Following speculation in the social media on Monday on reduction of pump price of petrol to N57 per litre, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has insisted that the price remains at government regulated N87 per litre.

The corporation in a statement in Abuja described the purported reduction as false and advised "members of the public to ignore such tales", noting that the price of petrol remains N87 per litre, not N57/litre as reported.

Meanwhile, the corporation also disclosed that plans to have a hitch free distribution of petrol during December festive season have begun with a with a meeting between its Group Managing Director, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu and members of the Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria (MOMAN) alongside the Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association (DAPPMA).

NNPC said at the end of the session, it reached a consensus with key downstream operators to work together to eliminate all obstacles that could hamper the free flow of petroleum products across the country.

Addressing the downstream stakeholders, Kachikwu stated that the issue of uninterrupted supply and distribution of petroleum products across the country is of utmost importance to the present administration noting that government is willing to do everything possible to ensure that members of the public do not go through any form of hardship in accessing petroleum products particularly PMS.

On the protracted subject of outstanding payment to oil marketers, Kachikwu promised to work with other relevant Federal Government agencies to fast track the payment of the outstanding numbers, promising in the interim to arrange for a meeting with the relevant creditors (bankers) to ease off pressure on marketers and extend the credit lines.

He noted that several financing mechanism are being explored to offset the commitment to oil marketers including the possibility of exploring the monthly payment option.

He said: "In future we may explore some creative means to prevent backlogs".

Speaking on behalf of MOMAN, Femi Olawore, and Secretary General of the major marketers commended the GMD for his support and pledged the readiness of the marketers to work assiduously with the Federal Government in ensuring zero fuel scarcity across the nation in the fourth coming yuletide and even beyond.

Olawore called on Dr. Kachikwu to facilitate the institution of a special committee to verify and authenticate the current national PMS consumption figure of 40 million litres per day.

The Igbos were simply outclassed on the battle field even with the support of France & 5 other countries; Ojukwu fled when it dawn on him that the war is already lost by the biafrans.

You biafrans were lucky because it was Obasanjo a Yoruba man that finally conquered your remaining territories and he captured all your leaders but he didn't allow anyone of them to be killed. Obasanjo took them all to Gowon in Lagos in good condition, it would have been different if a Northerner captured them.

Let me stress further by saying that only the Yorubas returned properties left behind in Yoruba land back to the Igbos and they were the first tribe to allow igbos back to reside among them but the Igbo people never appreciated any of these but they rather hated the Yorubas.

My parents told me how our family members hid tens of Igbos in our family houses from the beginning of the war to the end of it, some family members even married a few of their women: Several Yoruba people took the same risk by hiding igbos but what do we get from Igbos, hatred for our hospitality.

A human rights activist, Comrade Adeniyi Sulaiman has declared that the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) has no economy blue print for the country, as it has not given any economic direction to the country except mere propaganda by his party, All Progressives Congress (APC).

Comrade Sulaiman also described the menace of corruption as the bane of economic and political crisis facing the country, calling for urgent action from the government at all levels with the cooperation of the Nigeria masses to stamp out the cankerworm out of nations’ system. He added that Buhari’s government has failed to assert its position on whether to remove the oil subsidy or not.

He also blasted Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State for his anti-people policies, stressing that Aregbesola was a disgrace to the human rights community in Nigeria which he claimed to be part of in the past, alleging that some known members of the community were giving encouragement to Aregbesola’s government to continue with anti-masses agenda, to the extent of running the State
aground despite allocations accruing to the State from the Federation Account.

He alleged that Aregbesola has run the State aground by putting Osun State into bankruptcy with the incurring of billions of naira loan in almost all commercial banks in the country, adding that “despite these loans, Governor Aregbesola has declared openly that the financial crisis facing the State was beyond his capacity.

He alleged that instead for Aregbesola to resign honourably ,he sent his groomed thugs popularly known as “STATE BOYS” “to disrupt a peaceful mass protest against him on Tuesday, July 7th,2015, where the thugs were directed to take his life for no just reason than being the leader of the human rights’ and Civil Societies Organization(CSO) that has been critics of his government”.

