Originakalokalo:


No my brother.

What of robbery, sickness, diseases loss of loved ones (spouse, wife, children etc) Uncertainty at the job, uncertainty of how the children will turn out, kidnapping, gas explosions at home and so on?

Will a job of 500k per month remove all these?

What of people that have nothing to eat as a result of corruption of the government?

Will everyone have access to 500k per month?

I am not thinking about myself alone.

I say again,

Come quickly Lord.
Back your faith with works by eating all your nice foods as you wait on the lord to show up.

Crude price was 100$, do u know how much fuel was?
Crude price is hovering between 67-70$ now, fuel is 165naira.
Bulk of the monies made was invested in subsidy...
Imagine if crude price is 100$ Now, we will be buying fuel at 280 even with subsidy.

There are still ND people in the army and police that will attempt to crush another resistance. The civil war was a little bit ambiguous for the ND because they were split befween the western and eastern region.

God bless you brother, some people will just type just to type.. It's either subsidy remains or price goes up or we wait patiently for d the private refineries to come to work or we find a way to rehabilitate the refineries. I think nigeria does not have the monetary capacity to build 4 new refineries for now.
We have it.

Economic Jihad has been on since the civil war was declared closed.
If you are the north and you just just crushed a southern secession resistance, can you move all the oil in ND across the country at once as part of your victory loot?
You need a new structure to slowly transfer this humongous resource and that's what Nigeria is.

Subsidybad21:


1.Well in 2011, crude oil was selling at $100 and above per barrel. By 2015, it was selling at $75 ,. by 2016, $20 , today $71 . That is why your generator was cheaper then, as well as laptops....there was enough forex to buffer the naira, and we had more dollars flowing in in 2011 compared to 2021.

We were here before...take that peugeout you said cot 20000 in 1990...in 1982 it cost less than 10000 naira, in 1976 it cost 6000. Between 1973-82 OIL PRICES WERE higher than ever. Then from 1982, oil crashed, and we had a hard economic crisis...which led to us adopiting SAP to survivie in 1986..by 1993, we were running a deficit budget.

It is called the resource curse. Oil dependent countries all go through it. That's why APC not diversifying is sad and misreable.
God bless you for this important understanding.

Even Saudi Arabia is witnessing mass exodus of citizens and is no where as secure(financially) as it uses to.

That name(GEJ) is unique. The surge in crude prices under him was more than enough to build 10 mega refineries like Lekki own.
He was busy building small structures to impress and secure his own political future. Now see where we are. Only God knows when his people will be back in Aso Rock again if they ever make it.

Racoon:
This is how we always get it wrong.Subsidy payment is a function of the FG as the regulation of petroleum products and pricing by the NNPC & PPPRC respectively is an exclusive right of the FG despite the denial.

The government owes the nation an explanation on any change in policy regardless of changes in the global price of crude oil because there must be probity and then accountability without which the endless corruption in the NNPC with go on unabated.
If subsidy is removed and crude oil products are priced freely by market forces, the citizens end up groaning.

The most reasonable solution is to cut out unnecessary middlemen adding their own cut to the final prices in a free market situation by building or maintaining efficient refineries.

Racoon:

"A single lie destroys a reputation built over many years." For a budding political party like the then emerging APC, they could have played opposition with caution and wisdom but not in our side of the world.

They condemned the subsidy which was of course a major source of economic wastage without any iota of rational thinking even denouncing it as a complete fraud.Just as the case with the BH insurgency, anti-corruption fight among many other things.

Fast forward to 5 years later, they are not only secretly paying(cum looting) same, but made it an official policy of government to brazenly lie to Nigerians about same.
Unanswered questions remains:
-1).Who approved the subsidy or alleged subsidy under-recovery funds the NNPC have been paying?
-2).Why is the price of petrol and other petroleum products still high despite these payments with occasional unavailability of these products.
-3).Why have the Buhari-led government been lying to Nigerians thereby insulting the sensibility of a nation they are governing?
These questions aren't necessary. Changing crude price means changing subsidy. What I cannot comprehend is why govt cannot declare a state of emergency on the four underperforming refineries under them or build a new one that will be profitable.

In 36 months that can effectively build a refinery like the mega one in Lekki and correct a lot of economic errors in Nigeria.
No leader wants to do the reasonable thing(GEJ inclusive).

Bad losers are plenty on this forum.

Political partnership between some western politician and northern politicians is now a slave-master relationship.


If PDP had gone in, it would have been a slave-master relationship between the east and north I guess.
A region that give approximately half their votes to the two major parties is a balanced one unlike the one that gives 95% to one. The latter sounds more like the one in a slave and master relationship.

South African prison authorities accepted the wrong from their official. Now they are going to work and be better. But Nigeria authorities will deny and claim it was doctored and they system will keep getting worse because they don’t accept their mistakes. 2 NPF stole phones and the NPF authorities were busy threatening the citizens who caught their official stealing.

.. Your religion also says women should cover their heads and bodies..See 1timothy 2:9,1corinthians11:5-6,deutronomy 22:5...But you prefer to worship your religious scholars instead of the God that created you,because those ones are always telling you about"prosperity"and other lies that you want to hear..If the Christian ladies prefer to dress half naked even in churches, and the Muslims are not forcing them to cover their bodies,why are the Christians complaining about Muslims women covering their bodies?..
Kwara State is a predominantly Muslim state, go to Rivers,Akwaibom,anambra etc.. and do what you want to do there..
That same religion also says two can only walk together when they agree. Is there an agreement? Did the Bible say women should cover themselves around or in God's presence?
