Long overdue.. no need for plenty talk; 7 big wins this, gas flare commercialization that.

When cars and vehicles run on Autogas, there will be less demand for PMS.. they should look into gas powered buses, solar and electric powered vehicles too.
Nigeria shall rise again.

Why are poor people reproductively active in Nigeria?

The thing tire me o.. like they have too much free time to be mounting themselves while others are busy at work trying to make more money.

Make I no abuse the OP.. how on earth will you have 5 kids with such income? Haven't you heard of family planning??
It's carelessness on your part, whether you accept it or not.. Some of you think because you have sex easily means you're better than the rest which is totally false.

Did you know at a time in China, it was 1 child to a household?.. like you can't have more than one kid because they wanted to reduce poverty.

The evil of gender confusion & distortion keeps growing... who will save the sane ones?

Let them keep following NNPCL like mum.u till they all fold up.. "market forces'' but the barawo pple are hiking price of PMS anyhow without taking current economic situation and living standards in the country into consideration.. It's all about excessive gain and easy money for them.

With alternative fuels like LPG, Autogas & CNG for vehicles and biofuels, even firewood, plant and animal wastes (biomass) and charcoal used in rural areas, most of the marketers would soon go out of business.. They think they are killing Nigerians but are infact killing themselves.

It's the peace and tranquility being restored for me.. before now, cows don't allow motorists breathe in Abuja municipal, now the menace has reduced drastically.
Most people now feel safe to travel by roads, something that was considered risky by many some years back.

What I want them to try and fix are the refineries. They are doing it in UAE, nothing stops Nigeria from having functional refineries. Enough of this suffering and smiling lifestyle biko..

There's nothing wrong when someone rejects a job he has no passion for.

True sha..
We all have our choices to make for ourselves afterall.

The sit at home backed by Igbo elites and politicians you mean?.. see the one in Ajao estate that was nabbed over IPOB affiliation, seventy years old man o.

I think FG should as a matter of urgency stop payment of monthly allocations to all 5 States in South East so the people there doing sit at home will feel the consequences of their actions.. Yorubas, Hausas, Ijaws, Ikwerres etc. can't be working for lazy people in SE to eat. O wrong gan ni.

SalamRushdie:
This is what some of us warned about , Market forces is very dangerous in a country like Nigeria where nothing works so the price will only just be going up and never come down

It's just sad.

I hope Falana takes the post if truly PBAT offered it to him.. he has been on the outside for too long advising those in government, let him go and witness the state of the nation from government's angle. Na who go, go know whatsup.
It's good to be a critic and be pro human right, but it's far more better to be the among those calling the shots.

nairalanda1:
If you were baking bread at N1000 and selling at N1300 a loaf, would you sell it , on government orders , at N200 so that you can help the poor?

I would like your honest answer to this question.

Baking in this context would mean value addition or processing/refining activities if I'm correct.. In Nigeria, bulk of the PMS, AGO etc. used are being imported while our refineries lay closed and non-functional.

The problem is that noone knows exactly if what NNPCL and the other marketers quote about costs of importation, storage, distribution etc. are actual figures or inflated figures for them to make excess gain.

The cost of manufacturing or value addition in-country would have been a pointer to what prices of petroleum products should be not the nonsense importation going on in a country blessed with abundant oil and gas deposits.

Let me ask you.. where is the sense in Mele Kyari investing billions of dollars in Nigerian State money into a private owned company Dangote refinery when Port Harcourt and Warri refinery are there that needs to be revived?.. Is this the proper way to run a country of over 220 million people?

Sorry to say this mr poster, you're not intelligent one bit.

There was a time one Igbo couple who own filling station (God bless them plenty) refused selling PMS at the price NNPCL was selling as at June. Their reason was that they don't want to extort Nigerians and they kept selling at normal price while NNPCL was dishing out fake statistics to cover their broad daylight theft .

Dont be surprised if you see a fallout and in-fighting among the marketers where some will come out and sell at far lesser price than what NNPCL is fixing. They will soon split into factions cos some still have conscience and fear of God in them.
The NNPCL you are seeing now has turned cash cow for cabals to strangulate Nigerians to death through unreasonable prices using subsidy removal as excuse.. Just watch how NNPCL would be disgraced soon.

It's only in developed countries that the phrase "market forces" can be deemed fit because they have several market indices and tools to monitor and analyze changes in fuel price no matter how small which we lack in Nigeria.. Ask them for data now, you'll start hearing stories.

Moreover, the main idea behind "market forces" is to make prices competitive and become affordable for people to get products but reverse is the case with NNPCL in Nigeria.. their own market forces is to hike prices and kill Nigerians. How do they expect people earning below 50k monthly with families, some less than 30k monthly in some states to survive?
Wickedness of the highest order.

FreeSpirited:
Iya lo ma kusi Se..

So Peter Obi planned to increase it to 650 in one month?
So PO promised to give Judiciary judge 35billions and 8k to Ur family...Ashiere ni gbogbo yin, oluya.

You'll come back to seek forgiveness in a couple of months.

I know the current storm is giving your type orgasms, reason y'all are trying to score cheap political points with the recent happenings. Continue running your mouth pending when things will normalize.

Will the igbo support add an extra "G" to the GCFR affixed to his name?.. You better wake up from your delusions.

