It Makes No Sense For Oil To Be Cheaper In Nigeria Than Saudi Arabia – Buhari NigeriaAt60 CTVNigeriaAt60

President Muhammadu Buhari has defended the current price of fuel in the country, stating that a responsible government must face realities.

The president compared the oil price in Nigeria to those of neighbouring countries, arguing that it makes no sense for oil to be cheaper in Nigeria than it is in other oil-producing nations.“Petroleum prices in Nigeria are to be adjusted. We sell now at N161 per litre. A comparison with our neighbours will illustrate the point;Niger, also an oil-producing country sells 1 litre at N346.Further afield, Egypt charges N211 per litre. Saudi Arabia charges N168 per litre.

The president called for a sincere process of national healing as the nation marks the 60th anniversary of its independence from Great Britain.

I can't believe this statement is coming from you. Rethink is one of your promises

I don't believe our president said this... maybe it was doctored ... because , I mean, you see, you know, hmmmmmmm, I am sorry for Nigeria, I am sorry for this nation.. is this the Change I joined people to voted for ? I regretted ! I for stays in my house that day

Foolish write up 🙄

I see Nigeria way no get light no road no hospital, why compare us with them or are they African?

Buhari has come to damage APC and Nigeria structure.

What of healthcare & education?

But it makes sense not to also tell us their minimum wage

It makes no sense for minimum wage to be low in Nigeria compared to Saudi Arabia

PMB and his advisers just showed me their level of ignorance comparing us to Saudi Arabia regarding PMS price.. Mr president, reqd and educate yourself and apologise to us

God sent Buhari to punish us. Until we take charge and vote senseless people out of power, we will continue to see news like this.

For comparing oil pump price with KSA, it really show how incompetent you are as a president, because we have a president whom does not know his left to right.

I remembered 1985 that this man Buhari was the military head of state then, his regime then was so poor. I wonder how such a man found his way back again in the seat of power in this 21st century..

Is he literally saying he's on his way to making it more expensive than it is now Mr President, can you please be awake!!!! We are celebrating 60 and this is the best statement we can get for 60. Nigeria, which way? I won't be surprised if I wake one morning and it's 400

And their so called vision 2020 hmmmm

This is the worst uneducated president in the history of Nigeria

You are right sir. It makes no sense for wages to be poorer here too.

Ehn .... But it makes sense for minimum wage to be equal to a bag of rice....

And as well it makes no sense for Saudi Arabia to get minimum wage higher than that of nigeria

I think the president is drawing our attention to be more committed in building our nation as the citizens of this country.

I hope you will emulate Saudi Arabia in other facets, e.g. zero taxation for its citizens, provision of infrastructure and security as well. Please Copy Saudi Arabia in an All-embracing manner!!!

Yes ✌️ ooo... But it makes sense for a bag of Rice to be sold N28,000.00 It makes sense for a liter of PMS to be sold N160.00 It makes sense for the masses to go to bed with empty stomach. It makes sense for the price of Commodities to be high.

This is an insult on the whole nation. When did we start comparing ourselves with Saudi Arabia? You have used up all the other excuses like smuggling of our petroleum products to neighboring countries. The social amenities that the government of Saudi offers, have given us?

Go to hell with that your mumu speech

This statement is an insensitive one.

MBuhari He should have included that during his campaign,I believe there price was higher when he promised to reduce fuel price during his campaign among other promise

We simply made a big mistake with this empty head called buhari,,,,,,,,,, how i hope we can reverse the hands of the clock & undo this monumental mistake.

Here for comments

No need to waste our time. This administration is the biggest joke in history.

It makes no sense to be a poor citizen in a country as rich as Nigeria while the politicians and leaders live in so much embezzled riches.

WONDERS OF A NEW NIGERIA: 1: So Buhari can now speak good English 2: So Buhari can now appear shorter 3: So Buhari can now look younger 4: So NIGERIA president can only afford pre-recorded broadcast during independent ceremony? Your shame is shaming me ooo

What baffles me is that some idiots in Nigeria will still vote him if there was a 3rd term in the constitution and we'll still be chanting 'sai baba'... RevolutionNow

It probably doesn't make sense that morons are mismanaging the oil resources in the Niger Delta while erroneously comparing Nigeria to Saudi Arabia. PMB as the oil minister should be more forthcoming with Nigerians than lying through his teeth.

This man no dey taya for mumu talk

All is well that ends well So help us God...

Buhari is a scam

Senior jibril...railway into Nigel republic..oil too cost for your own country! What a way to usher in the independence.💣 my country people..my country people election Dey near oooooo...

Who in the hell wrote this piece to Mr President?

This is just the beginning of the fall of Jagaban

Did Nigeria provide the same level of infrastructure for her citizen as Saudi Arabia?

Who wrote this thing for this man called PMB? Ohhh my God! What a shame

How much is the minimum wage of Saudi Arabia and how much is Nigerian Minimum wage.

