I like the word "for now".

The price quoted by NNPC is of course a hike if Bonny Crude is at 80 USD / barrel and their transaction rate is @N463 or there about. A litre's end price should be at #390 max, that is, after importation.

Now, if Dangote refinery has not shared it's products to the market, we will keep watching ,. Coz I can't imagine hungry Nigerians now ignorantly paying subsidies for lavish expenditures of our executives.

If price doesn't go down gradually after Dongote starts producing, then we have a more serious issue and we will tackle it aggressively.

Indeed

You guys should sort out and straighten out all issues with the Presidency for the sake of peace and smooth transition of this long-overdue process of Subsidy Removal!


Let's not repeat the stupid actions of the current Nigerian President, his predecessor, and their gang of hypocrites leading the nation right now... They are part of the forces that put the nation in this mess they are struggling to clean up!

SoNature:
NLC should insist on removing the subsidy by 50%. When you remove it by 50%, use that money to provide palliatives ahead of total removal in a couple of years.

Why can't the government pay this subsidy to Dangote refinery directly and have the refinery supply it to Nigerians if they claim that corruption is the problem?

What nonsense palliative
Covi19 palliative reach your side?

Go & listen to his manifestos
He clearly stated dat no amount of protest will make him not to remove fuel subsidy
Una clap for him, & laugh
But w all buy same amount

Who go even join una for una useless protest?

U guys are all failures like the politicians also now

NwaNimo1:
We Go protest against NLC.....

These ones no be Nigeria Labour Congress anymore.
Nigeria LabourAPC.

Tinubu has shown that he is not prepared for governance....well his decision making will be done by proxy,he is sick and need rest.

Remember when those Igbo IPOB/ESN people refused to join the protest because they were enjoying the subsidy under GEJ. Imagine if we didn't get rid of them! Lunatics, Everywhere.

The FG effect from January 2923 pays civil servants pervuliar Allowances.

This is 40% of their monthly pay. The Labour union won't tell Nigerians this.

This 40% pervuliar allowances is to assist civil servants due to the subsidy removal cope with transportation.

Labour union cannot embark on strike as civil servants were all paid upto April 2023.

It is the state civil servants that I cannot tell for sure if they are paid pervuliar allowances.

The states governors must do everything to embrace this pervuliar allowances to assist their civil servants.

Cloudflare:
Damn!

Where's Soyinka, Tunde bakare and others who protested against GEJ years ago? I'm sure the fools are blind as to not to see what's happening now.

To those 'this govt go favour me and my family" crew, e dey favour una abi e no dey favour? Fools everywhere!

23million Nigerians (over 99% of voters) voted for fuel subsidy removal. If you voted for PDP, APC, NNPP or LP, you voted for subsidy removal. They all had immediate subsidy removal in their manifestos. If you are complaining maybe you voted for a party that was lying about removing subsidy.

You guys talk about Palliatives, I don't understand the type of palliative you want them to give the people. You mean like the rubbish they gave the citizens during Lockdown era. Bread, Indomie, 1kg rice etc.

What you should be talking about is increasing Minimum wage and giving private companies tax incentives on the condition of Increasing Employee Salaries. Giving grants to Small and Medium scale businesses to cushion the effect of the increased Pump price.

Many Nigerians are under an illusion that there is subsidy money
So they keep talking of

The money The money

People do not get it

Even if government wants to pay subsidy

IT CANNOT
It doesn't have the money
It is owing Nearly 3 trillion so the only way for subsidy is to borrow.
There is a limit to that

Subsidy will stop and THE MONEY you are referring to does not exist

There is no such money.
It was budgeted till June 30
They could not find the money

A long time ago we had room to stop it and divert the money

That time has passed
We are now at the point when the landlord has come to throw out property.


AGAIN there is no money. Buhari has bankrupted the country

Buhari government really succeed in cutting down labour power so I don't expect much from them

How can any reasonable person support subsidy at this time. LABOUR should push for increment in minimum wages to at least 50k and that a win win. Remaining money should be diverted to power and making sure our refineries are working within a very short time.
Subsidy must go… No pain no Gain

There is no need for the NLC and TUC to go on strike on the issue of removal of fuel subsidy.
I have always been in support of the removal of fuel subsidy as no serious government pumps billions of dollars into a wasteful project like fuel subsidy payment.
Nigerians will adapt.
As we all know , adaptation is the basic characteristics of human beings,alongside growth , reproduction,nutrition,etc.😎
We move !

To the best of my knowledge and for the interest of all my fellow youths in Nigeria and in Diaspora, Tinubu is a great and good man . ..

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the best thing that will ever happen to Nigeria as a Country and he is unarguably the best, enlightened, brilliant and the most energetic man for the Job .


God Bless Nigeria and Bola Ahmed Tinubu once again

i dont see any gain here on subsidy remover or its remover having a positive effect on the economy..the money will be looted..hope u are awear that subsidy was removed from diesel and kerosene .wat did they use The Money for?

True !
A Peter Obi of the Labour Party would have removed fuel subsidy if he had been the one that was sworn in on May 29.
Fuel subsidy removal was in Peter Obi and Ahmed-Datti's manifesto.

Subsidy is a scam. Even if the money on subsidy is recoup back to the treasury..APC thieves go still embezle it. Imagine a whooping 3.7trillion embezzled by d MDAs under buhari. Awon oloriburuku.

Can't go to work cos of exorbitant tfare. My company texted that they will deduct 1000 from my salary. Stupid country

This same man was one of d people who lead a protest against subsidy removal during the Jonathan govt, he specifically said subsidy was a scam, so please what is he removing now? That means he is scamming Nigerians.

You guys don't get it. NNPC cash flow cannot support subsidy payments.

If a family cannot afford three square meals they go to 001 or 010 or something like that. They don't go and keep borrowing to eat three square meals because it will dig them into a deeper hole.

If you force NNPC to cough out money from its reserves for instance, then it will can only buy less fuel than it used to = scarcity. What does scarcity mean? Black market prices.

So Government will be spending money on subsidy and yet prices are still black market prices because it can't meet demand.

We've been here before na. Private companies should shave their margins and provide verifiable palliatives which the government can offset with tax rebates. Those who work in government can be given palliative. Private sector especially organised private sector should sort themselves out

No more subsidies

Las las, nah dey masses especially de youth go rescue dis country..

Enuf of planned reaction.. Real change starts when people react spontaneously and continously.

Same you would say , "One man owns Nigeria",
"Dangote isn't a businessman" he is just highly favored by the government.


And more nonsense majority of you guys spill on this forum

Madness dey your head

savcy:
Good. Let nothing stop this removal. We will weather the storm, and with time things will even out and regain balance. Let's see what the governments will complain about after this. Also, let the NNPCL allow interested parties import all the types of petroleum products.

What stops the FG from having at least one functional refinery instead?

its not ideal for government to be involved in this

Are you not tired of lying to yourself?

Are you not tired of believing in the lies your politicians keep telling you?

Same was said during Buhari
"Give him time he just assumed office things will get better
8 years was wasted at the end of it.

You people should stop believing in what you have heard over n over again with no proof
