patrickmuf:
Government is trying to access more money to carry out development projects so, I don't see how moving from one subsidy regime to another will help...

I support the clamor for the government to cut cost at all levels and I mean reasonable cost. When we talk about palliative for the poor, I wonder what data we use to arrive at who is poor or who is rich in Nigeria. If your subsidize food items, you will only be taking money for subsidy from fuel to pay for food just same thing as subsidizing local transport because even the rich will also access this services or how do you determine who benefits from it or not? Who do you consider as poor in Nigeria?

I support those who say the government should ensure our borders are not porous to avoid desperate Nigerians diverting PMS to neighboring countries.

If we secure our borders and tackle oil theft with sincerity, then we can make progress by ensuring our refineries are functional (At least 60% output should do).

If we successfully stop oil theft then we can start thinking of selling crude to Dangote at a reduced cost in exchange for cheaper PMS. The millions of barrels stolen can serve the masses.

[color=royalblue]I clearly typed 3 months there. Did you not see it? Did I say they should do it forever?

And which one is we cannot define who is rich and poor in Nigeria?

Just last year, the same FG said 133 million are living in poverty. So what other stringent measure do you need to classify a poor Nigerian, when for every 3 you pick, one is poor?

How long do you think a man earning 30k a month would keep up to his job, before he resorts to crime, since his cost of living has skyrocketed on a budget of 30k?

All your solutions has no relation to to what i typed. You can stop oil theft and wait for Dangote to serve millions, while providing little reliefs here and there for people who are poor.

Octopusssy:
I avoid bottled water because typhoid. They sell bottled poison in those streets

afrodoc2:
There were producing fake bottled water even before i left Naija over a decade ago.

[color=royalblue]I doubt if i drink the genuine ones, especially when i buy known brands outside Lagos.

I just cover my water with Psalms 23 and drink [/color]

[color=royalblue]Raumdeuter, you were asking if bottled water has fake ones.

This one na small scale producer oh[/color]

OasisX:
.....I think PBAT shares same view as you on tax waivers. He said it many times during campaign and I strongly believe he is gonna work on it.

On Foodstuff, he also has it in his manifesto, setting up commodity board, I guess they'll be responsible for price control via subsidy [though I hope not].

I agree with your your submission on power as well. In a nutshell, what you are asking for is cushioning effects of subsidy removal through tax waivers at critical sectors, I agree with you 100%.

[color=royalblue]Nigerians are suffering..

Even when i see people discuss about the removal, i do not contribute, because my view isnt theirs, but then i can relate.

There are people earning 20k a month...Yes, Twenty thousand naira for 30 days.

How is that person supposed to survive with the price of almost every commodity he needs, doubling or tripling?

I know you are at war with Obidients, but please, don't imagine life starts and ends with people on this thread.

Anything Tinubu can do from Monday sef is needed.

People are seriously suffering[/color]

OasisX:
.......and can you suggest palliative measures that you think will help?

[color=royalblue]The government can begin to give companies and industries some percentage of tax waivers, and that percentage must reflect in the salaries of their workers

The government can subsidise major food items from the wholesaling phase, so that people will have some relief as the reality of no subsidy progresses.

Even Power, they can give some tax waivers so that the consumers can see lesser charges of their bills. If i will pay 600 for petrol, I'll be glad to see that my NEPA bill isn't high, or i can now buy more units with my urgent 2k

These can be done for 3 months, or even 6, depending on the nation's coffers.

And probably there are other sectors they can help reduce the burden for a while[/color]

OasisX:
.....seem you missed the part where I called for salary increment for civil servants? Palliatives seem to me another version of subsidy?

Palliatives in what sense by the way? Subsidizing Transportation? I do not expect prices of Foodstuff to be affected because trucks run on diesel.

It may sound insensitive but assuming I am not empathetic to plight of average Nigerians is wrong. Any form of subsidy should be crushed. We shouldn't move from one subsidy to another, that's the main reason I do not buy palliatives stuff.

Palliatives will beget corruption as it was evident during EndSars. Thank you once again for the prayer, I do not doubt the sincerity.

[color=royalblue]So everybody in the villages have trucks that run on diesel to transport their goods to the Market, where buyers use trucks to bring it it Lagos?

The woman who buys it at Mile 12, will go and look for Diesel truck to carry it from there to the street where she sells the tomatoes? Listen to yourself, brah.

And out of 200 million, how many are civil servants? So the rest should go and die because OasisX doesn't want any form of palliatives?

I strongly believe you are abroad. You cannot be here, seeing the groanings of people, and come back here to type "fûcking palliatives"[/color]

Segedinho:
It isn't about humanity anymore but politics where APC is always right and any other criticism should go fvck themselves.

Fuel presently is the most useful commodity in everything we do in Nigeria...one would expect the FG to be very sensitive in dealing with it.......

Removal of subsidy is good but must not be hurriedly removed without proper plan...........no security of food..no electricity....nothing just nothing.


What does an average Nigerian who pays tax benefit from d damn country apart from subsidised fuel?

[color=royalblue]Nobody is out of place if they demand palliatives to cushion the effect.

I support the removal, but then i try to be sympathetic to the plight of people. Because you can afford 600/litre and its effects does not mean millions can.

How can you say Tinubu should not provide any pallative? Are you in everybody's pocket and household?

I sincerely meant my prayer for him, because it is easier to be insensitive from a position of abundance.

When Oshiomole told that woman to Go and die, it was easy to say it because he was a governor.

