EgunMogaji: 1) I completed laterite filling of the main house and will allow it to naturally settle through a few rain and dry cycles. German floor to be done mid year.
2) In the meantime focus has shifted onto the accessory building on which I broke ground on https://www.nairaland.com/2847494/construction-2-bedroom-garage-apartment#41913259 The foundation, filing and german floor will be done in my absence I'm still debating that decision but we shall overcome all evil powers fashioned against our finances 
I will be on ground for 21 days March/April to oversee the raising of the walls and hopefully roof for the accessory building. Nice one eheh fire for any obstacle to our pocket enlargement. We are marching forward. |

tuale4u: I understand what it is 100%. I support subsidy of raw materials like fertilizers, i support subsidy on machines like tractors, harvester and other agric machines. I support subsidy on manufacturing machines and other raw materials.
I am totally against subsidy on Consumption. Petrol is mostly consumption commodity. So i am totally against subsidy of petrol.
You may argue that small businesses use generators for thier business and also on transportation of thier raw materials and priduct. But d truth is dat 80% of petrol consumes in nigeria are at consumptiom level. Well ,shouldn't we be advocating for less importation of petrol than removing subsidy? |

grandstar: the existence of the subsidy supports the 'cabal'. there is no cabal in diesel which has been deregulated Deregulation is not removal of subsidy.it's allowing market force to flow.the govt still pays for the diff I'm cost to importers.the highest users of diesel is the UK.guess what the pump price is. |

Bevista: Do you have any contrary information to the one advanced? --- According to PPPRA, the current landing cost of PMS is lower than N80/ltr, so the recommended OMP (open market price) of N86 has no subsidy input. In fact, I understand there is a negative subsidy of around N1.50, since the ex-depot price is about N84.50. Guy can't we all be wise.you are believing those bul shyte from those oleh.tell me the name of the country where it was landed from @N80/ltr.

Fuel pump prices has been as per market prices since September 2015 and the cost per litre of fuel has been dropping every month because of the current low market price of Crude Oil.

Stycon: Hmmm...http://www.globalpetrolprices.com/gasoline_prices/
So your point is subsidy should not be removed as planned even when it's evident that we may not be able to afford it conveniently any longer without incurring more debt and that some sycophants are using it as a cover to exploit Nigerians Nop subsidy should never be removed ed but the corrupt and sharp practices arround should be removed. Subsidy is the only thing the Nigerian go t is giving g the ordinary man on the street for free.What else ha e they subsidised for Nigerians nothing .take a look at ur link the cheapest amongst is heavily subsidised I'm on about venuzuella. .If importers are honest then this su side wo t be an issue..The only way round this is build more refineries. Then stop importation.Even at that we still can't buy at that rate go t can do direct su side by not including vat and other taxes.y would the FG not subscribe to this approach our guess is as good as minew. The CABALS they seem to be stronger than the FG |

Ofcourse, I understand that removal of subsidy might tell on the citizen's purchasing power in the long term. I meant as a country in terms of importation. And where do U think in the world petrol is sold less than $0.50/ltr? dnt forget the true value of $0.50 is approx N135 today. |

tuale4u: D fact that our bill is high d more reason for us to drop subsidy. Subsidy is a recurrent expediture. It has no impact on d future of d country. It is just consumption How can we remove subsidy when we are not self sufficient? We have to reduce importation by at least %70 then we can talk about removal of subsidy. And if we reduce import by that margin who and from Where do we fill the gap of our daily fuel consumption do the maths and U will see it don't add up.we can never remove it u til we can produce a significant quantity of our domestic needs. |

Why Nigeria should do the same
United Arab Emirate has an estimated population of 10 Million in 2015 Saudi Arabia has an estimated population of 32 Million in 2015 Nigeria has an estimated population of 170 million in 2015
United Arab Emirate produce an average of 3 million barrel of oil per day Saudi Arabia produce an average of 10 million barrel of oil per day Nigeria produce an average of 2.2 million barrel of oil per day.
United Arab Emirate refine 1Million barrel of crude a day(about 80million litres of petrol a day) Saudi Arabia refine 3million barrel of crude oil a day (about 240million litres of petrol a day) Nigeria refine 300 thousand (0.3 million) barrel of crude oil a day (about 24million litres of petrol a day)
UAE and Saudi Arabia do not import petrol. Their refinery operate at more than 95% capacity. All their fuel consumption is produce domestically. Nigeria import 80% of petrol consume in the country because Nigeria refinery find it difficult to operate at 50% capacity. Most times all the petrol consume in Nigeria are imported.
if UAE and Saudi Arabia can not afford subsidy anymore despite producing and refining their petrol in their country, I don't think Nigeria who import almost all the petrol it consume can continue with subsidy.
A Nigeria is a country with no infrastructure. Instead of wasting the little money we have on consumption through subsidy that favour the rich more than the poor, the money should be directed to area which have more impact in the lives of average Nigerians.
The more the number of cars you have, the bigger your car and fuel consuming generators, the more your capacity to fuel the cars and generators the more you benefit from subsidy. And it is the rich and upper middle class that falls into this categories.
Cc: Lalasticlala, Obinoscopy, Mynd44 Nice write up But my deduction we Nigerians subsidise imported fuel they subsidise produced fuel.so their subsidy bill is small compared to ours and less impact to their country Infact that economist was right the UAE shod have no biz subsidising fuel. |

At least you're more comprehensive and your points are narrowed properly and constructively unlike that useless chinchum fella who buttress a point he himself seems unable to decipher. Mr Erico, you'll sincerely agree with me that there has indeed been noticeable improvement in the refineries lately, atleast compared to how it has been functional in the previous administration. We should learn to commend our leaders when they do little, it will encourage them to do better, especially when they feel appreciated. Sentiments aside mr. Erico, the production capacity in the refineries with that of warri inclusive has improved notably under this administration. Is it a Yes or a No My friend this is the path I'm steering you to.this has been the status quo.this is how it has always been from 10 yrs ago.APC are just making it news for people who are not living in warri and PH .nothing g was done there the TAM was carried last year another way thieving NNPC staff siphone money..Our refineries are old and not fit for purpose that's the harsh reality. |

If the 3 refineries we've got are currently producing 6.7million pms to meet local demand out of the average local demand of 40m, from thesame refineries that were almost non function 8months earlier, but could now be producing 6.7m litre within the space of 7month of this new administration overseeing it's affairs, Can't your irrational mind no matter how demented it is, see possibility of this administration achieving more? Your analysis spew lots of sentiments which could only have come from a pessimist with a deluded mind so shallow as the depth of hades... Work on yourself dude... Oga when we the Men on ground in warri and PH say the refinaries Aint working what we meant was its producing a tiny drop in an ocean. This has always been the case so what's the big deal.in warri just one fractional distillation tower has been working for years. In PH I can tell you one of the Units had never worked |
