This is why Nigeria can never be good NEVER we are always quick to blame the government for our problems, whereas we are our own problem.
How can people vandalize what will benefit them on the long run, I really fear for our children and the future if we are behaving like this, and we want Nigeria to be as good as Dubai. We really deserve the leaders that are ruling us.

my opinion. I remember when I was used to baby sit my brother daughter. The fowl in our house back then will step on me whenever I slept on the three sitter couch at my mum's shop.but whenever I placed the baby on the same couch,they will never step on her.they will just pass by her side.

Low fuel prices due to subsidy led to breakdown of refinereis led to us refining fuel abroad in bad refinereis, which led to this

Subsidy must go so that profits would be available to build and maintain standard refineries.

If you want good quality you pay for it.

Again another theoretical bull shit coming from a person that believes he knows so much about fuel subsidy.
Let me tell u something u don't understand or know this bad fuel that is been circulated or sold now just shows u why we should never place fuel importation in the hands of greedy private marketers they will do and undo, they will even go as far as selling adulterated fuel just to make illegal profit, towards the end of the year they will make fuel scare and sell @ whatever price they give us telling us there is not enough money to buy imported fuel.
If I may ask @backbencher DO YOU OWN A CAR OR DO U RUN A PRIVATE BUSINESS THAT REQUIRES DAILY EXPENSES ON FUEL TO RUN GENERATOR or do u even live in Nigeria, cos if u do I don't believe u will be talking like this.

I fully understand the despair and all the challenges at home which is largely responsible for this ugly situation.

But why going through so much just to cross to another country, they will gather a lot of money, movement from one African country to another before embarking on the dangerous journey of uncertainty.

They will finally end up sleeping on the streets of European countries after getting there, some of them hawk and sweep to make ends meet, but back at home they won't do those things because of pride.

Why going to another country to become a third class citizen?

There's this wrong notion that as a graduate you must work inside one fine office with suit and tie, live a lavish lifestyle and try to impress men and women.
Nollywood movies and Nigerian politicians encourage this a lot.

We worship people that return from abroad, even if they do dirty jobs like drugs, all our people want to see when you return is beautiful car and house and they will worship you automatically.

Are Nigerians outside even enjoying? Because some bad ones have soiled our reputation badly, we don't have good image anywhere in the world, even within Africa, nobody trusts a Nigerian anymore, so why going through so much just to become an object of ridicule out there? They end up doing those menial jobs they won't do at home.

We look down on people that make legitimate ends meet in Nigeria through menial jobs but worship and glorify Yahoo boys and corrupt politicians! Something is indeed wrong with us.

No society can make headways with this kind of mindset and mentality our people have.

Let me tell u something u don't know. Even China that is trying to rub shoulders with the US some of their citizens will love to run away from China to come to the US, same thing with India that sees Dubai and London as the next heaven on earth.
Same thing with the Russians,Japanese, even Koreans they all want to japa from their own country to other more tolerant,sane and Law abiding countries where human rights are respected and not abused. The only country i know of in Africa where they love their country is the South Africans check it and see.
So my brother its not only in Nigeria we want better life its eveywhere, cos I believe if u had the chance to japa u will

If I may ask when last has a proper AUDIT been carried out @ NNPC cos if that should happen a lot of happenings and secrecy will be exposed.
Let the NNPC be AUDITED 1st then we can carry on from there.

lazy Nigerian industrialists, modular refinery with capacity 1000bpd cost less than 100k dollars to set up.

If it were dat easy I would have built a modular refinery myself, my brother to build a 10,000bpd refinery cost nothing less than $300m and above google it and see u think its that easy

This guys are damn lucky that the law does not work in this country by now the school and all parties involved will be serious trouble. Let's put sentiment aside the parents of the boy have not gotten Closure yet and that is really painful.

Sorry if I may ask what is wrong with Donald Duke running as a presidential aspirant or even becoming the president of this country the man's track record when he was governor of Cross rivers seems impressive.
Moreover he has age on his side he his just 60yrs old but looks 45, he is innovative,dynamic,handsome and very experienced.

