Northern schools are nothing to write home about.. I did my secondary school in Kano... although I received quality education simply because its a private school. But I can tell you the government schools in the north is so so bad.. pupils sit on the floor, the schools are dilapidated .. the pupils come to school anytime they like... SMH.. those in the north will understand what I'm saying ... ko ba haka ba ne??

The deal to freeze output had been decided before Buhari's trip,
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-02-16/saudi-arabia-and-russia-agree-oil-output-freeze-in-qatar-talks, the forcados line had been shut in as well with a removal of 350KBOPD from the intl market at the time, and it was being claimed by your likes that Mr Presidents travels stabilize the oil priced so he deserved to travel more, why absolving him from this last trip.
And if you still don't get the point I am trying to correct with this article, then you must be really "smart".

LadyExcellency:
You mean Buhari's discussions with Arab Princes without any commensurate action ever know to affect market caused a rise in oil price?
I don't understand the brand of sycophancy inherent in APC supporters.

NavierStokes:
To question 1 above would you agree with me that it was very silly to attribute the rise in price within that period to President Buhari's junket especially when there was no fundamental backing that rise. secondly if the president travels and an oil price increase is attributed to his trip, in the same way a price decrease should be attributed to him.

ernecy:
no develop BP over ipob matter, u hardly comment without bringing ipob into it.
Ha!! Kilode!!

Face the issue!!!

chudionu58:
Kindly visit any nomadic school nearby to cure your manifest illiteracy. Let me tell you that no government will build two bridges 'close' to each other without tolling one! All those bridges you mentioned are they the variants of their firsts? So why will government toll them?
2. Did Jonathan or Julius Berger ever told you of any plan to pull down the existing Niger bridge to build the second one?
3. What then stops commuters from using the old bridge? if they can't pay for the new one??
4. Are you telling me that if the 4th mainland bridge is to be built, it will most likely not be tolled?

A.b.oki take time oooh!

The inability for a regulator to exercise it's power shouldn't be an excuse to maintain a bad system. In an open market, markets forces can come into play and ensure we pay the right prices however I agree that regulation will play an important role and the DPR are not living up to their responsibility. Look at the telecom sector, when MTN and Econet were the dominant players. We were forced to pay per minute and told that per second billing couldn't be implemented. It didn't take any regulation to force prices down neither did government fix prices for calls even when we cried out. It took a new market entrant, Glo to enter the market with per second billing and immediately all the others had to do the same. At one point, it needs to be done. Price fixing is inefficient and we will continue to suffer this scarcity. As a private investor, I will not build a refinery or pipelines if I cannot recoup my costs in a market with fixed prices, government will not build refineries and pipelines because it can't. ..so what is the solution?

Sanchez01:
So with all the memes of Anonimi and the "God bless us all" articles of Barcanista, no show for them

obailala:
Now this is the first meaningful explanation I am reading regarding this fuel scarcity imbroglio. I think the ministry of information is in total coma and has failed totally in keeping Nigerians informed.

OlujobaSamuel:
kudos, that's one area the deregulation advocates fail to see. these people are just too greedy, they are not happy with the no subsidy and reduced margin, they caused artificial scarcity, we have cartels in all business, unlike telecommunications that each company is fighting to have all possible customers is can get, these ones don't need to solicit for customers to come, so anytime they want an increase in their pay, they just create an issue, deregulation will make it worse, they display price in unison which makes you have no choice but to go for the product anywhere you can find it.
economists term it oligopoly

Stylz69:
The government doesn't want to make the unpopular decision, which by the way is the best decision, to deregulate the sector. I see people happily queueing by the road side to buy from black marketers at 150 naira -200 naira per litre yet years ago a wise man deregulated the market, filling stations were told to sell at 141 naira but we occupied the streets revolting. We are paying the price today and putting money in the pockets of those who want the price fixing to continue. Nobody wonders how the fuel ends up in jerrycans. Petrol stations don't necessarily have to divert tankers to make gains. They just sell all their products to the black marketers at 100-120 naira a litre. Let Magu be chasing yam eaters while petrol stations commit even greater financial crimes and corrupt practices.

kolaaderin:
You are right, all my OLOSHO s are igbo... right here on nairaland I be tribal warrior but in reality I creave badly for the sexy yellow bitches from olaigbo, they are soo soo good in bed.

this may be one of the main reason I do not want them to break away from Nigeria.

