Fuel Queues Disappears In Abuja After Jonathan’s Media Chat by MurphyT1: 5:12pm On Nov 25, 2012
The perennial fuel scarcity in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja and its environs has disappeared, less than 48 hours after last Sunday’s media chat by President Goodluck Jonathan, during which he dismissed the speculations that the Federal Government had concluded plans to remove fuel subsidy totally.

President Jonathan made it clear that there was no plan to remove fuel subsidy for now, and that fuel subsidy had already been captured in 2013 budget proposal to the National Assembly for appropriation.

Investigations by the Sunday Tribune revealed that following the declaration by the President, most of the filling stations within the Abuja metropolis and its environs in Niger State; Mararaba and Nyanyan in Nasarawa State, which had remained under lock and key under the pretence that fuel was not available, in anticipation of removal of subsidy, suddenly opened their stations for business.

It was also observed that most of the filling stations, which had earlier been dispensing the commodity with only one pump also commenced full operations with other pumps, thus making the unending queues and scarcity to disappear.

I still pity those gullible people that take anything that use*less cap wearing son of a fisherman from Otueke says. That God forsaken idi*ot is a born liar and a traitor.

Nigerians don't forget around November 20 2011 (can't forget), this same man said it was going to be till April 30th 2012 before the Fuel Subsidy would be removed. What happened on January 1st 2012?

Jonathan is a bloody hopeless lair. Take his words at your own perile.

He sure has another Evil plans to welcome Nigeria to a new year come January 1st 2013.

Jonathan is a devilish liar, traitor and deceit who deserves to be thrown into the lion's den after stripped nak*ed and beaten across the street of Abuja.

A man who SIGNED the Power Rotation document but went back to betray those who trusted him.

A man who promised paliatives for removing the fuel subsidy only to start showing us buses that were bought by late President Yaradua as part of the buses (he jonathan claimed) he bought before removing fuel subsidy

A man who promised fresh air to nigerians (the foo*ls who voted him in) only for him tom make their lives more miserable than it was in 2011

A man who promised to fight corruption and yet discovered to be the world's most corrupt leader presently on earth.


A man who denied His wife being hospitalized in gernmany.

A man working day and night to discredit Nuhu Ribadu's report of the Petroleum Tax Force committee.

You all are in for another Wicked surprise if you believe anything this man says

Insult is an understatement when it comes to Jonathan's wickedness. He deserves a solid punching in his big nose. His policies are just all wrong and filled with greed and wickedness.

You shameless pips are still repeating this LIE (sorry, Line) that 'GEJ feeds himself with #3million everyday', abi? Una no know say that lie don dey busted since? You guys just took the Budget Sum under the heading 'Meals, Refreshments and other Miscellaneous expenses' for the whole of the Villa and simply divided it by 365 and viola it becomes: 'GEJ spends #3million to feed himself everyday'! Of course for Propaganda purposes, no need to really read through the Budget details. This was how some of you also said in October that 'GEJ and his vice would be using #1.3billion to feed themselves' next year (2013), again without looking through the details.

Anyways, the details of that sub-head has been widely reported in Nigerian newspapers recently, and we now know that only #203million is actually to be used for Meals and Refreshments out of the #1.3billion sub-head. We also now know that unlike the LIE you guys were peddling about, this #203million would actually be used not just for the 1st and 2nd families but also the hundreds of workers in the Villa (including the Domestic staff), for hundreds of people that visit the Villa every other week, for Visiting Dignitaries including State Dinners, for Presidential Retreats and hosting (eg like the one organised for the successful ParaOlympians recently), for FEC meeting 52 times a week,for Council of State meeting etc. When last did you even have the opportunity to know the amount of money Aso Rock uses to feed 'itself' item-by-item (a sort of 'state secret' before now)?Like I said that LIE have been totally busted; you guys should find another one abeg.

It is also a pity that you goons would openly say that 'GEJ is the most wasteful President in the Nation's history'! How on earth that is even remotely correct completely escapes me? I mean on what parameter was this arrived at: Overhead costs, Recurrent Budget, Deficits [/b]or what really?
GEJ has reduced [b]Overhead votes from N526billion in 2010 when he came in to N266billion in 2012 to projected N230billion in 2013(next year)-and this is the main measure of cost of Governance.
He also reduced Recurrent Component of the budget from 77.43% in 2010 to 74.43% in 2011 to 71.47% in 2012 to around 68.7% in 2013(next year).
He has also reduced Budget deficit from 3.35% of GDP in 2010 to 2.96% in 2011 to 2.85% in 2012 to projected 2.17% in 2013(next year).

Of note is that each of these cost measures increased almost every year since 1999, and GEJ not only stopped that trend but actually started to reverse it. He is also on the verge of implementing what is arguably the most radical Rationalization of the many redundant/duplicated Agencies of Govt via the Oronsaye's report. A wasteful president that has increased the foreign reserve to levels higher than when he 1st met them (ie to a more than 2-yr high of $46billion - though it decreased previously under him). Again, how can he even remotely be the most wasteful President ever? Only in you guy's HATE-FILLED minds, perhaps?

The argument can very certainly be made that MUCH MORE still needs to be done to cut cost (both on the Federal sides and the states and LGs) but to say that the costs have increased or that they are not decreasing is a LIE only shameless PROPAGANDISTS like your guys, can fathom.
