He is bitter that he was not picked for VP
Obi said he would remove subsidy on day one

Atiku said he would remove it within his first hundred days
They campaigned on that Issue
Nigerians knew Tinubu would do it and still voted him.
The consequences are painful but no one has told us a credible alternative
The botomline is even if there was no will to remove it there was no choice because Nigeria has reached the pont of borrowing from IMF and IMF simply will not lend money for subsidy. So blaming Tinubu or any other president is futile it is either the subsidy goes or the government shuts down and stops paying salaries and defaults on loan repayments.
When nearly 100% of revenues is going on debt servicing how does government continue that?
When did you send him sit down and he told you how he is bitter he wasn't picked for VP?
For your info, if it's all about that, someone like him will easily get a good post or at least contracts from Tinubu before you can get a mudu of corn from same Tinubu.
A lot of you just project yourself on others

I agree with Babachir Lawal on this. It was so untimed. The hard truth is the pronouncement of subsidy removal was the beginning of PBAT administration struggle and it has taken the country to what she is experiencing today

Babachir Lawal the grass cutter. Be thankful to God that you are a Nigerian. If you were a Chinese, you would have been executed for #100m grass you said you cut.

I know you're pained but you can't do anything about it than occasionally interview and expression of your frustration bcoz you thought you would be Tinubu VP.

The current hardship is not as the results of fuel selling at 600


We bought fuel at 600 since June 2023 and a bag of rice was selling at 37'000


Today a bag of rice is selling for 80k and fuel is going for 600/ltr

The more you guys keep calling Yorubas ronu people the more you move far from collaboration with them. It's your choice to be humble as you catch cruise with them.
As a student of law, working together irrespective of tribe or party is the solution!

Here comes the Man who stole government fund, hence his suspension by Buhari. Babachir has no moral right to criticize any govt because he was part of those that wreck Nigerian economy.
But it's debatable the one that's more corrupt between Babachir and Tinubu

But same govt claimed allocation to govs has increased by 60% by virtue of subsidy removal so what exactly are you on about
I am not here to speak for government
Even without subsidy removal I would expect allocation to in tease by more than that based on exchange rate
So the variables that affect allocation would include subsidy,exchange rate and oil revenue which government also claims has increased based on theft reduction.
All this back and forth nitpicking is unproductive. We can do this this Christmas if we are both jobless but I am not.

It’s called incompetence
Incompetence for money that was never budgeted for in 2023 appropriation Act? Though,the decision was hasty but the PMB never budgeted for subsidy in 2023,rather he was accumulating subsidy debt for PBAT.

You're not here to speak for govt but you're defending govt actions. Maybe you should leave that to those paid to do it and face your job.
The FG said allocation increased due to subsidy removal.
It already negates your claim. So either you know more than govt or you're just making baseless claims

That is why we should not put ourselves in a position where we have to borrow from them
You sell your soul in the process
Nigeria has not said anything significant about the Ukraine war or Gaza and was even threatening Niger with military action
The other day an announcement was made that British lawyers will practice in Nigeria
See how Chinese are flooding our country

So when you borrow anyhow you lose sovereignty
When last did Nigeria borrow from IMF? Has Tinubu borrowed from them?
Tinubu was pandering to the West in his policies
It had nothing to do with loans
Why didn't Buhari remove subsidy or declare war on B.Faso? Why did he ban twitter? He even borrowed from IMF!!

I am expressing my opinion if the government does something I agree or disagree with I will express my opinion. I am not an enemy of the government. I already told you I cannot speak for the government. It is reasonable to expect some increase in allocation as a result of subsidy removal but like I said there are other variables Naira has devalued by more than 100% so that is significant as well as increase in oil output

Tinubu the president who removed petroleum subsidy on his first day as present without appointing a petroleum minister, and floated the Naira against the Dollar without appominting a Central Bank governor. Catastrophy followed as expected.

The decision was hasty without a bailout plan for the ripple effects. But the floating of the dollar is the major reason for the collapsed economy.
But Nigerians generally and the political class in particular are heartless and exploitative. Why are allocated funds converted to dollars by the politicians and why are we running a dollar based economy? Is the Central Bank Governor and his Management team competent to manage the mess created by the removal of fuel subsidy and the floating of the dollar? Time shall tell.

The subsidy removal has brought more revenue to govt. This means subsidy payments was not based on borrowing as you claimed.
