Chad & Cameroon are sentencing & executing them in their countries while Buhari is 'rehabilitating' terrorists in our own country.

Is Buhari not mad?

Kay17:
Wasn't that the cost before the absurd cost of forex? What about right now with the forex cost? OR you want to drain all of Nigeria's FX reserve on refined oil?!

Besides what's the value of crude oil that it can be swapped for refined oil of the same value?! Either you are swapping the oil or selling it in exchange for dollars and then spending the dollars on refined oil, is about the same. Crude oil swaps are not miracles that solve decades of decay.

There are some problems with painful solutions.

And you do not know that a certain percentage of our local crude oil production is set aside during budgetting for local refining that the refinaries cannot exhaust, this is swapped for refined petroleum products.
Why did Buhari stop the swap?

We have heard too many deadlines, just shut up & give us fuel.

OrlandoOwoh:
It's a pity you in particular will be in pain till the end of his tenure.

Stale !

Quakertellicus1:
Because of the scams going on in the inport business re subsidy...where people collect dollars for fuel they did not import.

Deregulation is the answer.

And what is stopping the gap toothed herdsman from Daura deregulating instead of strangulating the whole sector.

Buhari is dumb & APC is a scam.

OrlandoOwoh:
For the first time in Nigeria radio and TV stations, GSM service providers and banks closed or reduced the hours of their services during GEJ's tenure because there was no PMS and AGO to power their power generating plants.

It was so because fuel marketers closed down tank farms, together with NUPENG & PENGASSAN strike all at the sametime.

This one that happening now is also towing same direction as hospitals are beginning to be affected and ask you, what is causing this one?

My answer - Buhari's stewpidity.

nairaimporter:
You don forget things that really matter

Increase in price of indomie
If people can't buy indomie again what will they eat!

Dat one n serious thing oo !

Kay17:
The real price prior to now was 86+x. X being the difference the govt subsidies for each litre. With the forex dramatic double cost, the real cost will be at least 2(86+x). Unfortunately I'm too lazy to find the actual costs. But that's just a rough calculation.

Wrong!

86 is pump price, landing cost is 76, so the max fuel can go at is 160 max.
And why did Buhari stop crude swap & sale of forex to fuel importers by CBN simulteneously without any option when he knows that local production can only meet 35% of local consumption at maximum output if he is not stewpid.
Even if he wants to stop CBN forex sales, why stop crude swap when you do not have local refining capacity, every organisation engages in barter agreement.

Buhari is dumb.

Kay17:
Then how was your answer a solution when it would lead us back to this point. No proper business man will buy refined oil with the exchange rate of 320N to the dollar and sell at 86 or 100N. And most can't resist the temptation to hoard to sell higher. It's capitalism at its finest.

The realistic price is 150 -160, moreover Buhari stopped the crude swap & replaced it with nothing.

Kay17:
Would you buy petrol for up to 400 naira a litre?

How much am i buying now with queue?

Kay17:
What do you want him to do? Devalue the naira to match with open market? Or subside the oil importers' costs to meet 86 naira?

Which poison do you suggest?

Deregulate fuel importation, anyone who can source forex should sell the fuel he is importing at a price profitable to him. Is that rocket science?

obailala:
My statement wouldn't make sense to only blinded partisan supporters from the GEJ divide. I don't know your political leanings, but my bet is that you must fall into this category.

Is it not better to spend the trillions and have fuel, light & cheap food to eat. If partisanship can get me an affordable living, i choose to remain partisan.

"Feasts are made for laughter, wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything" - Ecc 10:19

ANYTHING can be bought with money; after splashing N2.13Trillion on petroleum importers in 2011 alone, even the devil himself couldn't have stopped fuel from being available in those locust years. The situation has changed today; there is no money to splash around and the people in authority aren't willing to splash money (even if there was).

Did you make sense to yourself?

Kay17:
The country is defective enough to import all its required refined oil entirely. That has been a long term crisis on its own. Added to it, is a sinking currency which has always been a Nigerian problem thanks to our import appetite. Furthermore the govt with its priced gold laying goose thinner, can not afford to subsidise any problem.

The problems aren't failings of this govt. It is worse to draw the wrong conclusions from the facts. If not today, at least tomorrow the crisis will resurface.

Buhari is aloof !

NNPC only is importing fuel now as only them is getting forex at official price. Buhari is insisting on N86 per liter & no importer will buy forex at N320 per $1 & sell at 86, is Buhari not confused?

