And as he removed subsidy how much has he saved so far? Where is the savings?
Has borrowing stopped?

Rather the naira has become almost useless and heading towards the way of Zimbabwe.


I was told fish now cost 5000 in Nigeria right now.
I hard it's now difficult to feed now in Nigeria, food has gone up.


Please let's have some sense please.
Yes, you are on your way to realizing why tinubu is a bad leader.

Countireis with strong currencies are countries that rely heavily on manufacturing and exporting manufactured goods, meaning they can set their prices, and earn far more forex than just selling oil.

Tinubu is a bad leader because he supported a buhari that did nothign about expanding domestic manufacturing, and since he took power, na same story.

The economy has not collapsed, other wise you won't see food in the markets, and there would be queues for everything, and no money for salaries, and queues everywhere, and total anarchy.

Also, acting like a primary school student says that you don't have much to refute my points.
Food that is out of the reach of the average citizen.
At least when there was queue we can comfortably purchase it now fuel is 1k5 we can’t even buy 10liters with out lamenting, the salary paid now is worthless, it hasn’t gotten to the stage of anarchy yet, the country is in chaos. You will be remember on nairaland for bring doom upon us with your subsidy removal narrative

My family friends own about 15 filling station, the business barely managing. The price fluctuations has literally crumbled the business.
I can't go into the business, no longer profitable 🤷🏿
Really? I thought anything oil and gas is profitable, since no matter the price people will always buy?

Yeah, and if we had kept the subsidy, there won't have been money for anything at all.

You really don't get it, and that's that.

Adieu.

Someon even responded that it's selling for
60,750,000 naira now in matrix dapo.
Yes I agree with 60million. ₦68000,000 means they are not making any profit. In fact they sell at ₦111 a loss at the the pump price if ₦1400 per litre.

Your talk doesn't make sense! Tinubu did what? What is the actual price of PMS? Or you don't want to pay the actual price? Who will pay the balance? Are people in Togo, Ghana, Benin etc not paying the actual price? are they not citizens of their countries too? Oga, if Nigeria tire you, japa!
You're not to blame. The world is Left and Right. You belong to the left. That's why you reason left. If you think Tinubu handled it well, even with the comparison I put there. Then I can't help you, locos

This post perfectly shows how government policies crush everyday people. Imagine starting a business with ₦8m in 2023—now you need over ₦60m just to keep it afloat. That means you’ve been running at a loss, pouring everything back in just to match the rising capital costs, with zero profit.
Think about the food sellers and petty traders grinding through buy-and-sell. These policies have robbed them of their capital. Picture families going hungry because they’ve lost their livelihoods. Or those who couldn’t bear the shame and heartbreak of failing after years of hustle. Damn, this government is cruel and unapologetic. Vote wisely everyone.

Run for your life.

A liter was 220 May 29 2023 morning.
Emilokan subsidy is gone 520. Remember there was scarcity.
A truck is 45K liters.
45,000*220= 9,900,000
45,000*520= 23,400,000
Instant difference of= 13,500,000.

Now, calculate price fluctuations of 50,70,150

You sef go confirm am. Check number of tankers on the highway has dropped, number of pump attendants has dropped.
Before Iran war, it's around 800+, now 1350-1400.
If you are a business Man🤷🏿, you go understand better. Check some of the quotes on the thread.

Don't let go of it, carry it to the poll and vote out that criminal of a president.

Nigeria will be OK.
Okay won’t be on the ballot.

Amupitan’s INEC and Wike’s courts will ensure that they are not allowed to be on the ballots.

Wike Boasts Of Helping APC Use Judiciary To Kill Osun LG Funds Case, Warns Party Leaders Against Ingratitude

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has openly boasted that he assisted certain elements within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in deploying the judiciary to frustrate the Osun State local government allocation lawsuit.

In a video now circulating widely on social media and obtained by SaharaReporters, Wike made the claim while addressing a crowd in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

The former Rivers governor accused the APC National Secretary, Senator Ajibola Basiru, of benefitting from judicial actions against the Osun State Government without knowing those who did the work behind the scenes.

The suit in question led to the withholding of local government funds in Osun State, a development widely seen as targeting the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke as opposition in the state.

Wike, who spoke angrily, suggested that the court action supporting the APC’s position against the Osun government did not happen by chance, boasting that powerful political forces worked quietly to ensure the outcome.

“Don’t take our support for Mr President for granted,” Wike warned, in an apparent message to APC leaders defending Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara. “You have to be careful about the statements you make. You have to be very careful.”

He accused Basiru of political ingratitude, claiming the APC was enjoying in Osun State without understanding who engineered their advantage.

“Today, you are enjoying in Osun. You don’t know those who did the work,” Wike said. “You are opening your mouth to talk about Rivers State.”

All these countries largely import from China.


Stop giving excuses.

What was Nigeria producing when Yar'Adua was president?
Let's agree that since Buhari came onboard things started changing negatively because of bad policies


Interesting things is that

Tinubu continued from where he stopped and did worse off

It's only ignorant and uninformed people that will fall for this, the rise in the cost of petrol was due to removal of subsidy, which all economists has been calling for and all the other top two presidential candidates in the last general election vowed to remove if voted for and till date they haven't change that decision.

The removal of fuel subsidy is not in the best interest of Nigerians...

What has been achieved with the removal of fuel subsidy since the past 3 years.

Nigerians have been hungry, poorer and insecurity has been on the rise since fuel subsidy was removed in 2023.

The policy should be looked into and better alternatives should be considered as the hardship is unbearable

If you don't want to be mentioned, why not keep you comment to yourself. Must everyone follow your line of thoughts?

I am sure that person that created this thread did not direct the thread at you.

Allow people to freely express themselves Mr man.
