Ft Go and read the report about the payment of subsidy in 2024/2025
I dont have to read anything, With Dangote in the Mix, govt cant pay subsidy because its just realistic.
For over 2yrs now Dangote controls the price, are you saying govt subsidy marketers fuel just so they can also sell at Dangote price ... makes no sense

If Tinubu as the president and petroleum minister is not paying subsidy till tomorrow, then why is he borrowing more than PDP presidents who gave us cheap petrol and less unemployment, less insecurity etc huh

If he is borrowing more than PDP presidents after hitting his higher revenue target in August then what else is he doing with all the money apart from stealing it? Stealing money to buy votes and bribe politicians for 2027 and a 3rd term agenda.

Burrowing doesn't prove that he's paying subsidies. You have all the megaprojects like This Superhighway and That Superhighway to gobble up every dollar they can find. And, like you said, elections are coming up and aren't going to fund themselves.

From October 2023-February 2024, government was paying subsides on petrol. They never went until after Feb 2024.

Dangote doesn't control the price of fuel, the market determines it. One has a choice to buy Dangote fuel or imported fuel, and many choose dangote fuel.

Here in Abuja, dangote petrol is N839. Imported fuel goes for N875-900.

Kindly check this news report below.
Read the article, not the headline. The article doesn't say 17.5 spent on pipelines protection.

This is how those at the top play with people's minds. They know many people do not read

Subsidy is gone and not coming back move on

Country. Local Pump Price Converted Price (₦/L)
Nigeria ₦870 – ₦950. ₦870 – ₦950
Ghana GHS 10 – 13. ₦1,300 – ₦1,700
Benin (CFA) 650 – 700 XOF ₦1,625 – ₦1,750
Togo (CFA) 650 – 700 XOF ₦1,625 – ₦1,750
Niger (CFA) 500 – 540 XOF ₦1,250 – ₦1,350
Cameroon (CFA) 730 – 780 XOF ₦1,825 – ₦1,95


That is the price difference today from our neighbours

People in Berlin Republic feed their families by crossing the border illegally to buy petrol


Imagine when it was 300 naira


As long as that differential exists we will continue subsidising our neighbours

In as much as there are elements of truth in his positions but these northerners are funny. They were all quiet when PMB was in charge.


FG need to open up on how much it has been saving from subsidy.
Did Buhari remove subsidy? Did Buhari pay 17.5 trilllon to protect pipelines?
I wonder how some of you people reason.

That's what you get when someone(Tinubu) decides to leave the core problem and focus on cosmetic solution because of dirty politics, how can you remove subsidy then channel the funds to share and buy state governors to join APC.

The problem of Nigeria petrol was not the subsidy but the corruption that was going on in the subsidy that he was supposed to tackle, instead of tackling the corruption, he channeled the corruption into growing a bigger corruption, the citizens are paying more, the borrowings are more while the politicians are getting more money from the corruption..
If the money generated from subsidy was used to "buy state Governors" to join APC, are the Governors originally in APC complaining of lack of fund or begging for bailout to pay workers salary like in Buhari's regime? Is Soludo who's in APGA begging for bailout despite the fact that he's in the opposition?
You will spend the next ten years trying to demarket this Government but you won't succeed.

I dont know why people just love to Argue, i am not here to drag period or season Subsidy stopped .. My point is Subsidy is gone

Dangote doesnt control price ..really! who 1st announce Pms to be sold for #945

and if It is Int'l market price that decides truly why are marketers always lashing out at Dangote anytime he announces is own fuel price

Lastly, what Dangote did last december 2025 slashed PmS to 739 ... please juxtapose the price with the int'l market price as at that december undecided

I'm not trying to demarket the government, I'm only saying the truth as it looks like, and I still believe subsidy is still being paid from time to time.

So if that's what the truth looks like to you, that's your problem. not mine...

Are you comfortable with the N7.13 trillion for securing the pipeline?

Are you comfortable with the N8.67 trillion for subsidies that Jagaban of Borgu said he removed in May 2023 huh
Re: Subsidy Removal Nurtured Corruption, Big Scam – Mahdi Shehu by Zico5(m): 3:14pm On Feb 04
They removed subsidy with the promise to end corruption and excessive borrowing but the same government has borrowed even more that Buhari 8 years in government. Tinubu administration is the biggest scam in the history of this country.
