Another avenue to steal money

This is the craziest and most senseless thing I’ve heard in history of Nigeria. So question: what did this government see now that, Jonathan’s government didn’t see. This same ppl protested against Jonathan’s subsidy removal. What’s different

Somebody shout Audio.

They think people were mumus

There was a country indeed! I know the gullible will be shouting now that the government have done well, kudos to them. Fools! Get ur calculator, multiply 5,000 by 4 million, whatever the answer is multiply by probably 12. The wise ones will know that people are been fooled 😞😡

NGN200, 000,000,000.00 on the spray again. What have we done to deserve all these things?

Foolish and useless government, they want to divide 5k to APC members

Lolz..... Sinking ship

When the pump price rises to N340,salaries or wages will be worthless,landlords will increase the rent,the schools will increase the tuition & parents must pay;food prices,transport,water & electricity bills will jerk up.They live in Mars & think 5k can solve all these problems.

Implement minimum wage first. Yen yen yen audio people

They're all mad

Vote buying

In a country with no comprehensive database of it masses want to share money to poor ppl. How did they knw the ppl that are poor? 2023 is coming pls let start electing smart leaders.

The Buhari's government do nothing other than remixing their fraud template and representing it for us to swallow and vomit money for them.

5,000x40,000,000=200,000,000,000 (Two Hundred Billion Naira Monthly) The plan is to loot 2.4 Trillion Naira within a year which is the same with the “claimed” subsidy. Hardship+Looting for what. A very heartless policy supported by IMF

There is nothing like subsidy Buhari and his cronies just want to loot more

Another way of stealing funds

Another school feeding program. All yahoo yahoo. Money they will loot under the cover of cash remittances

Subsidy pro max

Very silly decision.

Wicked generation

There are over 200 million Nigerians with a large percentage of that number being youths in the 18-45yrs range... How is 'N5,000 transport grant for 40million' a good fix for whatever problems 'subsidy removal' is going to create..? How!!?

Great idea

Another conduit to syphon the people's money. Shameless!

What's hard for government to keep this 5k meant for 40m people and use it to replace subsidy because this 5k no go reach anywhere

Govt that failed to disburse covid-19 palliative & spent all the money foreigner gave them are promising to give N5,000. It shall not be well with all of you

What of the other 160m people? How are they supposed to get around town?

6yrs down the line... What have this admin done in the petroleum sector... They told us subsidy was fraud then... Now we are here again...

Buhari and lamba are like 5&6

Which channel is this?

2023 is coming, Anybody that votes for APC/PDP well we will all enjoy it together.

Failure

The government should Instruct oil companies to build refineries before removing fuel subsidy

I bet 20 million of them will be fulani terrorists and the other 20 million will be untraceable 'ghost' cash recipients. Awon ole, oloriburuku.

The devil truly wears Prada... Ndi arâ !

Does that even make sense? This government lack strategy, this is just another opportunity to embezzle money.

Ori n tayin

Hahahahahahahaha... That is two hundred billiob! No way!!!

What happened to providing low cost transportation and good roads instead? Oh i forgot, it's APC administration where they are not allowed wisdom but wickedness and foolishness combined. Continue- to- borrow- to-loot- administration!

These people are they not tired of stealing money? Another way to steal more money! Nigerians that voted for this government una never see anything yet!

This is the only government I've seen alway looking for means to share money.. Today they'd send the vp, next they'd send ministry of humanitarian whatever.. Next they're budgeting 5k for 40 million people. Always looking for how to thief. Criminals

Lootocracy🤣🤣🤣

Ori awon eyan ti gbemi.. 5k monthly or 5k one off every year? Who dey reason for this people?

Money for 2023 election....ndi oshi. Man of integrity my foot.

So, who are the 40 million Nigerians? Another scam loading, fuel pump price is about to hit the roof again..

beginning of a scam....they should fix the roads and ease the pain of the general public.

I have been seen non-directional system in my life but this 2015-2023 is the real one. How on earth will 5k make any meaningful life. Just a KG of gas is now N800

Another platform they want to use and disburs funds that will soon be borrowed for health

So we are still going to spend another year with this government gosh!! This is hell endsars EndBadGoveranceInNigeria

The money will be shared only in the north believe me

Ah!

5000 X 40m = 200 billion. In a year it adds up to 2.4 trillion naira.Then how much does it cost to build a new refinery with the income and employment it will generate.Common sense is really uncommon for this people
