People that lives in a glass house do not throw stones consider the other people

gpmorgan:
Where is NNPC sourcing their own dollar. CBN OR Parallel market? If CBN then y are they selling at same price 135 to N145 with individuals that got dollars at black market? Even some nnpc fuel refined locally. Why selling at high price again.

omenka:
This isn't right.

Let me bare an unbiased opinion about this since it appears the wailers are simply too dumb to engage on in any constructive and intelligent argument- all I've been hearing are insults and "apologise to Jonathan".

No Wailer has been able to ask one a very IMPORTANT question regarding one VERY OBVIOUS ANOMALY surrounding this whole "subsidy removal/deregulation" stuff, and that question is: if the government had earlier claimed that they subsidise petrol by about N17 per litre, then why on earth isn't fuel selling for approximately N103 per litre ( ie 86+17) as against N145 or the N120 allegedly being proposed now??

Wailers, make una try get small sense so una go fit put us, and perhaps, the government, on our toes. Throwing insults around and getting tens of likes wouldn't get you lot anywhere.

Government needs to tell us why it is 145 and not 103.

Is Jonathan a military leader that manipulated the award of oil wells? The way you guys reason is very poor and shallow. Maybe those very rich northerners got their wealth from the sale of cattle and rice. Don't you know that many of them have some level of higher percentage in those oil wells. While very few southerners can manage the little let over. I am very sure you are one of those northerners benefiting from southern Nigeria oil and next is to come up with grazing routes. Ole

Do u know a project they built worth half a billion naira is already falling apart and we keep altering their design to keep it running. If u are fond of spreading ur legs and talking nonsense I am out on the field bursting my arse on the job everyday so don't u come sermonising me on nairaland nonsense

"The oil price is now lower in money terms than it was in January 1974, immediately after the first oil shock. Not only that, it is lower than at any stage since. The most striking thing is the way the price on the Arab light measure has halved since the autumn. Last October it was over $19 a barrel: last week it was below $9 a barrel. If the oil price had doubled, think what a story that would have been. But it has halved, and most of us have hardly noticed. Remember, too, that in real terms the oil price is lower than it was before the first oil crisis".

bloodyBLOGGER:
I've been studying your posts on NL and have come to the conclusion that you are not politically enlightened to make comments.

How can you say the SW has been taking rammings from the north when in fact the SE has actually been the one aligning with the north from independence.

Remember it was azikiwe that connived with the north to Amalgamate Nigeria. Also, ekwueme and shagari alliance and those other times you aligned with the north while the SW played opposition. The SW just stopped opposition when they aligned with the north to produce buhari.

As for your talk of SS being formally with the SE in the old Eastern region, that shouldn't give you guys the excuse of tagging them along all the time. You ought to stand alone like the SW who had the Midwest under them before. I cant remember them ever making statements like SW/Midwest.

Next time when Nigerians here Change they will listen carefully to know if it is Chain or Change.

I think its time we empower and license illegal refineries while being checkmated by the NNPC on its quality and distribution, that is the only way to get the price of pms/diesel and all others to its lowest in the shortest period of time.

Reasons:

These refineries which we have always heard have been in business without importing refined crude and all its shipping protocols.
These refineries account for thousands of litres which we consume on daily basis.
The refinery proceeds circulates within the country
These refineries would create jobs, New business opportunity on all aspects
These refineries can buy Nigerian Crude oil with our Naira
The Exchange rate of dollar does not impact on these refineries (heavily)
These refineries would pull down the price of pms in a matter of weeks
The price of pms would even go lower when the big guns eventually notice no one is interested in imported pms at 145
These refineries have very low cost of logistics
These refineries would assist the NNPC refineries that have refused to work optimally
These refineries would spring up in thousand in their small scale production
These refineries have been working with our current state of infrastructure and light issues but have survived
This area can be harnessed to reduce the impact on the already ailing masses
These refineries can sell its fuel to the Tank farms or even directly to gas stations

The country can determine the price to sell to Citizens and foreigners in other to alleviate suffering

we have always heard of illegal refineries, it is a ready market waiting to be harnessed..

eg... Oil firms would be forced to setup refineries locally when demand for imported pms is lowest, thereby bringing in competition as well and lowest prices, it is not like the telecom that requires billions of Naira for small production, if not how come we have them in the creeks of major region breaking pipelines and refining.[b][/b]

SonOfEl:
You call biafran agitators "thugs, anarchists and misguided entities"? If so, who then are the citizens?

