Sorry....I don't know where you learnt your economics ...buh from d little I know (I don't know much of economics BTW).. it's always been inverse....high oil prices leads to high prices of the by-product.....simple logic...
I appreciate your opinion...nd ur arguments by not going the abusive or name calling way...
Kudos for that
yeah, everyone knows it should vary directly normally but that is if everything is alright but there is more to it in Nigeria........Look at these excerpts.....

Speaking with The Guardian on why petrol price is still high in Nigeria despite the declining crude oil prices, Head, Energy Research, Ecobank Development Company (EDC) Nigeria Limited, Dolapo Oni said: “The first is devaluation. As we are fully dependent on imports for our petroleum products currently, we are exposed to the higher foreign exchange rate compared to last year. As oil prices continue to drive lower, the demand for ships to buy the crude for storage till prices recover has forced the freight rate of ships to increase, thus the freight component of getting the products into the country has also increased.



According to him, “the share of the nation’s resources committed to fuel importation and fuel subsidy is horrendous and perhaps scandalous, since declining oil price was supposed to moderate the cost of petrol.”

On why there was no reflection, Yusuf, an economist, said the country did not have a downstream market because government fixed all the prices with all manner of interventions, like subsidies.

“We don’t have the kind of market mechanism that can easily reflect changes in some parameters. Even if it reflects, it will not show. If we have such a market, competition will force prices to come down. In the downstream, we don’t have what is called a proper market, so the reflections happening in the global arena can hardly reflect locally.


To the past Head of the Department of Petroleum Engineering and the Deputy Director, Centre for Petroleum, Energy Economics and Law, Dr. Olugbenga Falode: “It is a demand and supply scenario that you see everywhere. If the demand is high and the supply is short, the price will go up. It is quite unfortunate that Nigeria’s refineries that were built to refine the country’s crude oil are not producing up to full capacity which has made the country to depend on importation of petroleum products.”

Falode therefore called on the Federal Government to resuscitate refineries and make them work to full capacity to meet local demand for petrol.

So, you see, it is a whole lot of problems that made ours to be converse and the government is now taking steps. The truth is , it will take a while before such reflects. So, for now, with respect to crude and pms, there can"t be a direct variation till there is a stability.

Please read below:

Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, on Sunday evening boasted that he could provide uninterrupted power supply to Lagos residents between six and eight months.

Fashola spoke at the commissioning of 8.5 megawatts Lekki Independent Power Project (IPP), the fifth of such power projects in the last five years in the state.

The governor said the addition of the Lekki IPP was a testament to the fact that stable power does not require rocket science to achieve in the country.

While challenging power distribution companies in the state, Fashola said, “Let the Eko DISCOs sign a contract with me, giving part of their concessioning to the state government, in about six to eight months, there will be power in all homes in Lagos State,” Fashola said.

He added, “So, let no one say that he has no money to deliver power for the entire country. This is the limit to which the law allows us to do, but we have done this to make a statement that power can be generated. So, when they come with lies that power is impossible, you can tell them that we have power here; we make it possible”.

I wasn't talking abt the statement allegedly made by BRF.... wether he said such or not is not my concern.....buh it was very disturbing, with d way u came in with the argument of prices of PM's nd crude oil .....which everyone knows if oil prices are high...PM's price would b high too...buh u believed the opposite is the case
Okay. Check my writeups again, I said normally, it is supposed to vary directly if both ends i.e the crude producing part and the refined producing part are the market determinants but as it is, Nigeria does not seem to be a market determinant as some countries have even boycotted our crude. So, that is what is responsible for the converse.

Let me check. Be right back!
* Modified
This excerpt was taken from the same writeup of that news.

“I understand that I am not an economist; they (Federal Government) are the economists. But I have some logic and common sense to ask critical questions.

“For instance, if one buy flour at N10 per kilogram, and the bread was sold at N1 per loaf. If the price of flour drops, the price of the bread should also change,” Fashola added.

- See more at: http://www.elombah.com/index.php/reports/7242-oil-slump-bring-down-fuel-price-immediately-fashola-to-fg-archive#sthash.8cgewX9N.dpuf

...Based on the excerpt, we can say Fashola did not rule out the possibility of errors being in his thoughts. His expression was a mixture of assumption (not being an expert), query and some little harmless politics. If you finish reading the right up, you would see that it was reported that he URGED the FG to...................... That is more or less a constructive criticism and not an outright assertion.

