Don't subsidies it. I repeat please Fg don't ever subsidise it , if you can't afford to fuel your vehicle, sell it and invest in business and create jobs, when you have the capacity to fuel your car then buy. We can't keep creating problems we can't manage

Subsidising products and services for the populace, masses especially and especially when it is something we have in abundance is not a crime. However, instead of facing our problems and tackling corruption that's affecting our way of life in every aspect, we tend to take the easiest ways out which is basically avoiding responsibilities all together. And unfortunately, some citizens like you have been conditioned to see and accept it as the best solution

Racoon:
To think that the FG and their zombies over hyped this CNG as a worthwhile policy but flatly refused to subsidized same speaks a lot about the treachery, backstabbing and wickedness of a government.

Meanwhile, Tinubu's Cadillac car is yet to be CNG compliant. Let hear what APC supporters have to say again.

Names calling is unnecessary and needless.
Not everyone who supports Tinubu or APC supported the hype behind CNG initiative or hyped it. And there are many people who do not support Tinubu or APC who welcomed the CNG initiative.

Generator or solar na the alternative

Austinbiggy:
Now, the two children came to visit their father for holiday now my wife left my house and go and see the children and hide my own child saying she doesn't want the children to know she has given birth. I have been having issues with her concerning the children, now the father of the children said she don't have business with her.

Guess what happened today, my wife knows very well that I am too attached with my four months baby, she took my baby and park her things and ran away from my house and my baby is just four months. I don't know her where about. People are saying I should calm down but I can't sleep. I met her former Guy and the guy told me she's a big fool, that she supposed to be happy that she see a man who accepts her even after giving birth for two. I don't really know what to do.

The more she stays with you, the more headache she will be giving you. Better accept your fate, move on with your life, you don't want to have this kind of unstable person in your life as your wife and mother of your kids. She doesn't know what she wants in life.
Look for another woman who is okay mentally and stable, marry her properly and start a new life with her.

NairalandForumo:
no, the mods are joining to delete comments on targeted accounts and putting the blame on bots, at some point you could not criticize Tinubu and the entire APC without getting a ban.

I have told you guys as long as you people keep using this platform to play politics, you guys will keep going round the circle, if you guys were to be fair, there are accounts here that should have been closed permanently, and if such accounts keep coming up you keep closing them, those accounts that are politically sponsored to drive hate and division.

but no, you guys are leaving them and trying to stifle opposing voices speaking the truth...

Then I would have sacked Mynd44 a long time ago because he is clearly partisan and biased (sorry to say).

The truth is as long as you people keep playing politics which is breeding injustice on this platform you people will keep having problems...

Seun is a PDP member, what are you saying about not being able to criticise APC? Criticise without insult and abuse, you won't chop ban

Our condolences madam. God will be with you and take away your sorrow

IamMobisola:
MEN ARE POLYGAMOUS IN NATURE was the beginning of Men's downfall right from the beginning of time when women had no say, had no rights, had no choice.

You sure? Because in many countries like USA and UK where polygamy is outlawed, their marriages fall like pack of cards, and at a faster rate than the countries where polygamy is legal.

Women of old(our great great grandmothers) got tired of being used, of being seen as sex slaves, of been seen as baby making machines, of being objectified. So they started the WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE GOOSE, IS GOOD FOR THE GANDER

Your great grandmothers didn't start this, your generation did. And the difference between their marriages and your generation marriages is clear in terms of stability and peaceful homes

If only men could get pregnant, Maternity fraud would be a pandemic across the globe but since only women can get pregnant, the result is what we see as Paternity Fraud.

No need for that, every gender has their naturally assigned biological roles. And for every wayward man out there, be aware that there is equally one wayward woman with him.

Men should continue to live with the consequences of their actions

Just because men are the ones speaking out about paternity fraud doesn't mean they are at the receiving end facing greater consequences.
Remember that men are the ones initiating paternity tests, you can very well guess the outcome for the victims when caught

Softmirror:
If men refuse to chuck their rod and control themselves, this things won't be happening.

No need to dey drag this matter between men and women. Bring bastad kids home, get caught, get chased out with your bastad children. Simple

Softmirror:
Men should start acting very responsibly in the society. They should stop sleeping with their fellow men's wives. This is the only solution. Men should blame themselves for this and take responsibility.

But married women are free to open their tights for willing men, right? Women who bring bascard children home will always be at the receiving end when caught

Buharidgeneral:
Sounds like fable but cases like this exist
Bbbb

You sounded so confused that I'm laughing at your confusion. A short sentence that managed to contradict itself

ChristineC:
no, it's about Ludo.

It was never about religion. It was about economic interests. Farmers, herders and the land disputes.
Just that herders are mainly Muslims while farmers are mainly Christians. That's where your confusion originated

DoctorStanley:
That was a BLATANT LIE!
Here was the exchange rate WHEN Tinubu took over:
(A year later it was nearing 1900)


There was absolutely no lie whatsoever. I [b] When Tinubu took over May 29 2023 $1 exchanged for 1900 naira!

Official rate was N400 and black market rate was around N700-800

MichaelSokoto:
of course nobody can dispute d charlatans found in d tell or list APC party...

Canadian court gave us the direct plain truth!

Are you communicating?

ARISHEM:
Bobrisky will always be critical just because VDM chase him out of Nigeria.
Besides Phyna came too late asking for VDM’s help. Her sister was already dead at that time.

Haba! Alaye! That's a big bold lie coming from you. The forth and back arguments was about settlement of the first hospital and how to transfer her to another hospital. When did she die?

