Until you have such personal encounter with someone who has favored you in whatever way deemed worthy, you will do more when it's you

Note: the governor won that sit under Kwankwaso's political party! grin

The application for discontinuance, which was moved by the Director of Public Prosecution of the Federation, DPPF, Mr. Mohammed Abubakar, was anchored on provisions of sections 174(1), (b) and (c) of the 1999 Constitution, as amended, and 108 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, ACJA, 2015.

I just read this part of the constitution...that means the AGF has right to take over and review and discontinue any case that is still in court...without the permission of even the President.

Yet, we have 1001 inmates still awaiting trial in Nigerian overpopulated prisons.
It's majorly the overzealousness of our security agencies who don't know their job but rather use their powers to oppress and this also shows the dysfunctional justice system we run in this country...who sent them to go arrest children.....the IGP or the DPP in charge of that case needs to be sacked......some people really need to be fired for this....that's how they harrass poor innocent souls and if you can't part with money they keep you in prison.

only a man with empty brain, that is some one without the tool or equipment to think,will imagine that this reform or whatever you call it will work or have any positive impact, at best this can only yield extra money from the sorrow of the people to be squandered by the imprudent Tinubu.
That's all more money at the discomfort of the people to be wasted on frivolities
Bloody retard like yourself who knows nothing about running a common association is here making lucid assertions about our national economy......who told you the reforms wouldn't work when we are already seeing results though infinitestimal but gradually would become wholistic.....you know nothing about the economy but your rancid frivolous individual satiation.

I don't expect much from a dimbat. It's the usual rhetorics of a mumu zombie. All those nonsense you wrote is defeated as the realities on the street is staring at you in the face, the stark reality of today is that Nigerians are better off than they were last year or the years before, any attempt to deny that fact is playing the ostrich and sounding like a dull pupil. Ire oh.
Bloody dingbat like yourself should know that these reforms are painful because it's a whole surgical procedure on our economy.....there isn't any easy way out of it if we don't want to end up like Zimbabwe or Venezuela.....smart folks already knew we would get here because tinubu already told you what he was going to do and he did, atleast if for anything all the 3 presidential candidates agreed that subsidy must go and we need to liberalise our forex market,so why are you hating that it's been done now......only fools would believe there is an easier way.

You are the deluded one,he is juxtaposing SA roads with ours and the reason theirs is better is cause they pay taxes and many of the roads are tolled....but all of you shouting and insulting govt about the condition of our roads will scream blue murder once govt decides to toll them or get more strict on tax collection.

Whenever I read all these your nonsense posts, my position is that, it's either school failed you or you failed school, it has to be one of the two.
This exact idiocy, is what the government today sold to Nigerians that subsidy only benefit a few elites who are swallowing Nigerias money and the poor do not benefit from subsidy but today it's obvious to the blind that it is even the poor that benefits most from subsidy with the over 100% inflation that we are experiencing in Nigeria today, some cannot even feed and are already picking tomatoes on the floor.
You claim that it's only the elites that want cheap fuel to go to parties,but your shallow thinking did not tell you that the barbers, dry cleaners, mechanics, delivery guys,Uber drivers and food sellers need more cheap fuel daily to run their businesses than even the owambe people, are those people you alluded. Are they also elites?
You said cheaper fuel could lead to snuggling, is that not the failure of the government and why should the Nigerian populace be paying for the governments failure to secure her borders?
Finally, since the subsidy has been removed and the government is now getting more revenues, how has it benefitted the lives of the average Nigerian today? Are you better off today than you were last year, talkless of 5 years ago?
Infact this Tinubu administration has borrowed more than his predecessors despite his so called removal of subsidy. To say you are very dull is an understatement but you sound like a complete economic illiterate.
Your points are as pedestrian as can be....the elites are complaining more about subsidy removal,take that to the bank....who drives the expensive fuel guzzling cars,who needs to run his generators every sec there isnt power even while sleeping,who owns the gas stations and oil importation businesses getting subsidised petrol so more people can come buy thereby more profits for him... the poor has long adjusted their lives to current realities but it's the elites who are missing out on their frivolities to the detriment of the economy.

The poor benefits far less from subsidy than the rich....the major reason for the inflation we are experiencing isn't solely caused by subsidy removal but majorly our currency devaluation and our lack of adequate production of food.....maybe it's in your village or family that they are picking tomatoes in the streets,right here i haven't seen any.

Only a dumb shallow minded nitwit can think we can get out of this recession in just 18 months when our economy had already been in a downward spiral for several years......subsidy removal benefits isn't about giving people rice or money,its about re channeling the surplus to critical segments of our economy.

