[quote author=Ejiné link=topic=837167.msg9883734#msg9883734 date=1325552646]Having said this, no matter how 'bad' things may be in the South, I can authoritatively tell you that the South-East and South-South will never be joining in on any protests. So down here, the South-Westerners are on their own. Sadly so. It would be fun to watch the protest in Lagos, though.

Lights. . . Camera. . . Popcorns. [/quote]SMH well what did I expect before.

SS ppl don't listen to this goons and protest for ur rights.

So, you want my people to go out and be gunned down by the trigger happy Nigerian security abi?
Thunder go fire your gworo/amala mouth dia. lol  

Umu Igbo, stay HOME.
We have a different type of problem in Nigeria.

I don talk my own.

"Your people" are my people. "My people" are "your people".

"Your people" are business men and travellers, and also according to nairaland, that are the highest population in each state apart from the indigene. If so then we can say your people would be the most hit can't we.

If I see "your people" suffering on the streets, do you think the alj harem of nairaland would be so bigoted/ callous to let them be ?

In my life, lots of "your people" have helped me in various occassion thus I view myself as one of "ur people".

Onlytruth, you don't understand how angry I am right now on this subsidy thing.

I cannot buy fuel to my generator because it is 141 naira/liter. i use 10 -12 liters very night to sleep and now it has increased to 1500 naira .

Onlytruth:
[size=18pt]Any Igbo man that shows up at any of these so called "occupy" rallies is on his own.[/size]
We have more important issues facing us in Nigeria.
Let the "owners of Nigeria" go and shed their own blood.

Onye obula norokwa n'ulo ya o! 

Ubochi nta, anyi ga achu na owerre nchi! 

as expected from eze ndigbo. Typical bigot

Any Igbo, Yoruba, Hausawa, Ijaw, kanuri, Idoma, Igala, nupe, edo, Ibibio, efik/annag, fulani, tiv that does not show up for this riot should remember this

That is he not only doing it to save himself from future hunger and CRIME, but also for his/her children from the impending all out riot.

I do not speak as a yoruba or northern or igbo but as a Nigeria that has the [size=18pt]Nigerians at heart[/size].

emiye:
Ofcourse Naira,
and since Naira is stronger than the currencies of those countries the fuel is smuggled to, dont you think it still creates lots of room for the smuggling to thrive ?

so it is naira.

fuel smuggled to benin republic on who's accord ? The government or private investors ?

at what point is the subsidy paid, is it when it has already been signed at the port that the refined fuel has arrived or when it is till on sea ?

if when it has arrived, then who's fault is the smuggling, private investor or the NNPC for not keeping track record of the oil brought into the country.

if on shore, then there is NO SUBSIDY PAID TO THE INVESTOR.

emiye, you have not answered me. Is ghana using Naira or cedes ?

because I would not lie to you, it is VERY annoying the way people use other countires with higher value in currency and convert it to naira or dollars then use it as[b] A COMPARISON[/b] to Nigeria fuel price.

1. Each country have different minimum wage

2. each country have different standard of living

3. each country have different exchange rate and as such there is NO COMPARISON

emiye:
hmmm OK, but something is puzzling, how come ghana now sell petrol @ 187/litre?

why have they not imported from the same legitimate place @141/litre?

is ghana using naira or cedes ?

Bliss4Lyfe:
May be this will get alot of the junk or death trap people ride around in off the streets and reduce the number of road accident casualty from cheap fuel. Everyone  in Nigeria is driving becos it is affordable.

Besides in the UK we have congestion charging, to reduce the number of motorist and pollution. Nigeria motorist nad polllution need reduction too. GEJ is simply too good.

do you know what conjestion charge is ? and how it works ?

where is conjested apart from lagos that conjestion charge would apply ?

YES OUR NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT WOULD USE THAT MONEY TO GOOD USE BY BUILDING ROADS, SCHOOLS ,ETC

LOL

Didn't somebody just mentioned Ghana? http://allafrica.com/stories/201112300791.html

It has happened in Indonesia before in 1999.

