Please don't you have conscience? We can't breathe, this government's is shocking us! This isn't about political affiliations or tribalism, Nigeria can't breathe. See no matter the tribalism or money you were paid to defend this choking government just know that one day we all will die and leave all these wealths here. Don't you have conscience? I feel like commiting suicide sometimes. I have been Searching for good job for 4 years and 5 months after NYSC. All the jobs I got before were just underpaying.

You are talking to a bot.
Like a robot.
They are programmed to say all these things.
Just as a computer cannot change its source code and become sentient, so also, an APC supporter cannot change anything from the script given to them on their WhatsApp group.
These ones are not alive anymore. They just don't know it

festacman:
Another 4 years of economic decline will be disastrous.

Tinubu was and is still the worst candidate on the ballot.
Economically daft, incredibly corrupt and a bloated sense of self importance.
Baba just dey mess up from one place to another.

Removed subsidy as opening speech only to backtrack after 5 months.
Very clueless human

tonididdy:
Lol I remember some bastards on here telling us how the removal of subsidy was the best decision for this country.
How we needed subsidy money to be rechanneled into other sectors.
How Nigeria will suddenly start booming and the fuel price affordability wouldn't be a problem.

...
...
...
Less than 3months ....subsidy is back
Fuel price has risen and will remain there, subsidy or no subsidy.
The rechanneling....pfff....oga at the top just rechanneled 3/4 months subsidy money into private aza and BOOM subsidy is back.

When you realize you're your own Nigeria...you will not jubilate at the short gifts this country has to offer. Last time it was a kg of gas was cheaper than breadloaf, today it's equal to disel prices.
Taking, waiting and hoping on Nigeria is like having unprotected sex with an ovulating woman and praying she does not get pregnant.

Take the word of any Apc supporter with a pinch of salt.
I like as the Government keeps showing that they are unprincipled humans.
One minute they will shout how removal of subsidy is good, blah, blah , blah, naira will fall , B.A.T is sound.
The next minute , the same mindless bots will still shout how subsidy is the best thing, give the government time, blah, blah, blah...

Even if it was proven beyond doubt that Tinubu is a drug lord (which is a worldwide fact), these bots will still come here and find one narrative to push.
Truth is truth. If you like sell your soul for peanuts, doesn't change what truth is

Peppysco:
Easy tiger, don't let your emotions take the best of you. I guess you never knew that there's a CBN's Imports and Exports forex benchmark. These earmarked sectors access forex at the official exchange rate. The reason for the multiple exchange rates in the parallel market is due to the unpatriotic and sharp practices of certain government officials, CBN employees and the BDC's as that market is not regulated by the government.
Back to the initial comment, allowing fuel importers access to forex at the CBN's official rate is not subsidy, rather, a policy to make forex accessible to importers at CBN's rate. Where's the subsidy in that?

Do you see how stupid you sound now?
A lot of you APC folks are mentally retarded and you don't know it.
I told this mindless bot that subsidy was back and he started ranting left and right to justify his drug lord.
The amount of nonsense these mindless Bots spill on a daily na why nobody they take them serious. Clowns

JuanDeDios:
It'll reduce nothing. It's not a welcome development. It's a bad idea.

Before you reply all these APC bots, just check their post history.
These ones are mindless bots that are working for their N3k

Premium gaslighting

When the drug lord is in Power, anything goes

michlins:
then why not fix refineries and make them accept payments in Naira before removal of subsidy

Gbam! Very simple solution but pseudo economists will rather twist and turn than speaking the truth.
Instead of palliatives and all these other rubbish:
Fix the refineries.
That alone will cut the need for FX and improve our export commodities.

But a thief that is only there to steal cannot think in such a way because it does not benefit him

Peppysco:
Victim mentality and emotional individuals are the worst to engage in logical discussions. Take your emotions away from here

Lol. You don't have any meaningful thing to say hence the quote.
No be only victim mentality.
What do you understand by subsidy?
I don't even know whether to call you ignorant or blind but it seems you're one of these Apc bots who wander the Internet looking for where to spew misinformation.
Na mumu dey follow una argue. As you where

Peppysco:
If your comment is the summary of how you understand the article, I'm seriously ashamed for you. You need to go back to SSS1 to restart an Economics class.

Rather , it is you that should go back and learn economics.
What do you think subsidy is? You keep writing nonsense with confidence.
Government is giving FX to importers at a subsidised rate to sell fuel cheaper.
What do you think subsidy is before?
An Apc member is ready to tell you that Satan is God as long as the party says so.
Very despicable set of human beings

Peppysco:
You come on here to rant uncontrollably without recourse to what message you pass with it. The NNPC have been the sole importer of PMS for too long and a window is provided to break the monopoly and make the sector become more competitive and deregulated. Meaning that market forces will now determine prices, similar to what happened in the early 2000 with the telecoms sector, where prices of SIM cards crashed astronomically due to the extreme competitions among the firms in the sector.
As usual, you only talk but add no value to discussions.

