It also pays over N3m as minimum wage.

Let's have a conversation. Do you think the Nigerian minimum wage reflects market realities compared to the US?

As long as we're ready to pay N3m as minimum wage and have food stamps, energy and agric subsidies with accountable politicians pls give us the same road as US!!

I'm sure most nairalanders will agree it is you who is obsessed with subsidy that you blame the inability of the rain to fall on subsidy.

CORRUPTION is the reason we have so many out-of- school kids despite several back to school programs

Your president just signed NNPC-Retail over to his nephew but that's none of your concern. His son's company just got a sweet N15trillion road without any due process but that's not a problem.
Senators are getting 21m to wipe their corrupt noses while judges just got 300% bogus increase but that does not move you as an issue.
It is to be singing subsidy like a bush baby.
That is how on a thread detailing the failure of the ministry of sports, you blatantly lied that Germany was spending €22bn on sports when their budget is not up to half of a billion euros.
Why do you lie to defend corrupt and incompetent politicians?

descarado:

Give up. They have taken you to the gutters and you have no single reasonable defence except regurgitating nonsense.
The smart ones amongst you guys know when not to bother engaging on threads like this.
Did you see any of them here?

It costs N720 per liter to refine a liter of pms NOW...Not under buhari.

Under Buhari it was probably above N250-500. If not more atimes.

nairalanda1:


Well, it is true that when petrol is sold for a profit, nothing like scarcity and subsidy scams and smuggling exists.

Such things exist in countries that do subsidy.

so who do we blame for this?

I believe that APC should have been voted out this last election (and in fact, APC would have lost the election if not for the division in the opposition)...but if your preferred candidate won, the same thing would have played out.

The problem is years of subsidising fuel have contributed to a massive debt problem for Nigeria. Keeping fuel below its production cost for years has meant years of deficit budgets and more deficit budgets.....meaning as at August 2022, we were spending 90% of our revenue on debt servicing.

A graded removal of fuel subsidy as some were proposing would have still left us in more debt (and tinubu is doing the same thing).

At the end, we should have removed subsidy in 2012. Even earlier.



Ladies and gentlemen, let's give a warm welcome to the god of this world....who made the above comment.



I am indeed so blessed and honored that the god of this world has quoted me again using his alternate monicker. I am very happy.

And it is an industrial nation that exports manufactured goods and services

Your Nigeria does not do that.

Let tinubu develop an industrial economy that exports, then we can talk.

Till then, keep on crying and trying to expose me, but subsidy is not sustainable.

was fuel sold at a lost before?

You really do not understand what this subsidy is and how nations should be governed.

Govt exists primarily to do for the people what the people cannot do for themselves. Otherwise, there's no need surrendering my individual anarchy to the state. This is simply social contract.

Every society, irrespective of how rich or poor they are must subsidize one particular commodity that will make life meaningful for the populace. This can be food, health care, transportation or several facets of life. Even societies like western economies that claim to imbibe the tenets if capitalism still subsidize one thing or the other.

What you produce locally will be cheaper, and what you import might be more exorbitant, hence the need for subsidy.

Nigeria's subsidy is an act of wickedness from the part of our leaders. How on earth do we explain that Nigeria an oil producing state doesn't have a functional refinery

? The subsidy you see is the cost of refining this crude in another country and bringing down to Nigeria. So whr is the subsidy coming from again now dat we can produce locally Tru dangote?

Ojuntana:

Did the US become an industrial economy by removing subsidies? At least you claim to be an intellectual. Tell us how US became an industrialized economy and we'll whisper it to Tinubu
Nigeria was industrialized in the 70s and 80s.
What killed our industries? Was it corruption or subsidy?
