We have requested that this money should be used to revive our ailing refineries. The governors will simply loot this N5b and the people will continue to get poorer
Dangote has spent about 20billion dollars on his refinery, yet we are still waiting. The govt should revive youwin project of jonathan era to stimulate sme startups

Truth hurts

Am so glad to be an Igbo man,the 3rd class tribe.We are sitted watching how the 1st class (hausas/fulanis)and 2nd class (yorubas) are in this political marriage together

Funny enough this will the last time hausas will vote for yorubas,tinubu have destroyed Yoruba presidential chances in future,I read a post today about Atiku,Kwankwaso and Obi forming a merger 😁I don't really believe it though but the truth is;

1,Seeing the drums of war tinubu(most yorubas)are beating against Niger(Hausa brothers)

2,The betrayal tinubu gave hell rufai😁

3,the despicable and agonizing state of the nation.

I will say in conclusion that the political marriage between those two tribes is heading to a divorce.😁infact if tinubu is wise he should be working on division of Nigeria because in time to come.....una go explain tire 😁

Anyways
TRUTH HURTS 💯

FG borrowed 500bn for palliatives and gave 5bn to each state plus the FCT. Now, 5 x 36(+1) = 185. Therefore, 500 - 185 = 315.

In other words where is the remaining 315bn from the loan, was it used to purchase the bags of rice distributed to the 36 states to cushion the effect of fuel subsidy removal?

Now, my other questions are how is the distribution of 5 trucks of rice (rice oo) to states, mind you some states have tens of millions of residents, help in remedying the high price of PMS, (2) if they really mean well, why can’t they use this monies to build refineries and industries to create employment and end the importation of PMS (3) why didn’t they use the CBN to disburse the monies to every Nigerian using BVN? And who is deceiving who?

They are deceiving themselves undecided

The question is not the arithmetic of distribution (as Mr. Osibanjo used to say that the problem of Nigeria was/is the distribution of resources).

Rather the problem of Nigeria is structural. As to how democracy works. How the nation/Nigeria is governed. Who decides what is the question for today.

I asked the other day.
* Who decided that a 'palliative' was what Nigerians needed at this time.
* Who decided the palliative in the sum of 500 billion.
* Who decided what portion of it to be monetised.
* Who decided bags of maize and rice was the best course of action.... And on and on.

Because I have not seen or heard anywhere where these things were considered, debated or where the people agreed to what is happening. Where?

Is this how democracy works anywhere it works well in the world?
How can things be operated this way and be transparent and without rancour and suspicion.

Pls Nigerians. Know this. As long as you are not in charge of your governance, nothing is bound to work the way you think or expect, or for your good ultimately.

As long as the citizen is viewed as a child, the access to his inheritance remains suspended until he comes of age.

That is, grows in knowledge and will and is prepared to act responsibly to direct HIS OWN AFFAIRS. The office of the citizen is a critical one in the success of any democracy. Nigeria's remains a kindergarten.

We always borrow and pay interest.
People borrow when there is a dire need not for frivolity. This borrowing is for frivolity.
If no money is a saved from subsidy removal then, why said we spend so much on subsidy, we remove it and still borrow to finance palliatives. We expect the government to finance palliatives with part of the money saved from subsidies. That is the agreement. Abi this govt fit make person craze o.

Anyway, then say na person wey dey bottom below be the last to know wetin dey happen for the top.

Na stupidity they make person do the same thing and expect a different outcome.

We had refineries and they run it aground, we had Nigerian airways and they ran it aground, Nepa nko they ran it aground etc essentially because staff and management including their families and friends will divert the facilities and not pay. So why would people that lack understanding keep asking us to go down this rabbit hole.

Every year they allocate money for turnaround maintenance and all this fraudulent Nigerians and their foreign economic saboteurs will keep running with the money.

Why are they not buying petrol from refineries where the country has crude and petrol is cheaper because they are bent on economic sabotage. The same companies that are buying for NNPC under the subsidy regime continue to do so today and hence so far nothing has changed. That and the fact that the money involved is huge.

I think we need to assist Dangote to come onstream and make sure that Nigeria’s shares can be subject to buy back by Dangote in due course. Bill gates na slavery and re colonisation. Na Greek gift.

The saboteurs are fighting very hard and recommending fraudulent options that will collapse Nigeria. Unfortunately the Europeans are vultures and mean no well for Africa. Give them some crumbs so they don’t kill our leaders who mean well for the people but always choose your partners wisely.

Everyone has what they can bring to the table so the the world can live well but some are so greedy that they want it all for themselves.

You have said it all my brother, we must grow in knowledge and expand our resolve, imagine even Niger (citizenry) at some point will be considered wiser more proactive than Nigeria (citizenry).

We must drive our own trajectory and rewrite the narratives. The office of the citizen is a real thing, but unfortunately the citizens are ignorant of this.

No where in the world is governance by the citizens on every issue and hence why we have voting by representation. We all wish we can be the fly on the wall and privy to every conversation but it’s better when the individual concentrate on succeeding and being the best version of themselves and let the government do governance.

It is not a village meeting.

The government will take decisions as it sees fit.

A lot would not keep on top of what is going on but keep complaining needlessly.

They need to have a reason and excuse why they are not keeping on top of their life and taking care of business.

We all need to put our energy to what we can control oh. He hard already you can’t afford to drop the ball. We shall all succeed inspite of what is happening with governance.
