He is very smart. I think his plan was N97, but he set the fuel price at N140 which is unaceptable. Now, he cut the price from N140 to N97 and how generous he is. The plan was to make people tired and feel the price is OK.
I think the plan is successful.


@Jake, born in the month of march; 1977-Thread title is your "If I were Mr. President" :your Advice To GEJ

My advice is, nigerians are not pushover as much as you might think.

I dont know why ikoy,VI,Lekki have no protesters. Even I could buy food and necessities in ParkNshop VI.
The road is free and those area became much more pleasant to hang around.

Nigeria is the land of opportunities, and just like a hidden pearl in mud.
Your country has a lot of potential. I believe this country should have been better than now already.
I experiencing corruption often, especialy when I am in airport, sombody approaches me and
ask if I dont wanna be checked my luggage and stand in line by N5000.
If I paid him money, all I have to do is just sit on the airport chair and wait him. A few minutes later
he came with my ticket and claim check. It is awefully handy but feel sorry those people standing in line for long time.
And he asks me again, if I paid N5000 more, I dont have to hustle with custome officers. No matter what my visa staus is
doesn't matter. Even though I got already expired visa, all I have to do is to prepare Naira(Dollar is much appreciated)
but actually I abide by the law and never take advantage of the visa thing but sometimes I use 'the fast-ticketing thing'.
But soon I confront 'the dash-begging' officers, I pass throguh the detector. They ask money directly even there is
nothing wrong with me and try to come up with something wrong with my carry-on luggage and me. One time, I literally
didn have a single penny, but they search me from top to bottom(even my inside of shoes) not to mention of luggage.
They even searched the pocket of pants inside luggage. And before boarding, one more luggage checking by emirates.
They ask me 'give me somting','chop-chop'. And the long journey of airport is fianlised after being frisked my body by
emirates guy(I prefer a woman) with their own hands.
And the similar thing comes when I arrived MMIA. Every time I get out of the MMIA with my luggage, the officers catch
me and ask money or else.
But I still like nigeria and nigerians, other than that no bad memories, the reckless driving and terrible traffic jam is
what I get used to already.
Anyway, I will be with you until the perol price get back to normal.

I dont see a single protestor in Ikoy, VI and Lekki. Those place is just peaceful and calm.
Why is it? From loosk of the airport above, is the MMIA open? and Exodus availible?
I think the rich and the big man sensed what would happen in this country in advance
and trying to evacuate. That is the way cookie crumbles.
