President Buhari plans to totally remove fuel subsidy and use the proceeds for the provision of free and compulsory primary/secondary education across the country. The administration is also said to be working on unbundling the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, to make it more efficient in the production and delivery of products to Nigerians.
These proposals form part of the strong recommendations made by the transition committee raised by Buhari to work out a blueprint for his administration.Asked if the proposal for total subsidy removal had been discussed with labour, the source said that members of organized labour in the country were consulted by the committee and they made presentations on what should be done over the matter.
The source said:
“ Labour is part of the decision; they have accepted the proposal of fuel subsidy removal. “A committee is likely to be set up by the federal government to work out the modalities of what is to be done in that respect. “But the truth is that total removal of fuel subsidy has been recommended with adequate provisions for palliatives on free education and social welfare for the unemployed”, a member of the transition committee said.
The source pointed out that unlike in the past, the Buhari administration is considering the provision of free meals for students to serve as incentives for them to enroll in school.

Fuel subsidy removal dat AC resisted at Gani park.
When Goodluck removed fuel subsidy.. oh it was 'occupy nigeria' mtchew! Upon all the insults showered on goodluck, he sha laid the foundation to a solid nigeria.
He did say he dsnt know what subsidy is so....
No surprises here.
I support u! Over greedy politicians at the end of their tenure stomach go come be like say dem drink beans water.
Still a proposer right? Wl wait till is bn implemented
With d refineries working, total subsidy removal is only logical.
Let's hope they know what they are doing
Very good development! Nice one PMB.
Guys pls check my blog and show some support.
It will be a good move, difficult at the beginning but in the long run Nigerians will enjoy.
No, proposal! Copy and paste still works.

Ok. Let's see how it goes. It's well. Anything to make 9ja a better place.
❤❤❤ THE PROPHETESS ❤ ❤ ❤
Nija n fish brain. Lol. He Wants to remove subsidy when the refineries are not in optimal working conditions? N u people are saying gud one gud one.....lol. Una never c anything until a litre of petrol is sold for #500.
2mr they will come and say another thing...OK naa
Fingers crossed!
This is the first time in a long time that I have seen the Government come up with a plan and have a well thought out process for execution. Nice job!
But were you not one of the 'occupy nigeria' people?
If dumbo Jonadaft had handled the removal of subsidy well at the time he did, Nigerians would understand. We were not informed. We just woke up one day, in the new year and subsidy was removed. In the last eight weeks, we have all seen that few rich boys are holding us to ransome. I have been buying at nothing less than 130 naira. Remove the subsidy and and the price won't be higher than what obtains now. At least, the free money will stop flowing to some rogues.
Don't forget to make our refineries work too.
Don't mind Nigerians.. This thing they are rejoicing over was d same reason they occupied Nigeria and criticised Gej..
This subsidy was d same thing Gej wanted 2 do and he was massively criticised and our celebrities occupied Nigeria
APC!!!!!! But GEJ wanted to remove it ke?????..Chai!..SMH..APC!!!!!
Ok good, I think it will all make sense at long run.......
Whatever that means. I hopoe it doesn't continue to increase d price of fuel.
Many Nigerian are hypotries and they are full of pretends. I could remember vividly in 2012 when goodluck Jonathan remove fuel subsidy there were protest everywhere, people that do not know the meaning of subsidy were busy causing trouble in the name of subsidy remover.Today the same fuel subsidy which was suppose to be remove then have now become a welcome idea and people are singing praise song for Buhari.Let always remember that conscience is an open wound only truth can heal it. An okra plant can never grow taller than its planter, no matter how tall it will ever grows.
Proposer ogundiran? Really?
~D great anonymous!
A rare gem
It will be great if implemented...
Moye says so via BB Passport...Courtesy LIB......
Really! See people saying its ok. But when good luck tried it Nigerians revolted.
Change
Let d change begin...
"Slow and steady wins d race"
I LIKE THE FREE EDUCATION INITIATIVE BECAUSE PART OF THE PROBLEM WE HAVE IN NIGERIA TODAY IS ILLITERACY.

