For once , the dwarf demon is right...

Here is an article from the Guardian in 2018 in essence confirming what he said

Responding to The Guardian’s enquiry, Spokesperson for NNPC, Ndu Ughamadu, confirmed that large quantities of both imported and locally-refined petroleum products were being smuggled to neighbouring countries.


He said: “In fact, in Ghana, there is a special name and local market for these smuggled products particularly Premium Motor Spirit (petrol).

“A reason for the smuggling is the huge attractive and sumptuous price differential between what petrol is sold in the Nigerian open market vis-à-vis those of the neighbouring countries; the wider the gaps, the more the smuggling and price distortions.”

Also condemning the huge subsidy burden, an independent marketer and Managing Director, Petrocam Trading Nigeria Limited, Patrick Ilo, described the incidence as unwarranted.

Ilo said: “The country is losing close to about N1.2 billion everyday subsidising fuel, and it is like a free gift to marketers. About seven nations around Nigeria are not subsidising petrol.

“The product is being taken outside Nigeria, and they are the ones benefitting. There are over 2,700 filling stations around the borders of Nigeria providing these leakages. This kind of money we use in subsidising the product should be used to build infrastructure and some other things in the country.”

A major marketer also told The Guardian in confidence that the 60 million litres far exceeds what Nigerian can consume per day.

By his estimation, 25 million litres daily could be “justifiable” against the 35 million previously peddled by government.

“This is a case of gross abuse on the side of the authorities saddled with the responsibility to bring in petrol into the country. It is unfortunate,” he lamented.

He maintained that a large chuck of the daily subsidy the NNPC claims to be paying on petrol was obviously subsidies on petrol consumed by neighbouring countries around Nigeria.


And from the Punch

But Ali decried that apart from spending on subsidies, the subsidised fuel was being smuggled to other West African countries where the pump prices were higher.

The Customs boss said, “The issue of smuggling of fuel from Nigeria to the neighbouring countries is simply because of price differential. The prices outside our shores and borders are higher, and that is what attracts people to move this product outside. And this product is not only limited to Benin, Niger or Chad, it goes up to Mali

He, El Rufai , is even understating the level of the problem by a wide margin.

Below is a map showing the extent of the problem.

The truth is that government is not even sincere about the fuel subsidy regime.
They are talking about it as if when it is removed we will have somuch money to solve all our problems
It will solve a part of the problem. That's all that matters.

EL RUFAI signifies
FAILURE. This is the same Midget that campaigned against removal of fuel subsidy during GEJ's PDP administration. Now he is in support of the removal. I pray, what ever table they (APC)have prepared for Nigerians through propaganda to feast shall hunt and plunge them and their generation unborn. They don't have Nigeria interest at heart but rather their selfish ambition to rule Nigeria. Every time borrow, with rubber stamp legislatives approving it. How much is Nigeria owing ($34.4t)with out hope of paying by the APC. They have scavenged on our tax payers resources, they will never go unpunished including that brown teeth, drug baron of 2015 election ikoyi bullion van bastard.

Seriously. Cameroon wey get refinery shut it down because they get cheap fuel from Nigeria that doesn't have a refinery and sell fuel at a very high cost to it's citizens.

Truly this life no balance.



Believe APC at your own peril. SONARA refinery in Limbe, Cameroon is very functional. Don't know what Rufai is talking about.

Although smuggled fuel from Nigeria is cheaper than the normal price of fuel in Cameroon.

Everyone would simply increase their price. Urgent 2k will become urgent 4.5k, literally an 88% increase in price of whatever you're buying or selling across board for everything to balance, including salaries!

Total fuel subsidy removal is a Good thing.
But Elrufai and buhari where Critically against Goodluck Jonathan on total fuel subsidy removal in 2011, and their people agreed with them then. What Change?
Southern nigerian should Be wise. Love your leader no matter what he is doing. Check My Signature




Gos bless you.
They did that against GEJ, staged demonstrations, called him so many names, and now want to do exactly what he wanted to do back in 2012.
Now no one has apologized to him and to Nigerias for taking us aback.

Now did they not tell us that they have removed the subsidy back in 2015/2016 which was the reason given for the increment of the pump price from #97 to #165?
