To those saying, build refineries before removing the subsidy: if we don't have enough money to pay for the subsidy alone without borrowing, where will the money to continue paying the subsidy while also building new enough refineries to support 150m people without foreign/private investment come from?

wirinet:
There is a fundamental problem with this subsidy debate, no private company would build any refinery as long as the govenment insists on selling crude at international price. Even if all the major products of PMS, diesel and kerosine is sold at N140, it will barely cover the cost of the crude, not to talk of the cost of refinery, land and administrative costs. People who collected licenses did so to enable them to import. believe me, no new private refinery would be build subsidy or no subsidy, so will always be at the mercy of international prices, leading to further pressures on the naira and inflation on its own. government should either build and maintain refineries or ensure a policy where private refineries buy crude at subsidized prices.

Which one be Fashola for this topic? Abeg. Keep mute.

She is applying to sentiments, let us have tangible things that we can hold on to, she is brilliant but what she is preaching is not acceptable to us.
@dmain
Sanusi just called OBJ, Yar Adua and GEJ incompetent, he does not have to say it literally jare. Fashola is building infrastructure and most of those pot holes have been filled, at least on the main roads.

@dmain

Forget that story, Lagos politics is not easy, Fashola is building infrastructure and maintaining them, let the president act presidential. GEJ is not our best president because we can talk freely, that is our human right, everybody negotiates, it is the term of negotiation that differs.

dmainboss:
Sanusi did not say the government is incompetent. Dont try to deduce things from his speech. He is referring to how things cant work because of our political and partisan challenges translating into failures in government business. It is simple to understand unless you are wearing a bias tinted glasses

dmainboss:
Nigerian government can not build and maintain refineries because of the nature of Nigeria. The political differences in Nigeria makes a lot of things in government very difficult. You wouldnt know until you work there.

dmainboss:
He is very much on point. Take away your bias glasses

dmainboss:
Labour is a daft body who only know how to go on strike!

"The difference between TUC and NLC is that we are partners in the struggle" TUC president. Can you now see who our labour leaders are? Shame!

So - it is apparent that Labour has no valid input to the debate?
