WAPINATION: I thought baba said they want to allow the poor breeft….wht is now happening all at the same time?
Subsidy removed fuel price high by 300%
Subsidy on electricity to be removed sure Nepa bill is gon be crazy high
Subsidy on Diesel was long gone the reason diesel price has been where it is ( High) now importers to pay duty meaning the price of diesel is going to increase again and its gon be higher this time…
My question is even though I support the removal of all these subsidy here and there must all be done at the same time? why haven't the president and his team introduce measures in place for a soft landing for the people before removing all these things.
The worst of it all is no matter how hard it will bite the people I assure you aren't going to see anyone protesting. fellow Nigerians who are jubilating and celebrating over a mere signing of documents here and there that has not in anyway translated to their proper wellbeing…Una weldone
Nigeria is the victim of docile and divided people. When the Military government were destroying the electricity and refinery industry, Nigeria failed to protest. Nigerian have endured 8 years of Buhari's hopeless leadership now the pay the price.
Shettima is telling the truth and should not apologise. He didn't say Muslims are incompetent, but the so-called puritanical Northern Muslims like Yari will always be hopelessly useless.
Shettima was quoted to have said the most incompetent southern Christian is better than the most puritanical northern Muslim.
The vice president reportedly said this while making a case for a south-south Christian candidate to become senate president.
Even though the All Progressives Congress (APC) had nominated Godswill Akpabio for the position
ganisucks: I hate to discuss things that are not peripheral, but in this case I'll make an exception. I hope you know that what you just posted is actually not in your favour. If two states could produce 18,000 blurred result sheets, how many would the other 34 states produce. It's 1...2...3 elementary.
That is based on the assumption that the two states reflect 18 states. The law is based on facts and not assumption PO team must prove that there was cheating in 18 states
Cooly100: The SE is the power house of development..
Pic 1 Nike a fairly poor suburb in Enugu
Pic 2 a fairly poor suburb in Lagos..
What do you see and what do you think?
Stop speaking big grammar..show images for people to see.
I support SE people to go home as they are doing now.
If the SE is so nice, what are the Igbos doing in the South West? The two pictures you presented suggest that the SE is developed, yet Igbos constantly migrate to the SW.
There are shipping ports in the SS and SE, and nothing stops the Igbos from building their private port like Lekki Port. I am just fed up with Igbos always saying that SE is more developed, yet they cannot live there.
Nightwolf1: It is tribalism. There are many thieves in Buhari administration. Let's see how many will be arrested and prosecuted to reasonable conclusion.
Stoplying: Wales and Scotland are part of the UK, does (or doesn't) that make the Welsh and the Scottish brothers? When you reason like a 6 year old and believe you are Albert Einstein.
Olodo,
Being part of an Empire in the past doesn't indicate that you will be part of that empire in the future. The former Benin empire has receded to the border of Edo state. Lagos is now part of greater Yorubaland and a Federal Republic of Nigeria constituent.
flokii: All in a bid to chase clout, idi0ts like Deji Adeyanju rush to post nonsense on SM.. The other one with PhD came after Shonubi but the headless mob are trying to spin things around to defame the President.
Deji Adeyanju is ignorant. Shounubi is a Mechanical Engineer by training; his profession is in finance. i do agree that a sound economist should be considered for the role, and I would look no further to Moghalu
Stoplying: Let me guess, you are actually not even a true Lagosian. Lagos was part of Benin empire/kingdom. The true Lagosians are brothers of the people of Edo-state.
Nigeria was once part of British Empire, are the true Nigerian brother of the British.
That is the right way to go but has nigeria been known to go the right way? I learnt that some airlines spend as much as a million dollars for servicing. Wo Nigeria is not good for entrepreneurs. From hostile communities to hostile civil service . I think it was even said that the mro you mentioned never even got off
The Chinese, Indians and Lebanese are doing very well in Nigeria; we can sit down and do nothing or do what every entrepreneur does and take the risk.
Bundaweber: Not really feasible. Those airlines service thier planes and they pay for it in dollars not naira. Of naija had a good industrial complex then yes what you stated is the best way to go
This is a big business opportunity for Nigeria entrepreneurs,
Last week an MRO facility was opened in Akwa Ibom. The country needs to open more MRO nationwide to reduce the dependency on the dollar. They will still have to import spare parts, but with time OEM suppliers can be encouraged to set up factories in the country.
The amount of money wasted on the corrupt Nigeria Air should have been invested in building MROs at all international and local airports.
samsard: They didn't borrow. Foreign airlines collect payment in Naira then they take it to the CBN and then get dollars which they can repatriate. The problem is that CBN is managing dollars and can no longer fulfil that obligation unhindered. So they have money in naira which is useless to them.
