We like doing things upside down in this country.

First, how did we compile list of poor people even when majority of the poor have neither bank account nor national ID card? Secondly, how do we know that savings from subsidy removal will be used for meaningful project?

Again, how does sharing 5k to individuals solve the problem of the hyperinflation that the removal will cause since we are already witnessing a high magnitude inflation? Lastly, does government have any actionable plans on how to stabilize this our crisis ridden economy?

HenryThegreat1:
What's the point removing subsidy then?
This Finance minister and buhari are both the same.
The woman is handling a position she's not qualified for and bigger than her capacity.

Flexherbal:


How do they even reach these poor Nigerians?
I have never seen or heard of any of their palliative activities, in my village and other villages around it.

She is an idiot, completely clueless and a crook, oil subsidies are actually cheaper than handing N5000 to poor Nigerians.

If they remove cheap cooking gas and kerosine how will the poor cook their food? The poor will be forced to use firewood and charcoal wjich will create an environmental catastrophe.

Let them use it to build amenities if they are headbent in removing the subsidy. We don't need the 5k palliative, scammers of the century!!!

system21:
And some people are still canvassing for this wicked people to retain power beyond 2023? How did they come up with this 43million poor Nigeria? I have never see or hear anybody receiving this money in my area

ayenale1:
This is common sense now... Since u have trillions of naira somewhere jobless...use that money to build modular refineries in 15 states and let 200m Nigerians enjoy it instead of some people to embezzle it... Bubu executives are too dump...this finance minister is the dumbest person I've ever seen...

This country is on Autopilot

5000 thou' for an individual living in/at nyanya, maraba, dutse even jahi at the backyard there sef, 5k is nothing,..

fuel price goes up, tfare goes up too! ¤we are bin raped by our own country¤

Ofunaofu:
This APC govt should leave this fuel subsidy issue. They should first Fix our refineries, when these refineries start working subsidy will naturally go.

Rather, they are budgeting huge monies for palliative, at the end of the day we will all be here and hear how the palliative money was embezzled. we will all hear and see that paying for the subsidy would have been cheaper than pay ₦5000 palliative to the so called "poor" Nigerians.

Why, because at the moment we don't even know the exact number of "poor" Nigerians, at first we heard that it will be given to 30 to 40 million poor Nigerians but now we are hearing 42 million "poor" Nigerians and it will keep on ballooning.
