Tunde Bakare To President Tinubu: Are Subsidy Thieves Your Business Partners? by nairavsdollars(f): 12:39pm On Aug 13, 2023 |
By Temidayo Akinsuyi The presiding pastor of Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare has challenged President Bola Tinubu to go after subsidy thieves who have plundered the treasuries of Nigeria in the name of fuel subsidy if truly he is serious about fighting corruption. He also admonished Tinubu to kill corruption and not Nigerians. The cleric cum politician made these observations on Sunday while delivering his State of the Union address at his church in Lagos which was monitored by QUESTTIMES. Recalled that the president in his nationwide address on Monday, July 31 had said subsidy monies are being funneled into the deep pockets and lavish bank accounts of a select group of individuals over the years. In his words “For several years, I have consistently maintained the position that the fuel subsidy had to go. This once beneficial measure had outlived its usefulness. “The subsidy cost us trillions of Naira yearly. Such a vast sum of money would have been better spent on public transportation, healthcare, schools, housing, and even national security. Instead, it was being funneled into the deep pockets and lavish bank accounts of a select group of individuals,” he said. While addressing the congregants, Bakare who asked the president some salient questions on the subsidy removal also wondered why the president has not taken any action to go after the fraudsters and recover the monies from them. Bakare said, “Fellow Nigerians, what is further clear concerning our domestic challenges is that by imposing hardship on Nigerians, without going after those corrupt individuals, corporations, and government officials who have plundered Nigeria over the years in the name of subsidy, the president has picked the wrong fight”. “In his Monday, July 31 2023 address to the nation, the president stated that the vast sum of money which could have been better spent on public transportation, healthcare, schools, housing, and even national security was been funneled into the deep pockets and bank accounts of some select few individuals. The president further stated that the subsidy removal policy was to stop the smuggling of money by fraudsters”. “This compelled us to ask the following salient questions: Who are these groups of individuals into whose pockets our national treasuries have been funneled? Who are the fraudsters and smugglers that have been defrauding our nation in the name of subsidy? Who are these nameless characters that have fed fat at the expense of the poor?” “Mr. President, are they your business partners or are they all sacred cows? Mr. President, if you are truly on the side of the poor, if you are serious about the welfare of the people, if you truly want the poor to breathe as you once said, then kill corruption and not Nigerians”. https://thequesttimes.com/tunde-bakare-to-president-tinubu-are-subsidy-thieves-your-business-partners/ 1 Like

When will Nigerians learn that the so-called subsidy thieves/cabal are boogeymen politician uses to justify hike in petrol prices? The reason they can't mention the names of the so-called cabal is because it is all made up. Any politician talking about subsidy thieves is either foolish or lying. Companies involved in importing petrol are not secret, any decent journalist can get their list. I know some people will start blabbing about corruption. Is there no corruption in road construction, salary payment(ghost workers), education and health sector? Instead of this dubious politicians to say they want to remove subsidy because they need more money, they lie about cabals and corruption. They claimed subsidy is a "scam", yet the economy is crashing after removing the so-called "scam". 9 Likes 1 Share |

Tinubu handle every section with cares and wiseness. Imagine he unified naira and world Bank are already praising him for it. He Removed subsidy and we all see how IMF are also praising him for it predicting that our economy will grow faster than before. He has paid back some loans that Jonathan borrow. Now, he has doubled the allocations that every states receive. ( If nothing changes in your state, hold your governor responsible) Light has been good in my area, if it's not good In Your area, hold your governor for it. I'm very sure he is cooking new minimum wages for civil servant too. |

ivolt: What is stopping you from getting the list?! Are you also afraid? The advocacy for the removal of subsidy has been on for ages. It didn't start today. IMF, World Bank, and other reputable economic and financial institutions have advised for the removal so many times before now. This institutions have no political affiliation other than stating the obvious. You are pointless with your narrow perspective. |

Zxcvbnmghtr:My post was not for lazy folks. The list of oil importers is actually public! You won't die if you search for it. Tinubu said he could have asked for his own share of subsidy "scam". Who exactly was he referring to? He must think we are all fools.
So because fuel subsidy removal has been on for ages, that must make it right? IMF, "World Bank" are all profit-making loan companies who make recommendations based on their personal interests. A loan company is interested in repayment of loans and profit for shareholders! No country has ever developed by blindly following external advice like mumu without thinking about domestic issues first. |

I cannot imagine going to a Business Center called Church after the head used 100 Million Naira of Tithes and Offerings to buy Zero votes at APC Convention after his "god" told him that Buhari will handover to him.
