Iran that's being bombarded by America and Israel, sells fuel to its citizens for about โฆ45 per litre.
Libya sells theirs for about โฆ32.
Nigeria, an oil-producing giant, makes its own people pay over โฆ1,000 per litre.
There's no pipeline vandalism going on in the country, we are not facing wars in the South and East, but we bleed to buy fuel. Let that sink in. We are blessed with crude, yet punished at the pump.
The tragedy isn't that we're poor; it's that we've normalized policies that make Nigerians suffer in a nation overflowing with resources. This isn't just economics. It's a betrayal of the people.
We still ridiculously underrate the United States.
These guys hosted the biggest event in recent human history with over 6.5 million people in attendance, and there was no security breach.
While at it, they were actively engaged in Iran, bombing and destroying terrorists in the middle east and still providing maximum safety for an event that saw the cumulative attendance of over 6.5 million people.

The 2026 World Cup qualifiers ended in 16 November 2025, and Nigeria failed to qualify after their defeat to DR Congo.
Now, the budget for 2026 fiscal year was presented on 19 December 2025.
So, tell me why "Special Presidential Support Group for 2026 World Cup qualifiers" is appearing on the 2026 budget with over N6 billion budgeted for it?
@eucleed@Millishield01 Nope..... It doesn't....
When I got mine, I changed the ball joints, stabilizer linkage, steering rack...... And that's all..... This car is super reliable.....
Your citizenship really determines so much for you. As a Nigerian, your matter long ooo.
I had a Saudi classmate when I was fling my Masters. He explained to me that all Saudis in the UK were fully sponsored by the government. I asked what his plan was after school, he said he was going back home to take up a job. He didn't even like the UK. I don't blame him, he struggled with the language and culture.
I had Korean classmates (those ones are always rich and clean). No one was staying back or had plan to.
I saw Chinese classmate 2 years later. He had started a business with his babe. He told me the government encourages them to take loan to invest abroad. I thought we were just having a discussion. I didn't know he had his plan mapped out.
My Spanish friend (the only one I still talk to), I asked him when he was going to pick up his British passport since he was eligible for it having been in UK for many years, he said he didnt need it that his passport takes him where he needs to go. I spoke to him recently and he said he is looking to leave the UK soon. He wants to return home to Barcelona. That reminds me, he has been inviting me to Barcelona ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
At the start of Covid, my Canadain flatmate packed his bag and left. He told me he would finish his program from there. I once asked how he was paying for his program (Law Undergraduate), he said he took a loan from the bank in Canada.
Then you look at Nigerians- we are always looking for how to stay back at all cost because home offers nothing. Conversation always centred around sponsorship jobs - even if it is care job. This is after working 12 hours shift through out your Masters to pay for your fees and cover for your living expenses. People are even so desperate, they are paying 10k to 12k for sponsorship job just to stay back.
