the marketers can never survive without subsidy, that's what has been keeping them in business for so long which also makes them credit worthy to banks, now that subsidy is gone, most of them will wind up soon. Only the major marketers can survive post subsidy regime.

Most Nigerians don't understand this. The only solution to the fuel crisis, is working refineries period.

modath:
Booted from office like how? Through a coup d'etat? Oh ok, I get it now, there was no need to have an election, we should just have a rotation every 8yrs? Competence & results don't matter, we do it sentimental and bias style!!

So 2011 total support was a waste? 13%(Bayelsa and Delta can't even get salary) and NDDC/Niger Delta ministry are for what?

Leave that story of marginalisation, Asari situating his school in Benin Rep and Tompolo not building one vocational centre or primary health care facility in his community despite the billions make nonsense of that argument...

All this drama isn't for the common man's good, it is driven by greed, selfish interest, lack of foresight & irrational hate...

BTW, i've said my piece, no need flogging a dead horse, Bye!



Cc 989900 989900B, kindly help Nna here with the list of oil bloc owners so he can see that the elites from both North and South are both "united" in economic molestation but will set people against one another for political expediency.

Sweetguy25:
How can a country that just lost over two million people in a civil war be good? Did the people in the eastern region feel that Nigeria was good?

Also, Nigerians weren't travelling to Vietnam, Cambodia and UAE because they were as undeveloped as Nigeria.
I mentioned Libya to buttress my point that dictatorships are not a good thing.

berrystunn:
Yes bro, I agree with you, but in one year we should see where the govt is driving to,
As it stands now no direction.

The way judiciary works... That's where fantastically corrupt come from.

The best way to fight corruption is to rebuild our institutions and change our constitution.

Because our institutions allows corruption to run in every sector.
Every one wants to use his or her position to make money. There is still corruption in the govt to the fullest.

But I think buhari is fighting thief's not corruption.
Fighting opposition. With EFCC.

Darkness fighting darkness

From my own understanding no one have been jailed
They give some part of the money and go home,


government is waiting on 29th to tell us how much they recovered.

Non in jail

We will see and hear more. from Same old people

sammhi:
[s]stop being very dumb
No same mind expect PmB to turn Nigeria into U.S or Singapore even in 10 years..but there are defined landmarks which indicate progress
GDP
Growth rate
inflation
unemployment rate
Bank interest rate
FDI
etc
I guess when you take these indices , you will find we have nosedived
we had expected him to maintain the status quo at worst or an improvement..
Nosedived indices clearly shows he is off track
That is what most of us are complaining about..but in your little mind anyone that complain is either IPOB or PDP...
so much for shallow,parochial and low mentality [/s]

obailala:
At least Dangote has created over 100,000 jobs. So I think I can give him a waiver from this knock.

berrystunn:
Did fuel and dollars, fly up and down??
Buhari government foreign companies pull out and non is wiling to invest in Nigeria with his type of policy..

With the Monitoring policy no investors will invest in Nigeria.

With his economy team, hardship is just starting.
Watch and see.

obailala:
This is what you call a real philanthropist, not the ones who build on modern toilet latrine, splash it all over the news and then return in 2 years to contest for government positions. A fact about life is that, there is enough food in the world for nobody to go hungry, but greed is the only reason why we still have hungry people in society because a few greedy ones corner the food meant for many. Imagine all other billionaires act like this man, we would be crying out to the govt any more.

OBAGADAFFI:
[s]You people wont stop giving Nigerian this lame excuse about Shagari and Jonathan.[/s]

[s]Isn't it a coincidence that the same Buhari who took over from Shagari and Jonathan, always left the economy in ruins.[/s]

Babacele:
you are absolutely right...
my dad did some courses at Holborn college ,England without leaving naija through correspondence and exchanged N12 for £12 postal charges inclusive which means naira was stronger than the pounds sterling. Even under Shagari, though bad but Buhari curtailed d mess until the coming of Ibb , it was hell let loose.....hence we became alarmed when the clueless 1 allowed him hijacked his administration n was fronting the puppet for a 2nd term to finish the country or how do I explain d assassination of Azazi n the coming in of Gusau, Dasuki n other Ibb boys?.......or how do i explain d sudden love between Dokpesi ,another ibb boy, whom the GEJ administration had earlier accused of being complicit in the Oct 1st bombing?...or the assassination attempt on PMB by this clique 24 hours after GEJ replied PMB's letter upbraiding him in 2014 ?...but God pass. Your points are so true, very true.

