I completely agree with you on the stability issue as it concerns PMS. However, if your point regarding enjoying N60-N80 petrol was valid, then why am I not enjoying such price differential in AGO which you and I know it's not subsidized.

If the price of AGO does not reflect market realities even after complete removal of subsidy, what is the guarantee that the price of PMS will do so upon full deregulation.

The government seems to still FIX prices even after deregulation. Just curious.

Seriously? You are equating money to sexual urge?Money is man made niggah, Is it only through sex that people get HIV?

Discipline as I see it here, is having responsible sex, which one can have with another consenting adult, so if he can't find someone to marry or doesn't want to marry at all, then he shouldn't have sex?

Bevista:
I've considered that view. However, naira has devalued less than 15% while crude oil price has dropped more than 50%. So it doesn't even out.

You may also wish to note that according to PPPRA website, the landing cost (including all logistics) of petrol is less than N98. So at this time, the FG is not spending a dime in petrol subsidy, apart from all the extra margin they make from AGO.

Why is it there in the first place if it will lead one to sin? Which kind punishment be that one?

Reiyvinn:
1.) Surpressing an urge and Controlling an urge are two entirely different things. In fact, wanking is a form of controlling an urge, which is why once done, the issue of sex is completely rubbed off the mind and such a person can concentrate on other things. And this leads us to ->

2.) Wanking can be seen as pseudo-sex where you tell the body "Hey body, I'm having sex so don't trouble me again, ok?" and once you're done, you move on. However, wanking for like 10 hours straight after perhaps 15 releases can lead to Heart attack. It's even insane and self-torture to try such. So it all boils down to use & mis-use and yes, you can self-service responsibly. Everything is done responsibly.

It's not "loss of control," it's control itself. Cheers

Hehe.... you guys think there's something you wrote here that the OP had never heard before coming on Nairaland? Read bible, pray, fast, this and that, OP said he was born and brought up in a core Christian family. This suggests that he does all these already! And the thing still dey do am .

Prayer and fasting do no stop konji o! Nigerians and hypocrisy! God created nature and do not work against it. Konji is natural. So if you have any practical advice, give it and stop quoting the bible as if there's anywhere in it that says, "and I will stop your konji".

freecocoa:
See people saying he should pray,what is he going to be praying about exactly? Against the spirit of sexual urge that was given to him by God in the first place? Una funny sha .

Reiyvinn:
Don't be deliberately obtuse. YOU know for everything, there are precautionary measures. The actual discipline lies in not over doing those things rather than not doing them at all for the fear of being burnt forever.

Eating: Obesity

Recreation: Hernia

Fasting: Starvation, Mal-nutrition and death

Emforced Celibacy: Secret paedophillia, rape -- and eventually, "God please forgive me!"

Dude, have you heard the term "Drink responsibly"? It takes discipline to do that. So you see, you can "Eat" responsibly, self-service responsibly, Fast [whatever that means] responsibly, furck responsibly, e.t.c all na discipline.

So as you said, it does pay to live a disciplined life, not an indoctrinated one. Cheers

Reiyvinn:
You can't be given tea and expected not to drink it.

If God gave you that urge to always feel 'konji' whenever you wanna bang, and tells you not to bang, then God must be cruel for that.

Fortunately, that God doesn't exist.

Do whatever pleases you as long as you hurt nobody.

Live life, (1) self-service, (2) furck, (3) drink, cure your madness; it's your life and not for a guy in the sky. Period!

okoyemike:
I'm not in a position to give such advice because I have a girlfriend. But when I travel far away from her, I control the urge to get a temporal gf by constant thinking of the things that matter in life and finding my hand something to do

Nutase:
Bros, thank God say konji dey worry you. It shows you are normal. Some people dey pray for konji but their hormones no gree initiate the process.
Back to your question you cant fight nature but can only put it in check. Apostle paul speaking said 'I beat my body under subjection.......' Its a process which requires loads of discipline. Like the athlethe who requires loads of discipline to keep to his/her training schedule so as to keep fit and win competitions, so does a christian require discipline to win the race of life.
Discipline can come by fasting and prayer, studying d word of God etc. Once your spirit can take charge konji will still rear its face cos its natural but u will overcome it by the SOG.

Diesel (AGO) has no subsidy. Why has the pump price not adjusted to reflect the current realities in the crude oil market just like every other sane country is experiencing. Pump price stays the same even after crude oil price has gone down by more than 50%. An economic explanation from your government will help, cos I'm lost.

You should be more worried about corruption and not subsidy removal.

Just so u know, as an economist I am not a fan of subsidy.

If my advice is not coming late I think your best bet is to meet him in an open place like an eatery. Ensure you pay the bills, act religious and politely decline his offer. If he is single and are you too you guys can get to know yourself better. I don't want to type long but I know of a similar case and today the guy is a big blessing to the family of the girl yet they are not in any sexual relationship. Infact the man was amaze that someone can turn down his offer.

Originalsly:
The subsidy removal was right.....what was wrong was the follow up that never happened....what did the FG do with the withdrawn subsidy? Nobody knows...so that being the case...like Mynd said....restore the subsidy.Aside...help me understand how you can be bragging about being a big oil producer and not having refineries...nor making serious efforts to have? In Nigeria Petrol should be competing with the price of pure water.

THANK YOU

Mynd44:
Guy, you dont need foreign investors to build refineries. You have firms here who can finance that.

An agreement with them detailing the need to continue with the current price regime and have an agreement is enough.

Mynd44:
The only reason there is a price control is because we import refined products. I agree that price control should be removed but not before refineries are built.

An agreement should be reached and when the refineries are almost done, remove price control.

Removing price control before refineries are even constructed is callous and giving the guys importing fuel acess to billions in the 18months it will take to build new refineries

Mynd44:
Do not remove the subsidy.[b] Fix the darned refineries, build new ones [/b]or allow private investors build new ones then remove subsidy.

Where will the money being used for the subsidy go if it is removed? The same place the money saved from the partial removal went thin air

Mynd44:
What we need are local solutions to local problems. Award Oil blocs to oil indigenous firms Dangote, Oando, Adenuga, Zenon oil and then award the license for refinery on the condition that the oil that comes from the Oil bloc is only going to go to the refineries and sold locally at market defined costs.

Take out the price control and watch market forces work

Mynd44:
And what happened?

What happened to the money saved from the partial subsidy?

Where are the palliatives?

You people talk like you don't live in Nigeria. When petroleum prices go up, not just motorist suffers but we all do. I need more money to power my generator, production firms need more money, hell even telecoms companies suffers as the price of diesel is too high.

What stopped the Goodluck administration from building new refineries, fixing old ones and then removing the subsidy?

That is economic policy with the people in mind.

vanunu:
I know that u are one of those who objected to subsidy removal. At times I wonder the kind of school u people went to.

anonimi:
Where were you when Jonathan wanted to LIBERALISE the downstream oil sector that would have allowed investors in refineries to ULTIMATELY bring down price though enhanced COMPETITION?

Was this not what happened with the

- Telecoms
and
- Cement

sectors
