Politics / Re: The True "beneficiaries" Of Subsidy Revealed by benlay(m): 3:34pm On Dec 08, 2011 |
It's so pathetic when some folks come here and post what they do not know, fuel/gas is a natural resources and Nigeria is one of the few countires that is blessed with it. The subsidy came in place when 'government' put people in place to sabotage the refineries so we could start/keep importing fuels to the country. I will give you an instance -Libya (one of OPEC members) Petrol is very cheap in Libya, which compensates for all the above costs: one of the cheapest in the world. Some tourists find it "bizarre" that alcohol-free beer costs 5 Libyan dinars, when 10 litres of petrol cost 2 Libyan dinars. As in any other country, imported goods are generally more expensive than goods produced locally. Petrol : 20p a litre (0.20 LYD). Diesel : 15p a litre (0.15 LYD). Update: (March 2011): Libya has slashed petrol prices in Libya by 25%. The price of one litre of petrol is now 15 pence, down by 5 pence from 20 pence. http://www.temehu.com/Prices.htm Based on the above, 100 pence make one GBP,so 15 pence is about N37.50, a litre of petrol is sold for less that N40 in Libya, people what are we saying? GEJ has been talking, i understand, he did not start the problem but if he wants to solve it, removing the subsidy is not the first thing to do, we should have more refineries in place and get the old ones working then no one should even be talking about subsidy in the first place. May God punish all these people that drove us and left us at the juncture. |

Sports / Re: CAF U23 Tourney: Nigeria Vs Senegal (1 - 2) On 29th November 2011 by benlay(m): 11:53pm On Nov 29, 2011 |
Senegal struck twice in the first half and hung on for a 2-1 win over Nigeria during a group A encounter on Tuesday n night in Tangiers. The match started off at a sluggish pace as the teams were slow out of the blocks and played at an almost pedestrian pace. The monotony broken in 34th minute by a Kara Mbodji’s looping header from a delivery on the left flank. There was much between the two sides at that stage although the lanky Khaliloulah Seck had started controlling the midfield threading threatening balls to the flanks. The goal allowed the Senegalese to settle into a rhythm and they were lively and rattled the Nigerians. Long balls played into the Senegalese box intended for the Nigerian forwards were cut off by the taller defenders. In the 42nd minute Abdoulaye Sane went on a mazy run and his shot on target was blocked but fortunately bounced back to him to side foot past Muniru Ajiboye at his near post for Senegal’s second goal. A shell-shocked Nigeria upped their game and went close with header from Gbolahan Salami. There had been not much in the way of quality before the goals but second half brought about better football. Stephane Badji let go a powerful volley but Ajiboye acrobatically tipped it away for a corner. A few minutes after that Nigeria strung some neat passes venturing into Senegal penalty box but the final shot sailed wide. In the 49th minute a through ball played towards Senegalese goal brought about a chase and Daniel Uchechi managed to push the ball underneath goalkeeper Ousmane Mane as he rushed out. It was the Nigerians in ascendancy and they peppered the opposition’s goal looking for the equalizer with Kayode Orlarenwaju and substitute Marshal Odah probing from the wings. One such move had saw Salami break through into the box but took the wrong option when he went for goal instead of setting up his fellow waiting strikers. At the other end Badji ‘s pace and power was troubling Ewoma Ojobo and in the 68th minute he almost increased his team’s lead with a hard shot that was tipped on to the cross bar by Ajiboye and it bounced back into play. The lively pattern of the second half continued with both sides really going for it, keeping the two goal-minders busy. As the legs got tired both sides missed glaring opportunities with substitute Romeric Lopy side footing straight into Ajiboye’s hands from a few meters out and at the other end a miss-controlled effort from Salami allowed the ball past the upright as he tried to divert it into goal. The brave effort by the two teams to get more goals ran out of time and at the final whistle it was Senegal celebrating after picking up their first three points with a game against Morocco’ still to come and Nigeria now plays Algeria in their final group game on Friday 2nd December in Marrakech. http://www.cafonline.com/competition/caf-u-23-championship_2011/news/12163-senegal-beat-nigeria-to-claim-first-win.html |
Education / Re: No Going Back On New LASU Tuition Fee – Fashola by benlay(m): 12:04pm On Nov 26, 2011 |
Fashola would not have been able to go to a University if all schools charge the same amount Law students will have to pay now in LASU, it's a shame. I see poverty raging more and more if this system is sustained. Nigerians should learn to vote for 'the person' rather than 'the party'. |

It you find yourself in darkness, there is no way you would be able to see, he was in darkness, he could not see, some people locked him inside the dark room and kept the key, it's so pathetic that such people kill others when they choose to die. When my people say 'may God deliver us from darkness', this is one example, ignorance and stupidity. |

Crime / Re: 5 Igbo traders Killed For Failing To Recite Qu'ran by benlay(m): 9:10pm On Sep 24, 2011 |
We've been told that there would be no country called Nigeria by 2015 now i believe that, there is no more basis for us to still live as one country. PERIOD! People of 'completely' different believes, culture & tradition, and religion can NEVER live together as one country. We continue to push it, tie it, mend it, now it's obvious it's 'unfixable', so pathetic. One region that contributes 0% to the treasury benefits more that other regions from the treasury, it does not work like that. Do people still write 'Long Live Nigeria' these days? |
