Mele Kyari: Nigerians Should Prepare For 3 Months Trouble Over Oil Price Crash by hisexcellency34(op): 6:50pm On Mar 11, 2020
Group Managing Director of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Wednesday warned Nigerians to prepare for more economic trouble in view of the current multi-year low level of crude price in the international market.

A spread of COVID-19 across over 90 countries forcing the shut-down of large economies coupled with price war declared by Saudi Arabia aimed at punishing Russia because of its refusal to acceded to further production cuts resulted in the lowest oil prices since 1999.

At the Second Consultative Roundtable with Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor tagged Going for Growth 2 in Abuja, the richest black man on earth, Alhaji Aliko Dangote also expressed disappointment at the perennial mouthing of plans to diversify the economy once there was a crash in oil prices.

Mele emphasized that the oil industry was the most important sector of the economy but lamented that Nigerian banks were still too limited to finance it.

He advised Nigerians to prepare for at least three months of hardship for the economy even if the market recovered from the price shock immediately as it would take time for the effect to wear off warning “we must assume that prices will remain low”.

The assumption for this year is 60$ per barrel crude oil price as an average now we are facing 30 and we haven’t seen the bottom.

“Today there over 12 LPG cargos stranded globally because they have no hub because of the abrupt collapse in demand associated specifically with coronavirus.

“It is obvious and it has also hit other sectors from the production stage which is the liquid crude.

We already know. What you and your boss should be telling Nigerians is what you are doing or plan to do to mitigate the possible negative effect of the low oil prices.

At a time, this same Buhari's APC miscreants came up with a propaganda claiming that Nigeria no
longer needed Niger Delta oil.

They claimed the budget was now substantially funded by revenue from Lagos Ports and Agriculture.

You see these ZOMBIES ehn, they are as dumb and brainless as their master in Aso Rock

Like president like followers

Don't mind you. He should be farming, and manufacturing, and producing because he is the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, while you are diversifying on Nairaland.

Sometimes I do wonder where the sort of people that preside over the affairs of this country come from. How could you come out to instill fear into the mass rather than douse it. This indelicate act is borne out of the need to alleviate the ruling party of any aspersion that may spring from the governed.

No wonder Peterside turned down the invitation knowing that nothing tangible will come out of it rather than what we already know.

Foolish people. Which trouble can be more worrisome than we are already in. The insensitivity on the part of the people in this government is second to none. Whether oil crash or not we do not even bother again. The worst is for them to plunder the economy into more distress. God have mercy.

One thing about Nigeria is that things don't go back to normal after it becomes abnormal. angry

They kept focusing on oil all these years.. Now it's time. angry
