In my own opinion, their is no winner or loser if the price of fuel is returned to 65. But we should be ready to return to the era of fuel scarcity as govt will want to reduce the rate of import of the product, most of the marketers will loose their right to import the product which were given to them to ease fuel scarcity (least we have forgotten) then. In addition to these, marketers will now form the habit of hoarding and reckless pricing of the product in view that the subsidy will certainly be removed at a certain date. Therefore, be ready to queue to get your petrol. 1 Like |

If we really have a working government, there won't be scarcity when the price is N65. The only thing I see is that the government is not sincere. |

The NASS members and govt officials will go back to their normal embezzlement business, marketers will hoard fuel in anticipation of April subsidy removal. The #occupyNigeria movement will then amount to nothing but a conservative, retrogressive hullabaloo if we fail to enthrone transparency in govt. |

Fellow Nigerians, How long will the statement which was made by elites against us as being "A Bunch Of Cowards" be affirmed? This is very annoying, we are just in day 5 of the struggle and some agent of destruction, who for d fact that dey can afford to buy PMS @ N141 even up to N200, are already complaining of boredom at home. Listen carefully, this is a fight we must win - There is NO GOING back. Do you know that the Egyptian sacrificed so much before the oppressors succumb? Do you think it happened on a bed of Roses? Gentle men, if you are bored, choose from the different options below:- 1) You can trek to Ojota (Gani Fawehinmi Freedom Square) and join us. 2) You can sit in d comfort of ur homes and watch us live and keep re broadcasting any message associated with d on-going strike. *beer* 3) You can jog or take a stroll with your immediate environ or keep fulfilling the commandment of God - be fruitful and multiply(If u r married). These are "kuku" one form of exercise or d other./ ![]() 4) You can take cyprigold/cypron/super appette and sleep off till March. If u r still bored 3-| 5) Finally you can trek to Cotonou - Benin Republic and denounce Nigeria. Its high-time Nigeria let go of cowards like you, who for d enjoyment of today's pourage - sold not only his birth right but also his conscience! >:O#gbam#>:O. This message is to strengthen and encourage loyal Nigerians like us and to talk some sense into weak and lazy Nigerians like those who won't forward dis mssg! It's NOW or NEVER!! |

@lastpage, i left that tread immediately I posted my comment. From all you have said, we are on the same side. Moreover, i always tell people that what we actually needed is not subsidy removal more for a total overhaul of our system. Look at all that you have highlighted, are they the fault of the masses? No, but the fault of our leaders both past and present, look at the zero level we are now with noting to show that we are really developing. 1 Like |

surely you know this protest isnt all about subsidy. I wont preach again on info you can find online bt the presentt Government is wasteful and if they really cared about the country they governed, subsidy funds (which analyst have proven to never exist and affect the 'masses') would have been deducted from government salary/bonuses before creating this chaos for 9igerians. Be that as it may, we are fighting for transparency in this government, and possible resignation of Ministers who have proven to not know shit about the Govt parastatals they head. EOD ps check this new blog i stumbled on, http://cyphersdot..com kinda hilarious. Pls support our fellow budding Nigerian brother. Cheers |

The same. That's why I do not support the protest, it has no positive outcome. If fuel removal is revised, what then? Everything will go back to the way it was. The same corruption, embezzlement, Boko Haram, Poverty, etc will continue; the unfortunate reality is the protest is going the opposite way: it is affecting an average working Nigerian as oppose to the government, whom I know they are trying to hurt. |

i do not see any good coming out of this. though its painful for many people cos of the subsidy removal but you cannot expect the fuel diverters to go to sleep now that they know the subsidy will be removed very soon. this matter is like a yoruba adage: ki won so si eniyan lenu ki won tu bu iyo si, iso ni ko se ponla, iyo ni ko se tu sonu ; meaning dem mess inside your mouth at same time put something sweet in the same mouth, you no fit swallow mess at same time you no fit spit out the sweet thing. i feel sorry for GEJ cos he came to power at this "unfortunate" time in our history. all our past leaders were concerned amassing wealth for themselves at the expense of the country, now we are in a dilemma but we cannot and will not stop praying cos there is still hope for us. may God grant him wisdom to make the right decision and steer 9ja in the right path amen. |

seunlayi: they cannot negotiate that with the govt. Anyone that owns a filling station right now, including the marketers importing will buy at 65 and hoard fuel till april when the subsidy is removed. govt cannot force them to sell. its a free market. |

*Their will be fuel scarcity. All our neighbouring countries sale their fuel at the rate of N170+ which is over 100% gain if the dealers succeed in taking our oil there. they will not like to sell it in Nig. This is business. *govt will not have the zeal to create more job because the poor masses have failed them. *Every thing will remain stagnant as it were b4, if u can remember their has been no job 4 our our youth not to talk of the youth-to-be. The security of our border will be weak cos of corrupt transactions by the fuel dealer around the border. Once their is fuel scarcity the Price of fuel will increase may be to N80. (an average man will say afterall it is better than N140 but then we loose our employment govt promised our children). *Their will not be private investors This is a game of monopoly The conspiracy of the rich. So, before you act think twice. If am to fight I will fight for my children cos they are to take care of me when am old. LET US COME OUT OF THIS RAT RACE. A little SACRIFICE |

A little SACRIFICE You are absolutely correct. Past Governments have looted Nigeria blind without caring a hoot about Nigerians and the left over effect (absolute poverty of the mind, body and soul) have affected most Nigerians that they cannot even reason at all. It is a pity Nigerians have failed this govt. President Jonathan came at the most unfortunate time in our history and if Nigerians make him fail then we should forget about this country called Nigerians. Those shouting revolution I just pity them, by the time it starts they will wish they were never born. |

Lest I forget, if there is a reversal to N65. There will definitely be fuel scarcity because Jonathan is now once badly beaten forever shy. Many import licenses will be revoked and the volume of pms to be subsidised will be drastically reduced. NLC/TUC just shot Nigerians in the foot. For your info no govt even from Abacha was able to stop fuel scarcity. But, Jonathan stopped it and the marketers paid him back by stabbing him on the back. Nigerians has forgotten so soon that they never experienced fuel scarcity during this regime (first time in more than 15 years).It is unfortunate that we forget things easily in this country. Everybody, goats, fowls, fools, idiots, failed politicians are all insulting him, forgetting the fact that it is the 36 State Governors that initiated the fuel subsidy removal in the first place only to back away when the heat blew up. Why blame and even insulting GEJ alone? Why the occupy carnival @ Ojota, when the ideal centre for occupy Lagos is supposed to be Lekki Toll Gate? How come those artiste pay toll (to and fro)at Lekki and come to Ojota carnival to insult GEJ? Why these gross hypocrisy? I do not fancy Jonathan at this trying times, but my prayers are for him daily and I know he will succeed. My only happiness is that he now knows his friends. IF WE DO NOT SUCCEED AS NIGERIA, WE WILL SUCCEED AS THE HARDWORKING PEOPLE OF SS, SE AND MB |