If he was a Mai Ruwa or he was pushing wheelbarrow, he would not be insensitive[/color]

Segedinho:
It is always cruise when you are rich and people beneath you are suffering....

There wasn't any mistake when Oshiomole told a poor widow to go and die........

It is as it is.........

[color=royalblue]That has to be the height of insensitivity, just because you want to win an argument

I support the removal. Even before now, I wanted it removed. But I would never say the government should not provide palliatives to cushion the effect. What kind of statement is that?

Because one can afford it doesn't mean millions of Nigerians can

I started leaving home around 9am this week, and i see students trekking distances at that time, just because the 200 naira transport is no longer 200 again.

Palliative is fcking to you because you dey Dubai ba?[/color]

OasisX:


.....and no fuckin palliative should be introduced to cushioning any fuckin thing, except salary increment for civil servants.

[color=royalblue]This is a very insensitive thing to say, as a human being

My prayer is that God Almighty will not put you in a position where you will have to suffer as Nigerians are suffering now.

And before you type any long explanation, i support the removal. I have always said it here before now.[/color]

[color=royalblue]I am on Season 3, and it looks like I'm tired

It's okay sha.[/color]

[color=royalblue]From 1999, no president has been better than his predecessor.

Ebukacute, please advise [/color]

OasisX:


Did they bid for it all?

[color=royalblue]I don't know oh.

This Ethiopian partnership may not add anything tangible to the country

The country just owns 5%.

Looks more like Ethiopian airline is rebranding their office to Nigeria Air.[/color]

[color=royalblue]Why dem no sign the partnership with Air Peace?

Everytime, na to carry our opportunity go give foreigners
[/color]

raumdeuter:
That is what Soludo is doing too

[color=royalblue]Yes naa

Makes perfect sense.

The peace in the SE henceforth would be deafening [/color]

raumdeuter:
If you are in Soludos shoes as the governor of Anambra with the killings continuing while Obi the sponsor has refused to tame the boys

what will you do or what steps will you take

[color=royalblue]Go on my knees and beg for Kanu to be released.

That's exactly what I'll do! [/color]

BlueRayDick:
Egbon believes Soludo has magical powers which he will use to command Kanu and IPOB to stop the killings once he's released.(Something Peter Obi has refused to do all these while)

[color=royalblue]If the killings started after he was detained, I get the point

This was a man that was a tribal bigot. His speeches of hatred are all over Facebook and Twitter. Nigerians had to beg Twitter to delete his account. He ran a radio where hate speeches and killings were circulated daily.

He did all these while he was free.

Today, he should be released for peace in the SE?

The question i want to ask the co-guarantors is if there was peace when he was free.

[/color]

Emaprince:
Who is their prospective igbo leader? You believe any of the bullocks they spew?

When it's time for soludo to contest, that's when you will know that those people are snakes.

You think they will support him?

[color=royalblue]That one na only dem fit answer am

[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Na egbon dey decide who dey sponsor IPOB (Peter Obi) and those who are warming towards IPOB/Kanu for peace to reign(Soludo)

[color=royalblue]Everybody get him own version of how to "Love" a country

Kanu was a free man, dishing out hateful statements and encouraging killings in the SE. That same 2017, Kanu was a free man and according to Dayo, policemen were killed because of him

He was arrested and detained.

Today, the same man should be released for peace to reign in the SE.

Releasing him now makes sense because their MCM wants to stand as guarantor
[/color]

BlueRayDick:
I’m sure u saw prospa’s screenshot up there where Tinubu told us all not to condemn IPOB but listen to them.

That was 2017 when IPOB were killing policemen and innocent residents . I guess Tinubu does not fit ur narrative of IPOB sponsors/sympathizers

[color=royalblue]

Rest, my Lord!![/color]

raumdeuter:
IPOB have always been killing, they have been attacking policemen since and before 2017 when Obi was absolving them of their crimes and said they are not terrorists. People who killed Nigerian police officers are not terorists

Obi is one of the worst human beings alive, He is indeed a rat

[color=royalblue]Yes sir!

After Hitler, na Obi..

[/color]

raumdeuter:
You asked for efforts SOludo has been making and I showed you a link where IPOB claimed his Ebubeagu has been killing IPOB.

https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/09/22/ipob-dares-soludo-accuses-him-of-secretly-eliminating-members/

[color=royalblue]That is not what I asked you.

You may want to check again [/color]

OasisX:
Buhari no dey hear words and everyone already knows that. What is happening in Anambra is impeding Soludo plans and policies. He has tried all options to no avail. Used traditional leaders, religious Leaders, Threats yet nothing worked.

If releasing Nnamdi Kanu is only option that can bring peace to the state and the region at large, why not?!

I believe I rarely made Comments on Nnamdi Kanu on this board and others. All I want is peace in the Region, so Soludo can get his plans and policies work for good of the people.

[color=royalblue]You trolled Obi here for defending IPOB in 2017. These killings were not even there, then

In 2023, you are defending Soludo for defending IPOB and wanting a proscribed terrorist group leader to be released.

If you wanted peace, you will know that before Buhari arrested Kanu, they were already killing mercilessly.

So, what kind of peace do you want? [/color]

raumdeuter:
This is IPOB accusing Soludo of empowering Ebubeagu to eliminate IPOB members

https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/09/22/ipob-dares-soludo-accuses-him-of-secretly-eliminating-members/

[color=royalblue]Is this what i asked of you, sir?
