Are you not educated? Fuel should be N1200 so N650 is heavily subsidized

Bobloco:
Tinubu said that Subsidy is gone

So subsidy is gone

Nigeria owns about 18% of it by contributing
$2.7 billion cash, crude in material, and if you dig deep, probably 50% because of the cheap forex he was given

BloomingDale:
Na your papa get am. Nigerians and entitlement mentality.

Nigeria contributed about $3 billion out of the 19.5 billion and gave him cheap forex

9jatriot:
When the man was taking loans and sinking money into the project how much did you contribute that will make you want to dictate his price for him. If he likes he puts a litre at 2k, it is his business. Dangotte does not tell you how to run your own business so do not tell him how to run his.

Dangote will sell high and folks like you will defend it because of Tinubu the failure

Lifestone:
The crude is sold to Dangote at the international price, he purchased 90% of his equipment in dollars, so he will benchmark his pricing with international price.

The Nigerian fg owns about 15%-18% of that refinery.

Its not totally Dangote’s refinery

peleson1:
Let us wait and see if Dangote will sell fuel lower that it is now or same price.


Time to know if Dangote has always been out problem in this country or a helper.

If a litre is not sold at below N400 then I v my conclusion

Obj who remains my best president ever is a Yoruba man so you're talking nonsense!

The national Assembly is filled with election riggers so they lack legitimacy. They derive their powers from the 1999 constitution which is a fraudulent document because there was never a referendum to adopt the military imposed 1999 constitution.

Remember that the military regimes were illegitimate.

The confab of 2014 or a new constitutional conference that should actually be sovereign.

You want us to do half measures and start agitating after 2yrs?

TopBanter:
"Rejected by majority of Nigerians" indeed. The legislators are representatives of Nigerian people by constituency. They can legally represent their people at any constitutional ammendment deliberation with their input deemed to be that of the people they represent.

Nigerians have no power to reject majority ruling of the legislators. This is why you hardly witness dispute once NASS ratify a bill and pass such into law

Stop hiding behind bullcrap in an attempt to disguise the fact you are just a mischievous detractor not interested in progress under a Yoruba President.

Were this to be under an Obi LP government you'd be fully behind the President's Party using it's own committe report as guidance for the implementation of restructuring.

Lies!

You cannot have 1/10 this level of insecurity in a military regime.

A benevolent, competent and patriotic military ruler will be better. Look at Rwanda, a military guy(though it seems he has transitioned to civilian)

Either we restructure back to 1963 constitution with necessary ammendments or military rule but we cant continue like this.

Namaster:
Spoken like an idiot who has never lived under a military rule.

A military regime in Nigeria would have ALL the troubles in Nigeria RAISED to power 10. Nigerian military are more useless than Nigerian politicians.

Decades after his death, Nigeria is still recovering what Abacha looted from Nigeria.

Nigerian politicians take your money and leave you to wallow in insecurity. Nigerian military would take your money, your daughter, your wife and your life if you complain about it.

Are you blind to how Nigerian Military act like cultists?

Stop saying NONSENSE!

We know we need to restructure back to 1963 constitution but lazy people are blocking it because no sharing of Niger Delta oil money in 1960 or 1963 constitution

Testiebobo:
Since we dont know what we are doing again, we dont know where we are coming from or where we are going. Maybe we should just return the power back to the military men or they take it my force. Bcuz me i no understand which kind country b dis oo. Let kukuma know we are controlled my harsh people rather than democracy with harsh economy

What will this do for you?

Thevideoguy:
Political commentator Reno Omokri has uncovered attempts to distort historical facts surrounding the January 15, 1966 coup in Nigeria.

On the 58th anniversary, he exposed a circulating fake list that falsely combined the names of those involved in the January coup with those in the subsequent July 29, 1966 counter-coup, misleading many individuals, including Mike Ozekhome, SAN.

You can trace the location of a phone call.

Stop giving excuses for those security chiefs appointed due to nepotism and tribalism

TimeManager:
It does not work, my friend. Those bandits make use of their victims' phones to make calls to their families.

-kiss the truth!

Most companies in Abuja are mandated to be there by virtue of Abuja being capital.

I'm from Niger Delta and I feel we're being shortchanged in Nigeria. I recognize that part of the reason is self inflicted while the other part is the insensitivity of the Nigerian state.

Hopefully, there'd be restructuring and resource control some day

iLegendd:
You have a point, but it's no longer like that compared to what Boko Haram is doing in the North.

Even with insecurity in Abuja, way worse than the Niger Delta, since 2015, companies and embassies are moving there on a daily basis.

Kidnappers operate in Abuja with ease. In fact, terrorists are in Abuja everyday. Why didn't they move essential establishments out of there?

Militants operated 10-15 years ago and their damages isn't as horrific as Boko Haram has been doing since 2014.

Think about it. If the government and companies are so scared, why not they move all the drilling companies out of the Niger Delta and drill them in Ogun or Lagos so that the Niger Delta can rest?

How the North and West allowed Bubu to wreck the country to this abysmal level is beyond comprehension.

Bubu was killing Nigeria but they were praising him, fighting the SS/SE that always called him out.

Now look how terrible things have become

You mean shame on Tinubu, the incompetent mandate thief

madridguy:
Useless bastards with black hearts. Killing innocent children over money.

President Tinubu should come out and rescue them all. Give the bastards the 100 million and let the remain children go back home to their parent..

Shame on the FG for not being able to protect Nigerians.

Amoda should resign. He has failed to protect lives and properties

Many companies moved their headquarters to Lagos when the kidnapping of expatriates intensified around early 2000.

