Whoever worked to bring this APC curse on Nigerians must be punished.

And they are bolding telling Nigerians that Tinubu will continue from where Buhari stopped?

God forbid.
Funny enough the inflation is affecting both APC supporters and none supporters. So tell me why won't I support the person who will librate Nigeria and make it great again irrespective of tribe.

Vote OBiDATTi to reposition Nigeria. Tinubu is old and cant function well. Rather he will rule by proxy.

How many times will this subside be removed?I recall PMB took Patrol price form N87 to N143 sighting subside removal.

SmartPolician:
If we are honest in this country, the government has to partially remove PMS subsidy to save her from huge financial burden.

If these idiotic APC members had allowed Jonathan to remove PMS subsidy, we would have saved this country a lot of money.

Save the money for who?

We have borrowed over 15 Trillion, are you saying we have anything to show for that amount presently in Nigeria?

If we had money to offset those things we borrowed money to do, there wouldn't be any need to borrow. That's where savings come in.

Airlines hve reduced the no of flights due to fewer passengers flying. Then they hiked the price for few flights to create resemblance of scarcity. Naija.

As for me i rather pay 200k for return flight than pay kidnappers 100million

Now it's only those with very legitimate reasons to travel that fly. Not even all legitimate reasons but financially rewarding ones.

And someone is talking about saving money from subsidy, even with the subsidy removed, we will still borrow, and we won't be better off.

This will put more money in the hands of government..... TO DO WHAT WITH IT.
Remember it is the common man paying oh.
Remove subsidy and the airports will completely close. No one will afford to travel as inflation will surely hit 30 to 40%.

So, do the citizens of this country trust the government to spend the money from subsidy removal well, particularly to their benefit.
Do they control the way the government spends presently.
Look at the big budget expenditure, the civil service.... how many people does it employ..... but that is where the subsidy money will go.
Look at the big budget projects, the rail system.... how many people does it carry or employ..... but that is where the subsidy money will go.
Will it pay for better education?.... uncertain, because government appears no to want to honour the agreement with ASUU, etc.
Will it pay for better social services.... uncertain, because government has not accounted for what it has spent so far.
Will it pay for better healthcare..... uncertain, because government has not accounted for the huge pandemic resources received and spent.

That is the problem.
We have descended into a bad economy we the citizens did not directly contribute towards destroying so no one is prepared to contribute by sacrifice to rebuilding. Give them more money and more cars will be given to Niger Republic they say. This government does not understand that it has to walk the talk to get everyone in line to help it.

You have a point sir. But until we fix the avenues they use to embezzle funds or atleast make it unattractive to steal from the government, the money might no get repurposed, instead might get shared or stolen as usual.

You have said it all: our biggest challenge is that we don't trust the government to do the right thing. TBH, this government is spending so much to subsidize PMS. They can take a significant fraction of that subsidy and invest it other areas such as the airline industry. This industry must not die because it has created jobs for many Nigerians.

The biggest mistake Buhari made was borrowing to fix railways. The funds should have gone to power - a move that can significantly improve our economy. What's even more scary is that our earnings are not enough to offset our debts. Nigeria needs someone who perfectly understands the economy to run it as a profit-oriented company.

Lies. I just came back from Abuja. Flight to and fro was 130k. I know it's expensive for many but nowhere near 200k that the op is saying, stop peddling half truth just to drive traffic and clickbaits.

And the airport is not deserted, there are those who still board flight even when it's expensive.
