No Fuel Increment Until Conclusion Of FG, Labour Talks – Sylva by Omooba77: 2:56pm On Mar 12, 2021
Chief Timipre Sylva, Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, says there will be no increment in the pump price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) until conclusion of consultation with Organised

Sylva gave the assurance while addressing newsmen on Friday in Lagos.

The minister said the clarification was necessitated by reports that the price of PMS, commonly known as petrol, had been increased to N212.61 per litre.

He said: ” Irrespective of the source of that information, I want to assure you that it is completely untrue.

“Neither Mr President who is the Minister of Petroleum Resources nor myself who deputise for him as minister of state has approved that petrol price should be increased by one naira.

“I therefore urge you to disregard this misleading information.”


According to him, for the past few months, the government has been in consultation with organised labour to find the least painful option to respond to the global rise of crude price which has inevitably led to increase in petrol prices.

He said it was unthinkable that government would unilaterally abandon these discussions and act in the manner suggested by the information under reference.

Sylva maintained that cynicism and deceit have never been the trademark of the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.

“I will like to equally assure you that the engagement with the organised labour and other stakeholders will continue even as the calculations to arrive at a reasonable price regime are being done; all in good faith and you will be availed of the final outcome at the appropriate time.

“Until then, all marketers are strongly advised to maintain the current pump price of PMS before the emergence of this unfortunate information.

“Those who may want to take advantage of this unfortunate information to extort Nigerians should not give in to such temptations as there are regulatory mechanisms that government can enforce to protect its citizens.


“In conclusion, I want to sincerely apologise to all Nigerians for any distress and inconvenience the unfortunate information might have caused, “he said.

One needs no more proof that PMS price has been increased.

Nigeria has been practicing Ironicracy since the inception of this administration.

Well, it is possible the appropriate authority has not taken an official position on the expected new pump price, but some inquisitive mind might have had access to documents highlighting what the discussion will be centred around.

And as the case has always been, any rumoured information about govt planned action inimical to the masses always turn out to be true, so we are all bracing up for when official announcement will be made. It won't be different from the rumoured price.

However, since this information has leaked, we all know the official announcement might be significantly different, just to prove a point.

Increase in international oil price that should be a blessing to oil producing countries is being turned by some greedy folks in authorities into hardship.

Since the price has increased internationally, instead of devising a means to cushion effect of the increased landing cost, the masses will rather bear that cost while few of you enjoy the windfall.

Make una continue.

So if labour agrees to the increment, then boom!

What's the percentage of the workforce on the FG and State payroll compared to the multitude of masses that will feel the pangs of the increment.

Surely they're testing the waters.
