The 13% derivation you are presently getting is enough to transform the Niger Delta! There's NDDC, with a Federal Ministry to boot, yet nothing to show for the Niger Delta! I'm afraid every additional revenue to the Niger Delta will traverse the same route, private pockets!

cy4cent:
in as much as we want change, some persons shouldn't be saying things the general has not

promised, thereby raising unnecessary expectations.
we will be glad if it happens but let it come from him, n let him be inaugurated first!!!

Until February when the Naira virtually got murdered, Venezuela, Egypt, Saudi, Qatar, Kuwait, Turkmenistan, Bahrain, Libya, and a few others had pump price at about N40/L or less.

Even now, pump price is still roughly N4/L (u heard that right 4Naira/L) in Venezuela,N22/L in Libya, N32/L in Saudi.

They still get free gas to all households in Turkmenistan, and 120 Litres free petrol every month (not sure if they still give out that much lately).

JUBILEE2000:
The cabals you are talking about are not faceless. no group of persons no matter how powerful will hold this country to ransom anymore!!!!

barcanista:
oga you don't just wake up to cut down or increase the pump price of pms. This has to do with increasing or decreasing the % of government for the subsidy(as the case may be). In the petroleum sector, we have the problem of cabals that import the product and charges the government. These cabals work in tandem with civil servants and other public servants that are in their payroll to ensure that they get their way. If government is to cut the pump price, it means it has to increase %earnings of the cabals to make up for the citizens. Now considering the fall in global oil price and how it affected our revenue, and the effect it will have on our relative scarce resources, do you think increament in the subsidy is feasible?

The only solution is total removal BUT you have to put paliatives in place to reduce the resultant pains(whicj will be temporary) and then build refineries to be run by private firms or jointly wt government(considering how we poorly manage our own). The problem here is that the same cabals will do all within their powers to sabotage the effort to build refineries. Also, the public income may not be able to service it, the option left will be loan-which comes with its resultant effect. What happens "if" the money is mismanaged or diverted?

Importantly, how feasible will this be considering the numerous "unrealistic" social programs/proposals of the Buhari incoming administration?

did you hear it from GMB?
since when did you hear him appoint tom west as spikes person?
next time you quoting anyone, look at the content of what you quoting before you type!!!!!

Mr professional interviewee !!!!!!!!

tomakint:
Buhari is not OPEC and he is not World Bank, this incoming government needs lot of funds both locally and internationally to execute its many projects and I don't think selling pump price of PMS @ N40 per litre is part of it......yes he can reduce it a little but no he can't try the N40 mark. Our 70% budget allocations on recurrent expediture and 30% budget spending on capital expediture is killing!

smsdigito:
West hope u are not setting bars that will be too high for GMB to jump? why not allow this come from the horses' mouth? Dont put baba under high pressure to perform let him tk his time

Bawss1:
You are listing countries that subsidise the cost of petrol for their citizens, this wouldn't have been a problem except that we all agree that subsidies are ultimately counter productive, should not be in place for a very long and have to go sometime.

Go back and look through countries that don't have any subsidy on petrol, which is what I stated in my initial post, and check if any of them buy petrol for N40/litre.

who is your friend? Lol

miccodb:
Is English so difficult?? can we both review our responses to ascertain who is amiss?? for your own good pray never to be interviewed by a me!!!

eziokwu2015:
If we maintain a lean/ moderate govt both at the state house/ presidency and NASS, its possible to subsidize fuel cost, health cost, transportation cost, provide adequate energy to the citizens and even loan to other African Nations. We can grow our reserves to $100 Billion (if we are prudent)

If this happens, Nigerians will never forget the favor, because this will bring about a fall in prices of goods, commodities and services..I jst imagined me boarding a cab for #20 again, buying things @ a price much cheaper than they are now ..it feels great!

poppincash:

Bawss1:
Subsidy will not help in growing the country's reserves. It is ideally a temporal measure till the industry it is applied is roboust enough. I am no expert on these matters but I can tell you that if it's subsidy which you are advocating for then this country will continue to remain the way it has always been.

teufelein:
i'll keep asking the same question upon the time somebody shall be meciful enough to give a satisfactory answer. where'll apc get the money to finance all the promises? there'll be no crude oil and natural gas to sell to make the money.
