the plan of subsidy to be removed has been suspended but the question is what was the minister for finance thinking when she proposed #5000 to 60% of Nigerians as transport allowance monthly?..subsidy is between 130 to 250 billion naira monthly as they said...now giving 60% of Nigerians (i.e 120million Nigerians) #5000 monthly will amount to 720billion monthly...so madam minister for finance are we replacing the subsidy that we claim is too much of a burden to the government with something much higher,about five times higher?..some people should really explain some things to Nigerians...is this really democracy?..cus the government ain't answerable to it's citizens at all...or is there some agenda behind this whole subsidy removal?..too bad though... NIGERIANS DESERVE BETTER..we are educated,don't rule us as if we are dummies!

They are able to do whatever they want because majority of Nigerians are educated docile dummies.

. because transport allowance is temporary while subsidy removal will be permanent

is really transport going to be the major concern?..I think it should be the inflation that comes with it,the businesses dependent on generators for power..this country is a joke and that joke is motivated by wickedness..pay that #5000 for even four months and that subsidy for two years,and they say we don't have money,well no need talking no one is paying any #5000,they just want to loot the subsidy cash..fix power and the complain won't be much!!
