The issue is that the government cannot afford to subsidise fuel anymore.
The corruption around subsidy including the fuel price arbritrage shenanigans was a small price to pay when maintaining fuel subsidy was a priority to the government.

The real thing to be concerned about is that the government is so broke, its actually taking drastic steps to combat inefficiencies.

Omo. At this rate, if you can raise money to enter anywhere in Europe from Albania to Zurich, my brothers in Christ, it is time to move. This is only the first wave.

[color=royalblue]It's definitely time to run.

Truly, this one na "tospi"[/color]

Omo I am scared
I don't think people will wait till then
It's never been this so very bad

[color=royalblue]Story

Nothing go happen. Dem go wait well well.

Infact, Tinubu go win 2027.

Is it not Nigerians we are talking about?[/color]

iamoyindamola:
We return it to 250 per bag
Table water 100

[color=royalblue]Bottle water dey go 300 straight.

I miss the comforting words of OasisX [/color]

iamoyindamola:
And water business because people will trek
Let's collaborate and reduce the price of water
We will steal others customers while serving quality
The only thing is emilokan govt fit kill us with tax

[color=royalblue]Lagos dey buy pure water 2 for 50 naira and we dey complain

[/color]

GloriousGbola:
you know as well as i do that border controls will continue to fail
those directives by ppmc officials [no jerrycans in stations, no peddling by stations) also failed
any form of petrol subsidy is going to fail because multiple nigerians will turn it into a hustle

it is the same way we cannot fix oil theft

police, customs, frsc, army - they will simply collect their cut and send the smugglers on their way.

50% of the current problem is because it is more profitable to move fuel to the border rather than sell here. if i buy fuel from mobil at 620 and sell it in togo at 1300, it is good business for me. that is what diversion is.


as a 101% hustler, you know that all border controls are as effective as police checkpoints.

[color=royalblue]You are looking at it from one side.

As the naira continues to fall, it will always be profitable to sell in Togo. Even at 855, it is profitable.

So a poor man in Sokoto should buy fuel at 1500 per litre, because we don't want smugglers to carry fuel?

Is this really the best solution[/color]

iamoyindamola:
No it's because of his arrogance
The same deal gala are offering is almost as Chelsea own yet he refused

[color=royalblue]You dey waste time to dey argue this matter.

Chelsea offered a loan, he said No.
Then they offered a paycut, he said No

The same person is now going to Gala Sausage roll on loan with no obligation.



Confused agent[/color]

[color=royalblue]Bicycle Business should be lucrative now

Especially children bicycle.

No need to pay for School bus this term. Buy bicycle for the pikin make e ride[/color]

GloriousGbola:
if they dont reach the actual price, the smuggling will continue.

it is what it is, and it is 101% fked up

all this talk about banning jerrycans, stopping people with jerrycans in their cars, is about curbing smuggling.

quite literally they are doing diversion in stations.

black marketers come with 5 to 10 50 litre jerrycans even when there is no scarcity

[color=royalblue]So instead of tightening your borders, you'll prefer to suffocate your people to death.

Master class move, i must confess.

Are you also aware that it is the exchange rate that encourages the smuggling too?

So if you increase it to 1,000 naira, it is still profitable to buy in Nigeria and sell in Togo[/color]

[color=royalblue]NNPC as sole buyer of Dangote fuel looks fishy.

Why can't any marketer buy and sell?

Make everybody go through NNPC again?[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Simple! because Tinubu needs to award a contract to his friend Gilbert Chagoury.

[color=royalblue]Lagos Ibadan expressway is fixed

BlueRayDick:
Summary of everything u've written here is Emotions, Emotions and Emotions.

No two loans/deals are one and same. The fact that u are I are jumping into conclusions based on Sterling's situation is enough to show I are discussing a topic u don't have a full details about.

The real question is " who runs a club like Napoli owners do?" You give ur star player an improves contract in December 2023 and by August 2024 u want to bundle him out at all cost? Why? Because u feel u need to sell him to buy more players even if he's not interested in his suitors. Smh

It's funny how it's Nigerians that should.having his back that are his own antagonists

[color=royalblue]Osimhen said he does not want to play for Napoli.

It is even in the screenshot you posted.

He expressed his desire to leave, so why are you shocked with how they are treating him?

My issue with him is that he saw this coming, and kept on acting like he had many options.[/color]

Griffon:
Make Una free Osimhen. Someone I heard we were offering £60k per week, a crash from his €200+ earnings at Napoli.

If na you, you go take such slavery paycut?

[color=royalblue]It was 150k and a loan deal.

Why can't Napoli pay the rest?

Sterling wey go Arsenal, Chelsea is still paying part.

Maybe his agent should have insisted on no loan, and watch Sterling collect 350 and rot on the bench.
[/color]

WhoDeyHause:
In my opinion he should have taken the Saudi deal with a maximum three years, as much as wacko Jocko dey give us wahala for here, I don't support him reducing his salary to join us on a likely 7 year deal, he's a proven striker though overrated but he's still proven, and we also have don't have the premier league or champions league contending clout that we might say he would take the salary and join us, if he knew he wouldn't accept our offer he should have just gone to Saudi to cash out, in this time of flops even earning high, he can't slack, I just saw he asked Napoli to reduce his release clause to 75m before agreeing to move on loan, I still believe he'll get suitors if he cooks in turkey and ulokpa.

[color=royalblue]I am hearing the Gala deal is a rumour.

Let him train alone for the next 5 months, and let me see who will sign him in January and pay 285k per week.

I have been convincing myself that Benin juju no dey active, but this case has cleared my doubt.

This one no ordinary[/color]

WhoDeyHause:
They should have decided on what they wanted before the deadline day truly, hopefully this will teach them a lesson, na mostly wingers gala get though abi na egbon icardi wan bench Osimhen? E wan tear acl be that.

