Taribizy:
I think sooooo o. The DSS may end up creating a bigger problem for the president than the corruption he is trying to end
On the contrary, Buhari is the one creating problems for himself and the nation using the DSS as a willing tool. The president is a known human right violator and highly discriminatory personality. How far he can eat his cake and still have it under a democratic rule is yet to be comprehended. Let's wait and see.

OrlandoOwoh:
"Prevailing global price" is not a determinant of the amount PMS is sold locally. Countries fix their own prices. The US does belong to OPEC but produces oil, how does the "prevailing global price" affect the prices of petroleum products in the country?
Wrong. Nigeria's fuel price is determined to a large extent by international crude price simply because of our inability to refine locally. Don't forget that we have to export our crude for refined imported products. We would not be able to control our local price until all the refiners are made to work at optimal capacity. By then. we'll be able to adequately determine all the cost of production, distribution and marketing. That's it.

When Jonathan removed subsidy, was the price of PMS
increased or reduced?
The increment was in consonance with the prevailing global price at that time. There is no basis or justification for this N2 paltry reduction by Buhari.

It doesn't work that way sir. And when the price was reduced to N87 it was political and not economic. While the price of crude accounts for a substantial cost of refined products, there are other factors that are more or less fixed such as operating costs.
Gosh! This guy wants to force an Arabic laughter! Tell Buhari to use his political and body language sagacity to reduce it to N40 now. Bros just leave us alone.

Politics › All Culprits In The Shiite-Army Clash Must Be Brought To Book. by OLADD(op):
History will always repeat itself most especially in climes where strict adherence to the rule of law remains a mirage. In the case of our dear nation, not only are we confronted with dearth of institutionalised frameworks for ensuring compliance with laid down regulations, instances of flagrant abuse of authorities by both the leaders and the led constitute a major bane to peace, internal coercion, growth and development. From the military down to civil rules, hardly has any administration passed without incidents of intra-security agencies clashes on one hand, and hostilities between security apparatus and civil populace on the other.
During the regime of Obasanjo alone, the nation experienced more than two incidents of conflicts between soldiers and police resulting in loss of lives and properties. The case of Fela Anikulapo family house invasion which resulted in the death of the AfroBeat's mother in the 80s is still fresh in our nation's memory. Commissions of Enquiry were set up but up till this moment, not a single culprit had been brought to book neither was any white paper issued on findings from the enquiries. Not only has this emboldened our law enforcement agencies to embark on official rascality, it has further diminished inter cordial relationship amongst security agencies and civilian-security agencies interface.

Against this backdrop, not many were taken aback when the news of the clash between the convoy of the Chief of Army Staff and the dreaded Shiite Movement broke penultimate week.

That incident would have been substantially prevented if the past ones had been dispatched with stiff and rapt attention and culprits brought to book. On the part of Elzakzzaky's Shiite Sect, it has become a case of too many disobedience to military and police authorities. The sect leader was reported to have been incarcerated at various times by previous administrations on account of civil disobedience and breaches of public peace. During the immediate past adminstration, the sect's misdemeanor resulted in the death of three sons of its leader. Unfortunately, that case was waived off as if nothing happened. There was no single prosecution or reprimand of the major actors involved in the fracas. So, when the latest Buratai-Shiite confrontation hit the airwaves, it was a chorus of déjà vu.
However, if this latest anomaly is allowed to go unresolved, the nation would have prepared itself for a Banana Republic status.

From the above preambles, we need as a matter of priorities to seek explanations on the following:

1. BURATAI'S OWN STORY OF BEEN AMBUSHED FOR ASSASSINATION.

While the story might have some iota of truth, the Army Chief should be crossed examined on the following:

a. Did he send an advance party of security surveillance to Zaria road in order to determine his safe passage?

b. Was that how he would have run into a Boko Haram ambush as result of improper intelligence gathering?

c. Can we infer that Buratai's convoy's display of naivety and Intelligence pulsity were the major reasons our military has not been able to clip the wings of insurgents over the years?

2. INVASION OF ELZAKZAAKY'S SHRINE AFTER THE HIGHWAY CONFRONTATION.

Reports have it that reinforcements were made by military authorities for the arrest of the Shiite's leader after the road hostility, an act that resulted in wanton killings and destruction of properties. We further seek explanations on the following:

a. Constitutionally, the function of quelling internal aggression and hostilities lies exclusively in the hands of the police. Who authorised the invasion of Elzakzaaky's abode and Shrine by soldiers?

b. Only the President and the National Assembly can sanction the deploring of soldiers on internal and internationally assignments. In this index incident, did the President and Commander In Chief give directive for the arrest of the Shiite's leader?