Speaking in Lagos as a guest speaker at a lecture/symposium entitled:”Degenerating Economy and Political Crisis, which way forward for Nigeria” organized by the National Conscience Party (NCP) to mark its 21st formation anniversary of the party /independence lecture symposium, held at the Gani Fawehinmi Memorial Organization(GAFAMORG) office hall at Olayinka Bamigbose, off Olowu, Ikeja, Sulaiman who is the Chairman, Civil Societies Coalition for the Emancipation of Osun State(CSCEO) stressed that Buhari’s administration was full of denial and lies of electioneering campaign promises, faulting President Buhari’s body language of looking for foreign help to solve the mirage of problems
facing the country.

According to him, “Presently, Nigeria economy is nothing to write home about, because the present administration of Buhari does not give any meaningful economy direction to the nation. Nigeria
people believed that immediately after Buhari was sworn-in, he would commence on redirection of the nation’s economy but till the present moment, President Buhari is looking for external help to
fix the Nigeria degenerating economy.

“To my surprise, Buhari could not assert his government’s position, whether to remove oil subsidy or not. Before he came into power, he posited that the fuel subsidy was a fraud of highest order and conduit pipe which few elements in the land, were using to siphone the commonwealth of the country into private pockets, but when he came, he continued in that direction; what a double speak and deal? “This is the reason why nothing has changed in our economy till today. I want to say unequivocally that General Muahhmmadu Buhari (rtd) does not have any economic blueprint for Nigeria and the nations’ masses will continue wallowing in abject poverty and my heart bleeds for those who supported them dogmatically during the electioneering process without asking a question. I strongly hold that it is very much in the national interest and national security to speak against the ills in our society, no matter whose ox is gored”, he stressed.

“I am very sure and I stand to be corrected that Muhammadu Buhari’s administration fights against corruption will fail because Buhari is not ready to fight corruption within his party and Yoruba adage says, ‘Charity must begin at home’, you could understand this position with Buhari’s body language and you will see that this government will be at the end of the day, be the government as usual. President Buhari would not be able to succeed in his fight against corruption with the advice of Professor Itse Sagay as Chairman, Presidential Advisory Committee on Anti-Corruption”, he stressed.

Can we just give this President time The last time I checked many of these people didn't see no reason to complain after 6 years of Jonathan's LOOT-FOR-ALL-GOVERNMENT.
Am not saying Buhari will come good but we must give him time before we hurl stones at him.

Had a heated argument with my girlfriend today. In the course of exchanging words she said that she is always approached by guys better than me, guys I can never compare to. she made it sound as though she is doing me a favour by dating me.

Though I love her and she loves me too, some words are relationship deal breakers. I just can't get that statement out of my head even after much apologies and crying on her part.

Who cares what happens in 100days. PMB is not a magician. With the rot in this systems called Nigeria, it would seem to take forever to fix it.
For all I care, if we can be honest with ourselves, those that 'know' knows it's no longer business as usual. You would be held accountable for your actions now.

That alone is worth more than a '100days' achievement. #LetsGiveHim4Years.

Yes your work experience has made you score low however you can increase your points to be eligible to apply by retaking your IELTS. Your writing and listening made you loose 3 points hence if you redo the test and get a 7 in writing and an 8 in listening you'll get the maximum 24 points for 1st language. However even if you do this you'll still be short of 1 point to make 67 therefore I'll also suggest you wait till March next year so you can make 3 years and hence qualify to apply.

JesusDWay:
Give us a breakdown of how you arrived at 63, its possible you are missing something. The only thing that can make you score low is if you dont have a good number of years of work experience or your age is high or possibly, you are calculating the score for language wrongly

zandora:
It has to be a direct relative so that when you provide your birth certificate the surname of your parents or maiden name of your mum would be the same as that of the relative you're claiming points for. Therefore it should be your parent's siblings.

zandora:
Wrong. I had neither of these but was still able to apply.

Firstly having a relative in Canada would only give you points towards the 67 points needed to qualify via the FSW route, it won't add to your EE score. The best and easiest way is to ace your IELTS exam. However if you're above 34 years of age with a Bachelor's degree as your highest qualification then you may find it necessary to apply for a PNP to boost your EE score.
