Opinion: Buhari Should Cancel Fuel Subsidy by kenny091(m): 6:57pm On May 24, 2015
The mess in the petroleum sector in Nigeria today is of grand proportions, I wish I could say it has been an unprecedented two weeks of passion for all and sundry, but that would amount to self deceit. Nigerians have had to go through untold pains at the whims and whimsicles of our petroleum suppliers. Any slight change or appearance of instability in the petrol market and this marketers sit on their product and jack the prices up. Armtwisting helpless Nigerians and holding the whole system to ransom. I believe what affords them the ability to do this is the unity granted to them by fuel subsidy, which aims to ensure they sell fuel at a controlled price. Take for instance a petrol station selling fuel for 170 naira in the middle of the night today only to get a call from his fellow marketers and he stopped. They reopened today to join the others in selling for a whooping 300 naira per litre. As it is now the fuel marketers have done their worst, they have shown how much love they have for Nigerians. Now would be the right time to pull the plug on them and remove the subsidy. Let market forces pull down the prices with time. In the meantime one of the key goals for this incoming Government is to build at least two functional refineries in the country so that this embarrasing situation of the son of a baker crying for bread does not repeat itself. If we produce the oil we should have to suffer like this to get the oil. Fellow Nigerians over to you......

Good opinion. Over to you Buhari.


As for me, I don't think there's any need to do that. The Messiah has promised to reduce fuel price to 1 naira per litre. So whether we reduce fuel price or not, it will still be very cheap!!

Dude this message is not for the fuel marketers, they do not really care about us. Its for the incoming government. Don't you think its a cruel paradox that a country that produces fuel is also suffering becomes some marketers have refused to import this same oil

The idea of susidy is good... Some marketers just look for ways to out smart pef... If Buhari remove susidy without our refineries and depots working the way it's suppose to, Nigerians will suffer ... And please fuel can never be N1 per liter..is he OPEC? For fuel to be N1 per liter our money has to be as strong as dollar which is so impossible and we must stop importation of refined products which we can't coz our refineries ain't working properly... Oil and gas sector needs total transformation Abeg
