Akwamkpuruamu:


On who's table does the buck end? Are you saying that Tinubu is another Buhari that's not aware of anything? If a president can't control oil marketers, is it a common man like me and u that will put them under check?

Akwamkpuruamu:


Yes, It was Tinubu that caused all these. He floated the naira knowing fully we are an import dependent nation. This quickly jerked the prices of everything above a bearable threshold. As for the subsidy removal, what measures has been put in place before the knee-jerk removal? Subsidy was to end in June he ended it in May. So how does he expect the sufferings to be lesser? Does he expect the citizens to be suffering and smiling and chanting his praises?

Now you are against petrol marketers, why do you have to blame them? Do you expect them to source for dollars at 800 and import fuel to sell for you at 600. Do you transact business to loss or to profit?

Let it go higher so next election, tribal bigotry go reduce to the barest minimum

Earthquakes:
If there is deregulation why still setting prices
Same thing, naira was devalued yet we still have black market rate, so what's the point

April396949:
It is concerning to see marketers advocating for a petrol price hike amid deregulation. Such a move would disproportionately affect consumers, particularly those who rely on petrol for daily commuting or running essential errands. Increasing petrol prices could lead to a rise in the cost of living, impacting individuals and families already struggling to make ends meet.

Moreover, pushing for a petrol price hike goes against the current trend of society moving towards environmentally friendly alternatives and reducing carbon emissions. Instead of encouraging higher petrol prices, marketers should be actively promoting and incentivizing the adoption of electric vehicles and other sustainable modes of transportation.

Deregulation should not be used as an excuse to exploit consumers or prioritize short-term profits over the well-being of society. It is crucial for policymakers to carefully consider the impact of any potential price increases on individuals and the overall economy before making such adjustments. Ultimately, the priority should be to ensure fair and accessible pricing for petrol while encouraging a shift towards cleaner and greener alternatives.

Una just one scatter this country fast fast , so the cry of the masses means nothing to you guys

The way naira is falling and loosing value every day like olosho breast is what you guys one for petrol too , all the countries in the above news how many of them is an oil producing nation?

ecolime:
Oil marketers are our major problem. They made huge money from subsidies while diverting petroleum products to neighbouring countries. All these in collusion with corruption NNPC & Custom officials.

Now that subsidy is out of the way, na to bring in fuel at N550 and charge Nigerians N700 to 1,000 dey their minds.

The government should do something about these criminals because left to them they don't mind selling fuel N2,000 per liter.

I'm always ashamed of the half baked educated individuals we have in Nigeria displaying their ignorance on Twitter. What I'm saying is if you take your time to study and understand the economic predicament the country is at the moment, you will know it's not the time to be passing blame around.

It is time for the citizens to support any form of policies to eliminate these parasites and saboteurs of the Nigerian state.

These economic problems we are facing is inevitable as its is as a result of accumulated failures of previous governments with the Buhari administration igniting the keg of gun powder with reckless borrowing which I might not blame him, cos the government needs to keep on going.....

The truth is we were expecting economic hardships if the fuel subsidy is remove and the obi or Atiku would have done these.....maybe they might have managed it better, I do not know.....so don't come here and be saying it was because tinubu was voted in that these things are happening

Ezmans:
I thought you people said after deregulation more importer's will import fuel & the price will come down

imohbrothers:
You guys are just pathetic losers! You still think this is about Tinubu? We are talking about a group of cronies here in conjunction with high profile government agents hell bent on ruining the country....Peter obi or Atiku....regardless who is president....subsidy will go

It was only budgeted for until july....so this is highly expected.....u guys should stop thinking like road side illiterates and start stating economic facts and figures here
🤔🤔🤔🤔 This Agbadorian is talking about facts and figures but your president during campaign asked if na statistics we go chop ?

Why is Nigerian govenrment not operating a functional refinery

dazzlingd:
Why can’t we refine our own crude oil?

Fujiyama:

These questions are not good.

The Saudi government has functional refineries. The Norwegian government has functional refineries. The Russian government has functional refineries. But some posters on this platform have reminded us several times that we are not Norwegian, Saudi or Russian. And since we are not, we have to learn to live without what you are asking for.



^^^


Now you are looking for trouble. Like I said earlier, these questions are not good for you.

If you ask these questions, we won't have time to deal with the more difficult stuff. If we refine our own crude oil then we don't have to worry about importation. We don't have to worry about buying fuel imports with scarce foreign exchange. We won't have to worry about shipping costs. Do you really want all this sensible, prudent stuff to be done?

You are asking questions that will set this country on fire and we can't have that. Please go watch Big Brother Nigeria, I beg you.

Driggs:
Tinubu himself knows the country is hanging by a thread.. he won't listen to your advce.. The moment the price moves farther away from 700 to 900 or more, that's when the country will come down crashing..

e go be like Zombie Apocalypse.. How many people Soldier fit kill compared to how many people hunger and poverty wan kill?
