It always has been, that's why NNPC is owing sellers lots of money now.



So, by extension, government should set prices for your business....and you lose money, so that they can help the poor.

O ma se o.




We tried subsidisng food, and it led to long queues, and scarcity. Back under Buhari army
We subsidsie health, and that's why we have shitty hospitals, because they cannot earn enough to run very well. Also, why many people run abroad for care
We subsidise education, that is why our unis looks backward and our hostels are shitholes.
And subsides are paid for out of taxes....which in Nigeria are very low .





Problem is, that mentaily is why NNPC Is owing 6 billion dollars now, and why we have poor investment in domestic refining, apart from Dangote.




Because when we had refineries, the government sold fuel, diesel, and kero at a loss from them, and skipped TAM to keep subsidy costs low. And massively subsidised their transport.

Result...refineries could not make a profit to run themselves , and they broke down

Plus our revenue from oil cannot pay for subsides...unless we were producing at least ten times what we produce now, and oil remained above 130 per barrel.




Simple...the other parts of your budget....which brings about a deficit, which is filled in by loans.

We have been doing that for decades, which is why we have problems with debt, among other things.
pls what course did you study in the university? Cos your understanding of the working of a state and how social infrastructures should be manged leaves me with much questioning. So, since 1960 till date Nigeria has not been making profit from crude oil sales, and moreso, our refineries died because of govt subsidy? Your argument is very very flawed.

Stay humble my friend.
For you won't be here one day.
And although you think you might have left a legacy,
In due time it too will fade with you.
You want to be remembered as someone who
Was kind.
Loving.

Respectful.
Helpful.
Friendly.
And above all humble.
So take the compliments nicely.
Try to always be kind.
And try to be forgiving.
Although I know it can sometimes be hard.
Help others.
Stand up for one another.

Because those are the true legacies that impact lives.
Not just some material thing that will fade faster than you think.

If you knew anything about the bold you would not go about supporting policies which are killing people. And which have a record of inflicting nothing but poverty and death everywhere and everytime they have been implemented anywhere.

I'm more concerned at how you pull out things just from anywhr without first understanding how this things work.

This is not about Tinubu now. We are going broader into discussing how a state and people should be governed. If you understand what democracy is, militocracy, socialism, communism, communalism, capitalism et al is in even the lowest forms, you won't be talking the way you do. Try understand this simple political and economic terminologies, they will help alot in your argument.

Not even American capitalisists can comfortably jettison social intervention in a society in the manner you're doing.

Show where I ever lied to defend APC

Yours is well known

You lied to defend the ministry of sports when they were called out for their incompetence in providing a bike for an Olympics cyclist and were borrowing from Germany

You lied that the reason they couldn't provide the bike was because Nigerian sports budget is less than N20bn while the German sports budget is €22bn.

Meanwhile German sports budget is just €293m

Why did you feel such compulsion to lie?

Corn eh 🌽

Well, subsidy isn't sustainable
but building VP residence with billions, buying first lady convoy with 2bn, expending 90bn on hajj etc., is sustainable right?


Try learn and understand what govt is.

And it has failed again
