of course they will support, to be honest there wont be any strike.


i really want to be enlighten
they keep saying removal of subsidy but the vice president says there is no such thing but the hike in PMS is because there is no enough fund in the circulation at the moment.

What is the real situation?

my dear don't misquote or mix things around, there is no time the VP says subsidy wasn't removed, he only said the removal was not occasioned by the need to remove subsidy, but that it was necessitated cos there was no enough to fund the subsidy thus the gov't had no choice than to remove it. Please go and read his staments and digest it pls.

Even though I don't pay for transportation, what happens to other struggling citizens?

PMB, get sense na...

Even if it is 120, just reduce the nonsense price of PMS..

I wanted to tell you where your brain is so that you can locate it, but I remember that you are a bush boy residing in a primitive hamlet. Subsidy's discussion is beyond your mental horizon: stay clear.

Your hero borrowed to pay FG workers to pay salaries till the end of his tenure despite partial removal coupled with the fact that PMS price was over $120 at Oil Market: now, the PMS price is not even up to half of what it was as at then: what moral justification do you have to insult PMB?

I wonder where you were throughout the last 16 years of PDP's ruling.

Yes. The Federal Government should find a way to sustain / better the lives of people.

We all know that Buhari alone cant fix this country overnight, the man (Buhari) is trying is best, but Nigerians needs to be sustained.

And the stupid NLC and TUC should call off the already planned strike that yield nothing but more pain to Nigeria's Economy.

Instead of them to be protesting for the increment of minimum wage from N18K to N90k, they are beating around the bush, they know what should be done, but what they will steal and cheap bribes wont let them see it.

God will help us.


Thanks bro. Their protest should be on increment in minimum wage

The VP actually meant removal of subsidy. Vanguard wrote the news in a way that will confuse the people. You apparently only read the headline. The body of the news was in no way in coherence with the heading.

I praise d senate this time around.Good job

MrTruth4real:

The real problem is unavailability of forex to import PMS, what the govt should do is devalue the naira, and make forex available until the modular refineries and dangote refinery is completed, then we can stop importing fuel.
d CBN cannot provide forex for them, we don't have enough
.
Re: Senate Backs Subsidy Removal by Ubenedictus(m): 7:20pm On May 17, 2016
MrTruth4real:

I tink is better if they devalue the naira and make forex available for importers, Rather than tell them to go and look for forex elsewhere (black market). The 145pl was derive from 280naira to the dollar, and parallel rate is about 340, so if these importers so go to black market to get dollars, we should be expecting fuel at about 200pl. The govt have no choice than to devalue and remove subsidy too.
even if we devalue it we still won't have enough forex. devaluation does not. help us

At least, it will help us a little, if the oil marketers are getting forex from black market and CBN together, rather than getting from black market alone, even black market can provide enough forex for all fuel importers. The govt just need to devalue our naira.

Ya, but devaluing the naira will make the gap between official and parallel rate.
Re: Senate Backs Subsidy Removal by udeh3(m): 9:25pm On May 17, 2016
From my on understanding of this whole issue is that "fuel price have been hike by the federal government due to inability to access forest." It is different from removing of fuel subsidy. The govt have not remove fuel subsidy. Payment of subsidy is still in the just approved budget.

What I see here is a govt that is not sincere... The minister of information saying a word, the minister of petrol. for state says another and finally the vice president says different things. Our president, have not even come out to address the nation, even the National Houss of Assembly are confuse.

Am not surprise to hear that few states have embark on this industrial action that supposed to start tomorrow.

We know them for that!
They like violence!
They hate this government!
They approach and embrace crisis or war!