Was this not the status quo under Buhari?
Omo, the level of ignorance or selective blindness an Apc member has to go through is truly mind boggling.
Is this not the subsidy all over again?
Then why did the clown rush to remove subsidy when he did not have a plan in motion?
Omo, if Tinubu is allowed to seat in Aso rock with all his ignorance and fraud precedents , 4 years will be too long for what's coming.
Naira is already at $1000 and this is just the start judging by the reckless decisions the clown keeps on making

VeeVeeMyLuv:
It is indeed an intolerant religion

Muhammad himself was a violent man so what do you expect.

Tayorshd87:
You have said it all ..

But lastly I want to ask. Do you noticed any campaign and manifestato they do have before been elected are always in opposite side when they get to office 🤔

what am trying to say is that from outside u will have plans but when u get there when you see accumulated problems then u won't know where and how to tackle the challenges again 😢

My God help us with Nigerian leaders

We all knew what to expect with Tinubu but tribalism , party sentimality and religious divide did not allow us.
God has nothing to do with it.
I see Old men lying and throwing their integrity in the mud just to protect Tinubu's Facade.
At this point , we all deserve whatever we get. The new trick of Apc is to now gaslight the citizens themselves , telling them to be more productive and not complain.

Free2Fly:
Stupid comparison.

Do the Nigerian doctors and nurses carry their religious ideology to those countries and attack their hosts??

Can they even allow people practice their religion freely.
Most of these Muslim refugees cannot apply to sharia countries because of their strict laws but they come to free Secular nations and try to force their ideologies

Tayorshd87:
I commend you for that that truly.he removed it and didn't prepare for the challenge ahead..

But my idea was that if buhari can do the same then the economy wouldn't have been landside till date..
I.e when he closed the border for local production to work and since it s not working then he should have opened it too so food won't be skyrocketing till date🤔

I guess that's what Tinubu realized by trying to bring the subsidy back again ....

Don't type in form of abuse please we are only trying to fix our country 😃

That is Apc's Stock in trade. The same Tinubu said he'll continue from where Buhari stopped and these same supporters cheered on.
When Buhari banned all those commodities and closed the same borders, these same Apc supporters cheered it on and insulted anyone with a contrary opinion.

What am I trying to say?
Apc followers will justify anything , even murder, as far as their paymasters agree with it.
Mr Tinubu is not just ignorant but also clueless.
This policy would not only cause our naira to fall (as PMS importers would simply round trip with the black market).

If he was going to reintroduce subsidy why announce it on your inauguration. That just reeks of someone without a definite plan.
His cabinet is bloated with SA's who will still hire more PA's, and Nigerians are told to manage while he keeps making mistakes.
As usual, the same Apc headless supporters would still support it an complain later on. Rinse and repeat

Tayorshd87:
Don't be harsh with such Tinubu decision and base on not ready ehn
Ask yourself the buhari and d likes that are ready what are their achievement even d so called Jonathan period he is d worst president ever and is because he didn't remove subsidy then why people assume he is better..

Ask other oil producing countries like Nigeria too how much is their PMS then u Wil understand better that Nigeria is doing better with #617per liter.

Let's just hope for the best 🙏

Please speak English.
Tinubu removed subsidy without laying any framework to suppress the effect.
The same Tinubu has now reintroduced subsidy without making the market open.
Some of you just copy and paste whatever you see on your WhatsApp groups without thinking it through.

I know you are an APC supporter, but think. Ronu. Not everything is politics. Have an opinion. Don't be a basket that leaks information without actually confirming what it is you're saying

Kukutente23:
It's unfortunate. You just grab your phone and start typing total nonsense
Is the money for 36 states in TSA
The thing for me is how audacious you are with your putrid ignorance and shallowness

Most of these folks are paid activists who cannot hold any solid conversation without resorting to insults. Look at what a human being is saying about TSA? Omo , it is well sha. For every action , there is an equal and opposite reaction.
By God's grace , I go don japa comot before the reaction begin take place

aylive02:
. An average APC supporter is a fullish man. You just confirmed it. I am a born and bred Yoruba boy. FYI, the drug lord never developed any part of Lagos. He only invested in thuggery and agberoism. Mad men like you only attribute the success of Ambode, Fashola, Sanwo to his name.

Do you think Apc followers are normal again?
They have lied so much that they don't even know ow what is white or black again.
Some even believe the lies that they have told themselves, that is why they look like rabid dogs to fellow Nigerians.
Someone that cannot think for himself again and would support B.A.T even if they proved beyond evidence that he is destroying our rule of law

jumper524:
when you finally divide it by our over population, you'll discover we make less than 20k per head monthly on crude.

