You didn’t know you were rich because you were just too young to notice anything. All you would have wanted was your video games and Cartoon Network.

He knew don't mind him. Dude's dad had a "brand" new Honda and had a driver but he did know they was rich

InoGetJoy:
The modular refineries will start work after the removal of the subsidy?

Isn't this the same thing this government did when they banned importation of rice? Any sensible human being would first make sure that local production is enough for consumption before banning the importation, but they banned it and right now, rice is so expensive.

They want to do same with fuel. They promised 1 refinery per year, but all we've been getting are excuses. What prevents them from making sure the refineries we have are working at maximum capacity for local refinement, and then building more refineries before removing subsidy? The modular refineries you're talking about, why aren't they operational and why aren't there more?
This government is a bunch of thieves, and they're doing everything possible to make life miserable for people

Exactly. We all know subsidy must go. Heck, na them dey against am that time. But why now when things are so difficult for the citizenry? How much is minimum wage? How will someone collecting 30k pay for 340 naira per litre price? 30k sef na only federal government workers and very few states? How many other states are implementing 30k minimum wage? These are the issues

backbencher:
The reason why people get mouth for GEJ time was because oil prices were at an all time high and that blinded a lot of people to the damage that subsides could do.

All they saw was oil is above 100 dollars a barrel, why can't we afford subsides? Meanwhile people like Noi and sls who were actually running the economy could see the damage, but people won't listen

Buhari has had oil prices consistently below 86 dollars a barrel and as low as 24 dollars a barrel at some points since he took power..so even though NLC may make some noise they know that this isn't the high revenue days of the GEJ adminand they know that there is some truth when the government says they cannot adequately fund subsides

He can increase it to 2000 naira per litre and loot as much as he and others can. We no go die. The highest that will happen is we join other comrades abroad and breathe a breath of fresh air

streetsoldier1:
They wont. Nigerians are not wise enough to vote out APC, they love their oppressors

You have sense.

backbencher:
You should ask your goverment, not me.

Democracy is hard work.

Good afternoon

Lmao. Trying to be smart by half. Keep shouting "subsidy removal", as if the money for the removal go dey your hands to use judiciously. That's how we heard "close borders", close borders now, beans don cost pass rice.

DoubleEngine007:
Heaven will not fall my gee. I want them to sell it @ 1k per litr. Those sai baba people must get sense. Maybe they will sell for them at #50 per ltre

As in eh my brother. These zombies think say na only wailers go suffer ... Buhari should show us more pepper abeg.

Basicend:
I tell you. I don't see Buhari surviving this. . Nigerians can't take this anymore.

We cant even eat a single meal right now and u want to tighten the screw on poverty. .

Be prepared guys. . Be prepared for anything.

Have you been in the country or you just arrived of recent? Who told you Nigerians can't take subsidy removal? Lmao. Buhari close border, we shout tire, e no change anything. Bag of rice was like 8k, now e be like e don reach 40k. Nigerians took it. The only thing Nigerians couldn't stomach was GEJ. Dude started the subsidy talk but the whole nation came out shouting and he bowed. Buhari is not GEJ. He can even increase it to 1500 naira per litre and no one would say or do shit

Six30:
Seems these guys didn't learn anything from #EndSARS

The kind of crisis that will follow after this fuel increment, may be that is when the country will finally burn down.

Which EndSars? The one they are making a caricature of or which? This govt no send anybody o. Come outside for protests, and they'll unapologetically send soldiers to gun people down

oldtruth:
The funniest thing is that, most or all zombies are jobless fools. Just check around

Lmao. Their idiotic president said they should do crypto

backbencher:
At the end of the day, the subsidy has to go.

My own is that it should have gone in 2012. By now, we would have been long since over the worst...plus back in 2012, government would have had far more money for palliatives for the first 2-3 years.

I leave with this quote on why keeping the subsidy is bad.



sauce; Fuel subsides in Nigeria: they are bad for the economy but the lifeblood of politicans. Originally published in the Conversation on November 4 2021

Summary

Nigeria, Africa’s biggest oil producer, has come under fire from the International Monetary Fund as well as World Bank for the heavy financial burden it carries in providing subsidies for fuel and kerosene. The criticism is rooted in the belief that the money could be better spent on other essential services, such as healthcare and education. The Conversation Africa’s Wale Fatade asks Steve Onyeiwu about fuel subsidies in Nigeria

This is posted for information and education

I am not a supporter of APC or PDP. I am a supporter of fuel subsidy removal and have been for 11 years.

Critical comments are welcome, but not abuse, and not rhetorical questions. And if you are angry with your governments, take it up with them. I have no link to government at all.