StunningCEO:
I give up. Go ahead guys, tear each other apart and let the vultures feed on your carcasses....

Dollyak:
Live a better life than we can imagine or I for that matter? Aww, you don't need to care about the stats they are there for a reason. Next thing we know, you won't care about a stats that says USA is richer than Nigeria because that is how ridiculous you attemps are?

And someone called you intelligent? Oh, you lots get lowerr cutoff marks in GCSE so perhaps that also applies to the notion of you being intelligent as a northerner. You are clearly intelligent .
Thank God for cut off mark .
I am bored and exhausted from laughing.

Dollyak:
Inventors hall of fame of what? The most troubled region with the highest poverty in Nigeria,? Which looks, Yours ? Custodian of meat and leather industry is all you can think of ? Do you have any more acheievement you are proud of from your region or even personal because this isn't impressive boi. I am just laughing myself off and also a bit sad for you guys.
You can't even list a proper acheivements

Dollyak:
Hey, the facts still remains you lots are poorer, despised, stricken with disease, easily manipulated, lowly regarded in society. Can you tell me what your region has that you should be proud of? You think your words are valuable. Do you think you can verbally hurts someone who doesn't think anything of you? When you get to my state of mind, you are strictly wasting your time. And it doesn't help your case that I am fortunate in everything.

Dollyak:
Naa.. I don't dream of your life. Who says you can even get near my presense boi . A mere fulani boi like yourself ?

StunningCEO:
You guys are simply embarrassing yourselves even if you are on an anonymous forum such as this.

First of all Fulaniman, let me say that I find you to be an intelligent person as well but I think it is very degrading when a man choses to exchange words that are only worthy of the gutter with a lady especially when nothing that she has uttered gives rise to that line of thought. Just my opinion o.

On the other hand, Dollyak is also quite capable and from her posts, you can imagine she is reasonably well exposed in real life. However, I think she is a little childish in some of her utterances moreso with regards to parental wealth etc, a matter which is irrelevant to the discuss being engaged in. (I doubt if either of you two is incapable of holding there own in the real world). She has however to her own credit, apologised for her earlier comment which might have been misconstrued as a denigration of all northerners.

Dollyak:
Oh, you are back. Thought you have been bought off with #5000 to go kill yourself because that is how worthless the life of an average fulani is. Oh, you wish my life is dicatated by your president huh? Even if I was living in Nigeria statistics shows I am more likely to live a good life as a southerner than be a northerner (This is irrespective of any president either fulani or not). Go and do something with your worthless self and stop talking to someone living a better life than you. Products of a failed state and tribe.

Dollyak:
@ fulanimafia Product of a failed system, where are you? Are you killed by bomb or what?

Dollyak:
Which ethnicity? The ethnicity that has been ravaged with bombs, poverty for decades, suffering, death as a results of many disease like polio etc. Naa I am good. Facts still remain, you are a products of a failed system, probably born out of wedlock if you drive a benz you are still an amajiri.

StunningCEO:
Damn you are being too harsh to Dollyak mehnn!! She is quite bright even if a little presumptuous sometimes. Must be the hangover from the beating Rosberg gave to our main guy yesterday in Bahrain.... ....on my way back to my normal day to day boring life...

Dollyak:
Overused Sperm bucket lol. Listen, your quip is a mere wishful thinking at best so save those poor attempts. Let me give you fact. You are from the poorest tribe in Nigeria, the most looked down upon, despised people. No money or political post will change this. Products of a failed system. You are not called amajiri for a reason.
Another fact, my journey so far in life can only be your dream, fantasy.
Your words doesn't change your hopeless life nor affect my life.

Dollyak:
Which region are you talking about specifically? Products of a failed poverty striken, leaching region . Just because your society has programmed your brain to a single digit doesn't give you any audacity to talk to me. Internet is surely an equaliser of human. Run along boy.