This right here is the problem.
The Oil producing states cannot be feeding a whole Nation.
Other regions have natural resources as well but greed and insecurity has forced everyone to either abandon theirs (South west / Middle belt ) or protect theirs (North)

youngsahito:
why not hold ur state governor and senators with other elected members. You just throw shades anyhow.

What does governors have to do with this?
Omo, the level of shege Nigerians will see if this corrupt government is not checked will be something like a fairy tale

Lordmajor31:
There is no official rate big man. Every single policy that have been made by this government isn’t really a bad policy, the problem is implementation and corruption in the systems before making policies make sure you first of all deal with every situation that will not allow the policy work. This Government is padi padi government nothing will come out of it. And u all should stop this obident and Bat and atikulate shit Na we all Dey suffer this thing BATs will come online and be defending this bullshit and behind that keyboard Dey are all crying and suffering.

According to Apc headless mob, any type of criticism is not allowed, even when its so glaring.
Tinubu is extremely confused, introducing a policy , then backtracking on it. When one fails to plan, this Is the issue. He wanted to be President at all cost , despite not having anything to offer

This is where you can see the Apc media mob in full force.
Propaganda government that has nothing of value to add.
Not one thing has been achieved by this administration.
Floating Naira? Dollar has increased ×2 since the Fraudster entered office.
Fuel? Same thing.
Ordinary Visa ban that was celebrated by the mindless goons here? Still propaganda.
Subsidy? Propaganda
Dangote Refinery? Propaganda
Opening of border? Propaganda

They talk about cutting costs but go ahead to hire SA's like its nobody's business

When the dust settles, these hypocrites will start speaking from both sides of their mouth how Buhari was the problem.
The same Buhari they praised during the election.
Paid activists that will defend anything for the right price.

This certificate matter is a clear case of forgery but they'll rather burn the little integrity Nigeria has than state the truth.

emmanuelbrown26:
Yorubas are simply d problem we hv in dis country.

Apc not Yoruba.
A lot of Yorubas did not vote for the fraud in office and were called all sorts of names.

Lanruze:
The story of Jerry Rawlings and how he reshaped the economy and fortunes of Ghana is the closet case study to how to measure the trend and direction of a government which has a high probability to succeed.

On assumption of office, Jerry Rawlings clearly showed he had prepared very serious revolutionary policies and actions. He inherited clearly one of the most corrupt bureaucratic governments in Africa and took immediate action by placing his three (3) predecessors on military trial on corruption charges . They were found guilty of corruption charges , sentenced to death for corruption and summarily executed.

A British reporter on the event confirmed that the whole Nation went totally silent for a whole year. Jerry Rawlings succeeded in creating an immediate impression and sent a strong message to "intending" corrupt prone officials. His long stay in power stabilized the Ghanaian economy whilst creating an international reputation as a serious government.

Let's be guided and manage our expectations on the PBAT tenor, He already started on a very shaky footing. His two policies on the Unification of the FX market & subsidy removal were badly timed. It will take a well coordinated strategic plan/ miracle to stabilise the economy on the medium term.

If not for the intervention of the National House of Assembly, the government would have worsened the situation with the introduction of hike in Electricity tariff across board.

PBATs justification for appointing some barefaced corrupt characters in his cabinet and also support for corrupt officials at Party level has made the Emefiele episode perceived as a mere witchunt.

The New York times Observation on PBATs policies is magnifying the obvious domesticated plight of Nigerians in the last four(4) months.

We'll pray he takes a detour on some of his clearly faulty policies or hard-headedly continues in self destruct.

Kudos to Honorable Tunji-Ojo who continues to inspire the hope of the people with his clearly articulated policies on passport issuance, unifying identity management (Using the Homeland USA model) and visa-on arrival reciprocity.

The problem is Tinubu himself is corrupt. This is a fact that even his loudest supporters (Keyamo, Reno , Segalinks, Olisa Agbaloko) all agree on.
Political sentiments have all turned these men to Yes men but it remains a fact.
Another issue is, the man is not economically sound. When asked about the rising inflation , he said and I quote, "We don't earn in dollars, why bother".
To another question on how to solve the hardship , he talked about printing more money.
These are issues that should have been thoroughly criticized but the bandwagon of Chop I Chop politics muted his Yes men and supporters from saying anything

geoworldedu:
They are all the same thing. Like a millennium or two ago, one man was also saying this thing you are saying while his religion was the most famous and populated(that time Christianity is still like 5000 people worldwide). The man said and I quote, "The true God Jupiter whom I believe other gods came from can be well known after death."
It's not new to think that your god is God while the rest are gods. Muslims too think that their god Allah is God, but it doesn't change anything. Even the Indians think that Vishnu and two others like that are the main Gods while other gods are small gods. It's normal.

