That's why Bakare aggression is a personal battle of bitterness and regret

There is no standing rule that says, he must obey clerics



So why is complaining about bakare even when he wouldnt listen to the clerics that advised him peacefully ?

I am not fighting him at all! I am fighting his decision not to use this opportunity to jump on the people's boat to fight corruption that has put our country in penury for so long. I am fighting his decision to think so little of the resolve of the masses and not use it to his advantage to tackle the systemic corruption that continues to destroy the future of unborn Nigerians. I am fighting his decision not to have taken the high road considering his humble beginnings.

Dude, moving govt is almoslt like moving tectonic plates, especially in a country as complex as ours. EFCC has already been ordered to investigate the fuel subsidy fraudsters.

This is the typical response of a parasite. You want the best things in life without a drop of sweat, you are happy for mega corruption to continue, so long as your N65 wages for slavery is maintained. Even when you want to buy a car, you accept the pain, deprive yourself, save up and finally buy it.
Your type is not needed in a Nigeria thats in a hurry to develop.

Please don't forget a lot of people transcending various regions voted for GEJ because they actually believed in him and put their hopes in him. This is not about ethnicity at all!

gej should have ordered the arrest of these cabals. It's obvious the evidence against them is overwhelming. I mean nigerians will gladly back him all the way now that the nigerian man understands the role of the cabals.

It means the subsidy is still there. If the IMF is so bent on Nigeria removing the subsidy, then when will the country implement that? I hope the President will not be announcing any fuel hikes again anytime soon.

So we can not even trust the NASS any longer. They told GEJ to revert to N65 for negotiation to contnue and GEJ disobeyed? What is the response of NASS to this? And where is the rule of law?.

Next time, it would not be as organised and their might not be any organised labour to dialogue with.

What jobs do you think your LG chairman and state governor should be doing? Watching TV? There is no reason why the 36 states should be dependent on the FG in a federal system.
This is why I called you a parasite earlier, you are happy with the status quo of dependency.

Well we thank mr president for reversing to 97 naira but the fact still remain he should go back to 65 naira.[/color][b][/b][color=#006600]

GEJ is a criminal and should be treated as one because he stop budget implementation of fuel subsidy of 2011 that should end by march 2012 in Jan 2012. Jona where you wan put our remaining cash?

Re: President Jonathan Approves N97/Litre As The New Pump Price For Petrol by pharmow: 9:14am On Jan 16, 2012
I weep for the future of this country, GEJ has betrayed almost everyone that voted for him, what is he turning into, an Abacha. This man doesn't know that power belongs to the people and he is playing with fire. I know NLC/TUC will be under immerse pressure, and we nigerians should continue voicing our non-compliant with any price more than N65/liter. In the worst scenario, I will like to say instead of accepting N97/liter it is better we pay N141/liter because the prices of goods and services that have gone up will never go down and the FG will still have excuses for not implementing the development of basic infrastructures they promised. Now I hate GEJ more angry angry angry angryangry

Please, if you can't protest,  don't discourage others from protesting. If the soldiers dare kill, hell will be let loose. Govt belongs to the people, not the leaders.

You are absolutely right! What people don't realize is that the chopping on the state and local government level is significant. But at the moment GEJ is taking the brunt because people view him as a representative of the people so to speak.

Beaf:

Imagine carrying out a "revolution" over the cost of fuel when there are far more weighty issues concerning our national structure? shocked
It was always going to hit the rocks at some point, and its hit the rocks very badly indeed.

Any movement that is not backed by an enduring philosophy is bound to fail. What is the philosophy of #Occupy? Is it N65 per litre fuel?
Is that what is hoped will develop the country and cater for generations yet unborn?
Bloody laughable!

Nigeria cannot be directed by those who have only just gleefully welcomed the presence of their first couple of pubic hairs. You do not have all power and understanding, cos you have twitter and facebook accounts. You've got to have a grounding in how the World meshes together first; in fact, all that #Occupy has achieved with their infuriating ignorance/dishonesty is moving the nation to the brink of fullscale ethnic warfare.
Re: President Jonathan Approves N97/Litre As The New Pump Price For Petrol by Nobody: 9:18am On Jan 16, 2012
If you are anywhere near Ojota, it's time to go home. Pass the message across to as many people you can reach. Soldiers are not sent to threaten people, they are sent to kill. and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it.

Next election, if someone  with history of incompetence in government tells you he was once without shirt, of course you should know what to do.
Re: President Jonathan Approves N97/Litre As The New Pump Price For Petrol by M16: 9:19am On Jan 16, 2012
There has been a lot of emotion,anger,frustration and bitterness from both the pro-deregulation and anti-deregulation opponents. I am really happy to see Nigerians standing up to talk and act about issues that affect them. A big change from the past, where we just accepted things as the Nigerian way. It has brought up issues that go beyond removal of fuel subsidy which i believe are necessary and fundamental, if this nation is going to develop

To the issue of of removal of PMS subsidy i believe we should look at he matter dis-passionately and analytically.
1) Is fuel subsidy economically sustainable?
2) What is the best way to go about removing the subsidy?
3) What should be in place before its removed and what do we expect after it's been removed?
4) How do we hold Government accountable to its promises?(my brother who just came back from overseas, says he has not seen a country where the Government swindles it's people like Nigerian Government)
5) Is  the current structure of Government economically viable? where we spend 75% on recurrent expenditure and we have fat cat members of national assembly who are paid hardship allowance, while Nigerians walk to dilapidated schools without shoes

They challenge i pose is how do we proffer solutions and how do we ensure that things improve?bear in mind this so called cabal would not exist if
1) there is a sincere government (2) there are laws that are being enforced.

They so called cabal so an opportunity and just  took advantage of this.  here is a link to website of a group of  Nigerians who came together since the strike started and have been thinking of an alternative solution to this quagmire.feel free to comment and add your thoughts.website.-http://www.reflectnigeria.com and  http://reflectnigeria.com/data/documents/reflectNIGERIA12012012.pdf


Problems and situations require solutions and Nigeria is blessed with people who i know are capable of proffering solutions to any situation we find ourselves in
