This is correct.
The foundation of the fuel problem of today was laid by President Yar'adua when he reversed the sale of the refineries in 2007. If private investors had been allowed to run those refineries, they'd be working now.
It's a problem of many years, not just this government.
However, this suffering must not go to waste. People must see more judicious use of govt. money else, another protest will surface.

SOCIALISM IS NIGERIA'S PROBLEM!!.
Petrol is subsidized,
Education is subsidized
Rail transportation is subsidized,
Healthcare is subsidized
Importation has been subsidized by cheap dollars for many years until recently.
Even our economy is subsidized by Oil.

Subsidy distorts markets, thats why subsidized sectors won't function properly.

Biodun556:
Whether it is 1000 or 857 naira per liter, it calls for celebration. At least subsidy or landing cost matter has come to an end. And government should not have excuses again for poor performance, pilling up of debts.

nairalanda1:


Someone has spoken the cold hard truth.

Etiher we sell fuel above the landing cost, or we will continue to feed the smugglers free money and free cash.

And before you come and start shouting 'Why can't government stop the smugglers...ask the Saudis, Venezuelans, Angolans, Iranians and especially Libya why they can't stop smuggling too? Are they run by Nigerian leaders?

I mean, I buy fuel at below N700 and then cross the border and sell that thing at N1400 or more. TELL ME, won't you be able to come home , bribe the customs men and women, and police, and civil defence, AND STILL MAKE A FAKKING PROFIT.


Yet at the end, most Nigerians say we should keep fuel below the landing cost because ;poverty. Yet these people won't do the same for their businesses because.....poverty.

If you want to end smuggling, etc, etc....STOP KEEPING SUBSIDY, AND FACE THE EFFING REALITY.

And if you think this makes me an APC supporter, you are either mad, or sick in the head.




See the matured comment someone who is an adult made. He is so adult in this comment.

People are talking economics, and all he can think about is erm.,....cucumbers.

The master strategist has done it again, he made them accept 70k by reducing the review period from 5 to 3 years.


The only thing remaining now is to reduce inflation and cost of governance, then, no JuPeter can stop him in 2027

Today, Lagos Rapid Response Squad (RRS) in conjunction with Lagos Neighbourhood Safety Agency (LNSA) embarked on a convoy patrol of some areas in the metropolis to reassure Lagosians of the safety of their lives and property.

The exercise, which was in line with the directives of the Lagos Commissioner of Police, CP Adegoke Fayoade, was led by the Commander, Rapid Response Squad (RRS), CSP Shola Jejeloye.

Areas covered by the team were Ikeja, Ojota, Third Mainland Bridge, Obalende, VI, Lekki, Apongbon, Ijora, Costain, Stadium, Ogunlana Drive, Itire, Ojuelegba, Palmgroove, Maryland etc.

CSP Jejeloye while addressing the men noted that the convoy patrol was meant to promote visibility policing and to keep the men at alert for emergencies.

He added that the exercise would be held regularly to keep the men in readiness for action.

I hate PDP based post like this.

Go to America and ask how much 1 tuber of yam cost, You people expect APC to fix 16 years of corruption from PDP because they're God?

Truly the youths of this new generation are lazy and USELESS

We understand that some individuals may be concerned about medical expenses, but they need not worry as it is a public health concern. Treatment, including diagnosis, medications, and admission, is provided free of charge at all public government-owned hospitals and primary healthcare centres. No one will be asked for payment. While hospitalisation may not be necessary for everyone, we understand the economic challenges people face, which may deter them from seeking medical care.


If you think Education is expensive you will later realize that the cost of ignorance may be your life. Cholera is so easy and cheap to treat but most folks are ignorant of how to prevent it and its onset symptoms so they don't present themselves for treatment soon enough.

Other states should join Lagos State in creating awareness especially with mass media campaigns in Yoruba Language.

Boil your water very well before you drink it or cook with it and if you must store the boiled water, store in clean containers while it's still very hot and cover to allow it cool overtime. Use only containers sterilized with boiled water to take water from the stored clean water and always keep sealed and store in clean environment. Wash your hands frequently especially after using the rest room.

The truth is coming out small small.

The truth we have always known and talked about but instead to accept the truth, they are hating us.

Meanwhile, part of the actual incident that resulted and triggered #endsars was agulu sars killings under the watch and order of Peter Obi as a governor of Anambra but guess what? The lamba master ran to get about seven lawyers to get a court order not to appear at the Anambra State SARS panel. This is the same man some people think they can use gbajue to smuggle into Aso Rock.

seunmsg:
Not a bad response. Anybody can trip and fall at anytime so it’s no big deal. We’ve seen several world leaders trip and fall so it’s nothing. In fact, it goes to show that our leaders are just humans like the rest of us.

Dannyset:


It's obvious you don't know a thing or you just feel like ranting this morning as you all always do.

Are you saying petrol is not being smuggled out of the country when it was being subsidized? 🤣😂🤣 You must be one hell of a joker. The whole of our borders were filled with fuel smuggling business. Go and find out why there was a protest in Niger when the subsidy was removed so to speak.

What most of you don't know is that, no matter what, fuel will be smuggled out of Nigeria to Benin and Niger because it is officially more expensive in those countries even if it is sold for 5k here.

It is just unfortunate that our customs are almost useless and we also have lots of unmanned and illegal borders.

Thank God. Going on strike again is absolutely senseless. Glad to see that common sense has prevailed.

NLC of propaganda.

TimeManager:
What consequences?, pls stop joking!. FG can pay any amount but can your state governors and private employers able to pay?. Can Ajaero pay his driver 494k?. If Labour is not being careful, government will be forced to retrench workers and private employers lay off their staff and nothing labour can do about it.

Access Bank returned her money but the feedback they are giving me is Sorry for loss of funds even after helping them expose the defective site.

Seun and his nlfpmod was quick to delete the Post so that my efforts to recover my money is stalled. But someone who had been missing in action just came online, cried and got her refund and even compensations.

Business is business anyways. They cashed out and locked me out. It doesn't pay being a good Nigerian.
