Under fair consideration, food prices shouldn't see more than 20% increase because the heavy lifting is done by diesel powered trucks. We all know diesel price didn't go up. Petrol use is mostly for short distances.

Dey play, because d diesel driver kids n wife whose transport n food bill will go up?

Their brain go don sleep

Basic123:

Thanks for increasing my knowledge.


Do cars that use CNG have different design?

It cost 250k to convert a normal 4 cylinder engine.

They won't remove anything, they just add d CNG capability to your car. They will also place a gas tank in your booth but it is very safe. U can choose whether to run your car ok petrol or CNG by yourself with just a switch they will put in your dashboard

Bloody liars. All of them borrow money from banks, the banks even queue up to offer them d cash cos it's sure profit.

Anyone of then that claims they use their money shd come let me swear for him with obatala

Werey

Over a decade ago, i had my secondary school edu in St. Anthony's Ilorin n most of us lived very far from school.

In order to save fuel, Will Mr. GOVERNOR also tell school children to come to school three times per week?

gabbytabby:
You no reason well who go convert whose car. Secure loan for supplementary budget or you think the money go fall down from heaven

All d subsidy u paid for 8 years, how did u secure the loan?

CBN actually started the conversion until some people told them to stop so d masses can keep queuing for fuel n ensure d suffering

The budgeted 250B to convert 1 million cars but they stopped after converting about 10,000 cars. This solution is not alien to Nigeria at all

GeneralPula:

Your analogy is lame. Wake up to reality..

There’s no budget for Fuel subsidy in the 2023 budgets.

Baba u r dull. Submit a supplementary budget if there is no budget provision.

Nobody, not even d NLC president has come out to say BAT should not remove subsidy.

Take d price to ₦300 first, show us what u have done with the savings, in a year's time, u can justify total removal.

With 1 trillion, u can convert 4M cars in Nigeria to use CNG. CNG is less than ₦130 per litre n is more fuel efficient than petrol. But na, if d masses do not suffer, how will d politicians feed?

Standing5:
Nonsense. You are not affected by the prices so keep shut. Let those affected express their opinion.

I can bet u he has never bought a little of fuel or even ₦100 recharge card "with his own personal money" in the last 10 years. How dem wan take feel wetin we dey feel, they feed on government money

This one dey joke sha, Na u dey buy fuel for them

Return d price to 195. No marketer ever uses their money to import fuel, they all borrow from banks. It's easy money to borrow cos banks always get their money n their interest is calculated per litre.

Saying they won't have money to import is the biggest lie ever.

Phase out subsidy. Take prices to 300 first.

Show us what u can achieve with a little and after just one year, u can now justify a total removal.

I am sha very certain that the masses can't afford this. When hunger hit everybody, even d 30k Batists will enter street to grumble.

alanto:

If they remove it in 25 days to come or 7 days ago, what difference does it make...
I think the FG is being fair to the marketers. It's simple, you bought goods for 10 naira today sold it and make 15 naira, you want to restock but now it's 23 naira. How are you going to buy new stock? don't you think will bring more hardship on Nigerians because oil marketer may need to source for loans with interest which will make the fuel even more costly.
They have a month window to make their money while the government go through the process of helping the masses is a very smart move.
You are mad it was not conceived and executed by your candidate and that's a shame

Oloriburuku ni gbogbo yin Se.

Marketers borrow money from d bank to import fuel.

None of them used their own money even d major players.

The banks borrow them easily cos they know they will get it back with zero sweat.

Before u argue with your father, I interned at an agency responsible for setting fuel prices 10 years ago. I pretty sure I know more about petroleum pricing than your NNPC GMD

nairalanda1:


No, he signed a law, called the PIA, that in essence provided for subsidy funding till the end of June.(it would have been much earlier, but Buhari rushed an amendment that extended it for several months.)

The reason why prices are going high is because marketers know that if they do not raise prices and make money now, they won't have enough money to buy new stock by July the first at the new higher price that would be in effect then.

That could lead to scarcity.

Don't be dumb. No marketer has ever used their money to import fuel.

All of them borrow from Bank n FG pays d bank interests.

It cost about about ₦125 max per litre to buy Compressed natural gas (CMG).

CNG powered cars r slightly more fuel efficient than petrol.

You can have both CNG n Petrol in d same car n use which ever one u prefer with just a simple switch on d dashboard.

There are 12 million cars in Nigeria.

If Tinubu drops just 1trillion naira, he will covert 4million cars for free or convert 8million cars if he ask d owners to also cover half of the costs.

Conversation on such a large scale will cost less that ₦250k per vehicle.

But will he do this? You n I know the answer. How will d thieves feed if things are made easy for the masses?

The CBN abandoned it's intiative to convert 1million cars for free. This solution is not foreign to Nigeria.

Dotherightthing:


Really

See, we in the SW know it's high time subsidy is removed.

And we trust our own to follow through with it.

This is not Lagos "Baba so wipe" politics, u r about to find out why 65 percent of d voting population didn't vote for Ur god.

