Deal with the message, not the messenger.
Is what Kemi saying true or false? That is the question.
Thank you all.
FALSE!!!
Because you lack capacity to police your borders or think strategically, you lazily adopt inferiority complex. Make subsidy a pump ONLY benefit, not dock or port volume and stop being unintelligent.

I thought you people claimed Tinubu had a deal with Adeleke, where is this theatric coming from again?

By the way when the same Omisore handed Oyetola the 2018 win after Adeleke was leading by over 5k votes in the first ballot, you did not complain. Be a sport man my friend, APC lost in Osun, and they will lose nationally come January 2027.

Parachoko:
I don't understand why the road was given to an incompetent contractor.
If nah HI-TECH dey construct the road, they won't let it detetoriate like this
If nah HI-TECH dem give, some bitter people go dey complain instead of given the Company the Thumbs up they deserve
Lol, defender of incompetent certificate forger and drug lord. Who selected the contractor, I guess it is Peter Obi's FEC?
When Obi raised alarm about the state of that road, your incompetent president ask his incompetent minister to call for useless debate. Today, you blame the contractor.
Never has Tinubu accepted responsibility for his catastrophic failure.

See the type of thing you are showcasing to the whole world on global viewership platform. Tomorrow you will lie that the whole world is rushing to invest in Tinubu's distraught nation.

Even if Tinubu sells diesel for N100, we are voting him out. We cannot suffer for 3 and half years with propaganda only to be caressed with Greek gift for 3 months to elections. So if Ariku did not promise return of subsidies, Tinubu will keep on milking Nigerians and feeding Chargoury family.
Politics › Re: What If Atiku Wins The 2027 Election? by Validated: 4:20am On Aug 29
nairalanda1:
He won't return the fuel subsidy...

1. The removal of fuel subsidy is enshrined in law. The PIA , sections 205 and 207 essentially say that the market should set the prices of fuel. Unless he wants to revoke the law, which he cannot do just like that, he needs the NA for that, and we do not know how the NA election would turn out to be..nothing can be done.

2. Nigeria has been borrowing to fund the budget for over ten years, and right now, borrowing is funding half of this year's budget. This is partly because subsidy payments till 2023 hindered our ability to raise enough revenue to pay for budgets, which worsened our debt, which is why ironically the tinubu government is borrowing more than other governments.

And our revenue is not going to increase. Nigerians have rejected the government widening the tax base, and the government has not diversifed our revenue streams, and even if they got serious about it today, it would take a very long time before we see returns.

So, any subsidy return would mean essentially that we are paying for it with borrowed money.


3. Because the pricing of crude oil is volatile and is not controlled by government...government cannot determine it, no matter what anyone says...a subsidy on crude, which is what atiku is talking about...is not going to work.

The problem with subsidy is, the government can budget say N12 trillion naira for it for say next year, and then all of a sudden, oil prices rise during the year, pushing up subsidy costs, and leading to government having to borrow to pay for the increased cost, which means more borrowing.

This is the situation, whether we do subsidy on 'petrol leaving the refinery' or subsidy based on selling crude at low prices to the refinery. Government cannot control actual production costs...and trying to do so would end in more borrowing.

It's even worse if crude oil prices fall. Not only does available revenue to pay for subsidy costs fall, but subsidy costs in naira may also rise, meaning more borrowing , meaning ...same story.

People abuse me on this site for saying this, but the problem with subsides is that production costs are not static. Unless your country is less than 50 million and producing eleven million barrels of crude a day, meaning that the revenue can pay for refinery maintenance and upgrades, and even pay for subsides and still have some left over, no country, oil producting or otherwise, can sustain subsides.

Atiku's economic advisors would tell him that , if they were honest.
Oga SHUT UP, there is what is called EXECUTIVE ORDER.

As he said he is going to return back the fuel subsidy, he has been gaining momentum,
What if he wins?
Two things will happen:
1. Tinubu will return to Bourdillon and
2. Wike will be sent to Maiduguri medium security prison.

Politics › SUBSIDIES QUESTION: NDC Has Not Ruled Out Revision by Validated(op): 12:10pm On Aug 28
Though Peter Obi mentioned he may not return subsidies at the MBA Conference, I can categorically tell you the the party will revisit the project.
What Tinubu did was to take Obi and Atiku's debate speeches and proclaimed the worst statement in our history without thinking about it.
What the NDC will focus on is the redistribution of the benefits to Nigerian, instead of a few thieves. If it means returning it to cushion the economic effect so be it.

The Opposition should not buy this gambit. In 2022, INEC did the same thing with Osun. They use E-Transmission during that elections at Osun. That false hope fooled the opposition into believing that INEC was transparent. Fast forward to 2023, INEC pulled the carpet on Peter Obi.

Gists9jamedia:
UMUAHIA – Former Speaker of the Abia State House of Assembly and APC House of Representatives candidate for Ikwuano/Umuahia Federal Constituency, Rt. Hon. Chinedum Enyinnaya Orji, has said the recent Osun State governorship election proved that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) can conduct free and fair polls, while President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's transparency reforms are taking hold and redefining Nigerian democracy.


In an article titled "Transparency, Trust, and Transformation: Why INEC's Credibility and Tinubu's Reforms Are Redefining Nigerian Democracy," Orji argued that transparency is the oxygen of true democracy, enabling free elections, economic growth, and citizens' ability to hold leaders to account.
