Politics / Re: Petrol: Marketers Fault Subsidy Removal Process As Queues Return by zikter(m): 3:36pm On Oct 06, 2023 |
Paraman: Why are you asking me this kind of senseless question? The NNPCL have been importing petrol into Nigeria and they are not complaining. I wander why the marketers should be complaining on their behalf. Why are talking like this? Ask yourself this question, do the marketers have access to dollars like NNPCL you are comparing them to? Who is even agreeing to borrow them money for business. Again, with the rising price of crude oil and free falling naira, even the NNPCL is been subsidized, otherwise there is no way petrol will go for the current prices. So assuming you try hard to import and land the product at 720, will you go and sell at 617? Meanwhile your competitor is whose product is subsidized is selling at cheaper rate. Who now will buy your own? Let us say the truth, subsidy removal is good but the process was poorly managed. I agree with this article 100% 3 Likes |

Racoon: Just look @ the ratio or improper fraction of the levels of child illiteracy between the 2 regions and know where the problem & bane of Nigeria's development is coming from. A country where illiterates are politically forced on a nation in connivance with some eternally cursed southern stooges I don't think the leaders you are referring to are illiterate by any measure. Check their bios and you will discover that they are very well educated both home and abroad and well exposed. They may even be more educated and exposed than you speaking. Their bad leadership has nothing to do with their education. Let us just say they are educated but bad leaders.

Igboslayer: Best way to remove subsidy is in phases. Remove certain percentage quarterly and use the money gained for all to see. Removing all at once is like drowning a child because you want him to own a swimming pool. He may not live to swim in it This is the only reasonable approach. While doing this, deal with the corrupt people assumed to be benefitting the subsidy, ensure local refining as well. Fuel price should have moved from 185 to say 220 per liter first. 1 Like 1 Share |

9jatriot: Hmmm, would this not give victory to the so called cabal who need us to continue the regime of subsidy.
Is it possible they are the ones fighting back and fighting dirty? Many of the things you have suggested look like things we have been trying since God knows when. Take the issue of repairing the refineries. Remember Kachukwu (former minister of petroleum) staked his reputation then that the refinery under his watch will start working in 2 years also.
With all news coming from CBN, can we really afford to continue with trying to defend the naira? As a matter of fact, if we even get the dollar component right, the subsidy removal will resolve itself. If the dollar takes a consistent value for about 1 year, then industries can plan better but when today it is 800, tomorrow it jumps straight to 850 and now even 805 then all the permutations goes out of the window.
For me, it is the dollar part that worries me the most.
Who are this cabal that are so much above the entire government of Nigeria? This is where the real issue is. With all the criminal corruption the cabal are accused of, we haven't seen one member of the cabal arrested and prosecuted. All we hear us cabal cabal. What sort of nonsense is this? 1 Like |

Right from when you belittled the OP's list of cars. For starters, OP was talking about fuel economy and not speed, you bringing in the issue of speed which is directly related to the engine size of car was not necessary. If the discussion was about speed, OP wouldn't be talking about fuel economy. Then, you belittling the cars he mentioned as poor men cars was totally uncalled for.

I know you lots are not happy with this news hence trying to derail from the main topic of discussion Please be informed. The current increase is not due to lack of product but market forces as nnpc said. Do you expect an importer who spend, say 500 on a litre to turn around and start selling at 480?

Na lie o....no matter how structured a company is, there are some things you will do & no one will have time to give you queries and warnings. It's OUTRIGHT sack! not this type of offence. And there is nothing like lie about what I said. Each employee has a handbook and company policy where procedures are clearly spelt out including separate chapters on disciplinary measures. The company knows too well they have to follow those steps religiously to avoid legal fireworks. |

BABAawoo47: telling someone to go home shows the workplace is not structured...There's something called query and there are due process to firing someone especially if the person is sent an official letter. No one working for reputable Coys will try this because of threats of law suits.... So i guess the company isn't a well structured one that's why she acted that way Correctly said, the place is most likely a one man show or without structure. Where I work, for you to sack someone takes a whole lot processes, query, first warning, second warning before sack is considered.