Also was planned for Libya : [url]http://www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/index.php/news/24576-%E2%80%98removal-of-fuel-subsidy-could-trigger-libya-like-revolt%E2%80%99.html[/url]

There is nothing I can say but if we think subsidy is not a problem to Nigerian economy then we need to think again.

just as i predicted. lol

so Ghana is not building her refinary ?

or is Ghana currency not stronger than Nigerian's now and the standard of living better now ?

Indonisa economy is not dependent on oil

Libya is controlled by IMF aka America by using a puppet government. This would never have happened with Gaddaff

liyba does not have fuel subsidy, don't be decieved. Libya has refinaries so what would they use a subsidy for ?

LOL well since u are comparing gahan indonisa to nigeria , i don't really know what to say

Nigeria prices are based on price of petrol

ghana and indonisa are different. Infact ghana just discovered theirs

indonisa economy is based on palm oil and cocoa.

libya does NOT HAVE SUBSIDY at the first place

jp philips:
and we take this? subsidy or no subsidy is a lose lose situation for us, jonathan do what oil and gas experts told you
God has given us a pump price of less than 25naira per litre, we dont need your subsidy it destroys the economy.
Npdc after 23years should guarantee our local production capacity which will bring cheap crude to the market.
subsidy is a monster to cover up your ineptitude, now that it is obvious you can no longer maintain the subsidy regime coupled with the fact you swore to your deities that you wont fight corruption.
take your subsidy give us a local production capacity. all the oil companies produce crude at less than 12usd/barell,
investors will refine it and guarantee a pump price of less than 30naira.
subsidy is the biggest scam in Nigeria's oil and gas history, local production capacity is the way to go.

you understand

aramco is 5 dollars a barrel ,,.,.,.,.,, 1 barrel = 159 liters

That's not funny! I know who you are indirectly referring to here - that's OAndo. But, he can't sell more than 200 Naira yet the subsidy is no longer for him and his cohort to share any more because the economy will be a red light on that. You are blowing this issue out of proportion. I am not an economist but I know there can be something good coming out of this plan if well done.

T[b]his is not a Nigerian case,dude. It's not peculiar to Nigeria only - just to correct you.[/b]

please tell me what other country. i beg you and I would show you it is only nigeria

Bliss4Lyfe:
I can't wait for 2015, so we will beg him to finish up his constitutional allocation of a second term. I predict 100% southeast vote. We love u GEJ.

you can say that again love

all4naija:
That is coming from the distributors and there is not so much difference because it can not exceed the 145 naira in a nutshell. That doesn't change anything. You just want to exert that to make a fool of the subsidy removal.

LOL I am sorry do you even understand how the "theives" make their money or I am just discussing with a clueless brother.

A subsidy thief in Nigeria is a distributor and a supplier and an exporter and importer and a reservoir owner.

He is a distributor because he owns fuel stations, and shares in some privately own stations

He is a supplier because he supply's NNPC the needed fuel they need every week since they cannot store

He is an exporter since he gets the crude oil and export it to be refined in other countries

He is an importer since he imports the refined crude oil which the major sum of the subsidy is paid for at the ports.

He is a reservoir owner since he stores for NNPC and gives it to them at a lower amount since petrol evaporates.

well what do i expect for Nigerians they never understand what there government is doing but sheeplly follow. Brother allnija, carry on

I day I would benefit for fuel in Nigeria since we have silly nigerians such as urself. Yes i said it, I would manipulate una if I get there as well since una no get brains.

engineerd:
Common, wake up, This is Nigeria! The government would rather you paid more instead of going the way you have highlighted, And think about it, why not?? Nigerians are very docile, so they will continue to butt phuck Nigerians as long as they can.

you are very right

a beg make we buy bread tomorrow for 800 naira-1000 naira

and cola for 150-200 naira for 50 ml bottle

blacksta:
Go on gej I believe in you.

Please enjoy d fresh air. Stop phocking complaining

LOL nairaland funny o

all4naija:
That will always happen. The distributors will always have that initial increase in profit as long as they have reserves from earlier purchases when it's relatively subsidized.

so what of the deregulation process ? no word or you just read the first bit

all4naija:
Wake up from your slumber and stop complicating issues. Learn to be a solution than being a problem.

