MEEVEET:
Cost of bringing in petrol is around 1200
Distribution us around 100

So petrol should sale for 1350 to 1400 minimum

Now that dangote is producing and there is no cost of bringing in the petrol, how much should petrol cost?

This "cost of bringing in petrol" who determines it?

Standing5:
under a largely de-regionalized CBN.

1. the banking and financial sector, are they under private control or public control as is the case of army, customs, immigration that you mentioned?

2. what is special about the education and health sectors that you are alive?

3. are the army, customs, immigration dead?

4. tinubu is from the south. how alive is nigeria at the moment?

dheilaw1:
Obidense go cry tire today

you that is not "obidense", how much are you buying fuel?

CyrusVI:
The guy is one of the few world leaders i would like to model my life after

I heard you cant mock him via the Social Media, neither can u attack him at all

XI Jinping, My Hero. I like Dictators and Autocrats. I would like to be one


Gidgiddy and those Obidient group were telling us Tinubu isnt well-rated in the International community...

How come Jinping is willing to seal deals with him

like the deals he "sealed" in India when he "hit the ground running".

if tinubu is so special, how come you overlooked him but chose Xi Jinping as your role model?

why cant you model your life after tinubu?

Standing5:
Any parastatal hausas and fulani dominate is gone for good. Check the army, customs, immigration, agric. It is same pattern. Whatever favours them personally is the right thing to do and that what becomes the law or norm. See how they use sharia today.
The banking and financial sector can still survive because they don't dominate that. Education and health are alive not because of govt funding but reasonable southerners bring a their token of commonsensical judgement and public work wthics to those sectors.

the banking and financial sector, are they under private control or public control as is the case of army, customs, immigration that you mentioned?

what is special about the education and health sectors that you are alive?

is army, customs, immigration dead?

tinubu is from the south. how alive is nigeria at the moment?

Throwback:
Very valid question.

Where is government for the Sake of Allah.

government is looking for protesters

chopnaira:
You just closed you eyes to the the alleged money laundering, cybercrime, and unlawfully obtaining, retaining and disseminating classified secret documents.

The case is in court for him to defend himself. During Abacha era, he would have been hung or shot by Sergeant Rogers.

What are the "classified documents"?

How much did he launder?

What are the cybercrimes?

BabaO2:
Throwing personnel and weaponry against bandits and bokoharam terrorists is not the solution. If sattelite and other monitoring devices is going to cost X billions of dollars, why cant we invest in it?

who is the "we"?

what makes you think its the unavailability of satellite and other monitoring devices that is the reason for the failure of the government and its security agencies to permanently deal with bandits and BH?

tutudesz:
Sokoto attack was some days back, they should solve others first

solve? are you actually expecting them to solve anything?

tutudesz:
Why Sokoto So many kidnapping and killing going on in the country and no such directive was given
NYSC members were kidnapped
Children were kidnapped and killed
Villages were raided and villagers were killed, raped and kidnapped
No such order was given, is Sokoto more important than other locations
Hope this has nothing to do with the Sultan
Anyhow, we has any CNG car for sell

they will relocate to all the hot spots

After all your takeaway, what is the price?

Of what value is your takeaway without price of the petrol?

Teenaira:
I think you are right in your thinking. We must start looking at adding value to natural resources and raw materials to derive real values. However, his proposal looks good too. VAT is purely a consumption tax so, the more you consume, the more you pay. Who are the big consumers ? Obviously the rich and unfortunately a lot of them may not be paying personal income tax or they may have a means of playing around with Personal Income tax. So if the recommendation is implemented, we might end up taxing the rich more which is quite good and then reduce the tax burden on the middle class and low income earners. Even corporate tax is recommended to go down. The real challenge is informal taxes on the poor and corporate bodies. How is government going to get these guys to stop their nefarious activity which has been a part of us for ages ?

Who are the "we"?

CyrusVI:
He should Tax us as much as he can

FG needs to generate as much money as they can and since FG isnt a commercial firm, the money can only come from us the citizen

So what will the money be used for?

Gistmedia10:
As part of his homecoming tour, Nigerian music sensation Rema reunited with a former secondary school classmate who used to help him copy notes. This touching moment was shared online, accompanied by a nostalgic throwback picture from their school days.

During their reunion, Rema made headlines not only for reconnecting with his old friend but also for his generous gestures. He presented the girl with a substantial gift of ₦5 million, acknowledging her past support and kindness. Additionally, Rema made a remarkable donation of ₦105 million to a church, further demonstrating his commitment to giving back to the community.

