GEJ is right; no pain no gain. I would do same if I were in his shoes.
Reforming and restructuring is nothing new, govts all over the world use them to meet their economic plans.
If we really want to survive as a nation and grow to become an economic powerhouse, then, I'm afraid we have no other way out.
I strongly believe that;
1. Fuel subsidy, for exemple, should be gradually faced out.
2. Govt should introduce some form of road tax for all vehicle in Nigeria; fuel tax; or combination of both.
3. Commercial vehicle should be exempted from paying road tax.
4. The proceeds from these taxes should be invested in our road network.




@Sweet9ja: GEJ is running a very expensive government, with all the special advisers, ministers, their PA's Senators and house of rep members all gulp a huge portion of our money in this country. The govt is so expensive that our foreign reserves are being depleted on a daily basis.
Its a good idea but the point is road tax, fuel tax, fuel subsidy will enrich people rather than make desired positive changes.

GEJ is politely telling Nigerians that he is about to remove the subsidy on Petrol i.e full deregulation of the downstream sector which will make Nigerians to purchase fuel at about N128-140/liter. This increase will affect everything in Nigeria ranging from Commodity Prices, transportation, Cost of living etc and he will probably offer minimum wage in return.

It will be a wise decision if and only if he is able to utilize the proceeds of the subsidy wisely but it appears they will only be enriching themselves with the trillions they spend on this subsidy quarterly. i'm sure nigerians won't mind if this subsidy is removed if we have pipe-borne water, full time electricity, security of lives and property, food security, sound economy, lower interest rates, etc.

Now we expect more money to be laundered abroad by the Petroleum Industry stake holders and their family members.

May God help us redeem all that we have lost in this country.

Q: How did she get employment at Shell w/o the youth service?

A: When she returned to Nigeria, her husband was the Chief of Naval Staff Under Abacha regime so who get the mind to question am? She must have found her way in using the right connection.

The disposal of vehicles on social networks such as dealfish, nairaland, nairalist etc is gradually becoming the most convenient way to trade of these assets in recent times. This is replacing the frequent conventional car dealer interference involving inconvenient and fruitless negotiations as the case may be.
As we progress in our career and businesses, the need to step-up in terms of asset acquisition arises and this brings us to the subject matter vehicle disposal and acquisition. Purchasing a naija-used vehicle can make you save between 350k to as much as 1m (when compared to tokunbo) and between 550k to 2.5m (when compared to brand new vehicles). I know a couple of people who have had their cars stolen in the last few months and I don't expect the thieves to use these vehicles and if we observe closely most naija used vehicles on public fora like this are usually marketed by agents.
Based on experience, agents are in business to make money hence might need to compromise on standards when it comes to security checks, fast moving vehicles such as the toyota camry's and honda accords of this world have taken d center stage of naija-used cars for sale; these cars also top the chart in the list of stolen vehicles in the books/register of our "dead" Nigeria Police Force so its not hard to believe that it could be a dangerous choice to make going for a naija-used car. Note that a tokunbo car could also fall into this category but the risk is higher with a naija-used vehicle.
In the spirit of putting ourselves in each-other's shoes, can we kindly assist fellow nairalanders on a few tips that can help us avoid becoming victims of purchasing a stolen vehicle.
All suggestions will be highly appreciated as you might just be saving a soul.

Cheers
