20 Reasons Why Atiku's N97/litre Fuel Price Is Impossible-keyamo by Amein(m): 11:24am On Nov 07, 2018
A simple check at the international prices will show that even at the world market where gasoline is procured, it will cost not less than N158 to procure a litre of crude oil. When you add the cost of refining, plus freight, finance and port charges (premium), there is no magic that one would employ to supply the finished product at N145 a litre. Presently, the landing cost of the product in Nigeria hovers around N205 per litre."

Festus Keyamo, Director, Strategic Communications, of the President Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Organisation, on Monday night criticised ATiku ABubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Pary (PDP), over his claim that he would lower the pump price of petrol to N77/litre if elected President.
According to Keyamo, there is no chance any President could sell the product for any price in the region of what is being mentioned by Atiku, as the landing price is alone if N205/litre.
"Our attention has been drawn to a statement credited to the PDP a few days ago that its presidential candidate, H.E. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar will, if elected President, crash the pump price of petrol to N97 per litre. However, there is no better evidence of desperation and phantom promises by the main opposition’s candidate than this statement," he said.
"At today’s international price of gasoline, no supplier will ever contemplate any scheme that will deliver products at such ridiculous price. Those in the sector reading this must be having a good laugh at the opposition. A simple check at the international prices will show that even at the world market where gasoline is procured, it will cost not less than N158 to procure a litre of crude oil. When you add the cost of refining, plus freight, finance and port charges (premium), there is no magic that one would employ to supply the finished product at N145 a litre. Presently, the landing cost of the product in Nigeria hovers around N205 per litre.
"The claim by Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is opportunism of the highest order. Nigerians are aware that higher crude oil prices will translate to higher government revenues and a prudent administration will convert the resources to the benefit of the common man.
"This is exactly what President Muhammadu Buhari has done since he mounted the saddle in 2015. The President has worked out a transparent system whereby the whole subsidy regime and scam has been totally eliminated. There is no cash incentive or payment again to middlemen."
Keyamo then went on to itemise the President’s "transparent policy", in 20 points showing the impossibility of Atiku's postulations, as follows:


(1) What obtained under the past government was the ABUSE of the subsidy regime.
(2) The system under the past Government was that independent marketers and all sort of persons were allowed to import petroleum products on their own, declare non-existent volumes of these products and get paid for these non-existent volumes.
(3) In addition, government would then pay them cash for the “loses” (subsidy) in selling at fixed market price.
(4) Under this old system, more than N3trillion was lost.
(5) However, when these independent marketers could no longer bring in products due to high prices of crude and make profit at the fixed market price of N145 to a litre, President Buhari refused to further raise the price of petroleum products beyond the N145 per litre. The President was also not prepared to go back to the subsidy regime. Therefore, President Buhari stopped the scam of overblown volumes and subsidy payments to middlemen.
(6) As a result, NNPC took full charge of getting products for consumption.
(7) Under this arrangement, NNPC would swap crude oil for the exact value of finished products in refineries anywhere the products are available around the world.
(cool Middlemen are only allowed to go and ferry the products and bring into the country and hand over to NNPC.
(9) NNPC will only then pay them for the cost of the logistics of bringing the products in (this is what is called premium).
(10) Even this cost of logistics is now subject to competitive bidding unlike before.
(11) In the past, marketers used to charge $86 per metric ton as cost of logistics (premium) to bring in products.
(12) Under Buhari’s regime when it was subjected to competitive bidding, the highest the government got was $7 per metric ton as cost of logistics to bring in products. More than N3billion has been saved by this bidding process.
(13) Having gotten the value of the crude oil back in terms of finished products, NNPC will now sell at government controlled price which is far lower than the landing cost.
(14) Presently, the landing cost is around N205 per litre, but government sells at N145 per litre.
(15) Therefore, Government just records a loss in NNPC instead of paying cash to middlemen. That loss it suffers is fully reflected when NNPC pays money into the Federation Account.
(16) This also further affects the money accruing to States monthly from the Federation Account.
(17) As a result, this loss that NNPC suffers, (which is recorded as cost of operation of NNPC) is fully subjected to scrutiny by the National Economic Council which also includes the PDP Governors and the Federation Accounts Allocation Committee (FAAC), which includes Commissioners of Finance from PDP States.
(18) If anybody alleges a scam in the process, then the PDP Governors and the States would also be involved because they are involved in jointly scrutinizing the records of NNPC at NEC and FAAC.
(19) No cash settlement for any under recovery is involved, therefore there is no basis for any subsidy payments which is the avenue for fraud.
(20) Therefore, it is true that Buhari is not paying subsidy to anybody.

Buhari needs not pay subsidy to anybody since he may be doing the business himself through Baru

This man thinks he is talking to functional illiterates like Afonjas


Crude was selling less than $40 when Buhari claimed to have removed subsidy and increased the price to 145.

How was Jonathan able to maintain a subsidy price of 97 naira when crude was selling for as much as $120 per barrel?

The fact is that Buhari only accommodated for the devaluation of the Naira which had lost well over 80% of its value owing to a stupid and shoddy forex policy instituted by the APC govt.

Festus you are a big fool to think we are all as dense as the Yoruba idiots your useless logic was originally meant for.

Cc. ImperialYoruba, vedaxcool, sarrki, midolian and other zombie afonjas too inconsequential to mention, Festus don cook food for una.

The new terminology is "under recovery" which they enter as a loss on the books of the NNPC.

According to the Owerllian APC vagabonds, undercover is payment set aside to pay fuel importers the shortfall in landing cost of fuel not to be confused with subsidy payments which is the same thing as under recovery.

So the NNPC under the wise management of Buhari as minister of petroleum who I must add here said he never believed there was a subsidy regime during GEJ, now pays from public funds, money to private fuel importers who were running at a loss importing fuel. But this should not be confused with similar subsidy regimes because Buhari said he has ended subsidy.

Technically there is a subsidy but in actual effect it is under recovery.