The image features a nostalgic throwback to when they were both in school uniforms, capturing a moment that speaks volumes about their past bond and shared experiences.

Netizens have expressed admiration for Rema's ability to remain grounded and appreciative of those who supported him on his journey to success.

how is giving N105million to a church (christ embassy) a "further demonstrating his commitment to giving back to the community"?

IreneJane:
Irony of life!!!! Whereas those 2 you mentioned spent more in acquiring knowledge than your parent. If not, you wouldn't be here displaying your ignorance

The knowledge that u say the two have acquired more than his parents, how have they used it to make Nigeria better?

Odua4life:
Nice one Mr president.. what a strategic move by the Federal Government

Pls oh, what of $15b investment he "secured" from Indian investors?

faceland:
Government should just redesign our cities like Europe where everything is in one location or their is train. Let us walk, use bicycles or buy tickets.

This is not sustainable at all.

I need to find a west African country that is not hostile towards Nigerians.

Which government be that?

SmartPolician:
They should work on substitutes. Make CNG available and teach Nigerians how to safely use it. There was a time everyone was using kerosene in this country, but kerosene is costlier than petrol and nobody cares because we are all using cooking gas now.

Who are the "they" that u are expecting to work on substitutes?

madridguy:
This is a bad statement from the minister. Are we going to suffer the negligence of the FG in tackling smuggling? Are we Nigerians the right people to protect our borders?

.
Your eye don de clear small small. It's good

Confirmedzombie:
Ipob and obedient have cheered this man to his doom.

He can never enter Nigeria again. If he is not running away, then go to police and talk to them not on WhatsApp or zoom.

You allowed the wrong people to cheer you up.

So I guess the man is now an ipob?

I thought the police said the person they were looking that has a bookshop in NLC building was the person that destabilized Sudan.

Is it this line British citizen that destabilized Sudan?

How come he had been living in Nigeria all this while and Sudan never mentioned him as the person that destabilized Sudan?

Mynd44:
I can recall the last protests/riots in UK. When the dust cleared, the UK government said they will be going after protesters who rioted and those who nudged them on online on social media.

Governments around the world are beginning to look beyond those who join a riot or those who vandalize, theu are looking at those who provided tactical support, those who donated and those who encouraged them.

This man is being considered such and as much as he might be innocent, he will have to show that he did not do anything to encourage the protests which turned into rioting, looting and vandalization

With kidnappers roaming free and bandits mocking tinubu on TikTok and pillaging military armoured vehicles, it is protesters that is now a priority.

If protesters is now the priority, why are u and the government not interested in the pro government and the paid anti protests protesters?

Should they not also be hunted down and arrested? Should the sponsors of pro government protesters not also be hunted down and arrested for money laundering and nudging people to protest?.

Is protest not protest? Why is one more special than the other?

If protest has become a crime in your view, should we not also ask that tinubu, Soyinka and bakare be arrested for their roles in the 2012 protests against Jonathan?

MIKOLOWISKA:
cos now is your time to use your power not cry when the person Don assure 4yrs of loot

Who is the "your" you are referring to?

How does your response relate to the comment made or answer the question asked?

the electorate are yet to understand their power.

why coming to stand under the sun to listen to people who dont give a damn about them?

Softmirror:
The late General Azazi, the National Security Adviser during Jonathan's tenure as President said the same thing. Infact he made a very detailed analysis during the inception of Boko Haram.

that is not what I asked you.

is it politicians that are weaponsing insecurity to make tinubu and governors look bad or it is the incompetence, nonchalance and lack of patriotism of tinubu and governors that is making them look bad?

Jayhome24:
You should know who the reporter would be. All they are trying to do is to tarnish the current govt image thinking that will make people like me dump Tinubu it's not going to happen so let them run any propaganda as they like Tinubu willl spend 8 years in power if dem like make dem say bandit fly F16 jet or drive Armoured Tank I don't give a
f u c k.

Obidients una neva see anything una go taya las las cus Tinubu has come to stay he is going nowhere the earlier you s u c k e r s get that to your brain the better.

so dailytrust is now "obidient"?

let me ask, is it "obidients" or daily trust that is responsible for tinubus incompetence and failure?

who is tarnishig tinubus image, daily trust or tinubus lack of patriotism and incompetence?

this is the oath of office tinubu swore in may 29, 2023. can pls tell me how he has lived up to it and done the things he swore to do?