One of the factors in deciding establishment of a production company is nearness to source of raw material. If the Niger Delta is safe, most of these oil companies will not have left and new ones would happily join

iLegendd:
Where Dangoté situates his company is not Niger Delta's birthright. Trust me.

When we were calling the undisputed heavyweight champion of incompetence Bubu, buhariseens and batists were calling us wailers, that Bubu has technically defeated terrorism.

The chicken has come home to roost

slivertongue:
very sad.
terrorists took over Abuja during Buhari's administration.

A confab was already done in 2014. They already came out with over 600 negotiated resolutions. Just implement!

Just implement!!!

TopBanter:
Garbage as usual. Restructuring, resource control, state policing etal are simple enough concepts to shape to regional peculiarities if signed into law.

No need for any confab hosting "ethnic nationalies" POV that is a patent waste of time.

You're just confusing yourself because like the average Igbo and Obidient, dissenting first with anything the government of "Yoruba people" suggest is default modus operandi for you rather than just backing what is best for the delivery of solutions for all Nigerians.

Let the APC government deliver Restructuring, resource control, greater regional autonomy etal. Serious regions, desirous of progress, can take it from there while you and your ilk continue talking about confab and other asinine issues.

We use tribalism, favouritism and nepotism to form a team of national unity vs selecting the best even if from the old Eastern and midwest regions to form a team of competence. These two old regions knows how to play football[quote author= post=127952689]Looking at it from another angle.....

A country of over 220 million people versus a country of 1.6 million people.

Alimosho Local Government Area in Lagos population is 1,953,500 bigger than Equatorial Guinea.

Football no be by population ooo[/quote]

F00lish police that joins govt even if the protest is for its welfare

To look but not to see!

Half of that money is gone!

Paraman:
I don't know why you clowns love saying negative things.

If you know anybody that's about to steal the money, go and tender your evidence to the EFCC make we rest from una negative energy and wailings.

People that knows nothing about indices of development is praising Amoda for taking hard decisions instead of bringing down inflation, bringing down cost of living, bringing down insecurity, bringing down poverty.

Tinubu is a monumental failure

Nigerians did not elext Tinubu, Mahmmud and the judiciary rigged him in. He never won!

Airlohim:
Which government? Did Nigerians elect a President? They elected the guy who says it's his turn, not a President.

The govt will take security seriously as it comes closer to them

If the Dangote refinery was built in Niger Delta, there would be no need for shipping, just pipe the crude there.

Niger Delta, una see unasef? Your insecurity is making you lose your birthright!

The hardship made it worse but that is what metamorphosed into this.

DenreleDave:
Is that what metamorphosed to this current one or the hardship apc Brought

You're using to many meaningless words. Negotiated resolutions of the confab by the ethnic nationalities will be more acceptable than few men in a room deciding for entire country

TopBanter:
Even what is universally agreed as a solution petty and ethnocentric people like you must argue about because you see individuals ( GEJ not Tinubu) rather than ideas i.e the implementation of comprehensive restructuring asap regardless of what or whose submission is used to achieve it.

It is as if attachment to clan, ethnicity, religion or sectional affiliation blind you to what is obvious which is that solutions, that stops Nigeria failing, must be brought in ASAP. If APC wish to use the El Rufai committee submissions then so be it.

A progressive person knows that APC are in power and want to be perceived as providers of solutions. Natural they will not want to do PDP any favours.

They will use El Rufai's committee finding to claim glory but that should not bother any progressive Nigerian because they are simply seeking solutions and are not politicians quibbling over political bragging rights. Really tiring sharing a nation with your sort.

They can use the 2014 confab because it was well convocated vs a committee report that will be rejected by majority of Nigerians

TopBanter:
More rubbish as usual from a detractor trying to keep his fire of bias against others burning.

If the solutions are identified then why another dumb jamboree instead of the ruling Party just using it’s political leadership and influence , in the legislative and executive arm of Nigerian governance, to directly tackle constitutional amendments to then reach implementation stage without delay and before Nigeria collapes?.

Every averagely intelligent Nigerian knows that Nigeria cannot work , regardless of the contribution of even the most talented President, if comprehensive restructuring of our governance system is not introduced asap.

Only detractors throw up inconsequential and trifling details. Progressive people prefer all delay be eliminated so implement stage, that drives solutions, is reached without delay regardless of who delivers it

No constitutional conference is needed. This is how we waste money and achieve nothing. APC is in power and has legislative majority and superior coercive/bargaining power as head of executive arm.

Let the Party use that power and advantage to immediately implements solutions that have been identified as far back as the 1970s instead of engaging in retrogressive practice, as you suggest, that have ensured long-identified solutions have never been implemented.

When ladies are kidnapped, the world respond else nothing. That's why terrorists targets females.

Security should be taken seriously for all

You're smart. They are producing fuel but intend selling at current price

Beverlyjean:
The only thing I don't understand is the production of only diesel and jet fuel... and not pms... but diesel and jet fuel are by- products from pms .... so how are they now producing diesel and jet fuel without pms

How?

directonpc:
What if things Turn for good, unexpectedly.

There will always be insecurity however it was minimal during PDP years.

Major insecurity started with Bokoharam/ chibok girls kidnapping and these were politically motivated by the North to kick out GEJ but unfortunately, it went out of control!

DenreleDave:
As much as apc has done so many damages to this nation, does it mean there were no insecurity and kidnapping during pdp regime?


Pls this is no attack or defence of any party... Just discuss freely

You think a country can wish itself to prosperity?

ATEAMS:
2024 is Nigeria year of economics breakthrough......

Slow and steadily wins the race...

Nigeria will be great again regardless of all our shortcomings...