I think you and ur silly government should wake up for there slumber after 51 years

The solution has always been clear from day 1

1. reduce the cost of goverance which is 70 % of Nigerian's income

2. use the savings to build refinaries to provide 80 % of the country's oil need

3. The remove subsidy and price of Refinary fuel would be less than 65 naira a liter instead of increasing to 142 naira a liter.

uche92:
i never fully believed this man was slow until today, any rational thinking man knows that you cannot totally deregulate commodities such as oil in a bad and non free market economy. the effects of this decision will be mostrous, the small cabal who previously collected the subsidy money will form a cartel and fix prices by themselves. THERE IS NO REAL COMPETITON IN NIGERIA. all fuel distributors probably know each other. wow the world better end on 2012 or nigeria will.this is probably an IMF policy to destroy our economy so that we either help in bailing europe out, have oil prices fall or totally destroy our economy so that everyone is worse off. okonjo-iweala, sanusi, gej == illiterates

LOL btw, the oil theives would have made 300% profit on oil today because of the stored oil was bought at 20 naira and meant to be sold at 65 naira but now even much more profit if they sell it at 146 naira

you see, the difference from 65 naira to 145 naira was what the government was paying for according to them but now if I have already bought it at 65 naira and the subsidy already paid to me. I still reserve the right to sell it at 165 naira

thus I have made 500 % profit

Now that the market is deregulated, the cabals can make money in 2 ways

1. form a coopration- aka onado, conoil, etc can come together and regulate their prices as they wish to sort there need

2. selling fuel at different prices to NNPC as they wish. - each il company can sell it at different rate to nnpc thus the price of oil would be varing from week to week unless the governemnt is still prying for this subsidy they said they would remove to keep the price constant

all4naija:
Nigeria can't do without exporting crude oil because it is largely depended on for foreign exchanges. Jeez!

please shut it and stop spreading falsehood here

yes Nigeria can do without exporting crude oil but we chose to export it. Reason being we need some money in return for our resources so we can buy other commodities

samstradam:
I hate this government with a passion, but i think despise nigerians even more! A people who God has given so much but are so intrinsically petty, that they seem unable to ever make the right decision no matter how many chances they are given, due to the [size=20pt]same jealousies of the 60s[/size]. We never learn, we have no standards and thus our merry-go-round continues. And while slumbering another beacon of the black race, Brazil, overtakes UK as the 6th largest economy in the world. should a Brazil be more united than us?

You truthly understand why likes of Obiagu, pointb, odeiro, afam4eve, onlytruth, biyala and co are doing what they are doing

LOL a beg make we enjoy fresh air, let me just let u know. There is nothing like fuel subsidy at the first place, all we are doing is trying to standarise our price to IMF standaries aka USA

but it is all good. make we suffer am together

bros abeg u too enjoy it

rhymz:
You are such a flippant lier and a pretender. I have asked you several times to provide us with documented evidence of a BokoHaram bomb attack on a mosque yet you keep making untrue assertions about mosques being attacked.
Imagine how condescending you sounded talking about the church bombing as just one attack compared to your fictituos multiple mosque attacks.
You do not deserve anybody's time cos you agrue on borrowed points that you barely understand, you would rather justify the 1960s pogrom than admit it was characteristic terror streak that is common with every northerner.
Yes Igbos are everywhere in Nigeria but I doubt if they make up the majority of the population of these states that should make them a constant victim feature in almost every attack and unrest in Nigeria and the north in particular. The other time it was "randomly" a market full of Igbo traders and the bomb had to be thrown into an Igbo man's shop and once again it was the Igbos that counted the highest loss. During the NYSC election manhaunt by those almajiri thesame Igbo dominated the list of their victims, yet no Igbo has ever launched an unprovoked attack on any tribe or northerners in particular. Abi you no sabi say after the Igbos the most itierant tribe is the Hausa/fulanis? Or you think others can't choose to victimize them? Yet they are allowed to enjoy the freedom in the southern region they don't allow others enjoy in their own region. This goes beyond BokoHaram, your people have this recurrent murderous characteristics whether in a group or as individual especially when one is at their mercy. So go preach all that your pretentious mumbo-jumbo to people who do not know what you are all about. Like Onlytruth has said, you should be treated like a disease, a tumour that should be cut off. Abeg go siddon make better ppl contribute you and your two-sided, flipping personalities are gross and annoying. I have always asked if you suffer from split personality dis-oreder cos you are full of discordant tunes and stupifying inconsistent streak that is worrying.