I, .............. do solemnly swear/affirm that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I will discharge my duties to the best of my ability, faithfully and in accordance with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the law, and always in the interest of the sovereignty, integrity, solidarity, well-being and prosperity of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that I will strive to preserve the Fundamental Objectives and Directive Principles of State Policy contained in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that I will not allow my personal interest to influence my official conduct or my official decisions; that I will to the best of my ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that I will abide by the Code of Conduct contained in the Fifth Schedule to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that in all circumstances, I will do right to all manner of people, according to law, without fear or favour, affection or ill-will; that I will not directly or indirectly communicate or reveal to any person any matter which shall be brought under my consideration or shall become known to me as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, except as may be required for the due discharge of my duties as President; and that I will devote myself to the service and well-being of the people of Nigeria. So help me God.

Faiththatworks:
Whoever is pushing this bandit killing spree narrative happening in the North-East of Nigeria should at least be objective in their report.
This narrative is getting very very one-sided and very soon Nigerians will lose interest and move on with their lives.
There's no battle that's one sided,I wonder how bandits will disarm a vigilante and a police man of their AK-47 without suffering any loss. That's an impossicant situation.
The reporter owes it to sane Nigerians to report the casualties on both sides and even if he/she decides to be sensational in their headlines,the demoralization should be on both sides.
They must start providing us with the scores on the number of terrorist and bandits that were killed anytime they are reporting.
I believe this is a time for these News mediums to show some patriotism and be factual in their report.
If they can report one vigilante and a police man were killed at their duty post,then anytime the security forces kill at least 2 or more bandits on their terror operations,then they must be ready to also let Nigerians know the enemy's camp was depleted.
We must never give the bastard terrorist the upper hand in reporting their bastard, criminal and devilish activities.
They must never ever win the propaganda war. That's a duty every media house owes this nation.
Patriotism over profit.
God bless Nigeria.

very good. can you pls explain to us how bandits kidnap hundreds of people and nigeria's security forces "rescue" these kidnap victims from their kidnappers but the rescue mission does not result in the death, capture or injury of any of the kidnappers or bandits?

are you aware of any bandit in police custody?

if the police is eager to looking for end bad governance protesters, how well has it channeled that same vigour in trying weed out bandits?

the electorate are yet to understand their power.

why coming to stand under the sun to listen to people who dont give a damn about them?

Max24:
Very smart man. Has Nigeria ever had this kind of smart president? Image the impression he has created in the presence of the Chinese investors as an action president. Obi would have signed an MOU and set up a committee to consider doing the project. But Jagaban knew exactly what to do in China. Talk about doing your homework well. I thought Obi supporters said Tinubu has Dementia during the elections? How come we have not heard any story of dementia again since he won? No baluba or balablu again? Oya, over to you Obidients. Come and explain yourselves. Is this the real Tinubu that contested elections or another Jubril from Equitorial Guinea?

you are right. nigeria has never had this type of "smart" president.

how come this his "smartness" has thrown nigeria into the worst inflation in the history of this country?

how come he is so "smart" that he has no clue on how to fix the economy or insecurity?

what exactly has his going to china got to do with awarding the contract for east west road?

if he is so smart and he is awarding the contract for the rehabilitation of east west road, what then is the essence of lagos/calabar coastal road?

BarrElChapo:
BAT should try to renegotiate the Naira-Yuan swap deal that failed under Buhari, rather than awarding roads cos China is our biggest trade partner. That alone can help stabilize our exchange rates but I guess they have other ideas.

Again, a state visit without meeting with President XI will be for photo ops

you are still expecting something from tinubu with all you have seen in the last one year. keep expecting

Richtaiwo:
Summary of the report is that there is lack of maintenance on the part of the airline operators. But watch retarded puppies spring up and start insulting, crying and cursing their worthless fathers as usual.

you are summarising report that you didnt read.

For Nigeria to return to the prime status, he advised the government to equip the NCAA with trained inspectors, experi­enced and complete re-organi­sation of the agency, including digitisations of regulations, which, he said, would give easy access to operators.

CyrusVI:


At this level, its like Death practically walks around the street over there

Their Govs dont even act like theh care. I wish them well

does tinubu who is exclusively responsible for the security of nigeria act like he cares or its only "emilokan" that he really cares about/
