What really is your opinion for me this subsidy is really a torn on my flesh.
its a good initiative but bad timing...
Gud thinking,Gud timing but many are ignorant of the whole subsidy issue cos communication wahala..
Initially I was vehemently opposed to the fuel subsidy removal. But later I awoken my economic sense and letting out the initial suspicious emotional outburst. The fuel subsidy is a bitter pill for us Nigerian to swallow but promising soothing effects on the economy. Yes, the timing is bad but there can never be a good time in Nigeria. Since we have taken the steps, it best we Nigerian pray and support the Government for a better Nigeria for all us.
Gud idea, bad timing n lack of trust cos of d past experiences.
wats d benefit.we nid 2 cut down on honourables allowances and expenses 2.he knows d corrupt kabals and yet they r nt behind d bars nw they wnt 2 turn our country 2 paradise wit fuel subsidy money unda 6months wat a joke.wat is our govt doing 4 us.i tink he shld remove d corruption nt d subsidy n wen d time n oda facilities r there then he cn kip his subsidy.
I took time to assess this subsidy removal and came to a conclusion that: IT'S A WRONG DECISION. What the govt should do now is to REVERSE the pump price to N65 so as to avert the impending doom on the country.
Subsidy removal has caused untold hardship on Nigerians. Skyrocketed transport fares, increased food/commodity prices, even pure water now N10. And we all know the poverty level of the country, people can no longer afford basic needs. Consequently, they are crying to the govt to reverse the price. The govt have to be a LISTENING govt.
To me, i will say the President is confused at present. The palliative measures is bringing now are late already. He ought to have introduced them before this period. Also, he must know Nigerians are following things up with him critically, there are some guys that contributed to his election and fully engage in importation of fuel. He must first cut off with & expose them, reduce cabinet members salary by 50% (and not 25% as earlier announced which is too meagre), and roll up his sleeves with strong determination to govern very well.
am in support of the fuel subsidy removal, hard times need hard decision. Again govt should cut down unneccesary expenditure and allowances. Give licence to other marketer and above all FIX NNPC for once. Shalom
as far am concern our main problem is CORRUPTION and not fuel subsidy even if they recover billion of dollars nothing will still happen. What happened to the foreign reserve account?
The removal of fuel subsidy sounds good but we cannot rely on their promise until corruption is dealt with. Mr President promised to bring down the prices of Cement, Kerosine and even made himself the minister of Power at some point yet nothing good has happened. He has not achieved anything tangible since he assumed office.I refuse the removal of Fuel Subsidy because we have not tackled corruption. The Governors and Local Government Chairmen will enrich themselves, their Families and girlfriends with subsidy money as usual.

I wonder how Mr. president mood would be like by now. This is misinformation and confusion to the last order. "Book intelligent is not Native intelligent". You can't give what you don't have! Jerry Rawlings and Nelson Mandela made Ghana and South Africa what they are respectively today . As an individual, am not against removal of fuel subsidy but the person removing it. His policies and actions since assumption of office have been questionable. Though am not disappointed, because, I know from abi nitio that he will disappoint Nigerians. I have no shoe to wear should have been a benchmark for him to perform but decided to feed with 3 million naira in a month. With the blood of those that lost their lives during and after presidential election matters; the blood of the boy playing football on the street shot by a police CSP during fuel subsidy removal protest by organised labour; cry and curse by old men and women that stood under the sun for hours to cast their votes, I ask if this government would make a progress? I said this to mr. President on assumption of office: staying inside Aso Rock and working with everything therein, will not give the true situation of Nigeria and Nigerians at all time. Now see! Am ready to help out when call upon! I pray that the situation will not stop your blessing from now to March, 2012. Amen!

PLEASE what will be the benefit of fuel subsidy removal in nigeria??
(1) corruption alarming
(2) alarming wastage in three tiers of govt
(3)cost of running govt stil same %age as the non existing subsidy
(4) no alternative to pms(i.e. Power)
(5) bad roads, railways,
(6) no food 4 the poor while my presido dey use 3million monthly
(7)mr presido don order 4 3 new presido jets
(8) cabals d govt said they knw but thier hands r tied.can cabals b stronger dan govt? Bt dey can deal wit d masses who elected them.dnt b fooled nigerians.shine ur eyes.
Nigeria, full of corruption, can never use the money realisd from the removal of subsidy appropriately. What will happen when the President leaves the office? Nigerians are affraid! This is a country where billions of naira were wasted on power and the result 2day is darkness. I like the subsidy removal bt i dnt trust how it is going 2 be spent. This is 9ja i knw. All the presidents that had ruled dis country has one or two refineries abroad. This may be a strategy GEJ wants 2 generate fund to build his own refinery b4 he leaves office. I rest my case
God help us
Guys peaceful protest is different from violent protest, u don't go abt burning tyres, burning shops and looting, robbing people, beating people and call it peaceful protest.....I'm 100percent against the policy but not the way hoodlums are taking over the protest, I stopped going out for protest when I discovered dat some unscrupulous elements are try to hijack the process, the protest started as a cordinated one but later turned into a violent one....I can't die for Nigeria abeg.
@esibaba & Di jiafam: Correction to your above post. The President feeds with 1billion naira a year, thats about 3MILLION NAIRA PER DAY. (Not 3million naira per month that you posted), you can imagine!