Maghan37:
I can see stupidity extends to all parts of Africa 4 a country who exchange the continents worst dictator for another dictator citizens to speak of issues they knw nothin about. No wonder they keep going backwards even in their own subregion they cannot talk. That is why they will always produce another Idi amin.

berrystunn:
Yes best results any govt could get with sanction.

Did we face this type of hardship??

berrystunn:
Go and sleep, up till now you don't know anything
The hardship we are facing is lack of economy policy

His economy team is zero.

Abacha was on sanction for years yet fuel price and dollars did not change.
With good economy team.

Looting started since 1960..

Corruption is even on the high side in this govt.
Your buhari promise to declare asset publicly with his team if elected.

Using permanent sec to approve money for over 3month, who did he account to?!
He promise to cut cost, yet flying out of the country cost 1m dollars.

Don't worry very soon you will join forces to call on buhari to step down.

Sweetguy25:
There was absolutely nothing to be proud of. Why didn't those years or periods of "pride" last? They were built on a faulty foundation. The governments that ruled were illegitimate, they stole power and threw the country into a war that left millions dead. Were the people in the eastern region proud that they lost millions of lives?
An illegitimate government is nothing to be proud of, no matter the benefits they bring. Take a look at libya.

Sweetguy25:
70s and 80s you say? When military dictators had already killled the country. There was nothing to be proud of.

Adamsdelrio:
When will this gain start reflecting in the lives of common Nigerians? The situation of the country is becoming unbearable.

CHANNELStv2020:
IF BUHARI IS SO FOOLISH HE SHOULD TAKE MILITARY ACTION, THERE IS 85PERCENT TENDENCY THIS WILL GENERATE CIVIL WAR (WITH THE WAY IPOB SUPPORTS NIGER DELTA)

SycophanticGoat:
Between Shagari's administration and Buhari's regime, which recorded higher of the following:

1. Unemployment rate
2. Lower power supply
3. Business collapse/closures
4. Lower infrastructes/infrastructural development
5. Abuse or misuse of power
6. Gagging of media
7. Etc.

When you answer that, you'd be able to wrap your mind around your question.

SycophanticGoat:
Read in between lines, you'd get my point..

Catastrophe1:
ain't nothing to lecture you about. if you can't read the hand writing on the wall. you my friend and others that are waiting for a miracle by this government lacks Wisdom.

SycophanticGoat:
You talked about educational values and the likes of people not graduating without jobs. I think that if you're fare with your analysis, of all you listed that Nigeria had back then, you'd have stated that aside from the naira that failed to drop during 83/84, every other thing you brag about started dropping drastically within that period (83/84), apart from unemployment that rose sharply.

Yet Nigerians still decided to put their faith in someone that crippled their economy within 2 years, hoping that he will revive it this time, just because he screamed "I will fight corruption".

SycophanticGoat:
God bless SocialMediaMan!

I was so shocked reading your comment but then again, I thought to myself, not everybody were wired to be zombies. Back then when you criticized GEJ and campaigned for Buhari, I still saw a little bit of objectivity in you, but just like the likes of passingshot, ngeneukwenu, mynd, obailala, demdem, dropshot, gbawe, 989900B, etc, I had thought you'd jettison the objectivity and be all out with swords and shield in hand to defend the supposed messiah.

You proved me wrong and I respect you for that. If all Nigerians reasoned like you (wailers and zombies alike), including the dullard president, Nigeria would have changed for the better long ago.

Catastrophe1:
[s]Buhari government is like a sickness to Nigerians if you hide and don't speak, it will kill you. unlike some people that want to die in silence, my people refused to die in silence, speak out fooooool.[/s]

Babacele:
say it again. That money can educate a whole generation of Ugandans .

TPAND:
Buhari's government is no different from past government. Crude oil dependency is the economy determinant
