boss...

How true is this

This hit differently

Realmrsean:
Shouldn't there be legal implications if matches are cut off abruptly without prior notice?

SuperSports chop winch?

Na naija u dey o...

raumdeuter:
Okay o. And the trillions stolen will continue and we will scream no development. While govt will point us at subsidy as our "development"

Oga...it is better for d now until there is trust..

What will d masses do if d money realised from subsidy is eaten by elephant??..cos I blv elephants consume more than snakes

raumdeuter:
If you want to hear the truth and not campaign pitch

No govt will fix refinery, best case they sell it to private individuals who make it productive

Same thing with Power, only private sector can fix it

Same way govt was fixing Telecoms for almost half of my lifetime until private sector came into it. And if you are in subsidy business, private sector wont go for it

Gain trust of masses, cut unnecessary spending are just campaign pitches that are not tied to actual achievable metrics

In summary...we are not ripe enough to remove subsidy

raumdeuter:
Increasing income will simply mean everything you buy increases by a factor of the wage increase

You earn 30K rice is 15k, Now you earn 300K and rice is 150K what difference does it make?

A bag of rice was still low until Bubu blocked d border..


There is no correlation by minimum wage vs cost of rice whatsoever ...

larride:
Price for bag of rice is not really tied to fuel. That’s on Buhari policies on agriculture.

It would o..

When logistics is put into consideration

Realmrsean:
do you still have hope the above you listed will come be achieved?

Bat wey go use the money sniff coke na em u dey get hope say em go cut down cost of gorvernance

Reason why it shouldn't be removed atleast for d now.

.subsidy is d crumbs d masses are managing for survival.....atleast trust is dead

Itsrm:
We all know that none of these solutions will work. Subsidy has to remain.

Tinubu and the APC did not just spend hundreds of millions or perhaps billions of naira to campaign just to cut down unnecessary spendings.

Mr Raumdeuter is not in Nigeria n doesn't understand what is happening...


At 180...we are lamenting about d cost of bags of rice at 50k....

Just imagine something

raumdeuter:
So you think we should keep the subsidy? What are the things that need to be put in place

Na every country dem dey steal and corruption dey under whatever guise

Fix light n d refinery .


Gain d trust of the masses by bringing corrupt leaders to book.

If possible,cut down unnecessary spendings

raumdeuter:
We have 2 terrible options

Keep subsidy and feeding the corrupt few while there wont be meaningful development
Remove subsidy and people will go into terrible suffering with a hope that it will trigger development in the future

We are not in any terrible situation with subsidy..

Our main problem is the thieving and d unnecessary cost of governance.


Under obj..i think we were able to cut down debt despite subsidy......where did d money came from

A whole ship came/still coming on board to steal crudes with no accountability whatsoever..

A country were snake swallowed millions of naira naim u want trust with subsidy cash ?..

Make dem no remove am if things are not in place. atleast that is what an average Nigerian is benefitting from d messed up country

raumdeuter:
Its this phased removal thing they have been selling to us for the past 20yrs and nothing has changed. If we don't do it, in another 20yrs we will be talking about subsidy removal while a few will be feeding fat on the subsidy money

Weren't you advocating for subsidy removal before election or did I mix you with someone else? Maybe it was itsrm

I swear ..u don't have d slightest understanding of what is going on in Nigeria.

I mean d rate of poverty in d land and d dependence on fuel for every thing


More than 50% of Nigerian graduates (age 23 to 40 )are surviving with uber n bolt(even on hire purchased)...no job whatsoever for them......just think about how it will affect them .





I think a one time removal will be d recipe for revolution

monerozi5590:
Na to increase minimum wage and other stuff to ease the sufferings oh. Once fuel increase like this, na so prices of things go increase for market oh.

Endsars will be a child's play....cos people are angry already

A001:
Subsidy on fuel will still be removed sooner or later. The humongous funds spent on subsidizing fuel aren't sustainable in the long run.

However, I suggest the government delays the subsidy removal until later in the year and use the next few months to prepare palliatives for the masses.

Removal of subsidy will yield the same results we are facing now...

No be our politicians again??


IMO...it should be gradual...Like partial removal to earn d trust of d masses with a suitable outcome....

monerozi5590:
Tinubu might reverse the decision on June 1. Let's wait and see what the incoming government will do regarding that.

That will be d most sensible thing to do...