What is nairaland turning into? Many FP thread with all the comments hidden!

To say the truth, when I saw VDM post on this issue concerning the hospital balance to be paid which Edo government volunteered to pay, the issue of discrepancy between the amount mentioned initially and the final amount that was later sent to Edo government officials by the hospital. I was convinced straight away that this guy VDM and the Edo state government rep were just being petty. Even despite the fact that the allegation came directly from VDM, I was sure of them being petty for alleging that the deceased sister and the hospital management were trying to dubiously increase the amount and fleece the government in the process.

justwise:
How many of your mature celebrities stepped in to help when Phyna came out crying? How many used their own resources to help Phyna? Non.. zero, only VDM came out with his platform and resources to help get justice for Ruth. Honestly a lot of Nigerians are very ungrateful

And he ended up messing things up, alleging that the sister to the victim and the hospital are fraud

adekolaelect:
It is easier said than done . Pls can you write out how you would have removed your own subsidy if you had opportunity to become the president in year 2023??

Tinubu didn't do well with the way he went about removing fuel subsidy. It could have been partial removal and even at that, that partial removal was supposed to be gradual. Our president is just transferring burdens to the ordinary Nigerians at every available opportunity while trying to increase government revenue generation.
We're paying too much for fuels (petrol, diesel, kerosene and gas) in Nigeria as an oil producing nation.
Even few days ago, CBN just admitted that subsidy removal was responsible for hyper inflation we're experiencing. It's like FG is making additional one billion naira monthly through her new policy while making the citizens lose 5 billion naira.
This is from APC member

dns.adguard.com This is how it should be. If they are not well gathered they won't be well scattered.

Isaiah 54:15-17. Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake

Really? I'm shocked!

MichaelSokoto:
dis tell or list party and their minions are petty!

Yesterday it was old grandpa ononoga wit his opata... see the way d tell or list hell-anus was happy over d gwans, u go begin fear for Nigerian jobless youths like am!


it is APC vs Nigerians in 2027
dis my quote dey pain urchinokis wella!

Those in APC are not Nigerians, I guess
Did you by chance see the results of the recent by-elections across the nation?

SonofElElyonRet:
Censorship of opinion by Seun

Too much. These days, I visit nairaland and engage here less and less. Just too many words and sentences are causing 30 minutes ban

AfDapone:
I don't quite agree. That RX SUV has weight which can make the car tumble when speeding on sharp bend. You must know this if you are trying to ride any SUV spiritedly.

It is the centre of gravity. Its center of gravity is high, unlike sedan cars whose center of gravity is low. The taller the car, the higher its center of gravity, the more it is prone to tumbling at a bend or while speeding excessively

Hamziyah:
SubhaanaLlah, I'm reading about him for the first after his death so I don't know the proper way to pronounce the name. I've been calling it SAN-ku.
So, someone actually named himself sanku?
Indeed, the world is an echo, whatever is thrown into it will surely bounce back.

Sa-n-ku

Ballo1292:
This is heartbreaking. RIP to sanku.

But please beware of the name you bear or answered.

SANKU in yoruba means to die prematurely.

Hope it is not what the enemy capitalized on sha?

Non.sense.

DoctorStanley:
Did anybody see 1900?

"According to him, when he took over, the exchange rate had ballooned to N1,900 to the US dollar. But thanks to reforms and fiscal discipline, the rate has stabilised around N1,450"

😅I've seen blatant lies before but this one takes the cake!

I'm sure he was referring to when he had just floated the naira and all those crypto guys were messing up naira and they were dealt with

Expulsion and prison term waiting for them. No be small thing

Rape.person in Lagos state and chop life sentence sharply

Softmirror:
I know you can afford it. You are only complaining.

All these arbitrary increase in prices of goods and services will continue to lead to more hyper inflation that makes our currency becoming more useless. It is not good for the future of this country. Everyone should be complaining even if they can afford the prices

shox:
nairaland is trying so hard to silence the voice of the opposition

Nairaland owner is a member of opposition. Everyone's comment gets removed here and not because of your association but because of what you typed and posted and how you typed it

nairalanda1:
Not a fan of tinubu

1. At the end, Nigerians have to learn that refining fuel products is an expensive basis and thus trying to subsidize it is also an expensive thing

I bet that other crude oil producing nations have different story to tell. May be our leaders should learn from them how they managed to keep the price of fuels very low for their citizens. Because as an oil producing nation, we shouldn't be paying N900 per litre of petrol, the same goes for the prices of diesel, kerosene, aviation fuel and gas. Let's stop justifying rubbishh

2. A lot of people in saner climes park their cars and use public transport in part because fuel is expensive there

I can see how public means of transportation is everywhere and very cheap, I don't know why Nigerians are not making use of it.

3. Which is where this government has failed. There is no ongoing plan to provide cheap public transport that you can use instead of car. Railways, and the metro systems in Lagos and Abuja haven't seen much expansion. CNG works but is not widely available.


All in all, the elephant in the room is cheap public transport. Also railways expansion( full disclosure, i love rail transport)

Trash bin

People in UK can't even protest against the genocide of Palestinians being carried out by Israel, UK government is arresting people who speak up or carry placards

Softmirror:
You mean you cannot afford 100,000 for passport?! Wahaya kum

One. I don't need it.
Two. I can afford it in multiples.

What do you use it for that you will not spend more than?!

Is this a justification? Very wrong. It is exploitation