Banhammy717:
Pls I can't understand.
Does NLC want federal government to continue paying fuel subsidy to petroleum marketers?

Phase out subsidy gradually then show us what I have done with the savings, not this nonsensical removal in one swoop.

Fuel is now more expensive in Nigeria than d US, n our minimum wage is $70.

Dotherightthing:
The SW won't be joining the strike thereby rendering it dead on arrival...

True, because d south west are buying fuel for 195. I am not convinced u have a brain

optionalY09:
Nonsense nationwide strike, if there is any strike i will sack labor leader and replace him quickly with a loyalist. Any company that john the strike will lose its business license. Nna no well.

If anyone obstructs the peace of the country they will be shut at

Let's assume that u can survive on d 30k they pay u and live on garri n kulikuli per month. How will your mother n father feed? U shd at least consider them as well.

Yeah, same people that want to use subsidy money to turn Nigeria to Dubai

Globad:


So, in your deluded and rotten mind, everyone that supports the removal of subsidy is paid by the government? You're a big fool!

May you die unsung for this nonsense you're spewing!

You are just a 30k agent. Even if u can manage Ur 30k for a month by drinking garri, how will your family feed? How will your friends that do all these lowly jobs feed?

Menclothing:


If your brain is working you will know when everyone is allowed to import price will Come down.

Am an importer not a low life person like you use your brain

I think u were born yesterday. Marketers will fix price at a round table.

The incompetence of the government will not be passed on d masses.

D fact that u order phone chargers from AliExpress can't possibly make u an importer.

Just relax, hungry go soon wire u

Globad:


Pele, the real life destitute

Ehen, d 30k beggar must show face. The people u are defending drive in long convoys in Abuja here and they have never bought fuel with their money.

I no say dem swear for una, but una must get sense.

How cleaners, security, sales girl, clerks, secretary, even some bank workers wan cope.

Ogun go fire all of una

Menclothing:
Waste of time subsidy is gone the people benefiting 6 trillion a year will sponsor this

No more Que in Lagos

If price is force to come down only NNPC will be selling
Que will be long
Black market will now be selling at 1k above is Nlc so dumb

Price of petrol is now higher than in USA n Ur minimum wage is $70. I no say dem swear for u but e no suppose worse reach like this

Globad:


You're right. They're wasting their time

Pele, hungry online rat

Parachoko:
NLC strike will fail woefully

Subsidy is Gone for good

If we check now, u no get reach 20k for akant. I know say u sef go still join d protest

After u don waste Ur time with every boy on d block in your youth, e reach my turn, u say because u dey near 30, u say mk I no waste Ur time. Sorry o, but my time is my time.a

Nobody is capable of wasting ur time without ur permission. Life is much easier when u take responsibility for your own actions rather than blaming men.

If u don't want someone to waste Ur time, find a guy in d village n pay his bride price

obinna58:

Are you so blind? She wants a man she’ll control and thought she found him only for things to overturn at the dying minute

He took the wheel at extra time and she’s not having it

I believe the guy shd be d one to call it off, n find another woman, perhaps someone 10 years younger will even have his mumu button.

There can only be one captain. Even among lions, there is only one king.

Those two are not compatible.

Djbme:


What nonsense palliative
Covi19 palliative reach your side?

U dey mind d mumu. If they remove that subsidy dem go still reloot am.

No too worry yourself, everybody still dey manage d fuel wey we buy for 195, just wait until fuel finish for people motor by next week, Na SW d protest go from start.

Remove 50percent, show us wetin u do with money, then remove the rest after a yr.

Iwedunloye:


The money wasn’t budgeted beyond June, so will Obi pay with his money starting from July?

Not an excuse, Tinubu could had submitted a supplementary budget.

In February, d NNPC CEO said landing cost is 315. How come we are paying over 500 now? What is your Tinubu doing about the robbery or he knows about it

Renewed suffering be this o

sirklin:
Dangote refinery was celebrated like it was next big thing after garri. Dignitaries graced the occasion. Buhari removed subsidy to make sure his refinery thrive.

Innoson has been producing cars. Call it assembled cars but it was done in Nigeria. FG that championed made in Nigeria has never patronised Innoson because he is from a particular tribe they don't wish to grow.

This information is wrong. I live in Abuja n quite of a few government vehicles are innoson. Toyota is still the overwhelming favourite tho

77star:

Good evening wise one, please so sorry to derail the topic, I have a question to ask you you, which goes thus;

I tried to save money in one of our Nigerian bank, please how can convert and save it to dollars?

Bcoz the work I'm doing is menial and to save no dey easy as I'm trying my possible best to leave the car race, please I need your enlightenment, thank you.

You will need to open a Dom account at any bank. However, the condition is that you will need two references from people with a CURRENT account. This current account is usually owned by salary earners or business people. Once u open d account, u can buy dollar from aboki (any amount) and deposit it in your dollar account. Don't collect torn dollar from aboki o, even if it is a minor tear