As it stands....Nigerians are looking for reasons to hit d street or maybe go head to head with politicians

A001:
Fuel subsidy is expected to be removed next month or in May before President Buhari leaves office on May 29, 2023. Stakeholders in the Nigerian oil and gas sector have asked Nigerians to prepare to buy petrol at a rate of N750/Litre when the subsidy is removed.

How are you preparing for life after fuel subsidy removal?

Removal of subsidy join d problem d average Nigerian dey face for d country go belike giving excuse to d already angry masses to explode

Amoto94:
Teejay argument in favor of culture is good bar few own goals he's spot on, the culture of many ethnicities are dying out and being supplanted by dangerous ideologies that are counterproductive to sustainable and progressive society; consumerism has supplanted conservatism, greed has supplanted generosity and selflessness, individualism has supplanted communalism. I can go on and on about the impact of alien cultures and what it portends for our future.

Exactly my point.

His love for Africa cultures is spot on but I believe he is going overboard with his take.

I think culture is dynamic and positive when it evolves over time to accommodate civilization.

If it is barbaric to bury a king with some innocent head,such culture or belief should be discarded one time..

..A001 is very knowledgeable and have a strong affirmation with Aftican cultures but his assertion is becoming too extreme.

Happy about this.

This dude suffered and deserved it,even more...

A001:
Not interested in discussing with someone ignorant of history. I discuss with people that can add to my knowledge.

No culture in the world is absolutely good or absolutely evil.

I think your takes as well as donj's can exist as truth in their own right.

So many non-important aspects of Africa culture should be abolished and put out forever....

BlueRayDick:
For the sane minds and those who still have a shred of conscience , this is the video from the scene of assault against the Uber driver by Policemen and LNSC officers


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEvUW-zqwt8

Lagos state government appealed the 5m compensation awarded against them and the police because they claimed “ there’s no evidence of torture “

Some people ehn , if heaven and hell dey true true , dem go give some people o Geepeee tank of petrol and their own matches to go start their own hell fire at a new location on judgement day

Just speechless

raumdeuter:
There are some places I travelled to in Nigeria that I will wonder to myself that if something happen to me here, No one will even trace me there and Otilor be that

I went to Escravos Bonny etc we dey enter town to go shop for "softwares" for Finima that time wey militancy dey hot

In Bauchi I don go one village wey be say na Okada f 3hrs dey get there otherwise na 9-11 lorries on Tuesday and Saturday(Market days)

That yellow jerry can shey na Gbola be that

I was posted to oporoza close to gbaramatu community after escravos....we spent about an hour on speed boat touring d frightening River on "death jacket".

There was a place we went to, I think benenikrukru.we were told crocodile comes out at wills and in rainy seasons d River would overflow d bank....the experience was fun though cos myself and fellow Corper were hgh on buzz ....

Even in d spirit of highness..I rejected d post and settled for ogbe-ijoh.

GloriousGbola:

Just like the way we stuff tissue papers into our oversized shoes, na memes and emojis he dey use package im shrunken brain make e nor dey shake for inside im skull.

Wch kind babe bdis

raumdeuter:
From North East West South.

The game is the game. Same thing Obaseki did to Oshiomole is what Oshiomole did to those ahead of him

What Soludo did to Obi was what Obi did to those in opposition ahead of him when he was governor

I responded to oasisx cos I just wanted to.


If election is just a game then I think I am right to remain mute on any election debate irrespective of how offensive it might sound....

So baba..no vex if I refuse to respond to any msg with a touch of election trabaye

OasisX:


Segedinho.... una carry LP trabaye too much for Edo.


Edo State House of Assembly Results;

PDP - 13
APC - 9
LP - 2

There isn't any election in Nigeria..

Systemic selection prevailed over democratic election.


So d old guard won anyway

BlueRayDick:
Segedinho we no hear from B-side today.,,, wetin sup for that area ?

Naija is officially gone.



Benin should be PDP courtesy vote buying

kingBolton:
And what was the need for the fofana and chalobah change?

Ibime:
Most 3-4-3 coaches actually close out games with 3-5-2

That's how Conte closed out every game we were leading in our title winning season, and Tuchel often brings in Kovacic in 2021

It's in their textbook

Close d game when you are in full control and leading with just a lone goal



Na wao........

Potter is uber useless

Almost

A lot of what Peter obi pulls are stunts. They look good for the camera, but ultimately add no value. My opinion sha

Same way he went to pose in one power control room and we were told he was on the verge of solving our power problems

Just like forfeiting landed properties as well saying NO to governor's overblown entitlement after serving

Your ancestor would be worshipped if he had tried to pull such a stunt...
