This amounts to nothing plz.. how many litres of fuel and how many seeds of tomatoes can 5K buy?? I wonder who makes these policies. This is not even half way proportionate to the suffering people are experiencing now. I expected them to increase minimum wage to at least 25-30K.
ReplyDeleteGreed!! That's the word. Now young lady listen, I am not a Nigerian but I will tell of u this, Bhuary is changing your country for the best. You have to live else where to appreciate what he's trying to do. N5000 isn't big yes but it's enuf to call it a start. If he orders N50000 monthly for everyone your country will suffer economic back slide in less than 5 months. I see good things coming your (Nierians) way
ReplyDeleteThumbs up for that nice comments. Instead of her to be appreciative she went ahead to condem it. You cannot please these people. Jonathan and his people came and loot this country dry yet these group of people aplaud them. Here is an honest president trying to fix this country, even making arrangements to give out money to people who have no means of livelihood yet he is being condem. What a shame.

Theyshud collect loan and be droppin 5k monthly abi? removal of subsidy is ok, but not rightnow and nor this way in a country where everythin inceases with fuel increase. Gej increased salaries in 2011 prior to his removal bt we rejected it. Now in the midst of hardship, you want us to clap to this?
This is rubbish, we are talking about fuel price and they want deceive some people 5,000 a month. What's 5k a month?. Change indeed

ReplyDeleteI would prefer an increase in number of hours I have power at home to getting N5000 from the government.