"dies to his personality*.
I did not mean physical death. Belief is subjective to the mind and the senses. Knowing goes way beyond belief into the realm of Pure Awareness.
Unless you are born again (dead to the 5 senses and thought) , one cannot enter the kingdom of God.
God is a Spirit (Awareness) and the that worship him must do so in Spirit (Awareness) and in truth.

To each his doctrine at the end of the day. Like you said, every man believes one thing or the other. Knowing on the other hand, is not an intellectual theory but a fact.
We know we exist. This Knowing goes beyond whatever thoughts the mind can generate

geoworldedu:
The god of Judaism is same with Jesus' god. And las las all gods are fake.

Depends on what you call God.
I don't refer to a "mythical figure in the sky". That's just Zeus using one of his pseudonyms.
The true God whom I believe Jesus came to reveal , can only be known when one dies to his personality and simply becomes I am.

DominusPrime:
Very good analysis my brother. And what must be done to fraudsters whether they are in the govt or on the streets? They must be caught and dealt with. If you are on the streets then don’t get caught. If not face the music. Simple.

It's very sad but this is the reality on ground. Government fraudsters have the backing of the Government, and only need to compromise to the figure at the top.
That is why you see men like Fashola & Co being reduced to the sidelines. I strongly believe these men (Fashola especially) would have been beneficial to Nigeria but probably one or two cases of fraud (contracts , chop I chop, etc) compromised these men to the extent that , they have to play along or get victimized

geoworldedu:
I don't pity countries or kingdoms who laid their foundations in war and rejoiced in it in the names of their gods. If you check the holy books of these two countries involved, you will see how they used the names of their supposed gods in initiating wars with neighbouring towns. Example, Jehovah will supposedly lead a Saul, Deborah or David to go and kill the infidels so called of the neighbouring lands. Allah will lead Mohammed to kill the kafirs of nearby lands, etc. They used the names of their gods to fight wars and kill human beings like themselves. One even got angry because a king spared the king of neighbouring land and their animals instead of total annihilation. The harm they did to each other in the name of religion is irreparable and it will last forever.

The movie "Apocalypse" opened my eyes to see the atrocities Isreal caused in the name of Jehovah.
I strongly believe that the God Jesus Christ served was completely different from what the Jews believed God to be. That is why the High priest and the pharisees all hated Jesus to their bone.
The God of Christ is Love , that could forgive even when his Son was killed. This is a far cry from the vengeful figure Isreal presented in the Old Testament

oakenfold:
Half story! Hamas is a child of Isreal.

They were once propped up and funded by Israel just the way US once propped up the Taliban

https://theintercept.com/2018/02/19/hamas-israel-palestine-conflict/

Just what I was saying.
Zionists are very clever people. Their notion of being "God's chosen people" pushes some of their extremists into diabolical agendas

CoolUsername:
Israel stole Palestine's land. This is true.

That said, Hamas is still a terrorist organisation that targets civilians and even uses its own civilians as meat shields. Egypt doesn't allow Palestinians in as refugees because of their extremist jihadist views.

It is disgusting to defend murderous rapists and terrorists. Likewise, it is absolutely pathetic to watch black people in Nigeria calling Jews "God's chosen people".

There is no good side in this matter and the jihadists and Zionists both deserve whatever they get.

Realistically speaking though, Israel will destroy in Palestine in full-scale combat and now Hamas they gave them the justification they need.

I have a feeling that even Hamas is secretly bankrolled by Zionists.
This gives Isreal legitimacy to invade Palestine. Like you said, there is really no good or bad in this matter. My hope is that it doesn't spill into a worldwide conflict. Humans can be petty over little issues.
WWII started over the death of a single Austrian Prince.

patrickcollins:
Why don't states control what they have, their natural resources and pay certain percentages to the centre, this is the only way Nigeria can develop faster than sharing money monthly which has made some Governors to put their trust in the cash coming from Abuja

The interest in the Oil and gas reserves of the south is what is killing us.
Give every state leeway to control their resources.
Imo has a huge abundance of natural gas. That alone can change their state.
The Yorubas are blessed with Cocoa. That was the main export before Oil.
The North has a lot of farmland. That is another source of revenue.

These are simple matters to deduce but online miscreants simply turn every thread as a receipt for their monthly N15k.
We have not even scratched the surface of what is coming ahead.
With the complete collapse of the Judicial and Electoral system, I can't forsee us not moving the way of Zimbabwe.

Go and take your pills. I guess you've missed today's dose