A subtle attempt at establishing islamic citadels & camps across the South as they did in Eneohia-Itim in Afikpo Ebonyi state.

Nigerians be wise.

Your destiny is not intact. Your destiny has been shared by Dasuki Sambo to PDP looters.

If yours was shared, mine was not shared .

BlissP:
pls wake up and face reality... whatever we face in 9ja 2day has effect on all.. whoever u voted for isnt important now...besides, with or without ur vote, he is destined to rule.

Well, me have deliberatly refused to submit to his rule having submitted to the higher authority of the Messiah.

BlissP:
and yet, he is ur President... u see how destiny have kept u so low. An empty head presiding over ur life.... u need deliverance..

He presides over those that voted for him with his NEPA bill not me, i voted the other way.
My destiny is intact.

Proud wailer....warri branch

Proudly 5% wailer from waterside.

Just shut up & get down to work.

O God, i commit the judgement of all those who connived to impose the most stupidest administration of Buhari with it's attendant hardship on us into your hands, judge the righteously in your name, amen.

APC is a mega SCAM.

And his head is still very empty after 40yrs

Nwoke a bu Buhari amaro ife at allll !!

Let her be tried, if guilty jail her, if not let the woman be.

We had fuel under watch but no fuel after her watch.

Buharii ooo !!

The petroleum minister/head of state is busy loitering around the world looking for a new teenage wife.

No other proof of Buhari's insensitive aloofness & irresponsibility than this 2 months old crippling fuel scarcity.

Nigeria welcome to the mega scam called APC's change.

Daremee:
Typical Nigerian offensive mode when they are in breach of globally accepted norms and conventions.
What is improper is improper, period. No justifying crude display by claiming 'neocolonialist'
No need for these crass exhibitionalism. It's surprising, given the governors profile. He even looks better in safari.

And typical African crass ignorance.

What makes wearing a locally made cloth braided with your portrait or that of your spouse 'improper'.?


Well by your definition of 'improper', it is if tne Americans do not do it & if tomorrow Michelle Obama wears a T-shirt with her husbands portrait on it, then it will become proper.

Imagine !

Cyjetty:
These are public servants. Is this an acceptable code of dressing in any civilized nation? Only in Africa. Did Michelle Obama or Hilary Clinton ever wear clothes plastered all over with their husbands pictures, or any state governors wife in America for that matter. Private citizen,Ok but public functionaries, Primitive. Unless in memorial mode.

Neo-colonisation !

So everything not done as was done by the westerners is primitive?

I see !

Adebola314:
Congrats on your good deed, Madam BUT
The only thing I find distasteful, like many people is this habit you and your husband have of wearing cloth with Obiano picture on it 24 hours.
At least Peter Obi was wearing mostly APGA party uniforms with Ojukwu picture.
This dressing habit of Obiano uniform all the time is poor PR. Abi they say you people were living in US before where people are more exposed in attitude and actions.
Let your good deeds not be hijacked by this negative image which can portray you like Marcos family of Philippines always wearing cloth with their picture. Next time you are going for event like this, wear cloth that is not advertising you or your husband. But anyway you don try o for helping this poor widow.

Is anything wrong with a wife wearing clothes embroided with her husbands portrait?

sammhi:
if from his own personal account, then good but if from govt account, then it is a fraud. how is it only one widow..what about countless odas...?
it is such a pity and quite laughable how politicians play on our intelligence... not their fault bot gullible followers

Her NGO, caring family enhancement initiative, CAFE does not receive 1k from govt, it's all private donations & she is replicating this across other towns in Anambra state.

hotwax:
Fayose made life easy for PDP in the last election. Especially that news paper advertisement. I want him to continue. He was the reason APC won.

Really ?

kester2208:
Please somebody help, my 08 Honda Accord makes a disgusting noise whenever I start the engine especially in the morning or whenever I have left it for awhile. Pls does anyone have an idea of what the problem might be. Also my I have the VSA and TPMS indicator on my dash board. Any idea?

Vehicle stability assist(VSA), Tire pressure monitoring sensor(TPMS).

Chect your ABS wiring harness & gauge your tires properly or else get sensor checked out, inside the rims of your tire.

For the rattling noise, often associated with the camshaft position sensor, may need to change it but start with a scan first.

hardywaltz:
It's on record that Fayose hasn't commissioned any completed project in his life time. If u doubt me do a Google search.

Fayose has turned Ekiti state into a 'Fountain of Rice and beans'

At least his people are not hungry like that of his brother in Osun state.