3. THEORIES OF CONSPIRACY AND PRE-MEDITATED KILLING.

a. From the accounts of both the Army Authorities and the Shiite Movement, no life was lost during the road block /exchange of words, on what basis was the military authority provoked into further onslaught on the sect's base and what prompted such action?

b. What was the degree of provocation and resistance that prompted the soldiers to open fire on a civil albeit restive civilian/religious congregation resulting in the death of scores of people?

While the act of civilians or religious organisations using their constitutional freedoms to impede the rights of fellow citizens is repressible and condemnable in totality, adherence to rules of engagements and nation's rule of law on the part of out law enforcement agencies is a norm that must be enshrined in our value system.

The president and the National Assembly must as a matter of priority unravel the reason for this latest Army-Civilian confrontation with the aim of bringing all culprits to justice.

Why can't APC deregulate the downstream sector? What is their problem? As at today people buy fuel between 150-250 naira per litre even with subsidy in place. What difference will N2 deduction make? The open market price of the product is about N91 per litre for God sake. APC should be sane enough.

Please, please and please! Save us these endless rhetorics. Which international image is Buhari restoring? The one that resulted in over 500 Nigerians been deported from Cameroon and Britain? And which corruption is Buhari fighting? The one that encouraged or bred a whopping N8billion REMITA/TSA fraud? Is it the one that spared Ameachi and Fashola from EFCC but focused on opposition elements?

Your messiah promised to diversify the economy but made himself Minister of Petroleum. Why can't he directly oversee Agric or Solid Mineral Ministries instead of focusing on Black gold?

For your information, the revamp of Kaduna and other refineries was kick started by Jona govt , don't attribute it to any body language. I refuse to be hoaxed by this deceitful govt. OK?

Jonathan met petrol price at N65 and left it at N87. Does that tell the story now?
Yes Jona met it at N65 when the global price was fairly stable but he had to effect a reduction when the price slid substantially, hence the reduction from N97 to N87. Now that the price is dangling between $38 and $40, how justifiable is this meagre N2 reduction?

Okechukwu Nnodim, Abuja

The Federal Government may reduce the pump price of petrol to N85 per litre from January 1, 2016.

The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, made this disclosure to journalists at the Port Harcourt Refining Company, Rivers State, after inspecting the plant.

Asked when the Federal Government would release the new petrol price template prepared by the Petroleum Product Pricing Regulation Agency, Kachikwu said that he approved the new price for the agency on Thursday.

Pressed to reveal when the new price would become effective, Kachikwu, said “like I said, we have done a modulation and it is showing us below N87. I imagine that if PPPRA publishes it today, it will become effective immediately. But the 1st of January 2016 is when we are looking at.”

He said the new price would be below the current N87 per litre and it would now convince Nigerians that the pricing modulation that the Federal Government promised to embark on a few days ago was not a trick.

He said, “It (the template) is out, I signed off on it yesterday (Thursday). I imagined that in the next couple of days the marketers would get advice on that. The nice thing about the PPPRA, where I signed up on it yesterday is that the price will be far below N87. So for the first time people will understand that the pricing modulation I was talking about is not a gimmick. It is for real.

“We have gone to find out how we will be able fluctuate this market to reflect what the reality of crude market is. The objective is that one, we cannot afford to continue to subsidise. We can’t even understand where those subsidies were going to. There are a lot of fraud elements in it so we need to cut that of.”

He stated that from the applicable market realities for the pricing modulation, government discovered that petrol would sell for either N85 or N86 per litre.

Kachikwu said, “But in applying that where we landed when we did the analysis for the very first time was about N85 or N86, so it is below N87. And maybe the first price that will come will reflect it. That was why Mr. President said that the price will be N87 for now. And that is what we have in mind.”

This category of nonentities made a terrible mistake, the should have voted for Jesus. Jesus is the only "magician" that can turn Nigeria into paradise in 6 months. If they want their vote back, they should all go to INEC and collect their votes and take the votes to church and vote for Jesus the omnipotent. If PDP gang of thieves used 16 years to destroy Nigeria and used the last 3 months to manufacture Col Sambo Dasuki ATM which was dispensing cash even without debit card, then only Jesus can fix Nigeria within 6 months. Do you wonder why Jesus has refused to fix Nigeria? Jesus hates you all . Jesus hates thieves, robbers, liars, looters and pretenders.
One of the fallouts of PDP's "16-wasted years" is the opening of GSM and internet landscapes. I doubt if you would have been able to afford 3310 phone talk less of using the internet to spew bunkum if we were still in pre-1999 era.
