Go read Obi's manifesto, besides nothing is going on at the Kaduna refinery here, I don't know about the one in warri and PH. The Dangote refinery too is yet to be completed... forget what buhari and co did that time.

So In summerly, Tinubu removed fuel subsidy unprepared!!!!

Show me the part of the manifesto where he laid out how he would remove it.

Complete bunkum, unprepared? It is long overdue, it should have been removed under Obasanjo.

Emyzoloye5:
Obi promised to remove fuel subsidy by 50% after making provision for palliatives and the rehabilitation of our Refineries

But Tinubu mumuciously announced it's removal without plans, I'm sure he has no idea of what fuel subsidy is all about

Can you please direct me to where he said that? Not only that, are the refineries not being rehabilitated right now? Is the largest refinery in the world not about to start producing in Nigeria?
There's no way the removal would not have some immediate spike in prices whether you do 50% or 100% the eventual goal is far more beneficial to the overall economy and the greater number of Nigerians than the initial pain.
In any case, it wouldn't be worse than the currency change on which Obi and his supporters kept mute.

ThankUUJesus:
Obi will not be stupid to remove subsidy the way Thiefnibu did. don't compare them.

How exactly would he do it? This is not something you can spin, unless Obi was lying to Nigerians which we knew already anyway.
He and his supporters are not the most reliable people in the world given his numerous lies and the total devotion of his supporters to the lies.

Westerhoffe:
Wait, what are they using the babies for?
Because this is beyond just adopts…

Only God knows. This is completely evil.

Figger:
If u supported or took part in the 2012 subsidy removal mass protest under GEJ, u're nothing but evil and an enemy of Nigeria. Bigot

If you supported Obi's campaign and you are now calling on Nigerians to go on a strike because of subsidy removal you are the worst kind of hypocrites. Also an enemy of progress.

Interesting. But what happened to Amaechi? I thought he would go far in the party. I am disappointed he took his loss at the primary too hard.

CharleyBright:
Circumstances are different indeed.
What if it was Peter Obi or Atiku that is President and removing subsidy this shoddy way, will you be saying same?

By the way, does it occur to you that subsidy payment was provided in the budget to cover till June ending, why is Tinubu removing subsidy in May?
What happens to the billions earmarked as subsidy payment for June?
Whose pockets will that enter?
You are talking about corruption, what do u know about it.
You think Tinubu is not going to recoup the monies he spent on elections?
Continue to decieve yourselves.

Obviously, the Yorubas are now doing same thing defending Tinubu the way the Hausa/Fulanis were doing by defending Buhari at all cost.
Am sure the ibos will do same for Peter Obi.

Hausa, Yoruba and ibos are the real major problem of Nigeria.

What are Yoruba defending Tinubu for? For doing what all the presidential candidates promised to do if voted in?
For stopping what people like Ngozi Iweala, Akinwumi Adesina and Lamido Sanusi all described as a drain of the Nigerian economy?
If you supported Obi and you are now calling for a strike for subsidy removal does it mean it would have been OK if Obi did it?

LagosFirstSon:
Lobatan

Tinubu is mentally deranged for announcing fuel subsidy removal on his first day as presidiot without putting the right thing in place

He thinks this is Lagos politics that he can take decisions even in his sleep and it will be obeyed.

Tinubu must be made to understand that Lagos politics is different from federal politics.

He must revert to the old price then come to the round table for negotiation.

It was the right decision to make. If Obi did it you will probably be telling us right now that he got the directive straight from God. Bunch of hypocrites. Subsidy is gone, approved by Nigerians by voting Tinubu.

Beremx:
I support the strike 💯. Oshiomohole style of industrial action where the nation will be grounded

Grounded for what reason? They went mute when nobody could get the naira just a few months back. They are not being sincere because almost everyone agrees that the subsidy in not sustainable.

Revolution2022:
Peter Obi said he would train and give licences to those local youth who refine petroleum in the creek illegally.
If at all tinubu want to remove fuel subsidy,he should give licences to those local boys whom Buhari used the navy to destroyed their operations at the creek.He announced subsidy removal from the inauguration, making his supporters like Yarimo and others stranded at the Eagles square because they ran out of fuel because filling stations shut down operations after that announcement.

Even tinubu that removed subsidy is not buying fuel from his own pocket.Nigetians pay for his fuel,medicals,food and security from our taxes

What is the connection between subsidy and the illegal refineries?

Cloudflare:
Extremely daft reply. Perhaps you misread where my comment says the op should start by checking her boyfriends house and the house of those yahoo boys in their area.

Start by checking her boyfriends house because as you said and I quote "normally when a girl is declared missing, she's obviously hanging out with a guy in an hotel without telling her parents"

This is a very thoughtless comment.

Cloudflare:
What is wrong with you Nigerian girls ? Especially when the truth is being spoken? Dude, that guy is very correct because normally when a girl is declared missing, she's obviously hanging out with a guy in an hotel without telling her parents.

