Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has warned that no amount of protests from Nigerians would stop his administration from removing fuel subsidy if elected.

He frowned at a situation the Federal Government would be subsidising fuel consumption in neighbouring Africa like Cameroon, Niger, and Benin Republic.

In a statement by Tunde Rahman, Tinubu Media Office, after a business luncheon with business owners entitled: “Business Forward” in Lagos, the APC candidate promised to turn Nigeria’s present challenges into opportunities for growth and development.

He also promised to work towards creating a better security in the country to give them an enabling environment to do their businesses.

The APC candidate said since it was the responsibility of government to secure lives and properties of citizens, his administration, if elected, would make that its priority, the same way he did as Lagos State governor.

Addressing the issue of fuel subsidy and what he intends to do as president, he promised to take bold decisions that would turn the economy around and one of such will be a firm decision on fuel subsidy, stressing that Nigeria will not continue to subsidise fuel consumption in neighbouring countries.

“How can we be subsidising fuel consumption of Cameroon, of Niger, of Benin Republic. No matter how long you protest, we are going to remove subsidy,” he emphatically stated.

On Security he said, “first, the primary responsibility of government is to protect the lives, properties, and prosperity of its citizens. As Governor of Lagos, fixing the difficult security situation I inherited was the first item on my list.

“Only after we secured the state and changed its reputation for the better, could we embark on the economic reforms that have ultimately produced the vibrant and active megacity of today.

“I am committed to securing Nigerians from violence and the fear of such violence. Terror, kidnapping and banditry have no place in the society I envision. Upon entering office, we will move to implement several measures:

“We will increase the numbers of our military and non-military security forces. Specialist anti-terrorist battalions with integrated special forces units shall also be established.

“Our Critical National Infrastructure Protection Plan will deploy aerial and ground surveillance technology to surveil the most dangerous areas and secure our country’s vital national infrastructure and installations.

“We shall acquire and upgrade the tactical communications and mobility of our troops and security personnel. We must also devote greater attention to the care and welfare of our military and security forces who put themselves in harm’s way to keep us safe.

“In sum, our objective is to be able to outmaneuver, outwit and outflank the terrorists and criminal groups. They want to defeat our democratic and good society. We shall defeat their evil one. We did it in Lagos with the RRS scheme. We can do it again for Nigeria. As we fight insecurity, we must deal with our economy at the same time. We know that business and insecurity cannot thrive side by side,” he noted.

Sensational headline.

I hope moderators don't fall for this

It’d be unreasonable for anyone to protest again fuel subsidy now.

Fuel subsidy must go for the greater good to come.

How many of your brother were slaughtered by him

But,in 2015 emilokan and buhari said they did not know what is subsidy, criminal tinubu
Is after national treasury to loot Nigeria dry.
Tinubu will be disgraced at the poll next year.

HomoSapiien:

Fuel subsidy must go for the greater good to come.

Yes but incentives must be put in place for the poor and the disadvantaged

Ok

No deceit, no pretence whatsoever. Only the best way to conduct the affairs of government. Glad that it shall end in prosperity. Meanwhile, cursed be the man or woman who shall come to derail this happy thread with slander, unbelief, resort to better forgotten past, and sundry denigration. Nigeria MUST be made great again - not by outbursts of the emotions, clannishness or death-wish for our rivals so that our Candidate can have an easy ride to the Villa.

Subsidy that would have become history by now, you and your minions shut down the whole country saying subsidy was a scam. 10 years later you are now claiming you will remove the same subsidy.

One thing about Nigerians is that they find it very hard to accept the truth especially when it doesn’t suit them

They want someone who will lie to them later n shenk them with reality when the going gets tough

Where is the 65 naira per litre buhari promised them?

Where is the heaven buhari promised them?

But here is someone saying it as it is but they want sweet lies

Irrespective of whoever becomes president subsidy will b removed, that’s just d bitter truth we have to tell ourselves

Ibos in sifia pain. They cannot build strategic alliances but are used to wasting their votes. Their mumu never do.

Hmmm

Hmm

Hypocrite, yet you bullied Jonathan with protests for the same thing, that one is your own opinion sha.

Nigerians have chosen Peter Obi to handle the matter, so Baba don't bother yourself

Baba druggie is confused,no be him and him team pack full ojota protest against the same subsidy removal

Phool

When he enter now, he won't remove it

Don't worry you will not win

Red flags everywhere but some people remain blinded by tribal sentiments.
I am against fuel subsidy but saying he would remove it despite Nigerians protest is nothing short of dictatorial.
I mean, what else is he going to do without taking into consideration the opinions and plight of ordinary Nigerians.
Brace up people, a dictator is coming (heaven forbid)

On Monday 2, 2012, Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu and his minions led a protest christened Occupy Nigeria against the removal of subsidy by then President Goodluck Jonathan.

Then, fuel was to cost 140 naira per litre as a result of the subsidy removal. And the government in power then introduced what it called Subsidy Reinvestment Programme (SURE-P). The program was going to ensure the rolling out of govt sponsored transport vehicles that run cheaper than others. Another thing the program was to do was to introduce a scheme that would empower youths with startup capital (not 5k chewing gum money) through a merit pool. But the protest scuttled this wonderful policy and ensured that we will continue with the evil of subsidy until a later date when we will still bear the brunt.

Peter obi for president

Only Sit at home children are grumbling and it's understandable bcs they are the major oil theft ND smuggler
.

I trust Jagaban that he will find other means to alleviate poverty if do away with oil subsidy

Agbado master imposing suffering on Agbodorians

APC will always be APC. Tinubu will not be different from Buhari if he wins.

Nigerians should start tightening their belt in case he becomes the president.
