Didn't you criticised and protested when GEJ removed same subsidy? Any way it is good you removed it, and in so doing confirmed how weak GEJ was. But the positive effects of the removal is yet to be felt, rather you are pressing people's neck with tax and porverty.

Truly you should rejoice
Only once in a generation does a leader have the opportunity to lead mugus who are daft enough to swallow his hypocrisy and about-turn like yours.
From organizing and goading them against subsidy removal to economically immolating and demobilizing them with same fuel subsidy removal in a span of two decades, yet they roll out the drums to dance and thank you for counting them worthy to be your economic and social guinea pigs
But the hard fact remains that no truly viable nation is built on hypocrisy of the leaders and sycophancy of a mob of brainwashed followers who believe that every fart from their god is a glorious burst of deodorant
I congratulate you once again. They will remember you as the man who rode on their backs to political eldorado. But what will history see you as?
You're obviously one of the mugus of that's the lens through which your seeing Nigerians. Although,I wouldn't really blame you because you can not reason beyond your level of thinking.

Those who know and have seen the positive effects of his directions are already asking whether sensible leaders like him still exist to take over from him in the next five years when he'll be done with his second term.

It's okay to go against the crowds but you must do that reasonably and not come out to wash your dirty linen in the open.

Your fuel subsidy removal was definitely not funny to most Nigerians. You sent a lot of struggling Nigerians to their early graves and made paupers of another great lot. Nigerians are still greatly affected negatively by your action.

Positive effects should be seen by all, you don't need a microscope to see it. If you need data boys and propaganda tools to show the country you are working, then it is a clear indication you have failed.

This dunce forgot how he criticized Jonathan and his administration

This old dunce rallied his tribesmen to Ojota and carried coffin for Jonathan..

what a dunce
Yes he critized Jonathan but he was critized too? Jonathan was not sure of what he wanted and he buckled. Tinubu was sure of what he wanted and he stood firm. So who is the greater leader?

Honestly, he need not exhaust himself. They are less interested in facts and more committed to marketing their neatly packaged fraud to Nigerians.

As for the philosophy third class credentials being paraded about, one begins to wonder whether the lectures were attended in person or by proxy, because I don't understand how a graduate doesn't know difference between venom and anti-venom.

Jonathan had no clear purpose in governance, he was totally clueless. The new tax law is a great initiative from Tinubu. It was the old tax that was neck pressing with duplicity and manipulation may be you are not working yet. True, we are not yet there but there is clear purpose of direction....

Tinubu knew removing subsidy was right

but he opposed what was right because of politics, what an evil

He deceived the likes of Adeboye, Soyinka, etc to protest against what was that right,

Re: Fuel Subsidy Removal: Criticism From Nigerians Was High Voltage – Tinubu by Moneyyman: 7:19am On Mar 04
Removing the subsidy was always a necessity.

Removing it all at once? Madness!

The sensible thing to do was stagger the removal in three trenches of 30%, 30%, and 40%. That would give the markets time to adjust and Nigerians the safety to adjust their finances.

You plunged millions of people further into poverty. Businesses shut down. People sold family heirlooms and inheritance just to feed; they might never recover.
Re: Fuel Subsidy Removal: Criticism From Nigerians Was High Voltage – Tinubu by razzydoo(m): 7:21am On Mar 04
Your comment is spot on. I think the vision was conceived long ago. So when the Refinery was set, fuel subsidy could go.A lot of people complained about lack of cushioning but the Refinery is there for that purpose.
Adblg0610:
While President Bola Tinubu is right that removing fuel subsidies was necessary and inevitable for Nigeria’s long-term economic stability, it is important to stress that what has truly helped cushion the resulting hardship is the operational impact of the Dangote Refinery.
In as much as subsidy removal is desirable for fiscal sustainability, the real mitigation of severe economic pressure on Nigerians comes from local refining capacity, which reduces import dependence, eases forex strain, and helps stabilize fuel supply and prices.

To those Obidients claiming he removed it, you are wrong, President Buhari effectively removed it by not making provisions for it in the budget and President Tinubu announced it.

He did agree with the policy as it was right and proper, guess who also would have done the same, yup Peter Obi. However, that didn't stop hypocritical Obidients from abusing the President for doing something sensible that thieving PDP, now ADC, governments didn't care to put a stop to.

Why would you start a business and expect the government to be paying you a fortune for running it over and over again. Only in Nigeria sha would people complain that the government was wrong to be giving private enterprises money yanfu yanfu.
Re: Fuel Subsidy Removal: Criticism From Nigerians Was High Voltage – Tinubu by Fujiyama: 7:56am On Mar 04
This is falsehood.

BAT was still paying subsidy several months after he took over power. But of course he couldn't admit that to Nigerians - so this immoral tale of 'boldness' was packaged and sold instead.

As some others here have pointed out, the only reason BAT can crow about fuel subsidy to Nigerians is because the Dangote refinery came on stream. If that refinery didn't start production, BAT would still be paying subsidy today - and claiming to do otherwise.
Re: Fuel Subsidy Removal: Criticism From Nigerians Was High Voltage – Tinubu by BrickandLace(f): 8:06am On Mar 04
I doubt Tinubu made this statement.

Such an evil lie filled with premium arrogance and hypocrisy.

Maybe fake news.
