Was Govt Using Cooking Gas To Subsidize Petrol? by Biodun556(op): 9:10am On Jun 14, 2023
cool

Crashes is cooking gas price is mysterious. I noticed that 12 kg was 3000+ before 2015. Nigerians need to ask a lot of questions.

Where is the excess realized from gas price increase ?

What is the source of money used in subsidizing petrol?

How was the forex realized from crude oil export spent?


It is now clearer that there's alternative to petrol, CNG is far cheaper and is locally produced, why was government not interested in exploiting the alternative rather than spending hundreds of trillions of naira on subsidy?

Was Buhari even aware that NNPCL is also in charge of gas?

Gas is abundantly produced in Nigeria. Why was it so costly with high margin?

So what's causing it?

Tinubu's body language?
Demand and supply forces?
Competition from new marketers?
Intl price crash?

The govt and the NNPC are the faceless cabal running ans ruining the affairs of the country. This APC led govt of the previous and now are evil minded. They came in and took the subsidy payment personal which explains why subsidy payments and petrol consumption mysteriously increased. They came to loot and enrich themselves. Gold mining and other solid minerals massively mined in Zamfara, Niger and Nassarawa states under the cover of banditry. And then a new govt comes in with the pretext of trying to correct all the wrongs by now doing the same things they were doing in a completely different way

Price of LNG is being quoted in dollar..International pricing model. Any disruption in supply chain of gas would cause price increase.

A negative mind will always attract negative events. Be possible and stop carrying unnecessary burden that can lead you to boredom
