Before we all get carried away with the media propaganda, here are the summary of Tinubu's government to date: 1. Fuel subsidy is removed and you will buy fuel for 500 to 900naira per liter (depending on the exchange rate). The savings will be looted like that of kerosene and diesel. There will be no commensurate succor/ palliative for your suffering. Instead of going after the subsidy thieves and stopping the smuggling across boarders, they have transferred the responsibility to the helpless Nigerian people. 2. Naira has been devalued (though they call it floating). The FG has handed over the exchange to the market forces where speculators and banks are king. Naira continues to fall in the I/E and parallel market. Anybody who tells you Naira will appreciate is a joker, for a corrupt country like ours, the banks and speculators are the new cabal and will drive the rates how they deem fit. Don’t believe…. Just observe. What most don’t get now is that CBN now has no obligation to provide FX at a particular rate to the market, as such the new FG players can access FX from CBN without noise. 3. FG funding for tertiary education has been removed. Students will pay upwards of 400K tuition fee starting next session. A lot of students will drop out and cannot complete their education anymore. The so-called student loan will be almost impossible for an average student without connection to access. Guess what happens to the savings from this funding…. To be looted by the same people who have impoverished the nation. 4. Electricity tariff have been increased (without increased production) and will take effect from July 1st. This is a death knell to small and medium scale businesses. You are now stuck between the devil (PMS at 550naira per liter) and the blue sea (extra expensive electricity tariff). 5. All the FG has done so far is abandon almost all responsibilities it has over the people through the bills being signed since May 29. All Tinubu has done is to make available funds to be shared by him and his goons at the expense of the people. Not a single bill or action aimed at ameliorating the suffering of the already downcast Nigerian people rather adding to the pain in the guise of elitist policies 6. Guess what…. None of these policies have any impact on the political class and they have not made a single sacrifice. Same old political criminals are back in power, Gbaja, Akume, Asari Dokubo etc and you expect any real change apart from increased suffering?. How do you expect Tinubu to pay back the these same criminals who supported him into power? Nigerians…. Suffer no dey tire una? 503 Likes 72 Shares |

Just imagine how selfish these ediots are. You come in and the first thing is to remove all subsidies enjoyed by the masses. They claim they are removing subsidy on petrol because it was being smuggled to neighboring countries. What is the excuse for the removal of subsidy on electricity and education. Next they will target is Healthcare anonymous1759: You people will just sit in your houses and try to sell the useless propaganda the govt sells you. Countries subsidize education, Healthcare, agriculture and energy because these are the sectors that drives the economy.Try to use Google which is free 100 Likes 10 Shares |

Another Anti-people policy.... Is Tinubu's aim to increase the 133m below poverty threshold or the over 10m out of school children?.. how would this policy not increase the over 80% unemployment and underemployment data in Nigeria...

Control that which you can control. You really are not helpless. Only use low energy 5watt or not more than 10 watt bulbs. When you buy fridges and /or freezer check for low energy usage or those with inverter. Same for AC. Be intentional about everything you do and you will see that things are manageable. There is a lot of wastage in the use of electricity. 22 Likes 2 Shares |

People wey vote Tinubu go hear am. First, fuel subsidy removal without palliative, then student loan scam, then removal of university tuition fees, then devaluation of fx rate. I just feel for the millions of Nigerians that this drug baron forced himself on by rigging the election. One week was even too short to prove what we have been saying all this while - Tinubu has nothing to offer. Meanwhile, what happened to the 800 million dollars fuel subsidy palliative that Buhari got before he left? 56 Likes 5 Shares |

How you want us to pay for something that is not available is what is still giving me headache. You cannot provide it,yet the little wey dey ground you want to do an increase. Why don't you fix that first and make the increase? People will pay joyfully. I keep on referring to the telecommunications industry. The infrastructure was on ground. People paid through their noses to get a GSM line because they wanted to talk and they were able to talk not that after spending a fortune to get a line they still couldn't talk. No,It was easy to talk because it wasn't a case of putting the cart before the horse. We told you the Tinubu administration will be that of tears and sorrow economically for Nigerians,some people say I should not say otherwise. By the time he is done taxing Nigerians you won't even be able to have an erection because cost of things would have even spoilt your erection Shey eni ori yin o pe ni Eyin osinwin eniyan radarada 36 Likes 2 Shares |
