That girl is an obidient. I know that twiiter handle very well. She is known on twitter for pushing fake north narratives. Always claiming North this not North that.

I wont be surprised if she is from the east masquerading as northerner

Infact... She is igbo not anywhere near the north. i am 100% sure

It was an unpopular strike that was doomed to fail. Suspending the proposed strike at this point is simply to save face.

Not just, they are indescribably wicked. If not rigging which may be allowed in Islam how can a Muslim Muslim ticket win in kaduna?

Very insightful question, our problems ought to really enrich us to creating a lasting solution. How have we been getting our petroleum resources ever since we stopped refining hydrocarbons?

That's far too much, but how many barrels of oil per month do we consume? Who are ones responsible for the purchasing and what are their facts and figures and what does their statistics says? NNPC, IPMAN.

The source of our statistics remains the best benchmark for our consumptions. There's no black market bringing petroleum products to Nigeria, so it's nnpc, then it's distribution exercise is done by IPMAN across the land.

Now, the precursory to "independent marketers' take over" is what we are having as for now. What's in the news is that NNPC would no longer exchange crude oil for petroleum but sell crude oil and buy petroleum.

So instead of exchange, it now buys and sells to refineries at home and in the international markets. It also pays for petroleum products.

With time, home based refineries will have excess petroleum products to sell to IPMAN and to nnpc. Sooner or later, NNPC will have less petroleum to buy from abroad.

With more indigenous refinery, it will be buying the same product from where IPMAN is buying at home in that instance and would serve as a regulatory body in that it could sell with minimal profit margin where IPMAN would have exploited the market.

In this instance, it's still a consumer protective system, businesses are out to maximize profits anywhere they are sited. Government is often running at deficit, except the ones with almost zero tolerance for corruption.

NNPC has ended when Petroleum Industry Bill was passed into law

What we have is NNPLC a private company with Nigeria owning stakes

People like Forte Oil, Oando, Bovas would show NNPLC shege.. it's now a free market

Parachoko:
Atiku should have supported Jonathan in 2015, only God knows what he was thinking back then.

If Obi contest against Asiwaju and Atiku again in 2027, Asiwaju will win.

Asiwaju performance will determine how wide the margin will be

Parachoko:
So Atiku looks like someone that's about to retire to you?

Showpatos:
Nnpc can set it own price but not wen subsidy is till on the current petrol till the end of june

bjtinz:


But that's not what NNPCCL has done, which was what Falana is challenging. They have set the benchmark price for all sales of PMS.

More like peak milk claiming all evaporated milk will now be 300/tin. 🥺

madridguy:
Kano people will stone this guy out of office las las.

ogododo:
Human Rights Lawyer, Femi Falana has described the decision of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) to increase pump price of PMS as illegal.

He was speaking on the sideline of an emergency meeting of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) National Executive Council in Abuja.


Mr Falana said NNPCL has a limited liability company does not have any legal power to jack up the price of petroleum.



He urged the federal government to go back to the drawing board with a view to finding alternative solution to the problem, one of which he says includes the need to address the dollarization of Nigeria’s economy.

Falana also said Nigerians will challenge the decision, adding, however, that the solution to the fuel problem will be both legal and political.

kwakwaso built kano state first university and other notable achievement in the nigerian context.
here are few of his achievments in just four years.


please post some notable obi dids before i post tinubu's own, these are just few projects in four years, i want you to post some of obi's achievements in good eight years, if not dividing the states between catholics and anglican he is swming in a gully just so the camera ad anambra people can know he cares.

Swagsultan1:


Your reps are not marginalized in any way Oga. They just don’t want to put any effort into helping you people. Some northern politicians have to literally beg these heads of agencies for slots on behalf of their constituents. Southern politicians don’t think their constituents are worth going through that much stress for. Just forget this marginalization talk. A lot of southern politicians kids are working in top agencies in Abuja because their parents hustled it for them, the same politicians don’t want to go through that stress for the common man.

