At this point, peace and normalcy should be the priority...

Any action that shuts down businesses and puts fear in people only hurts the same communities it claims to protect....

It’s good to see clear clarification so people can go about their lives without confusion or panic. Dialogue and lawful engagement will always achieve more than disruption, Sit at home is not the best way, it's not even effective at all, it is now sounding like laziness and not devotion.

It's easier watching, it's also easier to underate the size of the snake from this angle till you're in his position... Omoh you go know say that snake fit swallow human.

Omoh..... This is just getting out of hand joor...

This story just shows the power of understanding people, not just numbers. This manchi no ignore data, he read Nigerian culture correctly. Vision plus local insight beats foreign assumptions every time☝🏽😊.... Huge lesson for entrepreneurs if you truly understand your market, don’t let outsiders scare you off. 👇🏾😡

Nice one, may we still dey look out...

Many Nigerians abroad are suffering quietly....
Going back home isn’t easy either with the economy and insecurity. This situation puts people in an impossible position.

I see some foolish comments here giving credit to the president lol...
First, what this ranking actually means:
It measures contribution to growth, not total economic size or prosperity. Nigeria’s 1.5% contribution reflects population size, rebound effects, and nominal expansion not productivity strength, industrial dominance, or income growth.
And what it does not mean
❌ Nigerians are suddenly richer
❌ The economy is diversified
❌ Infrastructure, power, or manufacturing are fixed
❌ Living standards are improving fast

No, so why are you giving credit to those who do not deserve it? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

What’s more painful is that while crude oil went up by about 6–10%, the pump price jumped by over 14%. That gap raises serious questions. If crude is the main input, why does the local price always rise faster than the global increase? Ordinary Nigerians feel shortchanged.😡😡😡

Petrol to cost more as crude oil price rises further

By Udeme Akpan, Obas Esiedesa, Godwin Martha & Bashiru Ayuba

On the heels of upward adjustments in the pump price of petrol three days ago, Nigerians may face another round of increases following a sustained rise in crude oil prices on the international market.

The price of Nigeria’s Bonny Light crude rose to $70.30 per barrel from $64 per barrel last week, representing an increase of about 10 per cent and the highest level recorded this year.

Similarly, the price of Brent crude, which is used to benchmark other crude grades, rose to $70.15 per barrel from $66 per barrel, while Murban crude increased to $68.01 per barrel from $65.20 per barrel.

Earlier in the week, petrol stations had marked up their pump prices to an average N850 per litre, up by about 14.3 per cent from N750 it sold on Monday, attributing the price hike to the rise in crude oil price.

The Dangote Refinery and oil marketers had also justified increases in global crude oil prices, explaining that crude oil is the main determinant of input cost.

But while crude oil price increased by 6.2 per cent, the local retail price increased by 14.3 per cent, indicating that local oil companies more than doubled the rate of increases in their main input cost, crude oil.

The rise in crude prices led to a 14.3 per cent increase in the gantry price of petrol at the Dangote Refinery, which rose from N699 per litre to N799 per litre.

Following the adjustment, petrol retail outlets in Abuja and Lagos as well as other parts of the country, also raised their pump prices.

NNPC Retail outlets also increased the price to N835 per litre from N815, while other marketers implemented steeper hikes. AYM Shafa, for instance, raised its pump price from N815 per litre to N900.

Speaking to Vanguard on the pump price increases, National Public Relations Officer, Independent Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN, Chief Chinedu Ukadike, blamed the hike on rise in crude oil price.

Some countries are fighting inflation; others are feeding it.
Perhaps i was bout to condemn my kon3 before i realised it's still a 3rd word kon3😁😁

Lol... That's what the news tell you that's not the fact, still going for Chinese products.

nairalanda1:
Chinese haven't mastered aerosapce the way the US, Russia and EU have. But they are getting there.

For the nonsense poll question above, i trust none... I'll prefer China products.

It’s normal. Any serious government will adjust its team when needed.

Minor reshuffle, no drama ..... that’s how governance should be.

He didn’t lie. Lagos worked back then because technocrats and politicians balanced themselves well more than they do now.

And if the north is grumbling and nobody listens, it will surely show during elections, and still affect them the most after elections too🥱🥱

Anyone involved in this kind of crime deserves the full weight of the law, if there's still any.

This is terrifying. Imagine trusting an orphanage and this is what’s going on inside.

Okay.

What are you saying, what is she saying....?

See this devil ooo e want may this papa go second term .. 😳

Former bandit....

If people truly lost lives and property, then government should explain clearly why a pardon was granted...🫤
Justice in Nigeria always looks selective. That’s why people are angry.🥱🥱🥱

Lol...😅

manuelkel:
Nothing caused it my dear, absolutely nothing....our people are too illiterate.
I blame illiteracy for that. I hope Soludo drives that madness of sit at home out from our people.
Ndi iberibe.

There is cause for alarm, but yes, they shouldn't go this far. Something caused it.

manuelkel:
Sorry to tell you that Anambra people are illogical. They all love the sit at home. Nobody is forcing them to sit at home, they are comfortable with it, they don't even want it to stop.

Sure say MTN no go dey charge una for that road...? 😂🤣🤣

If he was sent 2, 3 years in dagestan and forget this 4 no happen 😁


This one go rot 4 jail ooo😐😐😐

4 my area that will be called expensive... Full head depending will cost 2k+

If other South-East states don move on, why Anambra still stuck?


Perhaps Mazi Kanu himself talk say stop am, so who are you following again?
This thing don pass protest. It’s now fear and force abeg.

finally catch up with these ‘connection people’. This one loud well well.
55 counts? Omo no be small fish oo
This is serious business.
People should learn: no matter how connected someone looks, verify everything. 🥱

Nonsense....
