FROM GOWON TO JONATHAN, BUHARI IS THE ONLY NIGERIAN LEADER THAT NEVER TOUCHED THE PRICE OF FUEL
YAR'ADUA was the only leader who did not increase, rather he reduced the pump price from #75 to #65(may his soul rest in peace)

Food for thought

Meaning what? Buhari should go to hell, we will never vote for terrorist. He is even too old, we need young and vibrant people, enough of all d old hags in government houses, we cannot keep doing same thing and expects different result. Lets do it differently dis time. God bless Nigeria.

Obj and Janathan spoil this country. Infact all our leaders are bad.

it ws d reduction of d pump price of fuel from #65 to #60 dat triggered d increase in subsidy payments. Yar'adua used dat reduction to gain some level of legitimacy,following wide condemnations dat trailed hs election.
D FIFA under 17 world cup in Nigeria in 2009 preventd yar'adua from total removal of subsidy cos he didnt want Nigerians to protest while we had foreigners in our midst. He travelled 2 saudi 2days b4 d policy could be effectd & never came back. (olusegun adeniyi - politics,power n death)

I don't think its a hard decision for a president to reduce Fuel price..infact it is the best way to gain cheap popularity..the question remains in the long run is it economically viable? Does it do the nation more good or harm? We can't eat our cake and have them at the same time...
Its just lyk saying since there is problem of electricity in the country we all should be assembled in eagle square and be given a generator each with say 10 litres of fuel.Of course we will have light in our homes but does it solve the problem ?
