They are talking as if it has gone back to N200 per litre. They will reduce N20 only and continue to advertise to the whole world that prices have come down angry

Good, so open your own fuel station and help us out by selling it for N100 a liter.

Paper economist indeed. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy
It’s ironic how you seem completely broke and entirely dependent on someone else’s (your boss’s) decision for a meager daily meal . You’re content as long as the next meal is guaranteed, and attitudes like yours are the reason our society continues to regress.

Just as Ebola was once believed to target only the wealthy, I sometimes wish for a virus that selectively affects those with severely underdeveloped mental faculties. It’s exhausting dealing with people who lack even the most basic intellectual capacity.

Your personality is utterly repulsive and irritating. Frankly, Obasanjo should have implemented a law requiring a mental evaluation before anyone could own a mobile phone.

Regarding my assertion that you’re broke, don’t try to counter it by typing words; I need tangible evidence. Feel free to prove me wrong in any way you’d like. I’m in

It doesn't have to go back to 200 but I do agree that in order to effectively curb inflation, the current price of fuel should drastically reduce infact it should be halved. It will have considerable effect towards spurring economic activities.

Currently, we wake every day with cold sweat because uncertainty pervades the air....while our 'liberal guru' of a president commits economic genocide on the masses to the point IMF are asking FG to rethink economic strategies....Pushing the masses to undertake the journey of the palm-wine drinkard.

Let us not decieve ourselves bro. Petrol can't go back to 200 naira in this country. The least it cant go down is 600 naiara which is almost impossible

Someone makes a point....and the first response is abuse, abuse , abuse.

Person wey no abuse am, and he is being abusive to the person.

The truth is, there are far to many little kids here. Both agbado and obident. All they do is abuse. Lost in the abuse is any point they want to make.

Anyway, what do you expect? Petrol must be sold at N40 per liter. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

Can you imagine?

Drop of N50 in fuel is all we need for inflation to reduce?

Mere N50 that has not even reflected in fuel price abi?

Clowns everywhere

Wake up to reality. Fuel price cannot go as low as #200 again. But what I expect a reasonable government to do is to channel all retained subsidy into wealth creation, infrastructural and human capital development. Not forgetting massive investments in security to attract FDI. Provide tax friendly capital for investors to increase output and the overall GDP of the country. But then, I doubt if any Naija president could be that purposeful and intentional, without playing politics with people's lives.

You carry petrol from 200 and something or what again to 1200,
Then you say you cut price from 1200 to 1050 or so and say the reduction will help Nigerians

Well selling fuel at 200 naira per liter means a subsidy of 800 naira per liter must be paid

Which in the long run means about 70% of our budget would go to subsidy every year.

Which means to pay salaries , contractors and to give states their allawee, government may have to borrow 25 trillion naira at least.

Imagine the wondrous effect it would have on our debt profile.

Except that the government doesn't have dollars to give

Plus that's a recipie for more round tripping. Popular during buharis regime and one of the reasons why we even had to remove subsidy in the first place

Petrol subsidy removal is not really the issue now but floating policy.

There is no way inflation will come down with #1700 per dollar.

A man is hungry and in lack yet CBN is counting on interest rate hike to dissuade such a fellow from spending his meagre income to stay afloat. It can never work.

OK, so what is the solution to combat inflation? The man quoted is talking about costs. How to tackle those costs is the question. Any ideas?

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Cost effect wont go away with interest rate hike.

It is better production inputs are subsidized as well as increase production to swell supply against demand. The last will likely lead to export.

Hopefully someone can help me with the answer.

Why can’t NNPC pay Dangote to refine its crude, move it to storage and then distribute or sell at its benchmarked price?
Dangote is a refinery, allowing him source, refine and distribute solely is just reckless.

NNPC should patronize him but also regulate the sector by being his number 1 competitor.

If indeed we are doing more than 1.8mbpd, why can’t we spare 500mb for local consumption.