Hahahahaha Bloody hypocrites,i thought Buhari said only a wicked government will remove subsidy? Chai and y'all crucified jonathan. Change gbakwoku
But if the refineries starts functioning is there still any need for d subsidy? And with functional refineries subsidy removal shouldn't increase price of products rather it should even go down slightly below the current price of 87 naira
Is it not the same thing as SURE-P?....APC copy copy
No No No. GMB u can't do that. Remove subsidy ok. But if y are a thorough nd discipline leader as we have bn made to understand, give us specific list of infrastructures u will channel the proceeds to develop. Bcos providing free education for pry and secondary schl is only a means of creating a POOL for thieves to enrich themselves. I will never kno where the money goes. They will gv our children some horrible food and say they ve spent subsidy money No NO and NO.. remove subsidy ok but uses the proceed to provide clearly stated infrastructures that is acceptable. Schl feeding is an avenue to create thieves.
Occupy Nigeria!!we have to oCcupy o
But still dont understand why people were against GEJ when he removed subsidy. I could still remember the "Occupy Nigeria" campaign
I recall APC called on GEJ to resign during occupy Nigeria. Now we will have a double effect on inflation
Human Being No Be God
I hope it's not a case of robbing Peter to pay Paul.
😃😃😃😃,still watching the apc govt.
Esteem
Fantastic,I like this Man so much.You are a Man of your words.
Remove the subsidy ASAP...Its only making some criminals aka Tompolo, Ayiri billionaires
It still part of they change if ???????????
Nne bike do you work with Guinness?
Yeeeeiiii
Buhari won kill ppl, how will u totally remove subsidy when no refinery is functioning in niaja yet... How do we survive ?
Isn't he doing d opposite of wat he said he wud do? I thought he wanted to bring down d price of fuel. Pls Nigerians start being wise @d gullible le Ones
Ur just a fool. U hv a recurring stupidity. Ode
#NWord
GOOD FOR THE MASSES!!!!
Aww that's a good initiative . that's wassup
The refineries would start working so what is the need for fuel subsidy ehen? REMOVE THE DARN THING!!!
All d people here shouting good move but occupied Nigeria when GEJ removed subsidy. God punish you for ur hypocrisy. Una no go see better for life. Complete moronic non entities
He never removed subsidy,he increased the fuel price and did it just after the New year,so get your facts right.Stop being baised.
If the refineries are working, remove the subsidy. Channelling the proceeds to free education and meals is a NO please. We don't need free education and free meals in Nigeria again! We need light and industries! The people you are educating upon graduation what will happen? We have had enough of these same old same old school. We should focus on vocational and technical schools. Enough of the cramming and theories! In conclusion, we need jobs! We need power to stablize and create businesses.
How did Goodluck remove Subsidy?is it by mouth?Was any refinery working?Abeg go sleep if you don't have anything tangible to say.
Really? Ok now, we are watching and waiting.
#TeamBlessed#
The protest was over the hike in price you fool! Not over the removal. Why Nigerian youths no dey like use their head sef?
Chai. Not gonna b.easy o.
GOD help us all...
I just pray this move take us closer to
what we've always wanted...
Well said brother!
Do u know what removal of subsidy means? Dats petroleum at a higher cost. U still dey chop ur papa fud sha
Oga, AC didn't resist, Nigeria resisted cos we didn't trust d man proposing (or rather imposing) it.
Remember, a bazooka in the wrong hands would do more damage than protect
Wat has she said to warrant the abuse.... Well same here I wont believe until I see it happening
it is absolutely stupid. is it now d fuel dat we use to on our gens bcos of no light. u want to increase d fuel price and we re still going to buy it for d gen bcos of no light. is he not suppose to use d money to generate more megawatts so we can have light for 24hours per day?
he is killing peter to pay Paul
hahaha.thats ur problem. don't worry linda has been observing u for d end of year giveaway
This group of anonymous dunces, do you all realise that the removal of subsidy will mean an initial increase in fuel price? Which is wat gej tried to do before he partially reversed it cuz y'all occupied nigeria.
God bless you
Tell them o. I wonder what caliber of youths we are raising in this country now. Young men n women who would see white and insist it's black. O ga o!
May God Bless Our Good Intentions! Amen!

Wel said, tot everybody here doesn't have sense.
Anon 12.37am, hero my ass! His people deliberately sabotaged the completion of the TAM on those refineries for years, so they could continue to import and pay subsidy. Just watch this guy remove subsidy and petrol prices fall at the same time.
All dis stupidity and lack of reasoning from you guys is becoming increasingly alarming! All dis just cos he took una brother as his vice? Hmmm I pity una o
He's a wicked man.
Tinubu too
good move
ALL THOSE AGAINST FREE EDUCATION ARE FOOLS. THEY DONT WANT EVERYBODY TO BE EDUCATED AND EMPOWERED SO THAT THEY WONT CHALLENGE THEM WHEN THEY ARE EMBEZZLING GOVERNMENT FUNDS. EVERYBODY NEEDS TO GET AN EDUCATION SO THAT YOUR LEADERS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TELL YOU RUBBISH AND YOU ACCEPT IT LIKE AN ILLITERATE GOAT.

IT IS LACK OF EDUCATION THAT IS MAKING BOKO-HARAM BRAIN-WASH PEOPLE (ALMAJIRIS) TO DO SUICIDE BOMBING. IF YOU ARE WELL EDUCATED, YOU WILL NOT ALLOW IDIOTS TO TALK YOU INTO BOKO-HARAM

this man old oh.. where him de go near well well
Good move President Buhari, total removal of fuel subsidy is long overdue. I concur with outright removal but make sure our refineries are up and running, that will be enough palliative on its own cos the prices of petroleum product will fall on the long run. Too many scam in that sector.
I am new here! Linda where is your bell of blessing?
