Who is subsidising for whom?

• When a Nigerian pays N65 for imported fuel rather than locally refined fuel, he is subsidizing the incompetence of Government
• When a Nigerian has to buy a Generator and buy Petrol and Diesel because electricity generation is worse off, he is subsidizing the incompetence in Government.
• When a Nigerian has to drill a borehole, buy pure water or Bottled water rather than get public portable Tap water, he is subsidizing the inefficiency of Government.
• When a Nigerian has to maintain 3 phone-lines or 3 different internet subscriptions just because of call-quality or crippled bandwidth, he is subsidizing the failures of Government regulation.
• When a Nigerian has to pay heavily to secure his life and property through personnel and gadgets, he is subsidizing the failure of Government to protect him constitutionally.
• For Bad roads, we subsidize by having to visit the mechanic more often than usual or sometimes with our lives.
• We can go and on about the Educational system, Health sector, the Environment, Maritime, etc.

Its time for us to remove our own subsidy by making the government do what they are suppose to do. Govt don't do us a favour when they do the work of governance... its what they are supposed to do.

That is what the mass protests & strikes re about. ENOUGH is ENOUGH!!!
