So the bulk should shift to the already suffering masses. Buhari is the Head and makes the decision so he is to be blamed

A whole buhari, a no nonsense strong man will be forced by his junior minister and state governors against his will to do something? Since apc won the election, it has unlearned how to do propaganda.

Nation of Elected THIEVES. The word they love most is "SHARE" shocked shocked



The Minister of State for Petroleum, Ibe Kachikwu and state governors prevailed on President Muhammadu Buhari to hike fuel price from N86.50 to N145 per litre, a top government official told journalists in Abuja last night.

The official, who pleaded anonymity, said Buhari, who was concerned about the effect of fuel price hike on the average Nigerian, had strongly resisted the proposal by Kachikwu for several months but “succumbed reluctantly this month when he (Buhari) was presented with the stark reality of the dropping oil earnings and foreign reserves situation.”


The official said apart from this, “pressure from state governors whose allocation from FAAC has been dropping was also a significant factor that swayed the president.”
He said Buhari would not have agreed to the new fuel pricing regime if he had not been presented with the compelling evidence that Nigeria’s declining foreign earnings from oil would be further devastated unless independent oil marketers and other interested entities are encouraged to import fuel.
He said: “The amount required for fuel importation alone will easily take about more than half of the $550m foreign earnings. If the country continues doing that the oil revenue left for FAAC sharing would be significantly reduced with the possibility that a situation where there would be nothing left to [size=14pt]share[/size] between federal government, states and local governments exists in the near future.
“Although NNPC is meant to supply only 50 per cent of the local fuel supply and independent marketers making up the balance, none of the marketers has been able to source forex from the CBN this year and therefore cannot sell at the prevailing price regime and make a profit. If the federal government continues with NNPC alone importing oil, and trying to fill the gap left by the independent marketers by dedicating more export crude for domestic consumption, the depleting impact on the oil earnings would continue to worsen. And when this is added to the fact that already about 27 states cannot pay salaries because of the dwindling foreign earnings, the situation becomes even worse. Even some oil producing states like Bayelsa are affected,” he said.
He added: “With the drastic reduction in the foreign earnings in April, what would be [size=14pt]shared[/size] at the next FAAC is expected to be the least ever, when the meagre $550m oil earnings are converted to Naira. The sharp reduction in government revenue particularly from oil earnings due to low price regime in the international market has been exacerbated by domestic factors such as recent sabotage by disgruntled and faceless militants in the Niger Delta”.

It's a propaganda so as not to blame buhari. D last time I checked, buhari was elected president n not kachikwu or any of d govs.
Kineticist:
Some people are in the habit of spewing far fetched news. What has fuel hike got to do with State Govs..
Re: Kachikwu, State Governors Forced Buhari To Hike Fuel Price - FG Official by babestella: 8:48pm On May 15, 2016
This is a failed damage control all in the bid to exonerate PMB from this callousness.

Let's know who said this and list of the governors who did this.

Re: Kachikwu, State Governors Forced Buhari To Hike Fuel Price - FG Official by Reference(m): 8:49pm On May 15, 2016
Lìke I said a number of days ago. Buhari and his supporters will do anything to insulate themselves from political responsibility. In order to remain a cult figure and appear squeaky clean the bitter roots of governance must always be uprooted and others made to take the brew. Deflections, excuses and buck passing has now become the norm. The governors are the latest to fall for what is a Federal decision and responsibility while the President as usual was absent. Hmmm,......I just wonder.....

Irrespective of whatever went behind our backs, it was the right decision. And for the president to have succumbed, it means he was convinced. I trust him that much because I know he's not an IB.

The next thing is to provide palliatives and increase minimum wage to at least 40k.


plpp keep mentioning that fg should increase the minimum wages to easy the civil servant from the petroleum new price, but what about plpp who are not gov workers, what about the citizens who are only hustle just to survive, how would cope? are not to b put into consideration too?

If our foreign reserve situation is not good enough, why is our daft president always on foreign trips? Each trip takes away from our purse and deposits the scarce resources into foreign countries' purses. cry cry cry cry cry

Nigerians did not vote for Dr. Kachikwu and the State governors as President of Nigeria. All those mofos have no credibility, even in their house. Nigerians voted for Buhari as Nigerian President.

Who is the Minister of petroleum? People always relegate Buhari and single Kachukwu for any blame. Kachukwu is the Minister of state for petroleum and buhari is the minister of petroleum.

The APC should stop this buck passing. Buhari was elected because of these kind of things, tough, decisive decisions. A vast majority wanted to tap into his militaty background to institutionalise discipline and cut through political red tape. If he cannot take responsibility in times like this he will severely undermine his respect and if his aides keep on taking political blows on his behalf it is they who will first rebel.