You claim tinubu has borrowed more money but you are too dimwitted as always to realise that Nigeria's debt to GDP has reduced,debt servicing to revenue ratio has reduced, foreign reserves is on the upswing,oil production has marginally improved from the abysmal 1.2m bpd to about 1.5m etc.

It is a fact that the macro economic outlook of our economy is very stable and positive but it's the micro that's a problem and your govs also have a huge role to play at that level to alleviate and improve the lives of their citizens.....but tell me what your gov has done it is doing to develop his state to the benefit of his citizens.

What’s the difference between them and military if you cannot allow people freely ask you questions without getting offended.
Your argument is neither here noh there.....you are only free to criticise this govt anyhow you like because it's a democracy,even this forum and the likes can be impeded from operating just by fiat, without you having any right to do otherwise,go ask Eritrea,Cuba,N korea and the likes.....I am not sure you were impressionable enough to have experienced the military era.

Fuel doesn't get into a car engine.It goes into a process of combustion by mix with air in the carburettor and the combustion exit through the exhaust.
Low quality fuel wouldn't combust properly and this would have adverse effect on the vehicle and the environment.

You cant wish away the high cost of production in Nigeria as a result of high energy. In the absence of adequate power supply, manufacturing will continue to suffer. Households will continue to suffer. SMEs will continue to suffer
That's exactly the point.....we have always had these problems with us even when we were enjoying subsidy and removal of it didn't unleash the lacuna on us.....my argument is we need to deemphasize the importance of pms on our economy.....Are you aware there is still subsidy on power.....now the govt wouldn't have any excuse for not getting basic infrastructure working.

The entire beach front setback all belongs to the FG,that's why Landmark couldn't complain when they came for him......However,she can sue the minister for infringing on her right to air her comment and acts capable of bringing her to public ridicule..... several people have won cases against the govt in a democracy but in a military regime,you wont even get a chance.

Shut up if you don't have any reasonable things to say.what has average Nigeria get from the fuel subsidy remover money ? What has Nigeria benefits from the money generated from subsidy remover ? Nothing.all the money generated from the fuel subsidy is being shared among the elites, nothing for the poor masses.is it not all of us enjoy the fuel subsidy than to few people sit down and be sharing the money generated from the fuel subsidy remover ? Stop defending nonsense.
The finance minister just came out to announce Nigeria should be aiming to earn upto N700b monthly from we being able to refine our own crude.....that's a lot of money for anybody to be able to share to friends.

Student loans.
Consumer credit.
More robust mortgage sector.
More allocation to states and LGA'S.
N75b finance to MSME.
Legacy projects like Lagos -Calabar, badagry -ilela,cross river to Abuja high ways.
Reduction in debt servicing to revenue ratio.
Minimum wage increment.

These and many more are done benefits that are already out there.

It shall not be well with Dangote and he will die a painful death, Dangote is the main problem of Nigeria follow by fg,
The analogy of the OP is utterly selfish and self serving at best......international bench marking is the best way to go to bring about better accountability in the sector.....how can you on one hand be screaming full deregulation and upholding the PIA and on the other hand be encouraging govt to keep keeping their hands in the same crude by controlling prices..... cheaper fuel means more subsidy for the rich and neighbouring African countries because it will find it's way there somehow and you deprive govt from revenues they should have gotten from same space to the benefit of a few business men and smugglers.

We need to deemphasize the importance of PMS to our economy.....all major industries run on diesel and gas,our critical transportation sector like trucks,trains,barges and boats run majorly on diesel and this has long been unsubsidized without so much hue and cry,but the average elite wants to keep driving their convoys,V8 trucks and SUVs and fleeting around for every unproductive reason such as going to parties and clubs and other mindless fuel guzzling purpose.

The poor might not have any reason to go into a petrol station to buy a single liter of fuel because he probably has no car or bike or even a generator and if he does it would be majorly for commercial reasons.....yes you would scream wouldn't the poor need to Move around and pay high cost of transportation,the poor uses per less petrol per capita than the rich and if the poor needs to transport himself he would be most meticulous in his transportation needs.

No wonder them no gree release price since.

Before Dangote, fuel was around 600-700. After Dangote, manufacturing price is now 990. A lot more than when fuel was imported.

I told people around me expecting to be a saviour that I'd rather have a foreign company own the refinery than Dangote. Man has no regards for Nigerians. Now they are trying to have another monopoly in the oil sector by engineering a court case to stop fuel importation. Petrol on the road to 3k by 2026.
The price was so because of subsidy,now subsidy is out hence the higher prices.....do not blame dangote.

If you were still importing,there is no way won't be buying @ 1,300 to 1,600 without subsidy.
