No, he did the programming and all.

The government’s stance on the fuel pricing controversy between Dangote Refinery and NNPCL is astonishingly tone-deaf. By refusing to intervene and leaving Nigerians at the mercy of market forces, the administration shows a dangerous level of detachment from the hardships faced by the average Nigerian. President Tinubu’s spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga, claims that because the market is deregulated, the government cannot interfere, effectively absolving the administration of responsibility.

This position is a betrayal of the public trust. If Nigerians are left to “negotiate” with billionaire businesses like Dangote and a monopolistic NNPCL, why did we even bother voting for this government? The presidency is acting as though the “buck doesn’t stop” at their desk, leaving citizens to suffer exorbitant fuel prices that affect every aspect of life—from transportation to food costs.

In tough economic times, leadership should step in to protect the people, not stand by idly while private entities dictate essential commodity prices. It’s clear that this administration has become detached from the daily struggles of the masses, showing no intent to use its influence to cushion the blows of economic hardship.

By the time tinubu is done, all those who are fortunate enough to survive after this his tenure should just come together and give God thanks. Because this man has no idea what he's doing. He's toying with the lives of millions of Nigerians, all because he wants to answer "Mr President". People are dying in droves daily, and more people will still die. All for one man's greed.

It's one thing to be a good politician, and a totally different thing to be a good leader.

Will they reduce the price of fuel ? Or upturn Edo election?

The deed has been done

If the Edo people foolishly allow APC to hijack their state, then sorry for them. Any Party can win Edo, but let it not be APC for crying out loud.

With the suffering the evil terrorist APC have subdued Nigerians to, their winning a state like an Edo of all states is a big slap to all Edo people.

Why will APC even have one vote in any election conducted with all their evil agendas and atrocities they've committed? God! There's no hope in sight? If APC wins Edo state of all states, then obviously Tinubu is winning flawlessly in the next election. Nigeria is cursed with fóolish citizens not just leaders.

Our government is incompetent. No argument there.

Before subsidy removal, the World Bank and co did numerous studies on the impact of subsidy removal, and money was given, which the government should have added to to help alleviate the impending sufferings, but here we are.

Fact is, government can not continue to afford to subsidise, and fuel and most other things are bound to become a lot more expensive.

Tinubu said the Nigeria economy will be in trillions, and this is how we will get there. Minimum wages of ₦70k is likely to be ₦700k in a very few years time and it still would not make fuel any cheaper.

ShoeGetSize:
They will also lay off a lot of workers. Many small and medium scale industries will also lay off workers.

It will backfire eventually because a privately owned business can only pay from what it earns as profit and even most so called large companies in Nigeria are struggling to make marginal profits.

Not every private business generates massive profit like banks and telcos.

This is nothing but a terror attack
