I think it's time for this country to prioritize union busting and breaking up trade associations. We can't say we've truly liberalised the market if unions and associations take up the former roles of government and hold the country to ransom.

Also, there's a reason there are no unions in free market economies - they exist to only serve to stagnate the economy.

The NLC is right on this. Government should not be robbing Peter to pay Paul.

There is nothing wrong in subsidy remover. However, there is lack of transparency in government, which makes the people not to trust their intentions.

Removal of subsidy is good but how sure are we the money won't end or go back to the politicians. They are not to be trusted

We are unperturbed by this latest campaign to turn a legitimate demand by the Nigerian people into a tribal and ethnic divisive campaign



In his words to Goodluck Jonathan during the 2012 subsidy removal, Tinubu told Jonathan that he has destroyed the social contract he has with the people by removing subsidy on petrol.

Nigerians are saying the same thing to Tinubu today, you have destroyed the social contract by increasing the pump price of fuel by over 300%

Tinubu should be told a bitter lesson of his life, Nigeria is not Lagos where he toys with them like chickens. He wants to repay back his money within days grin, it's not possible, who ask you to bribe your way to the presidency?

Believe Nigerian government officials at your own peril.
They invested heavily in the Dangote group on an individual basis. The group borrowed US $3 billion to build the refinery, which evidently cost US $3.8 billion to build.

Fraud No 1 - The refinery was revalued in paper to US $13.9 billion when it was 70% completed.

Fraud No 2 - NNPC led by Mele Kyari, the statutory industry regulator and affirmatively a competitor with four moribund refineries in Port Harcourt, Warri and Kaduna, decided without public knowledge or imput, to buy 20% shares in Dangote Refinery. 20% shares is US $2.8 Billion.

The total amount required to revamp Warri and Port Harcourt refineries is US $2.65 billion. The question here is, what is the special interest in Dangote Refinery?

Fraud No 3 - The president of Nigeria hurriedly commissioned a refinery that is only 80% completed. The refinery may not be functional until January 2024.

NNPC, the industry regulator had advised the House of Representatives Appropriation Committee that the Dangote Refinery would be up and Running in March 2023 hence there would be no need to make provisions for Subsidy in 2023/24 Budget. Unfortunately, the Refinery is not ready and there are no provisions for subsidy in the budget.

At the commissioning of the half baked Refinery, Emefiele, the famous Central Bank Governor, announced that Dangote had paid 70% of the loan he took for the Refinery. I am forced to ask, how did a Refinery that is not operational raise money to pay 70%? The Nigeria stock exchange does not have any record of share sales in relation to Dangote Refinery other than the NNPC investment.

Fraud No 4 -When Dangote came into cement production, the government brought in a fictitous quality standard designed to restrict cement supply to his company and cut off all imports. The same style has now been adopted to grant Dangote the exclusive right to supply petrol to NNPC at a price determined by Dangote and his co- travellers.

Conclusion - the subsidy removal was planned and agreed by the government as a pre-condition for Dangote to build a refinery when the Western world is moving away from Fossil Fuel. The removal of the subsidy is to maximise profits for the owners of Dangote Refinery ie Mr Buhari, Mele Kyari, Emefiele, and so on. The list is long. They do not care about the common man. They forgot that there is no social welfare in Nigeria
.

They can tell us stories about loans and palliatives to deceive us as usual.

What they do not know is that Nigeria is about to be set on default setting!πŸ™†β€β™‚οΈπŸ™†β€β™‚οΈπŸ§ŽπŸ½β€β™‚οΈπŸ§ŽπŸ½β€β™‚οΈπŸ‡³πŸ‡¬πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜Ž

Majority of the LABOUR LEADERS do illegal bunkering and are members of the subsidy cabals. The removal of subsidy will nail their overzealous lifestyle.
Neighbouring countries always grease their palms to ensure subsidy regime stays.
Why should Nigeria announced the removal of subsidy and the Neighboring countries are wailing. FOR WHAT ?