In my street here, a girl was declared missing few days ago and after her family searched everywhere for her, it was discovered that she elope with a guy and went to his house for more than 2 weeks. Na she use her legs come back after discovering she was pregnant. So what are you saying again? The OP should check her boyfriend's house or those yahoo boys around their area there. E sure me die say the girl dey collect better dick

Very dumb post: So, all those found dead were obviously in some hotel enjoying themselves?

richidinho:
Stop supporting rubbish

Government all over the world are subsidizing basic needs of the people

China provides world record subsidy on cotton for its people

USA subsidize oil, Agriculture, housing, automobiles and health care

What are our govt subsidizing for its people, nothing

The only product you are subsidizing is what you want to remove because you simply have no idea on how to tackle the corruption that has engulf the policy?

If you cant, abeg step down..we have people that can sanitize the system and bring normalcy

You can't eat your cake and still have it. You should listen to what real economists like Okonjo Iweala, Akinwumi Adesina and former governor of Central bank Sanusi have to say on this matter.
You are basically subsidizing the super rich not ordinary Nigerians.

Fuel subsidy is gone forever. There are times when tough decisions are imperative. On a scale of one to ten removing fuel subsidy is not even close to being the toughest.

indemnityy:
For my side, if you show ApC membership card in any transaction, be it transport or whatever, you will be giving automatic 50% discount. We are enjoying aPc government.

Nonsense, do you actually think you benefit from the subsidy? Most of the money is going into the pockets of a few Nigeria.

Manigie:
I hope these agbado eaters and that fellow who sang ' as e pain dem' last week will not be part of this strike because their cards allow them to buy fuel at a cheaper price......

If not for the wickedness in our leaders, how can you just take away subsidy without doing anything or putting things in place to alleviate the suffering? You just announced boom, as if you're running your home....

Subsidy is gone. It doesn't benefit most Nigerians. This is not about politics.

Acekidc4:
After all the Billions wey e don chop abi??

What billions?

Amusing to watch how some people are crying over this.
She is yanking their chains. Completely in control, I like her.

taylor88:
Tinubu should be crushed first


It irks my body whenever I read fighting corruption and Tinubu in same sentence


There’s no arm or department of government that Tinubu never stole or embezzled money

This Frog is 100% Criminal personified in all ramifications

And he’ll open mouth and say crush, man wey no get muscle to crush fresh egg

The loss is still very painful for this Obidient. You need to move on, this is democracy at work.

KunleAkingbadeh:
There seems to be a perversion in this judgement. It is more or less as if the girl was discharged & acquitted in this very complex murder case.

How can the defense Counsel & the Prosecution Counsel appealed to the court to tender justice with mercy on her own case in their respective Allocutus?

They said that she provided missing links to the hidden facts of the case and she took on a sober posture. How?

Is this not the same receptionist who earns over 100k monthly at her duty post?

Which 3-Star hotel in this part of the world, even in Lagos pays their receptionists over 100k monthly?

There seems to be a twist in her Judgement. All is well!

She didn't conspire to kill anyone. She probably did what she did under pressure from her employer. She's also a victim in this unfortunate situation.
The judgement is appropriate. The death sentence is also appropriate for the killers.
I hope this will encourage the police to prosecute more ritual killers. A good day for the rule of law, a good day for Nigerians.

Who cares what he said. He is not the president.

Justice is served. R.I.P to Timothy.

Gajagojo:
you are being sentimental
No he campaigned with that promise so no surprise
Obi said he would remove it ON HIS FIRST DAY IN OFFICE
Atiku said he will remove it in 100days

So we all knew this would happen

Now you are saying he should go and borrow money to fund subsidy

Do you know what interest rate Nigeria is paying now?

How is all the debt going to be repaid?
When a person dies we bury them it is not heartless it is humane

We are now at a point where we can still make the decision
Very soon it will be creditors making the decision

Don't mind that guy.

Obidient warriors are out to get him. Why was he rubbing salt on a fresh wound?

SwissMass:
Peter girigory Obi is already

He will be sworn in on Twitter.

Felabrity:
Random and unknown US politicians

Keyamo get levels pass these ones

Where is Biden, Kamala, the Secretary?

How is the inauguration going on Twitter for the Twitter president?

Elupee folks are depressed beyond words.

Dreamhighnow:
U still act like a typical tout. There is no loser in political field. Check political history. Who lost today wins tomorrow and the same wining party loses tomorrow

U don’t call someone a loser cos of politics. Do u know his personal state. Such a tout mindset

There are indeed losers. In fact, there are perpetual losers. Casualties of their own negative minds.

Dreamhighnow:
I told someone that the APC empty brains will soon ditch out posts to support the wasteful spending on this air Nigeria

Losers are often negative thinkers. Nothing is ever going to succeed in their warped minds.

Chekwume16:
There is nothing wrong in leasing an aircraft but Nigeria should not start her own airline with a leased aircraft. Common, that aircraft should be our pride and fly our flag around the world. For a start it should be a brand new aircraft . They've been on this stuff long enough to have brand new one now

Nonsense, it is a standard practice in the industry. You people just like to criticize everything even when you are not making any sense.

KingOfIsoko1:
The next administration taking over on monday will not necessarily make life better, but through the media, they will make you believe life is actually better even if you don’t have food in your stomach.

Just because you tried to force a mediocre candidate on Nigerians through propaganda does not mean everyone thread such a path.
I personally believe Tinubu will deliver on his promises.
