Ezmans:

As always; useless award.

Buhari and he calls himself the minister of petroleum. Buhari just to bring hardship to the people...so that is why you all should be careful on the type of person you vote into power... negative change, negative next level... nawaoooo

A funny thing on this thread are the GEJ supporters blaming Buhari for the scarcity.

Well, they are right. Buhari is responsible for the scarcity. But when we come to how he is responsible for the scarcity, that is where we differ.

Truth is, for a long time now, we have been refining petrol in substandard refinereis in Belgium and Holland because people want fuel cheap, and the refining costs N200-250 per liter. That enables government to keep subsidy costs as low as possible.

Meanwhile, if we refined fuel at home, it would cost money. Staff salaries, maintenance costs, upgrade costs, etc...means that the price of fuel would be 'according to the market'

For government to subsidse fuel refined at home , it would mean paying high subsides because the cost of production won't be low. (Niger refines fuel at home, and pays N350 at the pump, and they are an oil producer).

Not just Nigeria, most African countries refine fuel aborad. In the same place...because many African countries do not want to face the harsh reality of refining at home. Too too expensive.

We used to refine fuel at home...but in order to keep fuel prices cheap, we started a subsidy regime that forced the industry to operate at a loss, while the subsidy did little to cover their loss. Result...the refineries we had collapsed.

The problem has, and always has been, cheap fuel.

Government should remove the subsidy, and spend it on public transport. Meanwhile, the oil industry should be allowed to make a profit so that it can build standard refinereis with its own money...and maybe cut transport costs by building pipelines. And refine fuel at a standard rate.

Funny thing with ur opinion is that not all here blaming Buhari r GEJ supporters. Y is it that Nigerians hate d truth? This same Buhari n his cohorts lied to Nigerians to make them believe subsidy was a scam, ur suggestion was what GEJ was planning to do, but Tinubu, Buhari n the rest cried foul, n we Nigerians were with them, so u r going back to what they fought against back in 2013/2014. Pls who should we blame for d decite n the lies?

Considering I have supported subsidy removal since 2012, I wonder why you are attacking me?

Besides, it doesn't matter what we think...most Nigerians oppose subsidy removal. Even gej and buhari supporters

But when you can’t get it for 165 in the right place what do you do, would you prefer to walk or get the black market?

OR
