NIGERIA FACES MORE OIL DOOM FOLLOWING NEW PUMP PRICE HIKE
A new fuel pump price has been introduced by the federal government of Nigeria. The introduction came following last Wednesday 11th May, 2016 meeting held at Aguda House, and chaired by the vice president Yemi Osibanjo, had other various stakeholders including the Leadership of the Senate, House of Representatives, Nigerian Governors Forum, Labour Union (comprising NLC, TUC, NUPENG, and PENGASSAN), in attendance, jointly increased fuel price from the formerly approved 86.50 Naira to 145 Naira.
The new price which has additional 58.5 Naira difference now becomes the currently approved fuel pump price in the country. The Government's reason for the recent increase is said to be as a result of "the inability of importers of petroleum products to source foreign exchange at the official rate due to the massive decline of foreign exchange earnings of the federal government."

In all the increases, Obasanjo has the worst record. This is in addition to the fact that all the presidents both military and civilian lived big on oil money through hikes to enable them to sell their acquired oil blocks. All the presidents that have been in Aso Rock, whether living or dead had oil blocks allocation in addition to the 100 benefits each president enjoys while in office. This includes (a) having a building in any place of his choice including London and New York. You can now understand why a London tabloid - mail.co.uk recently accused Buhari of being a double standard because he has houses in London inline with the 100 benefits. (b) The second benefit reads that the president will have six medical doctors, 3 local and 3 foreign, etc.
