The House of Representatives’ Ad Hoc Committee to Investigate the Petroleum Products Subsidy Regime from 2013 to 2022, on Thursday, grilled the Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, over payments of subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) by the Federal Government.

“So, if you are projecting for the full year, from January to December, it will be N6.715tn. If you are projecting for half a year, it will be 50 per cent of that, 3.375tn. I said earlier in the recommendations that we sent to parliament for consideration on MTEF is half-year, that will be N3.357tn.”

The minister stated, “Fuel subsidy is the difference between the pump price which is now fixed at N165 and the landing cost which we are projecting at an average of N448 per litre in 2023. Even now, the cost is around that. “So, the PMS subsidy we are carrying today in the nation is around N283 per litre; that is what we are carrying. So, it is the difference between the pump price and the landing cost of petroleum products in the country.”All rights reserved.

U meant FG steals that amount everyday. What a corrupt & heartless regime!

Dubious leadership full of deception, God will judge all of you!

LOOTER IDENTIFIED

It is not true. Daily consumption figure highly inflated.

Madam you be thief

The best way to remove the Petroleum subsidy is to remove/ reduce the emoluments of political office holders ,repair our refineries and governance. EKD

Dislike to see this woman's face

What a man can do, this woman can do best- stealing is not corruption!

No wonder, Kemi Adeosun was removed from this government so that you can perpetrate this heinous crime against humanity. History will never ever forgive you for turning Nigeria to a failed state

This is the worst minister of finance nigeria has ever had,she should take some levitation ngozi iweala and demi adeosun

If you like spend 1 billion Dollars daily, I'm very sure that by fire by death you will all vomit every kobo stolen from our treasury. ole ajibole.

This money can lift 10000 person daily out of poverty by giving 1800000 millions for microfinance businesses. There is no how 1000 person out of this number will not employed at least 2 person to join in the business. Inwhich 2000 are employed. Save NIGERIA!!

This woman is more corrupt than Madam Madueke o o. Who are the people behind this woman doing things with impunity ?This government will come to and end ,then you will account for all these fraud you're committing. If you like follow Bubu to Niger republic his country,

Mehn!! This woman really cashed out in this their govt…

Scammers in government

This country is almost finish make God help us

Women girl friends in Buhari government.

After the government removed subsidy on diesel and kerosine? So paying subsidy on petrol alone is still taking N18.397bn daily. Haba!!! Small small now....Have mercy on common man on the street now.

Interesting..!! Really interesting..

The next gvt should arrest this apc leaders and ministers with their respective family..... What nonsense is this what do you people take us for ?

How could this be true? What have we as a country done to you guys? This figures are outrageous. 18b to clear bush, 17b to train 117 youths and 18.4b for petroleum subsidy daily....God what have we done so wrong to buhari and his cabinet? God arise in your anger for our sake pls

All our minister knows is to spend, approve funds, no idea in generating revenue. May God deliver this nation from all these lazy minds, rubber stamp people. They are only best in defrauding the nation. They lack what it takes to move the economy forward. God have mercy on us.

Something is really wrong with the analysis here..

We need our fuel subsidy untouched

This woman na thief

This woman has failed woefully

Who are the people receiving this subsidy? But no money for education. Clueless government prove themselves worthy of that title everyday. MBuhari we are tired of you being tired in office. BuhariMustGo

When GEJ begged us to stop subsidy in 2012 majority refuse now we are the one that will beg for it to be removed. This administration will send Nigeria to bankruptcy

it's you and your co fraudster that can explain where our collective wealth is going, we have refineries you refuse to let it work and keep the staff and paying them salary, by the time a true Nigeria who loves his country assume office you will all pay.

History won't forget you....

The money heist, APC version is legendary.

This announcement makes less or no meaning at all. Encourage FG to restore our Refineries.
