No reasonable person would be against the removal of fuel subsidy. The problem now is the manner in which it was removed.

Let me leave this here for the mumu wey go enter this thread.

Hopium:
You are only wailing.

"Wait for 3 months"

Olodo! Where was this tears when Buhari removed subsidy in January?

In case you miss it, Buhari didn't include the fuel subsidy component in the approved budget for 2023 he sent to the National Assembly. FYI, the budget covers June 2023 - June 2024.

Stop piling the blame on Tinubu. It's really sad that the majority of Nigerians know nothing about governance; little wonder they keep electing clown lawmakers. Where was everyone when the lawmakers signed the budget? I mean Buhari cooked a budget without subsidy, no one batted an eye; now that the budget is about kick in after 6 months, una begin wail. Aren't you people stupid? Please answer. Aren't you as citizens clueless?

As a matter of fact, these rants are all because Obi didn't win. If he had won, and he put his money where his mouth is, he would have removed the subsidy *immediately* *like he promised*. The effect would have been same. And FYI again,*there won't have been any subsidy for him to remove* because *Buhari had already removed subsidy in Jan 2023* before *Obi takes power*. Probably these rants would have been coming from Batists and Atiku boys.

All of una hypocrisy stink. You don't care that hardship is in the land because of subsidy removal *which was inevitable and necessary*. The complaints is because the man you desist is handling the affairs. I swear if na Obi, we won't hear pim.

God forbid that we go back to the days of subsidy. Now everyone will sit tight, citizens and leaders. Everyone. The days of laziness is over.*Don't bring that Nigerians are hardworking crap* Going forward, Nigerians will shun mental laziness.

The removal is not biting yet, this is just prelude. When the real pain starts,*like a addict suffering withdrawal symptoms* everyone one will open mouth, protest, pressurized their governors, leaders, president, ministers to do their job. Una see that epileptic power supply, it will fixed and citizens will be ones to jumpstart that process. Una see that #6trn subsidy fund that is now free, na una citizens go monitor am to make sure una leaders use am for the proper projects.

If you're an elected public officer, you better sit tight. The days of nonsense is over. Any leader wey do rubbish next 4 years is going home because the citizens are angry now *they've been pushed to the wall* and they had better see results. Thank God this last election set a precedence that power is indeed in the hands of people.

For citizens, look at the brighter future; the future is bright for the country if Tinubu can implement all his promises. For the first time in like forever, we have a president that knows what he's doing. All we can hope for he that he lands this airplane safely. We are on the right track. But don't sleep, pressurize his government so he won't slack.

Obidients you are doing good as an opposition, keep applying pressure. We pray that PDP wakes up and apply pressure too. Days of laxity is over. Everyone has a part to play.

Like I've said the future is bright. Now is the time prepare yourselves *I'm talking to the hardworking, intelligent, and enterprising*. You will reap the fruit of the land. Just don't get distracted by the noise. Keep your heads down.

Lastly, Buhari before he retired signed some game changing policies. Now states have automy in power generation and distribution. Man-mark your governors to improved power generation. States should look at what Lagos and Ekiti are doing their PPP power projects.

In the new Nigeria, not all states will look the same. We will get to see states with innovative leaders. Men will standout from the boys.

Thanks

So you are claiming you do not know subsidy will end in the first quarter of this year since last year?

What measures did the govt take before the total removal.

Who were the stakeholders consulted before the removal. What are the basic infrastructure puts in place as an absorber.

Re: How President Ruto Removed Fuel Subsidy by walexbiz(m): 7:46am On Jun 01, 2023
Every Nigerian or most Nigerian understands that subsidy enriches only some selected few. Subsidy is not a bad thing it's just an avenue for government to alleviate t the harsh economic reality bedevilling the masses but unfortunately some wicked Nigerians are exploiting the scheme. The government have become so inept to arrest and prosecute those who are engaging in this nefarious activities, this individuals or group of individuals who are exploiting this scheme are close associate of those in power and the government either looks away. Now to the present reality, the subsidy as been removed without corresponding increment in the purchasing power of the people could lead down turn in the economy since the purchasing power of the people is gradually been eroded as the minimum wage or salary increment of workers is not been taken into consideration before the subsidy removal. Also it's on record that corruption is the main social vice afflicting our nation and if it's not address it will consume every good will. My point here is the removal of subsidy will put more money in the hands of governor who will eventually squander it for unimportant personal project.

Most times, I don't understand the politics people play. You'll be in your house, probably still eating "Mama thank you" at age 40, and still be yarning stuffs like these. Go outside to the real world and see how Nigerians are suffering.

No reasonable person?

The people responsible for removing it, are they reasonable enough with human empathy to provide an immediate solution?
Automatically removing fuel subsidy without any viable plan on your first day?

At least after the weekly riots they went back home to enjoy 24hrs public power supply, not carrying cans looking for where to buy petrol for their generators.

How will you have stable power and constant supply of fuel if you continue to use half of your meagre budget on fuel subsidy alone? That's why it has to be yanked out like a bad tooth.

Don't mind him. Funnily enough, I recall how same lack of fuel, alongside scarcity of money policy and power were supported throughout the whole two months leading to election time. Some felt it wouldn't make Tinubu to win. That's why I laugh when I see some people saying gibberish about mandate stolen. Lol. What mandate was stolen exactly? Even most of the people in the federal government were against Tinubu yet he won. Man has been building his whole structure all his life from 1999 but you all thought it was a joke..

Anyway, I know Tinubu is quite capable of handling the whole subsidy stuff and the marketers. He handled OBj bullshit while he was Lagos state governor for example despite Obj being the President!

You and I know that fuel subsidy is not the reason why Nigerians do not enjoy uninterrupted power supply but misappropriation and outright embezzlements of resources with beneficiaries going scot-free because Kenyan government subsidized their petroleum products and still ensured 24/7 electricity supply. I lived and worked in Nairobi, it is very, very, very difficult to see a generator in people's homes and that is a reflection of their confidence in their public power supply system.

In 2012 when Jonathan removed fuel subsidy,he said it will bring hardship and also told the government on what to do,why is he not following his advice in 2023 or the hardship in 2012 is different from the hardship in 2023?

The billions Buhari wasted in feeding school children and the stipends he handed out to traders in the form of trader moni should have been used to provide some basic infrastructure that could have helped to cushion the effect of this subsidy removal. This APC party doesn't deserve to be reelected. We are our own problem.