Penguin2:


Obi won Taraba in the northeast but it was rigged for Atiku.

Obi got more votes in Adamawa, Bauchi and Gombe than was allotted to him.

Are you saying that if INEC had allowed for transparency in the last election that the outcome wouldn’t have been different?

Penguin2:


Nobody, I say it again, nobody, voted for Tinubu in the Southsouth.

Or could you be referring to Rivers State?

fergie001:
He is in control of the Party as it stands.

I don't know who will better him in that Party. Dankwambo cannot even win his NE cumulatively.

Tambuwal is from the NW, how many Southern States will he win? It will only take the 'unseen' hands of the Presidency to initiate that coup.

LP and the Presidency are parallel lines. As long as the PDP and LP go into elections with different Candidates, it is a sweet and delicious ride for the APC.

KD already showed you where the North will go, if they don't go APC.

@the italicised, what will make them support Obi if they get a refined Candidate in their own Party?

@ the bolded, that will be in Southern Nigeria/Benue/Plateau not core-North. It will always be his albatross. The PDP will likely field another Northern Candidate in 2027.

How can Obi win any NWern State?
How can he win any NErn State? That is 13 already!

I don't blame Obi. It is not just about himself, it is where he is from. So, I pity him and myself inclusive.

If God keeps Tinubu alive, it is still 2031.

Penguin2:


2031 is will be the turn of the north. Any southerner contesting the presidency then will be wasting his time.

Obi’s last chance is 2027. But I insist that with the right alignments, LP and PDP could dislodge Tinubu.

dyera:


If they want to unify the naira exchange rate, the idea is to figure a way to bring the parallel market down to the official rate. Devaluing the naira official rate is absolutely reckless.

Penguin2:


Valid point.

But would a PDP southern candidate not be greeted with same sentiments or would PDP rather go for a northerner which would be more suicidal?

So, you see why an alliance with Obi remains PDP’s best chance?

ivolt:
Daily Trust is right.
CBN indeed sold dollars for 630/N.

If you know anyone who regularly uses the I&E window, you can also confirm from them.

boltwings:
it is true. Same CBN denied devaluing naira when it was 430 but later on accepted that it was devalued. This devaluation will be the beginning of the fall of Tinubu. I pray Peter Obi reclaims the mandate because the problem will get worse with a deluded criminal leader like Tinubu.

Basic123:
Igbo people 😆

yemmit90:


Events of 2027 presidential election would be determined by performances of this current administration. Obi enjoy the wave of popularity, particularly in South south, south west and North Central, among Christians communities because of abysmal performance of Buhari/APC and Muslim- Muslim ticket.

If this administration perform very well, and the principle of federal character is strictly adherence to, he may not get upto 3 millions vote in 2027. Besides, the fear of voting any southerner who might probably be fighting to spend another 8 years after 4 years of Tinubu will work against any other candidate aside the president. Alot of power brokers will prefer Tinubu to spend 8 years and had the power to return to North than voting another southerner.

Penguin2:


I’m surprised you still think Atiku will still have a chance at the PDP ticket at 81.

Meanwhile, I agree with you that Obi getting PDP ticket in 2027 will be suicidal as a lot of PDP stakeholders are harboring a lot of ill feelings towards him for contesting the 2023 elections against Atiku which they believe denied Atiku victory.

What I see happening however, is that some refined northerners in PDP who share Obi’s ideology might end up switching to Labour Party or working for Obi while in PDP having found out that Obi is a bigger force than they had reckoned him.

2. One way or the other, I just see LP working with some northern elements of PDP, and even Southern elements too, to have a go at the presidency again. Because as far as Obi remains in Labour Party, LP has more chance at the presidency than the PDP.

This is my practical analysis of realities on ground devoid of any sentiments informed by my support for Obi.

mrvitalis:

Nd u have been here crying over PDP ?

mrvitalis:

Lmfao and here you are lamenting how Igbos should vote PDP , I no blame Una sha

Let PDP win without Igbos make we see
