There's nothing to wonder about. There's a curfew and they simply decided to flout the order.

i feel disgusted with the way people  reason at times. Are you justifying the killings of unarmed and perhaps innocent civilians  simply because they flout a curfew. Common! Would your opinionr  about the killings be the same if those killed by security forces are members of your family or your relatives. Please be thorough and logical in your arguement.

If my family member becomes so silly as to impede the fight against Islamic terrorism, they deserve whatever they get.

Diezene Madueke said that she could not act on KPMG report because it has not been officially transmitted to her but he confessed to have one unofficially.
And she can't officially request for it?
SEE THE FACE OF A CORRUPT MINISTER.

Lets be realistic, the bitter truth is that it wont be easy for the federal government to reverse to 65 naira
because there was no provision in 2012 budget for fuel subsidy and i dont see government presenting supplementay budget for that.
when Goodluck presented 2012 budget to the national assembly i exepected Nigerians expecially the
Labour to raise alarm over the missing of such provision but everybody overlook that, rather threatening to make Nigeria ungovernable.
Does it make sense for labour to tell someone who just returned from his village after xmas and new year celebration to stay at home all in the name of protest,what would he eat by staying at home INDEFINITELY.
In this issue, is labour ''remedy'' not as bad as the sickness ''fuel price increment''?

efisher:

The way people have been screaming against removal of subsidy, you will think people will just fall and die instantly. Agreed prices will generally rise up but over time, they should stabilize at certain bearable rates.

The issue of rising prices in transportation is mostly one of greed on the part of transporters. Let's look closely at this: Before subsidy removal, an 18 seater bus may require N5000 fuel per trip from PH to Lagos carrying 18 passengers. Each passenger pays say N2000. Post subsidy, fuel cost is 217% more ie say: N10,850. Now, the increase is, N5,850. Spreas N5850 amongst 18 passengers and what you get per head is just about N325! So transport cost per head should be N2,325. Even if you want to factor in other things due to "general inflation", transport per head coud be say N2,500. But no! The transporters want to rip everyone off and demand the whole 217% increase per head giving N4,340
. WHY? We just want to take advantage of every situation and plunder ourselves.

In all, as time goes on when the euphoria of the new price fizzles out, things will stabilize. Meanwhile, I advise we focus our protests towards the real issues:

1. Swift passage of PIB
2. Reduction in size and cost of governance
3. Corruption
4. Resource control (Every region has huge resources that should be developed strategically and not plundered unreasonably)
Etc!
