Why Is Fuel Now Cheapest In SW & Very Costly In North? by proeast(m): 2:51pm On May 31, 2023
I just saw NNPC new list and it showed that fuel will be sold cheapest in the South West and most costly in the North. Why such wickedness? Is it because Tinubu is a Yoruba man and has decided to punish other Nigerians more?

Is this what emilokan is all about?

Already, three of the people he has employed to work for him are all Yorubas!

I hope it's not what I'm thinking because Nigerians will collectively resist him and his bigotry.

Below is the new price list from NNPC!

It's the proximity to Lagos State. Let's be objective. Are you from the North, I mean from like the state of the Vice President, Borno state? Is that why you are complaining?

It’s because SW is closer to the port.

They will factor in transportation cost and etc into the prices too.

Now that NNPC already released official statement on the price adjustment, the market conditions will now dictate the price of petrol by each station as it is obtained in USA for example.

President Tinubu should now urgently address the nation and let us know what modalities is in place to help the masses adjust by to this and what benefit they will derive from this Subsidy removal

People need to start feeling the impact of the help from FG ASAP.

I salute his courage tho. If he eventually succeed in this totally, he has done what other president can’t do since 1999.

Proximity or not, it doesn't make sense! Nigerians in all regions have same minimum wage. Fuel is a basic necessity in Nigeria upon which other factors of production rely upon.

When you give SW such unfair advantage, you make other regions less viable and less productive relative to SW.

If this government want to favour only Yorubas against other Nigerians then he should be ready because Nigerians will collectively resist him!

He can't transfer Nigeria's wealth to his people alone at the expense of Hausas, Igbos, Tivs, Fulanis, Ibibios etc.

This sort of bigotry was why Awolowo was never allowed to rule Nigeria. Anyways, let's watch and see.

Tinubu will transfer wealth to everybody because he is not a bigot like that Peter Obi who is a pretender of national repute.

Awolowo is a leader than no Ibo man dead or alive can overshadow. That’s a fact!

Yorubaman, will you say the same thing if fuel is cheapest in other places and most costly in SW?

Peter Obi will cow at the end if he had implemented it. He would have rushed back to reverse it like Jonathan because he dosen’t have that balls.

If they do small protest in Lagos and threaten him, he will come crying on TV reversing his decision.

I always look at people that blame Tinubu for Jonathan weakness. Opposition will always oppose, a strong government proceed with his plan of its very sure it’s for the greater good.

Jonathan is a very nice man but he is a weak president. He shouldn’t have caved in to the threats back then.

Bro it is the market condition. Think nao!

Food is less costly in the North and more costly in the SW. How many times have you seen me as a Yoruba man blame the Hausa and Buhari for that?

That’s because the food originate from the North. They will factor in transportation cost which will make it costlier when it get down south. It’s basic economics and you don’t need too much thinking to deduce that.

Every region have their own comparative advantage. It is not Yoruba people that says your Ibo ancestors should choose land without access to the Ocean.

Stop trying to be smart, Nigerians are not fools either!

Why will fuel be 500 per litre in Ekiti that is inland, and does not even have a litre of crude oil but 515 in Akwa Ibom that is a coastal state and major oil producing state too? How do you explain that?!

The reason is the same why food is costlier in Lagos than in Kebbi for example.

Akwa Ibom government get their 13% derivative which differentiate them from other states.

Continue trying to be smart by half. Food is grown more in the North but is fuel gotten from the SW? So why using such ridiculous comparison?

If fuel should be cheapest anywhere in Nigeria using your analogy, it should be in the SS!

Just know that Nigerians are no fools and we won't accept such crass tribalism in government.

one way of doing this is to make people pay more for the same service that is obtainable nationwide. This is more like devaluing the currency in some parts of country against the same currency in another part , like I said let's watch how it plays out.

Yes, fuel will be lesser in the SW because of the close proximity to the Lagos ports. The port in Lagos is currently more efficient that those in the SS for now and that is not the problem of Tinubu coz he wasn’t your president until 2 days ago.

By the way, so you mean Tinubu was the one that instructed the petroleum marketers to sell less in the SW because he is a tribalist that want Yoruba to pay less? Does that make any sense to you?

It comes in through the SW and needs extra transportation to get to the north, thus the extra cost. You may also have noticed it gets costlier as you go from Abuja to the northern border.
