo76(m): 7:57am On Nov 16, 2012
What I dislike about all the subsidy thing is all the lies we have been fed for months. The gov still uses the same old trick in the book, 1. Create scarcity and keep mute 2.people begin to panic buy at whatever price available. 3.govt tries offering some fake explantions as if they are concerned about the situation. 4. Govt increases the price to the price you buy presently and you accept since you are already used to the new unofficial price as you have no other fuel alternative to drive your car or power your generator. Rubbish.

Silly post. Don't come here spewing this idiotic rubbish again. Are you an f-ing retard? If your boss gives you a task and you're not fastidious with it, what should he do? Mugu.

And all you ba.stards talking trash *oh God! these are the most egregiously dumb and gullible people ever!* Fuel went from N65 to N97, can your slow brains at-least calculate the difference and multiply that by Local consumption? Subtract the result from the value of the past year and tell us where the goddamn money is angryangryangry

The fo.ols that supported him in January can now commit suicide. The palliatives have really been working :> we opposed him because we didn't want your village man there. Even if he is the dumbest PhD holder in the world, it's okay, your village man has to be in power!
