Pls who's watching it live, what's their line of argument?

Deji Bademosi, program host, asking Emeka Okengwu whether the government share (N478 billion) of purported subsidy removal saving (N1.4 trillion) can realistically achieve all the Government has committed to doing given the litany of past empty promises.


Okengwu essentially touts trust in the Government and a reliance on holding Government to its promises.

Pls who's watching it live, what's their line of argument?

Gbawe is already doing a good job relaying important points.

meeehn Falana dey smoke o! I love ds man, cos him dey yarn with facts and figures.
Anyways,i dey wait for BEAF to come DISPLAY as usual.

Falana is going to woz someone there o, the guy sitting next to him should be careful o.

Deji Bademosi, host, wonder how Governors , minimally, have not even articulated what they will do with their share of so-called savings from subsidy.

according to deziani, solution to headache is cutting off the head.

solution to oil industry corruption is to transfer burden to Nigerians

Let d revolution Begins,I miss Gani Fawehinmi(San,SaM)kudos 2 mr femi falana and Funmi Iyanda.those Cabals must fall.

Deji Bademosi says that State Governors have confessed inability to pay minimum wage without subsidy removal. The obvious relational question being will their share of fuel subsidy removal savings be used to cover minimum wage deficit? Are we then not back to square one?

Emeka Okengwu insisting that taking to the streets serves no useful purpose.

Funmi Iyanda hints that Governors are deficient in their utilisation of allocations to their State. She insists Nigerians are now doing the right thing protesting and that leaders must go back to trying to earn our trust .

How I wish those that are in support of subsidy removal have these facts. Femi Falana analyses is enough to make me go out tommorrow. Infact, I am going out!

Jonathan government is an insensitive government. He wants the people of Nigeria to pay for his incompetences. God will purnish you GEJ

See that guy beside falana his voice is already shaking, he does not want to lose his license, money has turned people to something else. Abeg they should allow Falana to talk jare. Falana dey spit fire.

I would like to make an obvious prediction: "this struggle shall gradually transform to a revolution against corruption. It will no longer be subsidy or the price of oil anymore. It shall soon be a question of why senators, ministers and political leaders in general collect so much as allowances and bonus while a village woman dies of the so called 'maternal mortality' because she cant freaking afford to pay hospital bills in a poorly run health sector!".

This will not stop. more and more questions will arise until the wind hurricane finally blows to reveal the posterior (otherwise called y.ansh_) of the chicken

The energy expert guy is dull and uninspiring, what the hell is govt secret?

Falana insisting that the fraud emanating from the NNPC monumental and damaging. N240 billion is the legal approval for subsidy in 2011. Every kobo spent above that illegal because it is outside legislative appropriation.

So subsidy removal will go to recurrent expenditure again.

This is Iwealas' Voodonomics - subsidy removal to benefit the poor.

After Initial gragra.

when the dust settle then we go know who win

that energy expert is not making sense

Falana na bad guy ooooooooooo, he has facts ooooooo

Yeee see facts and figures where is beaf Oooooo

efismikoko:

Yeee see facts and figures where is beaf Oooooo

I am sure he is still drinking and vomiting in the toilet.

unphilaz:

that energy expert is not making sense

Dont blame him, govt policy itself is senseless

Falana said there will be an agreement witht the people that built our 4 refineries to renovate them to be producing up to 90% of their capacities, if we do have short falls, then we can import from our neighburing african countries like chad and so on,

This guy is making sense!

i think mr Ilori (energy man)is just a petrol station dealer, he has got no clue at all.

That is what should be done first, then we need transparency.

Where do they get this doofus from for jeez sake?

Economist Odilim Enwegbara insisting subsidy must go . His opinion is that "no pain no gain". "GEJ Government means well". Mr. Enwegbara insist that a President who enjoyed a "landslide" win will not turn round to punish Nigerians.

Falana has been spot on with all his arguements. The pertinent question he asked was: So if the price of crude increases in the Int'l market to $200/barrel, what happens?

In effect, we'll have to pay over N200/litre for PMS? Or will the govt not have to subsidie again even after 'deregulating' the downstream sector?  So GEJ & his cohorts should make up their mind either to continue fixing prices or allow market forces do that. . .

If cameroon increases the price of PMS to N300 a litre, we also have to increase ours again to avoid smuggling?

Is that the solution to smuggling?

@Beaf,Leomax and friends

Please respond to the above,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,barawo people

Mr. Bademosi, the host, ask Mr.Onwegbara why should Government implement this policy without refineries working. Mr. Onwegbara states that he expects prices to crash via effects of free market forces. Bademosi reminds him that price of diesel has never "crashed" and that the Nigerian economy is petrol-driven.