The guy is a bona fide omo ale.. authentic omo ale not fake.
The Peter Obi that he is trying to push forward came out to support PBAT in removal of subsidy because he himself promised to do so during campaigns. So what is that 0loshi omo saying??

mdimefields:
This is why he is the president. He has to do something, otherwise suffering may lead to popular revolt. Nigeria has been a cesspit of corruption, no doubt, but we need solution, whether long or short term solution. If it means getting one or two refineries working by any means and using it to drop price. By the way, what is the update with Dangote's refinery?

Honestly, it's painful seeing how evil and wicked some Nigerians can be to fellow Nigerians..

NNPC that changed to NNPCL started just like Saudi Aramco and likes who are doing excellently well in the business of Petroleum refining. I don't know why we can't just do things right in this country, a wealthy nation brought to her knees by a corrupt few who want to amass wealth they won't take with them when they die. Fake pastors and imams everywhere looking away while things rot, everyone is fighting for their own selfish interest.

Dangote dey where he dey.. we are still hoping to see products from his refinery by September cos July don almost end. We have Waltersmith Petroman and a few others (smaller scale refineries tho.), dunno why they are not that visible.

It's always same story of boredom.. she should join african clubs and mingle with other africans from Ghana and likes.

Moreover, the ugly trend of Nigerian women calling UK police on our Nigerian men once they start earning chicken change from nursing jobs is reason Nigerian men are avoiding them in UK and other parts of female-centric Europe. Indian women earn x10 of what our ozuor Nigerian women in UK earn but you won't see them call UK Police on their men for any reason whatsoever. Y'all should change and stop forgetting your manners and home training from Nigeria.

2mch:
Better to sack this MD. How can he be fixing the prices? But he’s saying it’s market forces. It should be the petrol stations not NNPC MD. This is pure sabotage.

Honestly, I'm even shocked PBAT left him out of those sent packing.

Nothing like market forces when NNPCL is the one setting the price for other marketers to copy and adjust their own prices. We are not fo0ls.
The problem of Nigerians now in this NNPCL.

They should run a thorough audit and investigation on NNPCL now, they'll see that bulk of what they are reaping from Nigerians is going into some people's pocket and unaccounted for.

mdimefields:
Take a step and re read what you just posted. Tell me what makes you different from a dictator? Nigeria is a Capitalist state and not a Communist enterprise. If your president was really prepared for governance, he would have made sure our refineries are working before messing up with subsidies. Well, na you tribe's man, so he can never be wrong.

I've been brainstorming on this oil sector issue for Nigeria for nearly a decade now. Truth is the past leaders didn't do much and the cabals (even within government) are complicit in making our refineries moribund and non-functional cos their men outside government are the ones doing the importation of petroleum products.

Once FG brings in the product for marketers to buy from FG in Nigeria here.. then let's see the mad marketer that will fix price to kill Nigerians.
If you know what they are appropriating to NNPC in yearly budget for turnaround maintenance of refineries for over 2 decades now, you'll cry. Money wasted, no result, nothing.

Your beloved Obi would have been the worst.. someone that can't say something and stand by it can't rule Nigeria.

I have said it that the President should take away license to import petroleum products from so called marketers and use the Federal Government Ministries specially created Departments to handle fuel importation. Forget that useless organization called NNPCL

All those Federal Directors and Perm Secs should answer call to service and quickly assemble competent hands. DSS should start killing anybody that interferes in the process of fuel importation going forward. Too many greedy bastards are in this country called Nigeria that deserve to die.

He should cut the judges some slack jare.. who even dash am prof?.
Where was he when Judiciary got gagged almost to point of death in the not too distant past. Every tom, dick and harry wants to trend.

If e easy, why him papa no go become judge. Yeye!

No be same 90 minutes dem play?.. How come and how manage??

Almaigaa:
Hope Gidgiddy no dey among them

If e dey there.. na sara.
The guy will soon come up with epistle about Army persecuting igbos.. na their way

Kudos to the combined troops for a job well done.. See that Chukwudi in blue head cover looking in disbelief.
By the the time Army finish with una.. all of una go know whatsup.

Iamzik:
Buhari also floated the naira yeah?

Next month fuel will sell for N900
Suffer go reset APC zombie brain to factory default

It can't.. If atal that happens, then I am afraid to say it's time to renegotiate our continued existence as a nation.. means the centre can no longer hold and we all can part ways.

Fvck NNPCL and other useless idiots that killed our oil sector, killed all our refineries and now on the verge of killing Nigerians. Awon onijekuje with their useless employees feeding fat and doing nothing.

Change the topic to.. one rich Igbo man living in Kano paid to erect Obi's birthday poster on billboard.

The illiterate should shut da fvck up..

Buhari's regime removed fuel subsidy before handing over power to President Tinubu.. PBAT's hands are tied as we speak.

The useless organization called NNPCL is worsening matters.. I really don't know why we elect f00ls from Southern part of Nigeria to go to National Assembly. How on earth would they have allowed Nigeria lose control over NNPC.

Now that they have fully deregulated the downstream oil and gas sector, these greedy marketers (shameless NNPCL inclusive) will have a field day exploiting Nigerians.

Attimes I wish we can reset this country.. like just press reset button somewhere. Just so frustrating.
