It is what it is. Since we can't refine in Nigeria, we have to import.

You don't understand. People who occupy various posts in nnpc are colonized in their minds. Hence westerners exploit nigeria to get cheap energy. Crude oil is sent to Europe from Nigeria while Nigeria imports refined oil because European countries want Crude oil so they can refine it themselves so it's cheaper for them.

Dangote Refinery is importing Crude oil instead of refining local Crude oil why? Because the west hv laid claim on Nigerian Crude for themselves.

Anybody who wants to process Nigerian Crude in Nigeria will meet resistance from the west. Possibly the west will want regime change in Nigeria.

Leave the good people of SW out of your tribalistic mouth.

You're avid supporter of the Emilokan.

What's your take on leadership and anomie facing the nation?

For your information, you and others tribalised the struggle to liberate Nigeria from clutches of domestic neocolonialism and ethnic bigotry. You continue to lend support based on ethnic origin. Not on performance and credibility.

Enjoy your acrid support based on ethnic and partisan politics!

They'll soon come and call you IPOB esn, hater of Yorubas and Nigeria!

The SW are enjoying Tinubu's presidency because they're still teaching obi lessons!


I don't know how some of you reason, we can even compare the size of your brain to that of a 2 year old baby.

How can you say that they're still teaching Peter Obi a lesson? Is Nigeria being run because of Peter Obi? Has Nigeria been run because of Peter Obi? Must every happenings in Nigeria based on Peter Obi now?

You people probably needs to visit a psychiatrist.

It's ok na, just learn to put Nigeria in prayers. It's not too hard to do
Oga, prayers cannot solve Nigeria's problem.

Stop applying the right solution on a wrong problem.

Prayers only solve spiritual problems.

Our problems are not spiritual but economic.

You should forget about the tribe. It has nothing to do with what is happening.

For over 5 decades, you have lived with the illusion that fuel is cheap. The illusion is breaking, and we are seeing what other African countries are seeing...that fuel is expensive. Very much so.

Tinubu is trying so hard to maintain the illusion. But as you can see cracks are appearing

It is time we all accepted fuel was never cheap in the first place. Maintaining the illusion has cost us billions of naira and four refineres.
please compare Nigeria with other africa countries that have crude oil like Nigeria. Stop doing blind comparison.

We have a large population that is too large to benefit from the crude revenue we earn

Corruption and mismanagement make it even worse

Subsidies cost you four refineries? You must be living in lala land.
Corruption cost you those refineries, not subsidies.

And understand this: if you like remove every subsidy or government expense in Nigeria - Corruption will still destroy everything.

Well, sell at a loss, lose a lot.of stuff .

Find out how the Soviets grand experience in subsides for everything went. Its very illuminating.

And we have a very large population.

That's why we need to diversify our economy. The oil is large in revenue but per capita, it cannot sustain us or pay for all our needs.

Corruption makes things worse.

That is why diversification diversification and industrialisation

So you're advocating for more increase in pump price so that prices of food items could go up again? What has govt done with the trillions gotten from the subsidy that's already removed? For your information, I work for the federal government, till today, I have not received my January salary just like others. Wage award that was promised to be paid from September last year has only been paid twice, with some just once. Again I ask, what has government done with the trillions they've been making since subsidy removal?
Re: Gridlock As Fuel Queues Resurface In Lagos by Zeebuy: 10:26am On Feb 06
Everybody should keep standing on tinubu's rotten manhood.
Na una dey suffer am.
A lot of lowlives who voted Tinubu are ashamed and disappointed in his performance, but they try to console themselves with "it'll get hard before it gets better", forgetting that we're in Nigeria where things keep getting worse.

Election choices have consequences. You vote useless leaders, you get useless leadership. You voted a career politician, and you're expecting goodies?

Una Go See Shege!

Or we can pay subsidy to keep fuel at 40 naira and watch our debt shoot up to levels that would destroy our economy totally.
