The All Progressives Congress
Presidential Campaign Council
(APCPCC) has called on the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
led Federal Government to stop
stealing from Nigerians and
allow them to enjoy the relief
that has come to consumers of
petroleum products globally.

A statement from the
Directorate of Media and
Publicity of the party’s
presidential campaign said it was
disturbing that in spite of the
fall in the global price of crude
oil, Nigerians still buy petroleum
products at pump prices as if the
global price of crude oil had
remained at $100 (USD) per
barrel.
“The price of diesel which has
been deregulated since 2009 still
sells at the pump price of N150
and N170 per litre, the same
pump price when the
international benchmark per
barrel of crude was over $100,”
it said, calculating that
Nigerians are being short-
changed by about N50 to N70 on
every litre of diesel sold by
government. “Now that the
international benchmark has
dropped to $47.5 (USD) per
barrel as at Monday, we ask:
where is the deregulation and
the relief which it ought to bring
to local consumers of diesel?”
The Presidential Campaign
Council drew attention to such
African countries as South
Africa, Zambia, Tanzania and
Kenya where governments have
cut the pump prices of petroleum
products to reflect the changes
in the global oil market, and
questioned why Nigeria has not
done the same. It described
anything short of that as a fraud
that Nigerians should take note
of.
"As for PMS (petrol) the only
product the government agrees
as regulated at N97 per litre, the
irony is that it does not even
cost much as in the United
States, a country that was
importing oil from Nigeria until
recently,” the statement said.
The APC campaign further
pointed out that even the
current federal budget is still
heavy on subsidy, with an
allocation of N458.68 billion, a
scheme that, it stressed, has
become a conduit pipe over the
years for which the children of
ruling party leaders have been
feeding.
70 on every litre of diesel sold by
government.
“The implication of this is that
with average consumption of
about 12 to 15 million litres,
Nigerians are currently extorted
of amounts between N600 Million
to N1 Billion daily due to
corruption-induced poor
regulatory oversight of the
Ministry of Petroleum
Resources. No wonder some few
industry players are smiling to
the banks and buying private
jets while small scale
industrialists who buy diesel on
daily basis for power generation
and transportation find it
difficult to break-even with
their businesses.
“Similarly on Kerosene,
information available on the
website of the PPPRA puts the
Open Market Price at N114.71 per
litre although the market price is
anything above N150 per litre
when the global price for a barrel
of crude oil was $65 (USD). Now
that international price of crude
is at $47.5 (USD) per barrel, why
are Nigerians still buying
kerosene per litre at the same
price? Why are Nigerians not
benefitting from the global
shortfall in the prices of crude by
having a cut in the pump prices
of petroleum products?
“We are aware that there are
examples in other African
countries where governments
have cut the pump prices of
petroleum products to reflect
the changes in the global oil
market. Countries like South
Africa, Zambia, Tanzania and
Kenya have announced cuts in
pump prices of petroleum
products, why can’t the Nigerian
government do same?
“Given the failure of
government to do the right thing
by announcing a cut in the pump
prices of these products, we are
compelled to draw the conclusion
that the federal government is
short-changing Nigerians
ostensibly to fund the campaign
of the PDP presidential
candidate.
“The APC Presidential Campaign
challenges the federal
government to make
explanations on why Nigerians
cannot benefit pricing reliefs on
petroleum products as
occasioned by the fall in the
global price of crude oil.
Anything should of this is a fraud
and Nigerians should take note.
"As for PMS (petrol) the only
product the government agrees
as regulated at N97 per litre, the
irony is that it does not even
cost much as in the United
States, a country that was
importing oil from Nigeria until
recently.
"Moreover, even the current
budget is still heavy on subsidy
with an allocation of N458.68
billion, a scheme that has become
a conduit pipe over the years for
which the children of ruling
party leaders have been