[color=royalblue]That is why i am asking if football is a side hustle for him.

You want money, you do anything to pursue it.

You want playtime, you do anything to pursue it.

How can a player who is in his prime choose to train alone for the next 6 months, just because he wants the same salary?[/color]

[color=royalblue]I don't think that if Haaland wanted to leave City, only one European club would be asking for his signature

Osimhen is in his prime, blah blah blah, and yet, na only one Conference league bound team dey find am. Is he really worth the hype we are giving him?

After them, na Saudi.

As at now, na Galatasaaray dey find loan wey dem no go pay salary.

Hmmmmm[/color]

WhoDeyHause:
There were some reports saying Al ahli backed out of the deal because they asked for extra 5m to be added after first agreeing a fee, he hadn't agreed to move yet though, he was probably waiting for us to increase the salary offer while Al ahli 's was the alternative but unfortunately them too wise, I don't know why some of these twitter influencers are acting as if somebody died, most na fake love sha, if he goes to turkey and destroys their league with at least 25 goals he would surely see suitors again by next year.

[color=royalblue]Do you know how many forwards are in Gala?

I don't even understand what he wants.

Napoli was never going to play him.

Do you want money? Go to Saudi
Do you want playtime? Go to Chelsea.

What is hard here? [/color]

Thazard:
I don't understand you guys.

Can you take a paycut to join a popular company?

[color=royalblue]The guy is more confused than the agent sef.

He refused to collect paycut. I understand

Oya join the employer that was willing to pay double. He still refused.

XGhost:
This was my brother last year along Shagamu Benin expressway, just before Ore, bike man shoots out of the bush into the road. He said the car somersaulted and ended up on the other lane going back to Shagamu. Thankfully everyone came out unhurt.

[color=royalblue]Bike men and animals are very common on highways.

Thank God for the life of your brother and those involved[/color]

raumdeuter:
With his vast experience with women, he surely knows his onions. He just needs to legalize and marry the 2nd wife

Theflint1:
The home is the first line of governance and administrative capacity... If Monday can't keep his home in order, it brings to question his ability to preside over the affairs of the state.

At least if you don't have a wife, show administrative capacity in other areas of your life, like business and politics... Still no show.

[color=royalblue]I have no issues if you want to defend Obaseki wife's statement.

Just don't say Oshiomole's own was bad.

If you call someone irresponsible, you ought to expect a response, abi?[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Make him family members carry am go rehab jare or they should carry him to one cele church or alfa

[color=royalblue]Na Naira marley be the only family wey we know na[/color]

[color=royalblue]KingAlabi.

Where you dey? [/color]

BlueRayDick:
All I'm saying is for NDLEA to arrest him, he must have committed a crime related to drugs which they must have concrete evidence.

Even if u have drug history and u have arrested in the past for it; there no place in the law that allows for you to be rearrested if u haven't committed another crime

[color=royalblue]NDLEA should just smuggle one wrap into Zino possession and use that to arrest him.

That guy needs to be saved [/color]

raumdeuter:
In gbas gbos, the aim is to deliver a knockout punch. There is nothing like disproportionate response

It's like Hamas sending missile to Israel and complaining that Israel responded with a bigger missile

[color=royalblue]True.

Saying Monday is unmarried and has kids is implying he is irresponsible.

Then you expect the other person to say "You dey craze"?

Oshiomole was way worse with his response, but i cannot fault him.[/color]

iamoyindamola:
Since last mouth na 1k for here
Sege they enjoy APC favour am well😂😂

[color=royalblue]I know someone who bought 1000 on Saturday night.

Sege dey buy 900, close mouth.

Chai. The heart of men is truly evil[/color]

BlueRayDick:
I really don't know how those who do interstate transport services manage to post profit in this period o. They are the real MVP's

[color=royalblue]Na why that GUO driver threaten him passengers with death

Maybe him don dey 1 week for queue. Only to reach his turn, carry passengers, use 2 hours to find fuel, and someone wants to report him?

The country is a mess, but let us manage it together. [/color]

BlueRayDick:
That's why I just laugh at people always blaming sellers/market men and women for hike in the prices of goods.

Anybody that has access to import documents, form M's , LC's , etc that are denominated in dollars and also convert to naira will understand that it will be almost impossible for prices of products to come down due to the devaluation of naira.

An item that was imported when dollar was around 700 last year, if u check its price in naira against this year's that dollar is now 1,600; u don't need anybody to explain how crazy things are now.

[color=royalblue]The fact that there is no stability in rates makes it worse

We are even going too far sef with importation

Ordinary transportation is not stable; Different prices every market day. Why won't it lead to inflation?

Tinubu till 2031[/color]

BlueRayDick:
They are both wrong, but this is not the first time Oshiomole talks like this.

You remember during his time as governor when he told that widow on national TV " Go and die" ?

I just feel there are some sensitive things a man should not be caught saying.

[color=royalblue]Of course, Oshiomole is notorious for capping carelessly.

I'll cut him some slack because his candidate was on his own when Obaseki came to find trouble.

Why say someone has no wife but he has children? Ahn Ahn.
[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Ajaero is busy flexing muscle with the police over police invite and what have u. Smh

[color=royalblue]Na why i no dey disturb myself with the country.

As cost of living dey increase, i go dey increase my own price to adjust.

Make all of us dey manage am like that.[/color]

Omo! Oshiomole dey talk o

[color=royalblue]Oshiomole went way below the belt.

But then, i blame the person that first dragged Monday's personal life first.

Why will you shade Monday by saying he has no wife? What has that got to do with governance?

Na Obaseki find trouble, but Oshiomole no try[/color]