Your Nigeria reeks of nepotism, prebendalism, and such likes, how then would the voice of the common man be heard? Its funny you are comparing Nigeria with civilized societies like Scotland and co. Nigeria is a political failure. The system here does not work, and its corruption has even infected Igbo politicians, For Biafra to return to civility, the Nigerian system of things MUST BE AMPUTATED FROM BIAFRA. Simple.

By Felix Onuah

ABUJA, Nigeria (Reuters) - The Nigerian army said on Monday it had arrested members of a militant group which has claimed responsibility for a wave of attacks on pipelines in the restive Delta region.

The detainees were thought to be part of the Niger Delta Avengers, it said, a movement blamed for assaults on oil infrastructure that have helped cut Nigeria's output to 1.65 million barrels a day from 2.2 million at the start of the year.

The Avengers, who say they are fighting for a greater share of oil profits, an end to pollution and independence for the swampy southern region, last week warned oil firms to leave before the end of the month.

"This is to confirm the arrest of some suspected members of Niger Delta Avengers," in connection with attacks on Chevron oil facilities, army spokesman Rabe Abubakar said. He did not say how many were detained or when they were arrested.

Nigeria has moved in army reinforcements to hunt the militants but British Foreign Minister Philip Hammond said on Saturday President Muhammadu Buhari needed to the deal with the root causes of the conflict because a military confrontation could end in "disaster".

Crude sales from the Delta account for 70 percent of national income in Africa's biggest economy but residents, some of whom sympathize with the militants, have long complained of poverty.

Buhari has extended an amnesty deal signed with militants in 2009 that stepped up funding for the region. But he has cut funding for the deal and canceled contracts to former militants to protect the pipelines they used to attack.

Govt deny avengers their daily income. The wise and inconsiderate oil magnates are sad because their investments will no longer germinate when the cookies crumble.


Get this Mr.
The avengers do not engage in kidnapping or murder. They're are after the tools sip $ to the north and leave burnt tar that pollutes their arable lands and poison their waters. I don't think you've been to these sites.


I do not support millitancy, I do not support corruption either. I do not support northerners controlling southern reserves, yet there is poverty in the north.

sunnyb0b0:
A little reading can save you some embarrassment. Oil sold below $9 per barrel in Oct 2008 and was $9 when OBJ came in. O j himself even confirmed that recently

"When I assumed office in 1999, I inherited $3.7 billion in reserve, while Buhari met $30 billion, almost 10 times of what I met then, and the price of oil then was $9. When it got to $20, I was dancing".

Sunnyb0b0,
See my brother hunger is a Dangerous weapon. He is using it perfectly and Its working for him.
Those frivolities u are celebrating as philantrophic gestures how did he accumulate those wealth? he used his people, He expossed them to more hardship and bitterness. Pls take ur time and interview any elder in the community.
Tompolo is far richer than the incumbent state governor. whatever he has done is absolutely nothing to wat he has gotten by using his people as Shield

sunnyb0b0:
Obasanjo met the foreign reserve at $3.5bn, oil price at $9 and a foreign debt of $32bn.

Buhari met the foreign reserve at $30bn, oil price at $40 and foreign debt of about $8bn.

So, what are you guys on about?

Lolzzzz.... Hmmmmm nice 1 but u just exposed ur dumb brain since u can't point out any correction from my assertion but choose to speak like a comedian.... I'll take your words for comic relief #you are welcome to make me laff d more

TheArchangel:
Your usual lengthy write-ups won't work now. The boys has gone back to the creeks, Internet's lengthy argument and counterarguments, attacks on persons and one sided political opinions are now a waste of time.
They are even sophisticated enough to have a website...visit them at nigerdeltaavengers.com or whatever to vomit your venoms and spare the rest of us your usual bitter tirades.