When crude oil prices go up, the price of PMS goes down?
Obviously Barawo Raji FashOle, BRF does not know that hence he was lambasting the past federal administration to reduce the fuel price since crude oil price had gone down, abi huh



www.nairaland.com/attachments/3608065_image_jpeg_jpeg6f95b5e7a24ad4fc0808d6698fd37362
If there is a very high demand for crude oil world wide, the price will rise so high and we will make enough profits hoping that we will not buy the refined form in that way. The prices would have varied directly but unfortunately, we are not in the position to determine the price particularly when USA stopped buying our crude but we need the refined version. If I have a raw material for example, and you have a factory where you majourly use my raw material for a finished good. I sell my raw material to you at a reasonable price and then when you brought your finished goods, you made it so high. I can easily decide that since that is the game you want to play, whenever you come for my raw material, I will so much hike the price too and the game continues because we are both market determiners. Now, if you now decide to boycot my raw material and go for it somewhere else, I will be helpless when you bring the much needed finished goods as you now have a very big advantage ......That is the story of the Nigerian crude.
Moreover, if he says pms should be sold lower, it does not necessarily imply that it should be sold lower because the prices of crude oil has gone down.If I say, at 40 dollars per barrel, pms should sell at 100 naira per litre for example, this does not mean that I meant it should be sold at that price because the crude oil price crashed. It is a view. Can you provide a link where he said it should be sold at a lower price BECAUSE CRUDE OIL PRICE CRASHED? If you can do this then you win.Waiting.....

I wanted to engage you initially till I saw the second picture you posted. So, you do not know that the price of crude oil varies inversely as the price of PMS. The higher our crude oil is being sold, the lower the price of pms. If we make so much profit from selling crude oil at a high price, pms will be cheaper and not the other way round.

I know it will come to this. Check my timelines. I have been consistent with my predictions about Fashola. He was a mouth making governor who pays the media to sing his praises. He never achieved much in Lagos. He was praised for futuristic and abandoned projects.
.
Don't say what you do not know. He achieved so much in lagos except if you were blind or being stewpud is just an hobby to you.
Boss13:
Thank God Nigerians are now seeing him for who he is - a liar and a fraudster.
If you cannot provide evidences to back up this claim, just keep quiet.

Boss13:
Now I wonder why Buhari appointed a lawyer, with no expertise in mundane engineering, talk more of electrical engineering as minister of power and Nigerians are excited hoping to get constant power supply.
..Because leadership is more of a strong will and decision making rather than expertise. There are experts that can brief one at any time and do the job. All what is needed is direction ,decision making and follow up.
Boss13:
As long as Fashola is there, Nigerians should go and start making financing decisions on how to change or procure new power generators.
Prophet of doom. You lots always forget that you are first Nigerians before anything else. It is hight time you got over the election loss.

agoadiv:
Let's learn some KITCHEN tips, your kitchen is the most important room in your home.
A lot comes out from there, so let's learn some few tricks. Works wonders.
1. If you happen to over-salt a pot of soup, just drop in a peeled potato. The potato will absorb the excess salt.


2. When boiling eggs, add a pinch of salt to keep the shells from cracking.


3. Never put citrus fruits (Oranges, Lemons,
limes, etc) or tomatoes in the fridge. The low temperatures degrade the aroma and flavor of these fruits.(That's why our tomatoes don't last in the fridge)


4. To clean iron cooking ware, don’t use detergents. Just scrub them with salt and a clean, dry paper towel.


5. When storing empty airtight containers, throw in a pinch of salt to keep them from getting stinky..
Nice tips OP but always remember to give honour to an original post. Stop plagiarizing other person's work.

Those trailer drivers are just so inexperienced. They usually approach that curve with top speed and try to turn the steering while on d sam top speed hence the reason for the slides almost all the time. I think it is the effect of cenripetal force. Motorists should always slow down when approaching a curved road.

Health › Re: Why People Urinate More During Harmattan by naturalwaves: 3:00pm On Mar 10, 2016
On a cold day, the cold sensations from the environment would first be received by the cold sensitive nerve cell endings of the skin which will in turn send the message to the part of the brain that is responsible for the temperature regulation of the body. The part of the brain that is responsible for this is the HYPOTHALAMUS. In response to the message sent to it, this hypothalamus part of the brain then causes what is known as VASO-CONSTRICTION to take place i.e the blood capillaries under the skin will be made smaller so as to allow for less flow of blood. The result of this is that it leads to less sweating on the surface of the skin and there will not be a chance for evaporation and cooling. If your pores are not so opened and there are no sweating, water cannot be lost through the skin hence leaving you with the sole option of urinating. This is why people urinate more on a cold day or in a cold room and less on a hot day.
