Shameless take. Who were those who kicked against subsidy removal and used it to campaign against the government of the day? nairalanda1: That N187 was made possible by massive printing of naira and borrowing.
Fact is, we did not remove subsidy in 2012, when we should have. The result was that government was forced to borrow to maintain the subsidy. And that created a massive debt, and also forced the Buhari government to raid the forex reserves...just to pay for the subsidy.
The result was the subsidy being removed to at least allow the government have some spending money, otherwise things would have really been bad.
Most African countries charge as high as NIgeria, most even higher. Only five african countries have some form of subsidy on fuel, and even those, (apart from Libya that can pay for subsides and refinery upkeep without breaking a sweat because they have a very small population)...maintain it at the expense of debt. If all African countries subsidsied fuel like we do, even the oil producers, they would have collapsed economically ages ago.
Choose your wickedness...removal of subsidy with harsh price increases but the chance of improved domestic refining and more jobs, and no more borrowing to fund subsidy, or maintianing subsidy with the borrowing it entails. |

Omo!!! Una dey irredeemable ooo.... Shey na the governor go provide security for him? The commissioner of police is in charge of that and the commissioner of police is not answerable to the governor. Cherrybae: How is the Governor a liar. Show us any evidence that Peter Obi informed the Governor about his visit.
The state government has said obi did not inform them, tell obi and NDC to post any evidence they notified the state govt.
If Obi notified police, is police the govt ?
Police did their work, providing him security but the youths rejected Obi and stoned him like Judas |

I have no pity on them. They cause it by their wokism and diversity. When Islamic preachers in Europe and America keep reiterating that they will take over. The people think they are joking. The islamist are using the socialist-Democrats and the leftists to capture the state. Any form of resistance against such is being termed as islamophobic. Muslims do not assimilate. Muslims invade and take over. The earlier the west realizes this the better it is for them. |

Double faced sultan. A king is supposed to be a symbol of unity. But this one is solely a king to the muslims only. That's why he never condemns or criticize his people who have been persistently killing Christians around the country, but quick to cry foul is the same fate befalls the least of his people. He is crying for the right of the minority igbo muslims whereas Christians that have a reasonable numbers in some northern states are utterly marginalized. |

They should keep deceiving themselves with this outdated trick of trekking for politicians. How do someone trek a whole 633 kilometers within 17 days (day time only)? It's NOT possible! If anyone attempts it such a person should have a swollen leg right now and should be receiving treatment in the hospital right now. |

Many don't understand the intention of this thread. This thread is to open our eyes to the fact that there is no permanent friend/enemy. Business men like Dangote and others are only able to come this far because they befriend anyone in power. When you're out of power they switch to the next people in power. This is actually a working business trick, and it shows that no one who criticizes the government will be able to run a successful business. |