50 years after subsidy is removed, things won't still change. The money from subsidy removal will still be looted. What then?

whela:
Tired of hearing this threats....
You ppl should jus do your worst already.
We shall overcome.


Nigerians should get their pvc ready...

Which PVC? You're not reading the room? Tinubu will be president come 2023. PVC us useless

Kobicove:
If this APC government dares to increase the price of petrol so close to the general elections they will be 'destroyed' during the elections

Lmao. Na them get INEC

ZombiePUNISHER:
Will zombies and Yoruba Muslims buy at same rate?...


well then it's okay, let's go there

LoL. You're correct o. These zombies think say na only wailers go suffer

backbencher:
She admitted in her writeup that she cheated and that's why she got expelled

No mind am

AlhajiBitcoin:
The girl was expelled because she doesn't sort or sleep with lecturers.

The amount of corruption in the Nigerian system is mind blowing.

No be exam hall wey I dey see people copy from textbooks after paying lecturer b4 the paper.

She told you she was expelled because she cheated but you're saying a different thing. It's like you want people to cheat without getting caught. Na wa o

AlhajiBitcoin:
They expelled you because you are not the sorting type or the type that gives money or sleep with lecturers.

I observed something in the university. There are students that copy each other and read from books inside the exam hall and the invigilator/lecturer looks away.

One day, I said, let me try it. Unknown to me, these people have PAID THE LECTURER before the exams in other to allow them to indulge in malpractice.

Nawa, I got caught. Only one diagram on a piece of paper, my paper was cancelled. Anyway God saved me. The HOD was my man. I was allowed to rewrite the following year and got only an E for a paper I should get an A or B. That was my only carryover in 5 years.

Lesson: Don't do things because you see others doing it. So many waters pass under the bridge.

See what you're saying abeg. They expelled her because she cheated. Stop painting a different picture

activity9:
Congratulations dear.
I had similar issue in FUTO. Was falsely accused of exam misconduct and subsequently withdrawn from school after my 200L, I came back after one year and proved them wrong by bagging a first Class in EEE.

Explain the "falsely accused"?

backbencher:
Agriculture is far far more than that.

There is also research into improving crop yields, making crops grow on barren land, soil improvement, fighting crop pests, and so on

Also, there is the animal science arm of it...improving animal yields, including meat , eggs, and dairy products...then there is leather and suchlike.

Many of the architects of the Green Revolution were agriculturalists.They are the reason why many of you can eat better than yer ancestors did.

Our ancestors ate better

vickydevoka:
I school in north and east. It is more easier to make first class in unn than atbu or unijos. Mind u I be Igbo boy.

Unijos talk na true. If you made a first class in Unijos, you can confidently make it anywhere else

Tobidarker02:
Is this supposed to be a moral lesson??

No mind am

DropsMic:
Adults don't change. know this and know peace.

Once a cheat, always a cheat. Congratulations to her tho

So it's possible she cheated her way to first class? I agree

IKBARUTEN11:
Her write ups looks very decent
No doubts, she made the first class with her brain not with her pussy

Big congrats to her

First class isn't about speaking good English.

Tablechair:
lol.. really??

Free her

clarocuzioo:
Some people are pathetically delusional. The statement "YOU CANNOT BE IN LAGOS AND DECIDE ZONING FOR APC" should have given people Insight of what to expect.

Let's cross our fingers watch, more surprises will spring up in coming months.

That statement na statement of fear o bros. The cabal are fighting tooth and nail to prevent Tinubu but even they know it's a fight that they might lose

Penguin2:
My own na make Tinubu and his urchins no go drink rat poison like one of their ancestors when BAT refuses to fly in 2023.

News have leaked already boss. Tinubu is contesting.

DubaiLandLord1:
Yes

The president of the FRN is in charge on the APC.

Anything GMB says in the APC, no Governor can go against it, even the Governors combine.

You should have understand how powerful a president is after seeing what happened between GEJ and some governors like Amechi, kwankwaso etc

See the way GEJ outmuscle everybody in the APC and made sure he got the presidential ticket. The likes of Atiku were sent packing.
Never underestimate how powerful a Nigerian president is.

LoL. Let Buhari veto direct primaries bill, then you'd know he's not the all in all in APC

BigSarah:
Tinubu is business as usual, same as atiku or any other candidate presumed as Frontline..
Except Osibanjo, Osinbanjo represents continuity of Buhari's administration (so that's even worse)

Only sensible person in this thread

caracas:
Can you be more realistic pls
How will tinubu defeat a kwankwaso or tanbuwal in a federal election.Using the 6 regions tell us how he stands a Chance...
Cos I know he will lose the se, ss ne, nw nc might be 50 50......

2023 is around the corner. Lemme share this so I'd remind you