What is Paramount to me,is that they need to make public the parameter used to arrive at this price. That will enable the citizens to demand for reduction when the need be. We citizens need to make informed decision on this matter. I SAY NO TO FUEL SUBSIDY

Nothing makes sense in the government inclusive of your policies, appointments and administration.

MBuhari it make no sense to increase minimum wage but it make sense to increase fuel price. Go check back how much chad 🇹🇩, Egypt 🇪🇬 and Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 are paying their government workers minimum wage.

It also make no sense for old unintelligent leaders to continue leading ds country

It makes no sense addressing citizens with a pre-recorded video and saying it's live broadcast. It makes no sense shutting down 4 refineries, paying minimum wage of 30,000 whereas Saudi Arabia pays 450,000. The people have woken up, it's game over for you!

How will Mr President compear Nigeria with any nation in the world. Even Nigeria cannot be compear will Gana in everything.

Cluelessness is a disease. How can you place an incompetent man in power and expect good resolutions. The doom is getting deeper and I believe fight go soon burst. E go shock everybody when e turn many Nigeria instead of one. God dey watch una, our bad leaders

You are a mess, the most curious person in the world, incapacitated, dead man.

Can someone tell this Alhaji that it’s not the price of petrol Nigerians are concerned about. It’s how they will afford it. Big difference!!

And it makes no sense for Nigerians to be poor. Nigeria found oil around the same time as Norway and the Nigerian economy was bigger than Norway’s what happened?

Can you imagine this? Does it make sense for Saudi Arabia to have their minimum wage at 305,000 naira while ours remains at a paltry 30000? God! We need your help in Nigeria

How much is their minimum wage Oga President?

It is just a metaphor statement

And you think this man wakes up from the right side of his bed everyday

Today is my saddest day all because of PMB speech on the justification and rationale behind the increment in fuel and removal of subsidy/ comparing countries whose minimum wage rate, per capita income and human capital index etal, cannot be equated. I can’t imagine.

Such comparison can only be reasonable where the economic indexes in both countries are currently the same. And we know for a fact that,that is not the case!

It make no sense for Saudi Arabia to have better road network, hospitals, public schools, clean water, constant electricity, safe environment, smart security men and women and leaders with vision And we don't have any of these. Fools be quoting shit whenever it's convenient.

Same way it makes no sense for our minimum wage to be lesser than theirs....

Hmmmmm

This is what makes me to be highly disappointed with this Buhari govt, can we compare the rates of our Naira with Saudi Arabia currency? This let me understand that our leaders doesn't understand the problem of Nigeria. It is quite unfortunate that blind man led blind men.......

Saudi Arabia,the oil price benchmark

it makes no sense of not comparing Saudi Arabia salary with Nigerians salary

Did the people that prepared the speech for the president intentionally forgot to tell him the equivalent minimum wages for those countries or the president himself didn't bother to find out Hook, line, sinker!!!

President of Saudi Arabia. Well done

All this nonsense write up I keep on seeing on internet is disappointing. How will a responsible president make such a awful statement? Although I don't blame you it is the Yorubas that put us into this mess. How will a sensible person make such a statement

This is the Most Terrible Statement from someone called a President of a country. Very Unthoughtful! Very irreasonable! Very insensible! Very Absurd! Very Shameful! Its certainly 'makes no sense' having this man as a president. Its a woe to the land.

But it makes sense that life should be worth living in Saudi Arabia than Nigeria abi?

tell us what did nigeria achieve compare to saudi arabia

What has masses or poor Nigerians gains from this oil you talking about Mr. No Sense President...you are totally Rubbish😡😡

But it makes sense for minimum wage to be lesser in Nigeria than Saudi Arabia

He has forgotten his promise concerning fuel

MBuhari, u & yur entire cabinet members are big fools 4 making dis senseless speech in yur horrible broadcast 2de. U want to sell fuel same price as dat of S/Arabia & u don't want to make life easy 4 Nigerians as obtainable in d same S/Arabia. Insensitivity of d highest order!

Imagine the comparison, Heaven and earth are two part that will never meet, of all the things you want to compare Sir, it's fuel, why not compare education,health, transparency in governance, infrastructure etc. If you want to borrow a leave from another borrow something useful

And it will not also make sense if our economy is in the same level as that of Saudi Arabia hun

Then it makes no sense for Saudi to sell what they have in a hike prise to their people...... Must we do it the way others do it? This Nigeria not Saudi

It makes a big sense, cos Saudi is developed, we are not. Nothing is working, so why increase the sufferings. No power, no roads, no hospital, no food, mention it.

Vision less leadership.