bros if u are ignorant just say you are ignorant instead of repeating the bull,.,sh,.,it onlytruth and co have been saying

I told you of boko haram attacking muslims in the north and it not NOT A LIE. you can confirm it from ur friends and relatives in the north, particularly miaduguri

here is one of recent documented

[quote author=okada_man link=topic=836786.msg9877553#msg9877553 date=1325468925]Well, at least nobody fit get mind to ban Okada again. Y'all need us now.

Next week, well roll out our new business: bicycle transport.

Happy 2012. God Bless GEJ[/quote]yes oooo okada man

maybe when you buy fuel tomorrow and notice you have to increase 30 trip to 60 naira thus lack of costomers you would still be in buiness

Okada would reduce drastically and privatly owned would increase thus more traffic for you and your buiness as well

also after the okada buiness shebe u go go house go eat. When you here that cup of garri for 20 naira is not 80 naira then you would rejoice more

least i remind you that you also have to pay your house rent whenic would increase from lets say 50 thousand a year (as okada rider) to 100 thousand a year, then u might be forced to live under the brigbe to contiune your okada buiness.

yes ooo God bless GEJ

That is a funny joke!  

you better wake up!!

what joke

USA pays, Nigeria and any other country must pay a similar amount

our world is based around the usa economy.

in zimbzbwe if 1 DOLLAR is 8000 zim dollars, then 8000 zim dollars for a liter of fuel SHOULD BE THE PRICE

the country and nairaland are JOKES and as such people need to start acting like jokers.

nakedall:
1 US gallon = 3.78541178 liters

NJ price:
3.7 = $3.15
1 lit = $.8514 = 136 naira

But we have the crude oil ooo with dirty cheap labor to process it! 51 years!!!

gbamm but why

a beg remove the subsidy and let fuel rise to 200 naira a litre, we need it for the FG to build more schools, roads etc

purplekayc:
this country is really sick can you imagine every one struggling to-get something that should all most be freely available?

LOL

well since the USA pays about a dollar to a liter, then Nigeria too must pay the same which happens to be about 145-160 naira

philip0906:
u r high on cheap crack

was he not the ideeiot supporting the removal of fuel now. Well you have it now.

bunch of ideeiot

Why must u insult people?Useless animal

Yes I must insult bigots like u. because you want the so called oil benefit theives to be arrested, ideeiot like you supported the removal of fuel subsidy.

bunch of ideeiot

Obiagu1:
Now is time for everyone to come out and fight against corruption in the government, in the senate, everywhere in Nigeria and not fight over things that are necessary like subsidy removal and forget things that are more important like corruption!

that is a lie Obiagu stop deceiving urself. why are we so gullible in Nigerian. hahen na so we dull reach

which kind country be this self

odiaero:
Woo, even 8k fuel could not fill my tank, na wao, got low fuel when i was about going to V.I from ikeja, branch into oando to get my fuel tank fill up around 8pm today, but on getting there, they stopped selling for 65 naira, for almost two hours they refused to sell, only for the engineer to come out and adjust all meters to 141 naira per liter, 4 8k, my fuel thank no still full, let there by after 11pm. How much did u buy today and where?

shut the f up and get use to it

2mch:
Lol @ the Biafra dream. To all the Igbo's saying Yorubaland will be thrown into internal war in the event of a break up. I guess this is a preview. And these two villages are in Yorubaland. I love when the Igbo tribalistic posters indirectly eat their words and scram very fast when all defence has failed. funny people.

it has nothing to do with biafra or igbo

right now nurtw, boko haram, egebsu etc killing and bombing ourselves like animals

it is the sad state of nigeria

Stop being mischievous Alj harem, Igbos are not 70- 90% of Lagos , they are , from the last census data, about 42 - 44% .
But they control far larger portion of the economy than their population.

exactly, we are saying the same thing

44 % -70% what is the difference

moreover you control 90% of the economy, so what gives
