I've been reading about the hardship of my people due to the nation wide planned strike, please share with us how this wahala has affected you. My heart goes out to my Nigerian brothers and sisters, only God can save us.

Amen to that. i keep saying it that some Nigerian leaders in fact most of them are so daft, they don't think before making decisions. two wrongs can never make a right.

Well, I'm supposed to submit a proposal for a project and this whole strike has crippled everything. This strike has taken me back 2 months in terms of planning and logistics. All the signatures I have collated are going to expire. I have to start retyping the proposals and running around all over again to get the endorsement of those organizations all over again.

In fact, I just hope I'm not finished.

sorry ohh

The cost of fuel, the long queues, the black market, its crazy. But labour has to do this, if not tge price wont go down as well as the vat. Its all the fault of that slowpoke at Otta

It is the fault of NLC. Were they not the ones who used their strikes to force the man in Otta to accept to IMF plan?

All the problems that we've had in the last 7 years including privatization of refineries, job cuts, everything apart from the power problem and MEND, was caused by labour.

Oshiomole just finished this country. How can NLC strike us into accepting the IMF program and now strike against implementing it.

Denex, get the f*uck out of here! You do not fool anyone with your silly posts.

We all know that you work with the government and you are one of the corrupt bastards who are ruining our country and putting us through all these hardship.

Mr. Denex, a.k.a. Mr. Politician, please take your pro-government speeches and waka abeg.

Thank You. 

@Razorr

abeg if you get government job for me, I no run. I'm a unit production manager in a multimedia firm. Na only recently I decide to to delve into event hosting in order to restructure my bank account. Maybe if you explore the entertainment segment of this website you would have seen my posts. Instead, you restrict your movement to politics which you hardly know anything about.

Anyway, fact that I don't work for the government does not mean I will accuse them of something they did not do. Were you not on this planet when NLC was striking so that OBJ would accept the IMF plan?

Just because it contained a clause that mentioned a salary increase.

And why is it that you never see my posts when I criticize the government? Eye dey pain you?
Abeg, I don't even have time to draw words with you.

Please don't make me laugh.   Politics? Please ask the Admin about what parts of the forum I visit most often.  

I've observed that you always make pro-governement posts. Infact, I've seen some posts from you that made me want to slap you.  

I can bet that you eat from the government or have a relative in power (is daddy a politician?   ).

Anyway, I have decided to give myself the job of hounding and criticising you whenever I see pro-government posts from you, you bloody self-servicer.  

Blatant nonsense.    

In other words, you are admitting that you are not mentally stable. To decide that you will go about attacking me wherever I make pro-government statements. That is a form of dependency syndrome.

You're also admitting bias. By saying you will only attack me when I make pro-government posts. So if I make anti-government statements, you will not bother me. You just declared yourself an irrational individual.

Abeg, stop trying to use me to become popular on Nairaland. Abi are you Eedris?

By the way, I make pro-Nigerian statements, whether pro- or antigovernment. And if Nigeria messes up, I'll make anti-Nigerian comments. So mr Razorr, get a life and stop living in my shadow.

Denex, I have come to only one conclusion - you're both ignorant and crazy.

For your infoa, I don't need you to gain popularity, as I'm already popular enough on Nairaland (I see you're a newcomer).  

I have plenty of time and I am sick and tired of hypocritical corrupt politicians like you.

I'm tired of your bullshit, so hounding you would not be any stress, rather, it would be part of fulfilling my duty to motherland to rid her of corruption.

Nonsense!  

Please if anyone has heard of this Razorr individual who claims to be popular, they should indicate below.

This denex guy is bad news; an abomination of the assyrians. I have even tried to talk with him one on one to see what his point is but like the man made gods he cannot even speak.

[b]Denex [/b]or what every you called yourself, let me make it clear here that you are such an arrogant and selfish humanbeing, how can you be supporting a Government that keeps our country in this bad mode? you need to be arrested.

@Denex.

You talk of international pricing, then maybe your friends - them looters in government should give us roads, water, housing, health & salaries of international standards. I don't need you to make me relevant anywhere so stop making an issue of that; it smirks of inferiority complex

Now we have to stoop to the "THEM"/"THEY" ideology. They should put food on the table, they should give us water, they should put money in our pockets. Goodluck to you and THEM.

can we all just ignore denex pls. his frustration is because he missed submitting his proposal. make we dash am i beg

Of course that is my frustration. What do you think this thread is about? It says "how is the strike affecting you?" it didn't say "please lets have a neverending discussion".

I think you're the one who should be ignored because youre in the wrong place.

LOL!! i am laughing my head off at YOU!
selfish man

@denex,

Suprisingly u do have a verygood point, i think the issue here was in the way the government increased it without consultations or anything. They didnt go through the formal process. It will be good if Government can highlight a plan on proposed increases and when they are supposed to take effect. Then people won't see this as a goodbye present.

Its affecting me real good; I have not been having my siesta for a very long time. Today I have had a siesday. Took a long walk and praised God for the gift of trees, fresh air, rain and life.

These strikes are stupid. People should realize that with the amount of money that Nigeria will lose daily from the strike, an alleviation of the Fuel Hike will be indifferent from the Previous situation.

Nigeria will be losing N50.5 billion daily form the Nationwide strike.

What a controversial thread  . I think some people need to be suspend rather banned  .


You all need understanding. You need to understand the post of others before reply  .No controversial speech again else i`ll    ,

dblock:

Nigeria will be losing N50.5 billion daily form the Nationwide strike.

True

Guys,

I think we should allow Denex to express his opinions without being hounded. We are all entitled to our opinions. Denex sorry about your setback, may the Almighty grant you strength and grace to go over the whole thing again.

I do not agree with him though and I am trying hard to recollect any NLC strike for the implementation of the IMF plan. Denex please can you remind me?

I support the strike fully even as I have lost about 1.3m in deals during this period and construction work on one of my projects has been stalled due to my inability to access cash in the bank.

A very sizeable number of Nigerians are impoverished and live way below the poverty line, how can the govt increase the pump prices of fuel at this time!!!!!!!! Why would Nigerians be made to pay for the inability of its govt to make the refineries work or even sell them off in a transparent process?

The solution to this perennial price hike is for the country to increase its LOCAL refining capacity, if we are able to refine locally, then there would be no need for subsidies as the price per litre of petrol would be way below 50 naira.

We all know that there is no alternative to the use of fuels and no cheaper modes of transport, the increase in the price of fuels and VAT would jack up prices and further draw Many Nigerians below the poverty line. I then ask what is the benefit of being crude producers when we suffer in more in a time of boom like this.

I support the strike and I plead with the Govt to revert to the old pump prices. It is too early for this govt to wage war on its citizens like the Govt of OBJ.
