So we should pay 40.naira for fuel at the expense of trillions of naira and drive away investment in new refineries and make it difficult to build new ones so that the masses can enjoy cheap fuel?


Okay.

And to get gas at 87 per liter, government spent over 4 trillion naira in subsidy payments over 5 years

And we got into debt and drained our reserves to achieve it

And even then by 2013 most fuel stations were selling it at 120 and above outside Lagos and abuja

All because in 2012 you.folks wont let gej increase fuel from 65 to 140 to end all of this issues.

It's a cultural thing. When a prehistoric culture that has an imperial mindset invades a given society, hyjacks power and starts dominating the political culture of any given country for an upward of 6 decades, the tendency to entrench poverty and utilize squalid existence as tools for subjugation and total economic and political control increases.. When you are made poor, you have been made powerless..
100 % CORRECT.

You summarize what I've been stressing out to the fools on this forum. They just can't get it, the caliphate system who has been in charge have utilized governmental apparatus among many other anti-masses policies to strangulate the economic abilities of the native indeginious people will surreptitiously actualizing the interest of the emirate who have always been in charge since the dubious flag independence.

The system controlled by dullardin doesn't know how and when to use mind control mechanism..

Suffering at all times is a tool to get more power, and inflict more pain to get the masses engulfed in fear therefore making them easy to control (mind control mechanism)

Nigeria is design to frustrate and suffer her masses

Name one thing masses don’t suffer for, before they get it in Nigeria ?

Recently they thought it been a while Nigerians has suffer they said we should go for NIN registration in the midst of pandemic without proper arrangement


Unfortunately Nigerians are in love with their oppressors, they are used to the suffering and smiling

I will continue to say it, pity yourself if you still have hope in this useless country.

Think he and his landless Fulanis black arabs jihadists doesn't know what his doing? Deamalgamate now.

Someone7:
Agree 100%

Tell me ONE policy, or law, or regulation that benefits the majority of Nigerians. I'll wait

Not a single one

This country is f**ked beyond repair
What was made not to function cannot be repaired. The only solution is deamalgamation. Nigeria is not yours nor mine, it has only served the interest of the fulanis who only runs the oligarchs who are in charge of establishing and expanding the he emirate from the north to other areas as necessary for the British Imperial who created it in 1914 in order to keep the native indeginious underdeveloped and backwards like the fulanis proved to have done to the various native ethnic groups of the north which they labelled Hauzawa (bastards). Wake up. No one is a Nigerian by choice, we are all by force. Time is up for every ethnicity to have it's own nation. Many countries of the world are so tiny and not up to many tribes and yet are doing great while the ones here are trapped in a zoo while the landless fulani supporter of APC continue to orchestrate plans to conquer everyone in their prehistoric mentality of born to rule

Dear Nigerians, if the dullard increases fuel price and we don't hit the streets in protest, then we are enablers of Buhari's wickedness.




Dear Buhari and Osinbanjo you both are wicked and satanic people who don't care about Nigerians.



You and who will hit the street ?

Maybe you don’t know Nigerians are still in love with their oppressors.

I can’t stress my self walking under the sun protesting for a cursed failed irredeemable country.

But you can do your protest when the Increment has been implemented.

Happy protesting.

The fun aspect of this thread is that Nigerians seem to think that a government should fix prices.

Infact, if Nigerians had their way, the government should fix prices for everything, food inclusinve.

For anyone reading this, this is the genesis of the problem.

Once, we had four refinereis by the mid 1980s. Then the governments of the day decided to 1) sell fuel from the refinereis, and not only fuel, other refined products at a cheap price, and 2. pay a subsidy to cover any losses.

As it turned out, rising costs of doing business meant that subsidies were not sustainable long term, but what governments have been doing is raise the price of fuel to a level where they would be able to keep paying some form of subsidy, while compensating marketers with cash in the form of a subsody, and not only marketers, but depot owners and so on ....so that they did not raise prices in the process


(As an example...GEJ's 87 per liter price. Initially when he took over it was N65, but by 2012, the cost of production plus import was N99. GEJ tried to end subsidy by rasing prices to N140 per liter...meaning government would no longer have to pay a subsidy. Labour union protests forced him to cut it to N97...meaning subsidy went down from N34 per liter to N2 PER liter

By 2015 when Bubu took power, fuel was costing N132 to import , while prices of fuel was N87..meaning a subsidy of N45 WAS IN PLACE..up from N2 IN 2012, Bubu raised price to N145, meaning it now cost NOTHING TO subsidse fuel, until the cost of importing fuel rose above N145, necessitaitng price increases to N162

Also in 2017, Buhari forced NNPC to subsidise fuel from its own account. in addition to making them the sole importer, so that he could look good politically...He also paid odff soutstanding subsidy claims from marketers from 2013-date in 2018)

As a result, the whole petroleum industry has been losing money...which is why we don't have functioning refineries since the 1990's when NNPC stopped doing TAM.

And the current arrangement where NNPC is importing and subsidizing fuel at its expense is not working...plus the equalisaiton fund payments for making sure fuel prices stay the same unifromly is not working again too

So either prices go up, or government wastes trillions more subsidizing fuel so that BMB and co can be happy, while we go into more debt.


Low fuel prices means more debt. Allowing marketers to control the price means low prices by way of comeptition, and increased production and more jobs. Is our APC government ready tot ake the decision they should have taken in 2015...? and that PDP wanted to take in 2012, if not for our lust for cheap fuel?

It is in the BEST INTEREST of Federal Government not to increase the pump price of petrol in this PERILOUS time. The reason is that any increase will boomerang with prices of goods and services skyrocketing out of control, which will SCATTER whatever is remaining of our post-COVID-19 fragile economy.

It profits the government nothing but chaos to insist on deregulation at this critical time to impress World Bank and IMF and make life tougher for people.

NNPC should apply the "underrecovery" stuff while we buy time for for Dangote refinery and other refineries to roll out.

Actually it is in our best interest.

NNPC spent 4 trillion in 5 years subsidizing fuel. 4 trillion.

Money that could have been used for other thigs like refinereis....its refinereis.

Also, there are 20 licencess for private refienreis who have not started work because they don't like government price controls at all...it means they would end up refining fuel at a loss.

Look, if we want more refineries, it would be better for government to remove fuel subsidy completely and let marketers control the price. Sure we would pay over N300 for fuel...but all the smuggling, and corruption will stop.
