Politics / Re: Why Is Nigeria Paying More For Fuel, And What Are The Solutions? Reno Omokri by Standing5(m): 2:10am On Sep 07 |
Tellmeastory:China Australia, ME still exists as markets an I am sure those would smuggle them into US and EU plus South America don't roll with US economically. Even at that, it is perfectly possible to go to US and EU as investors and process them locally over there. That's why we must make public businesses work here and not just resort to hate filled politics of domination. Keep your flimsy excuses to yourself and stop rationalizing slavery. Before Dangote build a world record refinery, the theory was that the west and cabals they work with wont allow such and African development but today, where are they? Where? The refinery is not only firing, it is taking their favourite Brent crude and coming to their juicy markets once local consumption is satisfied. That's what can be done with cocoa too. Process it or take it there to be processed in their own set standard or allow their enemies smuggle it into their territory and just sit back n laugh. |

DeLaRue:The actual subsidy to the masses is so small, it makes the logic of Omokri here flawed. Our fuel consumption is artificially high because smuggling exists. The beneficiaries are the elite who pretend to want a solution but in reality love the problem because it benefits them. It makes no sense for subsidy to make way for wastage and corruption. Even China and USA subsidizes the lifestyle of their poor and their critical industries. In Nigeria we have no critical industries but untouchable industrialists and individuals. Thats why steel plants are comatose. Cotton industry that can employ millions if well integrated into fashion and upholstery, is down and always waiting for govt intervention(industrial subsidy) because of the section of the country it favours while cocoa and chocolate that still alive and can earn us, in short or medium term, almost as much as oil if harnessed, is treated like a poison. The problem of Nigeria is well beyond taxes and unavailability of funds. A deep rooted division. 40 Likes 2 Shares |

The logic Reno is trying to sell here is akin to analysing sources of water in a household but never the facts that water management and storage in that house is a colossal mess and leaks heavily(corruption). The people favoured most by this leak & mess have overtime made it look negligible for selfish reasons. Reno's piece is just an extension of that wicked negligible narrative pattern. In a country where going to another country to stone a devil is of higher priority than health and education, the lower taxes and compliance rate is not a big deal given that same structure and ethics that was in place when huge resources were exhausted and even used ahead of time in form of loans and unproductive projects, is alive to make a mess of whatever taxes the poor pay. 33 Likes 7 Shares |

Good step but refining can yield different output depending how the refiner chooses to refine. That means petrol output can be avoided based on market realities and diesel output increased. 2 Likes |