VULCAN:
You are deeply obsessed with hastening subsidy removal.

I went back over your posts and that's the number 1 thing you harp on.

You mentioned developing countries that have removed subsidies and also other things that back the argument for the removal.

Nowhere did I see you make mention of the effects of subsidy removal on the country with the most people in extreme poverty.

Nowhere did I see you make mention of the fantastically corrupt politicians that Nigeria is saddled with, whom in your depth of naivete you believe will suddenly develop a conscience and channel those billions into programs that actually help to create a better life for the masses. Despite the glaring evidence to the contrary you keep parroting theoretical economic theory and refuse to take into account such a local environment.

That you remain blissfully unaware that our politicians are privately gleeful over the poverty of the masses explains why you think that that subsidy money will be used to better lives. You are ignorant if you don't know that our politicians weaponise poverty.

Haven't you heard that culture eats strategy for breakfast?

I don't know if you live in Nigeria but food stuff that was donated by companies as palliatives for the poor was stockpiled in warehouses for politicians to dish out in trickles at parties. That is the same place that you dream will allocate subsidy money to good causes. A country that borrows billions 'purportedly' to build infrastructure that CANNOT generate sufficient returns to make interest repayments.

Every month this govt announces how they have disbursed billions in cash to faceless citizens. Nobody knows who these people are because they actually don't exist. They give money to one MSME and record forty. There are no checks and balances.

You write rather intelligently but when a person ignores harsh realities staring them in the face but chooses to copy and paste solutions used in other climes that are very different from yours then you realise such intelligence does more harm than good.

So if you were the Minister of Finance or the President, you would remove subsidies and watch your people return to firewood in the 21st century?

You would sit idly by and watch your people trek 2hrs to work every morning on the basis of economic theory?

The removal of subsidy will NEVER lead to a fall in the price of petroleum products for a number of reasons but the first is the importers will form an oligopoly and keep prices high

Now reading through your previous posts I saw no empathy whatsoever for the poor.

Probably you are privileged and are out of touch with the abject poverty MOST Nigerians are wallowing in.

Maybe you are deceived by the 1% of the 1% who drive Rolls Royce around.

Wake up and smell the coffee.

Well said guy u are the 1st person that has really seen past the theoretical bullshit this @backbench always post about subsidy removal. His theories is about removing the nose to spite the face.

wisdom042:
And we say Nigeria will grow, my question is when?

My answer is NEVER

The funny thing is they are not removing any subsidy they just want to increase pump price of fuel to continue to live/sponsor thier extravagant and flamboyant lifestyle cos the govt still determines the price of fuel being sold, so where is the subsidy removal, SMH.
Honestly speaking this guys don't know what they are getting their hands into you increase everything around u EXCEPT SALARIES. Very soon the poor will have nothing to eat but the rich mark my words.

Senomi:
She's happy cos her daughter didn't turn out like a typical black american woman, who drops out of high school and ends up becoming a baby mama to several drug addicts, gangsters and ex-convicts, while living off child support and government aids

Wow this says a lot and is so sad

Is it that some people have comprehension problem or they just want to join the bandwagon and feel among just to comment for comment sake.
Spaghetti is different from NOODLES someone was even saying he can eat two HABA for christ sake that's Murder in the 1st degree
This is the spaghetti the op is talking about not indomie noodles

Where are those that are in support of subsidy removal egg backbencher abi what is his name,that guy will only be talking theoretically and not thinking practically. He is thinking removing subsidy will help this damned nation, where all the leaders are so corrupt they don't see past their noses all they want is WETIN BE MY SHARE/CUT FOR INSIDE.
What we are seeing in the diesel side will be child's play compared with what will happen when all the greedy private marketers begin to determine price of fuel without govt intervention. Mark my words and today's date if this subsidy is removed crime rate,kidnappings,and death will rise to a level that will be too disastrous to imagine. I really pity this country they don't know want they are getting their hands into..........
