Nigerians would have to buy fuel at N145 a litre, following the removal of fuel subsidy.

Until the removal which was made on Wednesday, May 11, the official price of petrol was N87 per litre although consumers have been paying as much as N200 for fuel due to scarcity.

Nigerians have taken to social media, raising their voices in anger against the new development. For many, it is a big slap on their faces. They claim that they have been ripped-off, for them, this was not the change they were promised.

Below are comments made by Nigerians on social media, in reaction to the new pump price.

Jerry Ike Udeh said: “Where is stupid Tam David West that said fuel pump price will be 40naira if Buhari win election, I am just sorry for the poor masses.”

According to Ofonime Sam Uwem, Goodluck meant well for this country (Nigeria). “If Buhari can concede to the removal of fuel subsidy which he claimed he knew nothing about and doesn’t know who was subsidizing who… then I think he is very smart as well for being able to deceive his gullible followers that subsidy was fraud,” Ofonime opined.

Emem Emmanuel said: “Naija how una see am. I hope the 45% gullible people in in this country will wake up now and stop calling sai baba in their sleep. Imagine even fuel is unaffordable now even when there’s no money to buy it. God help Nigeria.”

“I dnt know the kind of government we have this time around, selling fuel N145 Will it solve the Nigerian problem, how much re u paying workers? How much is minimum wage? There is no atom of reasoning,” Festus Ikwuka lamented.

Patrick Offor was of the opinion that “All Buhari supporters will ever be comfortable with it. They will say it’s a measure to uplift the economy of the country. But they took to the streets when GEJ did the same. I hope things don’t get tougher.”

For Chidosky Chidi, voting for APC was his biggest mistake, one which he says he now regrets.

Obinna Chukwu advised that “Buhari should humble himself and ask Jonathan how he managed to keep dollar at 180 against the naira, how he managed to improve the electricity supply, how he managed to stabilise fuel price without scarcity, how he managed to curb inflation among others.”

“I am sure Jonathan as a patriotic citizen will be willing to assist him,” Chidi concluded.

Chima Chukwujekwu lamented saying: “In this economic hardship, Mr President I thought u said that you feel the pain of the masses and now you are creating more pains, I weep for my nation.”

Taking a twist to the situation, Temitope Abiodun said: “This is the best time for the NLC to go on strike to protest, should Buhari refuses to accede to the N56k minimum wage proposal!”

Olakunle Ogundare said he is “Waiting for what occupy Nigeria will say? Yea NLC time for show lets here your side just the same way you did in 2012. Failure to hear from you would tell how hypocritical NLC and associate were in 2012.”

My thought: 90% of the respondents are eternally pained iPod yoots. Even if fuel sells for N1 per litre, they'd still complain.

Nigerians weren't deceived, they're shortsighted.
Buhari was the better alternative for corrupt GEJ.

So are you saying Buhari is right?

This is outrageous, the giant of Africa crumpling to pieces. God will help us and answer the prayers of His children for the positive change to start taking effect.

This is one of the best decisions from this government since its inception.
this was the best time to deregulate, The real actors would tell the positives Nigerians stand to gain from this drive.
Well done PMB, don't let the empty wailers distract you

At least for once in ur life say the truth & stop hailing and supporting mediocrity, Buhari has failed Nigeria & Nigerians. It beats my imagination that u're a compatriot. Please don't make God regret giving u sense of reasoning & please stop proving ur critics right that u don't have sense of your own.

But when GEJ removed subsidy, Fasola and co where saying he's wrong. So who's right now?

God will judge you and your kind

if you dont have a superior argument or alternate solution, head back to your hole

Mynd44, OAM4J, Lalasticlala what's your say?

Yea that right. Just round up some staunch wailing elements then tag them as "nigerians"!

Rubbish

The removal of subsidy will affect everything(Food, toothbrush, cloth, phone e.t.c) as far it's transported.

If God would regret giving anyone a brain, it would be you lot who still think PDP did no wrong after 16 horrendous years of misrule.

Pretty much doubt he'd even regret anything because I'm too sure he gave you people none at all- it would have been a colossal waste of miracle doing so.

"Put Nigeria first" he says. . How you people see no wrong in the utterances of all those who flood the forum with prayers for damnation of the country and direct your admonition at Omenka beats me.

I'm more patriotic than Baba himself Mr man. Go preach to those who wish Nigeria evil- their comments abound all around you.

Bye.

But more than 50% of this current ruling party came from the PDP
