Returning Petrol Subsidy Will Reintroduce Fuel Queues, Erase Minimum Wage β APC National Chairman
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, has reiterated his warning to citizens against supporting proposals by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar to reinstate petrol subsidies, cautioning that such a decision would return the nation to chronic fuel queues, undermine the implementation of the national minimum wage, and collapse student educational funding. Speaking in Abuja while hosting a delegation of economic stakeholders, the party leader stated that public discourse regarding petroleum subsidies must transcend political campaign promises and be evaluated based on historical economic disruptions, fiscal strain on public reserves, and negative consequences for sub-national entities.
The political executive stressed that removing subventions from refined fuel allowed the administration to redirect public resources toward essential developmental commitments, including higher education grants, critical infrastructure investments, and increased federal revenue allocations that enabled state governments to meet salary obligations. He warned that reversing structural reforms would strip funding from these priority sectors and compromise the financial capacity of both federal and state authorities to maintain public services.
"Subsidy may appear attractive because it promises cheaper petrol, but Nigerians must also ask the bigger question: who pays for the subsidy and what happens to the resources that government must divert to finance it?" the party chairman stated.

Daily masturbation is generally safe and varies from person to person. It does not cause permanent erectile dysfunction...but doing it often can temporarily reduce penile sensitivity or make erections take longer.
Plus, high-stimulation porn or a very tight grip can also affect partner sex.
Governors boasting about 'delivering' states like they're shipping Amazon packages, as if the citizens themselves don't get a say at the ballot box.
Haa! Focusing on 2027 math while millions of Nigerians are struggling with the current cost of living tells you everything about where priorities lie..
Conspicuously absent from Bayo Onanugaβs statement is a DEADLINE.
There is no completion target, no date for publishing the findings and no clear commitment to prosecute the enablers within the civil service hierarchy. Without a hard deadline, "forensic audits" in Nigeria historically become black holes where scandals go to die.
CNG is not a machine!
(CNG) stands for Compressed Natural Gas, is simply natural gas brought up from underground in Nigeria and squeezed tightly into a strong metal cylinder inside a vehicle. Instead of pouring liquid petrol into a tank, a driver pumps this gas into the cylinder, and the engine burns it to power the car, bus or keke.
The Nigerian gov't is promoting CNG because it is far cheaper than petrol.
For example, if a danfo driver spends β¦15000 on petrol to drive all day, filling the vehicle with CNG for the same distance costs around β¦4000...because fuel costs drop for drivers, passenger fees on buses and Kekes can also come down.
To make this switch happen, the government is setting up conversion workshops across the country where mechanics install CNG kits into existing vehicles....these kits add a small switch on the dashboard, allowing the driver to change between petrol and gas whenever they want without damaging the engine.
Using CNG helps the entire Nigerian economy stay stable, since importing petrol requires spending billions in foreign US Dollars, which makes petrol prices go up whenever the Naira is weak. Since Nigeria already has natural gas supplies right here at home, using domestic gas keeps money inside the country and protects citizens from constant petrol price increases.
Hope this helps.

Let's say Aminuβs small provisions shop was stuck because he couldn't afford to buy goods in bulk, keeping his profits low.
He joined a 10-person Ajo group where everyone contributed β¦50K monthly.
Picking the first slot, Aminu collected the full β¦500K lump sum right away. He immediately used the money to stock his shop at wholesale prices, which doubled his daily sales.
Over the next nine months, paying his monthly 50K back was easy because the profits from his expanded shop easily covered it...the payout gave him the zero-interest capital he needed to grow his business without taking out a bank loan.

Basically, Nig pasta is expensive because making it inside the country costs a lot of money. Nigerian companies must buy raw wheat from abroad using expensive foreign money.
On top of that, local factories have to run on costly diesel power because electricity is unstable and high transport costs make the final product even pricier.
Now, imported foreign pasta is cheaper because foreign governments help pay for their farmers' costs, making production very cheap overseas. Plus,many foreign pasta brands enter Nigeria without paying full taxes or custom duties...allowing sellers to keep their prices lower than locally made options.
I don't understand Nigerian Economics π π π
Foreign Spaghetti is cheaper than Golden Penny, which is made in Nigeria.
Foreign Pasta is β¦700-750, while Naija-made is β¦1,100
