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?

Obaofaba:
Good...

Although I'm sceptical about the fuel subsidy removal at this time.

But the question is, when is the best time or right time to get it removed?

I will still go with the president's directives that it should be removed immediately and in full.

Let's suffer it once and for all and enjoy later.

If it's partially removed now, transporters will still increase their fare and after the some time, if the government remove it totally, they will still increase their fare.

That's double punishment.

I trust Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to roll out his incentive to cussion the effect of the suffering masses.

Greattha:
Or ever.
When have you ever been useful/effective in the past 8 years?

Cantonese:


Why did Tinubu and Buhari lead the protest against FEJ in 2014 against subsidy removal? Why did you all refuse to suffer it “once and for all” then?

Why do you people keep evading that question please?

Basicend:


Bro, you don't get it.

The issue is not about removing the subsidy. ..but which direction are we heading?

Even the quoted price they are forcing th masses to pay now is a hike and the govt knows that. . So there is no transparency in processing and systems.

We can't get anywhere with that. Even some monies are being saved now as claimed, they will still misappropriate about 90% of it into their personal pockets leaving the masses into more sufferings.

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 1products.

Ihateheadslamer:


Let The Nigeria Labour Congress speak for themselves.

The masses will decide whether to protest or endure the# hardship of continuing trekking to their destination

Osaremwantaelvi:
I already said they are dogs without teeth's.

If you don't act now when do you want to.

When the citizens have adjusted?

Parachoko:
Comrade Joe Ajaero, President of NLC fit test his popularity on this issue by calling for a Protest

Subsidy has gone with the Buhari Administration.

I trust Asiwaju on this issue though, he won't backtrack.

maasoap:

They don't need protests, just calling for industrial strike is enough.


Only if there is no prolonged industrial strike. His government will be grounded.

BreconHills:


I dont blame you for distrusting government. The trust deficit can only be bridged by the government. I can't speak to that.

However there is a subsidy. Subsidy does not even equal availability because the subsidy makes it attractive to sell to neighbouring countries. I don't know if you've seen that prices have risen in our neighbouring countries and they are lamenting.weve been subsidising our neighbours and starving ourselves.

As for trust deficit, bridging this will take a lot of time and consistency by the government.

Good morning

Parachoko:
Well, a protest or strike by NLC will fail woefully.

Absolute Majority of Nigerians are with Asiwaju on this subsidy issue

Subsidy is gone.

maasoap:


Absolute majority! Lol. When you are done deceiving yourself, just let yourself know.

Parachoko:
Yea, absolute majority of Nigerians are with Asiwaju

NLC strike might be successful in the South East though, not in other part of the country.

AntiChristian:
FG is still owning NNPC limited trillions of subsidy money that is unavailable! Where will both the 50% you mentioned come from?

Should the government borrow money from China again or where? We subsidize fuel for too many elites and foreigners! Those who smuggle the subsidized petrol to Benin, Cameroon, etc will by at 185 and sell like 450! The cost of petrol in those places is between 500 and 600+.
Smugglers become millionaires, elites pay less for fuel while FG accrues more debt from subsidy!

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!

maasoap:

I'm in transport in SW, there strike will be highly welcomed and supported

Reussite:
Of course Labour has suddenly lost their voice because it is APC that is concerned. If it were a gentle Jonathan, it would have been a nationwide shutdown.

OGHENAOGIE:
why not lead your own abi you no bi human being...

AareGaa:


Don't wait for Wole Soyinka or Bakare.
Go on the street and protest. You can do a one- man protest or call your friends to join.
Soyinka was not up to your age when he started fighting injustices.

Cloudflare:


Dude, I was never against GEJ, neither Did I protested against him. Let those aforementioned names who were all against GEJ when fuel was #150, where are they? Let them come out and protest now!

OGHENAOGIE:
lead your own sir... They did then maybe they Saw no reason like you Saw no reason to protest against GEJ... So since u opposed it now please lead the protest and stop blame games...

BJanta:


Especially in the Southeast!!!!!!

Cloudflare:


Let those like you who supported Tinubu lead the prostest. You voted for the drug lord and now he's dealing with you, and you said someone else should lead the prostest for you? Ment or malaria?
