This is what happens when you put aside something that should have been done for decades till it gets too too worse.

This subsidy of a thing should have gone since 1993, if not earlier. By now, we would have adjusted, and moved on. Instead, we are facing the thing we should have faced decades ago.

Anyway it is gone for good now, hopefully. And yeah high prices are very painful.....but the pain of being so broke that no one would give you any more loans....as seen in Sri Lanka recently....is far far worse.

Redman44:
Very soon, your children might not be able to eat 50 naira chin chin again. 50 naira biscuits and chinchin might become a thing of the past if care is not taken in Nigeria. If flour prices increase again due to fuel subsidy removal, bread will become unaffordable for many Nigerians. Start praying that fuel price will reduce to at least 300 naira. Cheers.

nairalanda1:


So you think that governemt should force businesses to operate at a loss to help the poor.

It was tried before in what used to be communist countries. They all collapsed as a result or went free market

Marketers have to sell at a profit because millions of Nigerians who help.bring you the petrol have to make a decent living. Not just the cabals.

It seems you want to deny them that right, Comrade Leader

Kukutenla:

You just keep mumbling words together. What exactly does communism, Nazi, National socialist have to do with your lies? Why introduce labels if not because you're a propaganda machine?

If you're poor, then one can understand why you're looking to pull more people into your bracket through helping the government to fleece them off their monies through oil cabals.

Which filing stations closed? Do you disagree that we have more functional filling stations all over Nigeria than we have churches and mosques combined? Give me a yes or no not some vague answer.
Corruption is rife under subsidy because Nigerian leaders live, eat and breath Corruption.
Was there subsidy in aviation before the former minister scammed us with Nigeria Air?
Is it subsidy that made a former accountant General swallow 80bn like tom-tom?
Tell your story to the marines

sapele914:
How can they sell fuel @ a loss, when the Federal Government is the entity bearing the burden all in the name of fuel subsidy?

headboyprince:
DEY PLAY... DEY WHAT... DEY PLAY... Nigerians have been sufefring since memorial.. and their suffering keep increasing..and you're here spilling trash of suffer today, enjoy tommorrow.. can such ever happen in this country.. remmeber naira redesign suffering, i guess you're enjoying the after math right now...

olatade:
If we all love Nigeria, nobody will do anything to distract Tinubu at this critical time.

dalaman:


You have been forced to suffer, your leaders have been enjoying since when you were born, while most Nigerians have been suffering. Even with Fuel subsidy Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world, the second most terrorised country in the world and one of the country with the lowest life expectancy. Suffering is what Nigerians are used to. Removing subsidy unfortunately will only worsen the situation. There is nothing much Tinubu can do to make things get better, he hasn't shown that he can do much for now.

Healthquest:
Since gas price is now down, we expect petrol price to come down by the time we have many importers

Lanty01:
Labour should just go and sit down

jesmond3945:

As expected..

Stop wasting your time with empty delusions. He will be president for the next 4 years unless if he dies or something happens and the country no longer remains the same.

Una dey mad. When Jonathan tried doing the same in 2012,u lots were shouting crucify him,crucify him. Okan yin o ni bale.

patrickcollins:
Which Nigerians are ready to suffer, why are the ruling class not ready to suffer.
Since Nigeria has been declared broke, national assemblies should fit the bill of their bogus lifestyle, they should buy their own vehicle from their salary, buy their furnitures too, the president and ministers should do same. What about the security votes they collect for doing nothing.

fineboynl:
Fuel shouldn’t exceed 300. What we have is low quality and inferior fuel

So government should seize peoples lands and resources in the name of capitalism and then drain the resources (crude in this case), with the attendant environmental and social destruction to the owners of the land, and then shout "government is not in the business of business" when told to account for how they use the resources or at least allow the people with the resources enjoy the benefits of their resources. Is that communism or capitalism?

SmartyPants:
Food manufacturers and transporters mainly use diesel not petrol so I'm wondering why they should increase prices if not for taking advantage of situations.

Standing5:
Govt never set any price for anyone.
What happened with petrol subsidy was a case of the govt picks a price and pays you what ever difference is between theirs and your final price. The subsidy was being paid as claimed by marketers. Govt never forced anyone to sell at a loss. What the marketers wanted was the space to make claims for bogus profits and when that didn't materialize, smuggling out to sell at higher prices than govt subsidized rate within Nigeria was the only option.
That's why Buhari tried to make NNPC the sole importer of fuel or force any other importer to not claim they are bringing in their above NNPC's imported fuel price.

Stop lying around dude.
