Politics › Re: FG Confirms Supply Of Adulterated Fuel by Basicend: 8:44am On Feb 09, 2022
Yampotatocarrot:
If I were the FG, I'll just follow through with the current increase in price. It's already selling around/above 200 in some areas.

They go just use am do the fuel subsidy removal, so even if fuel is now available, the price doesn't revert back and Nigerians adjust to it. I know it's going to be difficult and things will be hard, but then, it's better to drink agbo once than to be sipping it
You are talking like this because they are either feeding u or you have a good paying source of income.

You are like our leaders, selfish and. Myopic.

Business › Re: Oil Price Risen To $93 Per Barrel Highest In Seven Years by Basicend: 11:09am On Feb 08, 2022
Vibesking:
Our 2022 budget anchored oil price benchmark at $62/b. Since oil price has now soared to $93, it means we'll be having $31/b extra in our Excess Crude Account.

This is good news as more budgetary funds could be channeled into key industries/ministries such as education, agriculture, manufacturing.

But I trust this government. They'll squander whatever has been generated from the ECA and go on a spending spree.
They will rather complain of fuel subsidy impact.

removing the subsidy is not the issue here...our leaders will still not manage the resources well there by looting more of it. Inflation will still be on the rise and will in turn affect the price of the importation of fuel which the price will later increased because the downstream has been deregulated. We all know who will be on the receiving end .why are we painting the subsidization as a bad thing as if we don't have any other country subsidizing fuel for her citizens and even the almighty America do subsidized fuel,just to mention a few.
That is what those guys don't see.

Putting money in the hands of Nigerian politicians and expecting proper appropriation is like saying Leeds United will win EPL.

You made a lot of sense. Good post

However subsidy has to go.

If we did all you suggest, the money raised wont adequately cover subsidy costs.

The problem is the cost of production rises and keeps rising

Plus after you cut costs the money would only be enough for a year.

Then we have other sectors like education, health, transport that need the money too

Finally, Nigeria does not make enough money in the first place.subsidy removal means more investment, more profit, saved money higher than what we can get from cutting goverment spending and thus more prosperity.
The point you guys have not yet seen is that the so called revenue that would come from fuel subsidy removal will still be siphoned for coming election purposes and pockets of our politicians.

Nigerian will get less that 15 percent of it as drop down. That is definite.

Bro, haven't you see ln the tracks for.many years. . Our politicians will just impoverish the mercies and divide the monies as usual.

Who cares. . This is the only way the masses can get anything from these selfish leaders.

This country surprises me...

I thought the president was determined to tackle graft in the downstream petroleum sector but in the end he has no will to see through with his decision.

APC and gra gra...

By now PDP would have increased fuel prices jejely hereby sharing the burden between government and citizen but APC went to pass PIB, now their spineless selves can't follow through...

Not implementing the PIB put Nigeria at risk of losing key investments. They have collected the accolades for passing the PIB now is the time to collect the thorns too.
Guy, you are just typing Grammer with no deep understanding of what you are saying. .

What graft are they tacking on downstream sector. . Is that the significant issue affect economic recovery or liquidity in the system?

Is there no graft in budgetory allocations and all governmental processes?

All the borrowed funds how were they amortized?

The recovered looted funds, how were they appropriated?

Do you know how much they budget for kitchen allowance for themselves alone?

Why cant executive govt officials and legislators have just 1 or 2 cars allowed to them?

Do you know how much billions of dollars or borrowed funds have been waisted by Buhari into oil search in the north basin? When the world is diversifying to eco-friendly energy?

Do you know how much we pay for presidential aircraft fleet maintaining a day?

Why should we be paying forex for refining PMS, something we produce at our backyard. .? Can't our leaders objectively think on that?

But you are out here shouting Nigeria is loosing investment if subsidy is not removed. . Because you have an absorber that would cover u and your family. That is very narrow, myopic, shallow and selfish thinking bro. .


More than 92 percent Nigerians don't have that absorber that you have and their survival matters above all.

Wellness and well-being of the citizenry should be first.

If you intend to prioritise the welfare of Nigerians then remove oil subsidies immediately because it doesn't exist in the first place. If Nigerians insist that subsidies exist, then the government will acquire $7 billion loans and share it among themselves.

If 96% of Nigerians are suffering, they should revolt and remove the government.


Buhari said fuel subsidies is corruption, Mele Kyari said oil subsidies have been removed in 2020, Fuel Consumption Data Is Crazy, Says Minister Timipre Sylva. Yet stupid Africans are debating what doesn't exist, while their own leaders rob them blind using foreign currency and fake fuel subsidies.

Buhari is the minister of petroleum, yet one single refinery is not working!

Fuel subsidy gone forever in Nigeria – NNPC GMD

Bro,

I am sorry to say that you are shallow really.

I can't pick or grip your points. Where are you driving at. .

If you are saying there are no subsidies, then what are they removing? . . That means they are planning to multiply by times 3 present suffering of the masses by placing an artificial yoke of inflation on them. .

These guys are almost dead presently. . They should fix the leakages in the system. .

If Nigerians cannot even feed anymore. . A revolution will break out and the govt will be gone. . Or Nigeria may even be gone . That is the reality.

ThinkSmarter:
They should remove the fuel subsidy
Improve power supply.
Improve accessibility to clean energy [Solar]
Those of you kicking against the removal of fuel subsidy should know that Nigeria economy is solely dependent on oil revenue.
And PMS is used more than AGO, DPK and LNG combined.
Worst case scenario is that most of the subsidized products are diverted to other West African countries where they still market the product without subsidy.
Before federal government will realize more capital for infrastructure development in railways, education, health, agriculture etc.
Subsidy must be removed.
Don't expect state governments to pay salaries smoothly, employ people, increase workers salary and carry out infrastructural development without increase in Federal allocation.


Remove the Fuel subsidy Now!
It's high time we make a crucial decision for our future and damn the temporal consequences.
You are a clown. .

I know probably u are either one of the people close to politicians having access to free Commonwealth funds. That is why u are saying they should remove subsidy.

Or either u are a successful and corrupt business man that is thriving due to the rot of the system.

Can you remind me how many times they have removed the subsidy before?

If they remove it again now, prices will fly times 3. . A lot can't even afford 1 square meal now. . In some few months time, they will claim that they have infused subsidy again into their expenses.

Let them prioritize the welfare of the masses above all. . Let them remove the leakages in their system and excessive perquisites and allowances and budgetory allocations for executives and legislators. The executive airplane fleet and maintainance . . Etc.

96 percent of Nigerians are heavily suffering . . Stop being selfish as your leaders.

backbencher:
I have supported subsidy removal for ten years now, and no, I am not a APC supporter or a PDP supporter, and you do me a disservice assuming I support either...

There are many good reasons why subsidy should go. For now, i'll leave you with one....would you let government set the price of the goods you sell to help the poor?


Yeah, and subsidy still has to go. We've lost too much money from it. We are about to lose another trillion naira.
Your perspective is based on the impact of subsidy application as it affects your personal business and life.

But in gross terms, many Nigerians cannot even afford one square meal right now. I mean this is like 30 to 40 percent of the population.

How do you expect them to live when price of PMS hits N350 and above. Also the inflationary effect as it affect general goods and services.

Look, it is not realistic right now. Survival and basic needs of citizenry first.

Let govt create or repair refineries. Let the cut of many excess leakages in the system (executive and legislature). Salaries and perquisites of those guys are unreal.

Stop pushing the burden on the masses always. If they tried it they would have been the end.
