I do not doubt Buhari's integrity and sincerity, but I may doubt the people around him. If he can, as president, ensure that these people respect the wishes of Nigerians, we are definitely going to enjoy the best administration so far the history of this country

[b] Well,first off Buhari never built any refinery maybe he commissioned one or two but he never was part of any team that conceptualize,initiate and build any refinery at any time whatsoever.Now we have gotten that small humdrum out the way tis better for us to come to an agreement as to the fears of these marketers currently brewing this artificial scarcity,if Buhari will shut down subsidy-ironically, the same motion GEJ sought about to initiate but was opposed by the opposition,the cabals and ordinary naive Nigerians decieved in #Occupy Lagos- will these same marketers get their investments back especially now the dollar is at an all time high? If not, tis businness savvy to start a scarcity and sell your product at quadruple the normal rate so as to get back your capital and profit before the new government settles down. We don't see how the blame is Goodluck's instead we have gullible Nigerians to blame who protested against their freedom and occupied Lagos when Goodluck sought to liberate Nigerians from the shackles of the cabal...Freedom,we had the chance to be free or dum(b) but Nigerians were bambozzled by the opposition and cabal into choosing dum(b).[/b]

But when I found myself as the Minister of Petroleum I set up another refinery in Warri for 100, 000 barrels per day of Nigerian crude and the Kaduna refinery a 100, 000 barrels per day. So Nigeria built capacity to refine 450,000 a day.
Four Hundred thousands of which is purely Nigerian crude, but 50,000 was imported. The type of crude could be Venezuelan, which could be a bit heavier. But the lighter ones - kerosene, aviation fuel, diesel, PMS of different grades could be produced from our crude because Nigerian crude is about the best in the world.

If you could recall, after finishing as Minister of Petroleum, I subsequently became Head of State. You remember, I appointed Professor Tam David West as the Minister of Petroleum. When we rounded up bunkers, collected their illegal jetties and allowed jetties for only big firms which were doing production and development in the country, we were shocked that we had too much fuel.

We had to begin to export 100,000 barrels per day. Don’t forget that we didn’t stop at building refineries, we built more than 20 depots during my time, from Port Harcourt to Ilorin, Makurdi, Suleija, Maiduguri and Kano. More than 3,000 pipelines were laid to connect them. A number of stations were also built to take the trailers off the road, save lives and the infrastructure on the road. It is more economical because each trailer uses fuel.

We did all that in this country and we didn’t borrow any money as far as I know. It’s Nigerian money.

DT: But they argue that the price should not be the same in Lagos and Daura, for example?

Buhari: It has to be the same because it is the Nigerian crude.
But they consider the cost of transportation?
Why didn’t it make any difference when we were around? Why did we build the network of pipelines? Why did we build the network of depots? What can Nigerians benefit from the God-given gift of petroleum? No refinery is built unless there is an in-depth research that there is enough reserve of up to six layers to be produced.
The argument I have heard is that refineries are aged. Mostly, they are performing at less than half of their capacity…?
You can’t defend these corrupt and incompetent people. You can’t defend them. There used to be what they call turn-around-maintenance. You close the refinery in order to overhaul and clean it. What we did: we asked our producers, we need various refined products of this type at this time when the refineries are being cleaned. Take this type of Nigerian crude and bring us the refined products.
What we don’t need, we will calculate and pay you as fees for refining and transportation. If it is more than what the crude can handle, then we take it from the treasury. But you are trying to justify all these frauds by saying the refineries are aged.
Of course, they are actually aged?
They said the refineries are aged. The pipelines are leaking. There is vandalisation. Who ordered the vandalisation?

noblezone:


Buhari, there is no way the price of fuel will be the same across Nigeria except you subsidize it.

jcmaiah:
He will know what subsidy means when he becomes president.

And I doubt it if u have a father..Or you go happy if ur father is addressed like dat?

lawbabs:


I am amazed that with the vast number of youths on this platform, only few are thinkers. And certainly, you are not one of them. Result? Is he the president? Result can only be demanded when he takes control.

You are not different from a foolish boy, who is a cashier at a Supermart in my Neighbourhood. A guy approached him to pay for a few items he picked (the guy is obviously from the north) but there wasnt change after he presented his cash. So he began to mock the buyer. He said, "Your uncle promised us change, after winning the election, he hasnt given us change (cash). Abeg, go buy from somewhere else". I witnessed it and fumed at him. I told him he was an eediot and doesnt even have the slightest understanding of governance except the divisionist agenda that have been forced down his throat over the years. He felt ashamed and i walked away from the supermart.

I say the same to you today. Go and think about your life and how you will make personal changes that will contribute to the greatness of Nigeria.

OrlandoOwoh:
With this analysis and those of Gani Fawehinmi, Tam David-West and Pat Utomi, I can't agree more. The claim by the government that it pays subsidy is a fraud. It is unfortunate some people say subsidy should be removed even if it means selling products at higher prices. Have you asked ourselves the correlation between an election year and subsidy that subsidy increases when there is an election?

We all know there is no "subsidy" in the real sense of what social welfarism stands for, its just a collection of entitled PDP goats having a field day with our depleted yam barn simply because they are above the law..

May 29,pls do and come make person wey sabi and also ready do nation building start work..

5 more days to go..........

PUSH1:
How much does it cost to import fuel?

Now the government is importing and the marketers are making profits. It does not add up. I need more explanation.

Ok, the government pays part of the money so that the cost will not be high?

Increase the salaries instead, Highest we will queue at the government owned station while the big men buy from a private importer. Shikena

Nigeria must be great.
