To pursue the struggles started by Othman Dan Fodio in Nigeria, that's all that guides Buhari as president of Nigeria.

wallrichy:
Muhammed, Yes, so many leaking brains we have in this country. Starting from the idiot and demented soul that called himself the President.... Buhari has a leaking brain and almost empty presently. Likewise Melee Kyari etc...... Bunch of failures always looking for more ways to afflict Nigerians. That bullshits you are talking about should be prepared by you mix it with Cow Urine and feed it as breakfast to Buhari and his cohorts of vampires parading as leaders in that their coven call Aso Rock. Buhari has always been a failure and a mean terrorist and will never change. He came crying like a baby, begging people to vote for him and condemning all the atrocities the GEJ govt. was committing then, he sworn he would be better but what do we have today? Terrorism has been institutionalised, Corruption has been lifted and encrypted into Nigeria constitution, Senseless extra judicial Killing of Nigerians by Security personnel is the order of the day, Education is at abysmal level and nobody is doing anything about it. More and more terrible things going but some idiots will still come and praised the modafukka call Buhari. Forget about fuel Muhammad, the question is .......Is Nigeria fairing well under Buhari the demented soul from Sahel as compare to Jonathan regime?

I was expecting you to come up with an intelligent defense on the subject matter. As usual, that is just the way we are in Naija.

The problem also is whether Nigerians want to buy fuel at market price or at government subsidised price

Ogun and Amadioha will surely punish Buhari, Osinbajo, their generations and All the useful idiots that helped in fostering this calamity of a government upon Nigerians

The real problem is Nigeria's lack of energy security and strategy.

The decision on whether Nigerians pay market price or subsidised price is a secondary problem right now.

Nigeria cannot even source good quality refined oil for transport, home use or industry. Nigeria is not an oil-producing state but an oil-consuming country.

Despite years of sanctions by the West, the Iranian government has managed to refine 2.2 million barrel of crude oil per day and now intend to increase their capacity to 3.5 million.

Iran offers the highest amount of energy subsidies in the world, the government news agency IRNA has highlighted amid a big financial crunch and budget deficit.

In a detailed article on Friday, IRNA again raised the issue of subsidies, this time the cheap energy the Islamic Republic has been providing to businesses and individuals for more than 40 years, costing the government hundreds of billions of dollars.

The ultra-conservative government of President Ebrahim Raisi that assumed power last August has been hammering on the issues of food and fuel subsidies amid United States sanctions that have drained its coffers. His administration is in a position to raise the issue, since ultra-conservatives are in full control of both the executive and the parliament, without fear of any organized opposition.

IRNA says that in total Iran paid almost $30 in indirect energy subsidies in 2020, as it sold gasoline, diesel, electricity and natural gas eight times cheaper to its people than minimum prices in the Persian Gulf region, which already has low prices.

The result was that compared to world total of $181 billion in energy subsidies, Iran was the biggest single provider with more than 16 percent of the world total. If we look at the breakdown, the government offered indirect subsidies of $5 billion in oil products, $12.5 billion in electricity and $12.2 billion in natural gas.

Iran’s share of global natural gas subsidies is 33 percent and for gasoline 35 percent.

A gallon of gasoline is sold to people for a little over 20 US cents, while in the Persian Gulf region bulk gasoline prices are over two dollars a gallon.

No one really can say why the government has kept selling energy so cheaply for the last 33 years, after wartime emergency ended when the Iraq-Iran eight-year conflict came to a close in 1988. The revolutionary Islamic government that came to power in 1979 promised free electricity and water to the population and then war broke out in 1980, which forced the new regime to guarantee the essential amount of food and necessities to a shell-shocked population.

After the war, as a new government somewhat liberalized the economy, no one seriously dealt with the problem of energy subsidies, although some occasionally raised the issue. But overtime the low rate for electricity and gas resulted in extremely high usage by consumers, to the extent that Iranian households have one the highest rates of gas consumption in the world.

Iran is third after Russia and the United States in per capita gas consumption, to the extent that as the holder of the second largest gas reserves in the world it is barely able to satisfy domestic consumption, with little left for export to Iraq and Turkey.

Still, the $30 billion spent to provide cheap energy cited by the government would be much higher if the Iranian currency had not lost its value eightfold since 2017. The subsidy amount converted into dollars is much less than the $45 billion mentioned a few years ago as annual energy subsidy cost. In 40 years, the total for energy subsidies would be more than one trillion dollars, a huge amount for a country that has lagged in investments into its oil and gas sector.

Although the Raisi administration seems to be more than willing to reduce subsidies, the regime as a whole is not ready for the possible political risks involved. In November 2019 when the government raised gasoline prices, unrest engulfed the country and ended with hundreds dead as security forces used military weapons to fire on protesters.

Ndigbo- rejected Buhari Twice - Fact

Buhari’s Statement At The US Institute Of Peace That Made Everyone Cringe.


President Buhari looked at Dr. Baker and said, “I hope you have a copy of the election results. The constituents, for example, gave me 97% [of the vote] cannot in all honesty be treated on some issues with constituencies that gave me 5%.”

The statement immediately elicited fireworks across Nigeria and has continued to define the legacy of Mr Buhari’s presidency. He has since sidelined the Igbo-dominated South-East from national security, economy and other critical areas of democratic governance.

Mr Buhari did not apologise or walk back his comments more than six years on, and Mr Adesina’s response to Vanguard on the matter indicates the administration’s intention to dig its heels in.

“The highest place where Buhari got maybe about 20% was Abia due to Kalu’s influence, in Ebonyi because David Umahi even when he was in PDP had always loved the President,” Mr Adesina said. “He didn’t score more than 20% anywhere even when what he required was 25%. So the southeasterners will need to readdress their politics, play more national politics.”

“You first take care of the needs of those who gave you 95% before those who gave you 5%, it is natural,” he added.


So dig in ; do your research.
Ndigbo and Buhari hates each other ; its mutual.

Na lie.
In 2003 General election, IGBO People voted enmass for Buhari but gave ZERO votes to their own Brother, Ojukwu. Who also contested for President.

Igbos will always vote for any Northerner against any of their Igbo Brother who is contesting for the same position.

Well, Iran can afford to pay subsides and also keep its refineries running because it produces 4.4m barrels of crude a day and has a population of 84million compared to Nigeria's 1.3m bpd and 211 million people.

Also, Iran has issues WITH subsides...