Why not just tell the airline to use Naira like Russia has done? Nigeria cannot continue to depend on the dollar, countries around the world are reducing their exposure to the dollar.
Obrigardo: As usual, poor nigerians will rush to his praise considering the fact, this is poverty level pay. My God this is not even up to $100 a month! Jesus! A country with all this Oil abundance.
Oil is being stolen and polluting the land. Nigeria has an abundance of poverty , illiteracy and criminal
Dreal1247: The truth is that in Nigeria, the politicians and the elites are allowed to use the masses at will. The masses are hired to protest in support of the oppressors. The jumbo pension for the ex-presidents should be thoroughly reviewed, the salaries of the Government officials should be reviewed. It is time to occupy Nigeria and demand for the detailed report on the alleged illegal exports of crude oil that took place for years. The medical tourism by serving government personnels must be stopped. The community leaders and representatives should be carried along concerning community developmental activities in their domain. The constituency votes of the lawmakers should be made public. They must explain to the constituents how the votes are being utilized. Enough of protesting for any politician to maintain their madness but to keep them on their toes.
When Sowere said to occupy Nigeria, you told him to join Peter Obi Nigeria and that the election is lost, you are now wailing. Reducing the cost of government is the first step to improving the country's finance.
richidinho: You have not announce what the political class are willing to sacrifice but you want the masses to sacrifice everything for you to countinue living large
We don't trust this govt.
They have truly shown to Nigerians that the mandate they operates on is a Stolen one
That is for your representation to discuss in the House of Assembly.
This should include cutting government operation costs, improving the delivery of refined oil to customers, fixing the electricity power station and building new ones.
Nigeria presently has one of the fastest development in refinery infrastructures in the world: I will suggest that TUC/NLC monitor the delivery of the refineries below and work with refinery suppliers to ensure that Nigeria has a competitive market to ensure a competitor. The subsidies has to removed

Redoil: Tinubu once opposed subsidy removal during GEJ administration when cost of living was relatively cheap. His party is in government for the past eight years and they didn't build any refinery. The masses will suffer it the more now his party has removed subsidy in the midst of suffering. ' Same way when the past regime of President Goodluck Jonathan wanted to remove and rid Nigeria of this economic monster 13 years ago, but all you demons in the APC vehemently opposed him only to perpetuate the same fraudulent fuel subsidy then lied of removing it again and again. Bunch of fucktards and retards.
and as for EMILOKAN AND THOSE APC EVIL ONLINE MINIONS carry your broom go filling station and shout emilokan and see the amount of biscuit that will fill your jerrycan
Did GEJ build a single refinery in the 6 years that he was in government? GEJ spent billions on TAM without a single result and if he wasn't weak he should have removed oil subsidies. Right now Nigeria has
JAWBONE: In Tinubu's newspaper. Why didn't we get this "op-ed" before election?
Same thing that happened to Osinbajo when he dared to contest against Tinubu. They called him a Judas in this same newspaper in an op-ed too.
The person who wrote the op-ed has the flag of Lagos stationed behind him. Probably a Lagos govt official.
It is called politics and strategy. You don't fight a man that has power over you. You get the power, then strike. Maybe PO and the Obidient will learn how to do politics
Angelfrost: They owe the man a strong and unreserved apology!... They should also apologize to Nigerians for setting them back by over a decade!
GEJ owes Nigerians an apology because he could have removed the subsidy regardless of the protest but didn't, he could have repaired the refineries, but didn't he could have to decentralise the electricity; instead, he sold it to his friend.
Eriokanmi: Buhari's lifestyle is so simple, which was why I voted him in the past. This man was wearing his old banaringa as president for months. Had he circulated himself with intelligent people and fellows of like-mind, his government would have fated better than those who ruled before him. The nepotism he's known for didn't allow him to pick good brains across Nigeria.
That is what he is making you believe. You should ask Buhari to show you the interior of his house in Dubai.
Nigerians have reacted to a video showing the interior of former president, Muhammadu Buhari‘s house in Daura, Katsina state.
Buhari and his family moved into the house following the end of his tenure as president.
The video showed Buhari asking questions about the air conditioner in the apartment and some Nigerians said that the house wasn’t befitting for a former president.
Fake news, he has billion stacked away in his house in Dubai. This is how the Fulani play on the the ignorant Nigerians

God1000: Yeah I know Hungary is a NATO member, but the Hungarian prime minister is a big hypocrite.
History has never been kind to invaders, posterity will judge everyone
You better read up on your history because history has always been kind to invaders, just ask the Fulani's in Northern Nigeria, the English in USA and Canada, Arabs in North Africa, Israeli, and Spanish, the world is made up of invasion.
