Politics › Dont Not Under Estimate The Power Of The Nigerian Masses by blacksta(op): 1:52pm On Jan 13, 2012
For so long  - I thought Nigerians were docile including myself  - and were happy with the case of Suffering and Smiling . A report published earlier stated that " Nigerians were the happiest people in the world  - Still happy even though being ravaged by poverty daily. 

I have seen the coward at the Ojota  - I cant believe it , almost brought ties to my eyes.  Seeing the little organisation here at Ojota  - I believe with the right leadership , Nigeria can be turned arround in under 10 years. People are ready to fall in line. Who is not tired of poverty whilst less than 1% of the population control the common wealth.

If I were a leader of any nation - where the masses are turning against me and my insincere policies  - I would be  very worried and i am not sure i would be able to sleep at night.

I believe the Fear barrier is gradually being broken.

Thank God for the likes of Save Nigeria Group and other similar civil groups who have been able to harness people power int the right direction.

This is now beyond the Labour groups

The First point failure was the consumption figures.  Even the government dont have a figure hence the only figures that suits the 1.3 trillion sham is 35 mIllion per day data.   Any premise to build on  that made up figure no matter how beautiful your calculations look or colorful  your graphs LOOKS the end result is a [size=20pt]massive F9 [/size]
Politics › Nigeria Union Orders Oil, Gas Shutdown From Sunday by blacksta(op): 3:26pm On Jan 12, 2012
LAGOS, Nigeria Jan 12 (Reuters) - Nigeria's main oil union said on Thursday it would aim to shut down the country's oil and gas production from Sunday, as part of a national strike over a more than doubling of petrol prices.

"We are herby notifying the Federal Government of Nigeria , that PENGASSAN shall be forced to go ahead and apply the bitter option of ordering the systematic shutting down of oil and gas production with effect from , 0000 hours of Sunday Jan 15," the union PENGASSAN, said in a statement.

This can't be right. This figures are made up from hell. So far from all the available government data-. Subsidy payments is a combination of interest payments, demurrages, inflated figures, actual imported fuel. The figures supplied by the op is based on so called consumption only.

When I find the document. I will post the link.

If you also remember, a number of times importers have threatened to stop importing unless government settles their accounts
Politics › Re: Simplified Arguments RE: SUBSIDY by blacksta(m): 7:11pm On Jan 11, 2012
There is an arrangement btw importers and government,  upon delivery of fuel , government must pay within 90 days, but what you have was typical payments days of almost 200 days.  The agreement also stipulates that I can start charging interests after 90 days. With dollar flucating against Naira everyday the interest payments became astronomical. Importing fuel is big business, you can imagine the big interest payements. All these extra increases happened under Gej, why it happened I don't know
Politics › Re: Simplified Arguments RE: SUBSIDY by blacksta(m): 7:05pm On Jan 11, 2012
He is very correct - the extra on top of 300b is a makeup of interests payments, inflated figures, demurrage charges.

It is unlikely that the protest will fail, what is very likely is a compromise by the government.  Without a compromise , this government will become a sitting duck, just like in the days of IBB and Abacha after masses revolt  It is in  the best interest of this government if it wants to to achieve anything or any of its transformation agenda it much show to be listening government.  Nobody is saying subsidy must continue , but its implementation must be sincere and conducted in a condusive environment. 

In the nigerian context subsidy is like crack and nigerians are addictied to it. Winning Nigeria off the crack without incentives wont work

You just rubbished yourself with your comment, european governments subsidise the farmers that produced crops/rear animals and not the prices in the supermarkets for the consumers, the subsidy for the farmers lowers the price they sells to the supermarkets, do u know how many workers that subsidy will employ to produce those crops?

Animals rearer protested in brussel recently asking for increase in price their milk because the supermarkets increased their price due to inflation, is that consumption?
Same principle with subsidy on petrol  - to lower price and relative to the standard of living  - We have all the seen the 100% increase in cost of everything with wages remaining stagant.  We should be careful not to compare western economics to what we have in Nigeria.   In the Nigerian context everything revolves round oil at this point in time.

So having a social welfare programe and subsidising agriculture is the same as subsidising consumption to some people on NL? shocked shocked shocked
When will Nigerians stop disgracing the country? When will this itk end? embarassed embarassed embarassed embarassed

Social welfare and agriculture are productive resources of the economy.
Your government does not provide enough electricity, water, health care, transportation and many others. if you look out this way in the Nigerian context - private electricity generation powers the economy - from the small roadside tailor to the ice block seller -

Dude,
U should thank God the decision to remove subsidy is coming sooner than later, sensible economy subsidise production and not consumption, We all envy Europe and America, did u think they got there by subsidizing consumption?, it's a waste.
Oloshi - U don prove say u no get brain

Are you aware that there is agric subsidy in Amercia and Europe. You think they can compete with farms in africa and asia without subsidy. The Uk government pays roughly 5 billion pounds yearly to subsidy rail and bus transport network.

Your first class environment must be rubbish.
