Why the citizens should pay for the
detriment of what should have been a
beneficiary to all Nigerians if not
free, but as a token to compensate
national development despite exportation
of natural resources to international
market as revenue generation to support
the country, but yet the government is
still capitalizing on lifting the
subsidy on petroleum resources. What
else will the people of
Nigeria count on as a dividend
over the year on international
transaction to nation benefit regardless
of the following which are still burden
to national and economy benefit to all
citizens?
1.
Instability of electricity as a
key factor that tarnished the support of
self, private and governmental
industrial empowerment which becomes
necessity to alleviate poverty and to
generate employment opportunities.
Besides, self-reliance, private
organizations and government parastatals
are using petroleum resource and
generators as a backup, not talking
about the cost of petrol or diesel,
generators and maintenance to support
their business. While the nation cannot
even boost of sustainable national grid
power system and yet the government
still want to slam the benefit of all
Nigerians from the subsidy.
2.
National and general hospitals
are operating almost at the cost of
private hospital on both patient charges
and maintenance as a result of high
operational cost, which in question talk
about an inclusive factor of power
plants that enjoys the benefit of the
subsidy.
3.
Portable water has become so
scarce because the water board can
hardly maintain the cost of diesel to
power the generator plants which always
became the excused.
4. Rescue support personnel such as
police, fire service to mention these
few, request for vehicle petroleum
refill before service can be rendered to
community under the stress of emergency.
This is to mention but few, oh you
patriot of great Nigeria are we truly
the so called giant of Africa that we
cannot cater for the survival our
people? Why the government cannot think
of other means of developing the
national economy rather than pasting
eyebrow on subsidy that compensate major
means of survival? Instate this will
create more problems to Nigeria people.
Who else can we count upon, where are
our votes, where are those people who
make several promises to support their
people? Please be aware…….the endeavors
of our forefathers we should not allow
it to be in vain. Vote for patriots not
parrots and grass-surfers of Nigeria
economy.