I don't no what this man took before making these speech comparing us with Saudi Arabia is like comparing brand new car with tokunbo dont no who we offend to deserve this kind of president 😣😣😣

DIS MAN IS A NONENTITY.. TINUBU YOU SEE WHAT YOU BROUGHT TO NIGERIANS..COMPARING HIS COUNTRY WITH SAUDI ARABIA..WHAT IS THE MINIMUM WAGE IN SAUDI AND THE GDP PER CAPITAL IN SAUDI.. NONENTITY INDEED

Am now fully convinced dat Buhari z an audio president, I pity dos who believed on Nigeria

He is wrong

He has lost his sense of reasoning

But how much is the salary of saudiyya workers compare to Nigerian own?

Why will u be comparing your developing country with a developed one, nawa oooo

Naso we hear him talk for Tv

Pls Mr president come off this and wake up from your slumber.. Your comparison with other neigbouring country is a slap to your face.

Is it old age or does MBuhari smoke something that effects his brain so bad?

Then it make no sense for you to be a president in Nigeria

Does it make sense for education, electricity, road, health care, minimum wage to be worse in Nigeria than in Saudi Arabia? Does it make sense that our oil has not produced for us what Saudi's oil has produced for Saudi? NigeriaAt60 CTVNigeriaAt60

Sir, does it make sense for minimum wage of Nigerians to be lower than Saudi Arabia?

So you people didn't read this ARISEtv AIT_Online SilverbirdTV Is this not hate speech ? The expression below validate Nepotism in all Federal Institutions, Agency and others.

But it makes sense to paying high pms and being pay less in minimum wage 30k. Is 30k there minimum wage in Saudi?.. Find solution to Nigeria problem

This make no sense at all. Is Saudi Arabia Nigeria? It’s high time we are forward thinking President at 60’

Saudi Arabia uses its oil money for d good of its citizens, not to be stolen or 2 pay sm pple dt cald themselves senators or reps baseless salaries. if i knw i will pay high PMS price n for dt, i will drive on gd roads, der will be constant light etc. i will pay.

It makes a lot of sense Sir. You can't compare the minimum wage because if that is taken into consideration, fuel in Nigeria should be 20-25naira.

Nigerians are not morons , our beloved President, always cross check your facts and figures before addressing the nation . Happy 60th anniversary, all will be well for our beloved Country very soon in Jesus name, amen.

How much is Saudi money to the Dollar Ole ole everywhere!!

UAE employment visa ban is still not resolved...

Back it up with facts. What is the minimum wage in Saudi...?

This man is advertising his fairlure indirectly.

But it makes sense for innocent Nigerians to go with empty stomach, unsecured and victims of greedy politicians. Mr. President, you need to look into and adjust your leadership policies! Nigeria can still be better! It only requires political will.

We follow saudi's Price tag bumper to bumper excluding other things of interest.

May God forgive you look at what a president of a Nation is saying shame on you

I thought it was just the head of the fish that was rotten, it's the entire fish

Let us spit on Nigeria, it's our God forbid

We need to deliver ..... to our president🤐. Fill in the gap and follow our page if you agree

Buhari is absolutely right ! 4 more years ! Say baba 🙌🏾

I gave up long ago.

The naira equivalence of the minimum wage in Egypt is N53,000 and that in Saudi Arabia is N366,000 but it makes sense for the minimum wage in Nigeria to be N30,000... Our Government only takes one side of the stories, the side that gives them more money. NigeriaAt60

Lol should it make sense that the same Saudi Arabia has a minimum wage of roughly 300k naira equivalent

So this is what SW prefer over GEJ 🤷‍♂️

That makes what you're saying a complete nonsense when Saudi has provided basic amenities to their citizens, jobs, energy schools etc.

Best president in Nigeria, we promise to vote in APC next election

is this man well at all

The Labour of our Heroes Past😭😭😭 The Future of our dear country😞😞😞

Hmmm...Could It Be True That This Man Is Truly Jubril From Sudan?

Kai clueless

It makes no sense to vote and elect a senseless president MBuhari too!

Nigeria60AndUseless

Is Saudi Arabia a brother to Nigeria. O sure pe o wa ok?

Enjoy the change. One chance Integrity.......

Margot has eaten his brain. He only say what was programmed into his empty head after that he can't recalled it.

Why not add to the price.

But it makes sense to suffer the masses..

It’s quite unfortunate the kind of leadership Nigeria is burdened with. I still cannot believe the Presidents statement on fuel pricing. Comparing pump prices like for like without factoring other indices. May God help Nigeria!

These guys unfortunately ruling Nigeria don't know jackshit. Saudi govt gave her citizens stable electricity,the 453-km Haramain high-speed railway is electric,Riyadh to Qasim rail& many more are all electric, reducing the use of petrol,unlike in Nigeria where petrol is evrythn

Buhari is aware of the cost of gasoline in Saudi but is unaware that the IGP did not go to Benue when he ordered him to, according to Osinbajo he is unaware of the details of the NLTP, he is unaware of all happenings in Nigeria, but knows the cost of fuel in Niger, Chad and Saudi

Yes Mr. President, MBuhari you're right Sir. Please, Can You Tell Nigerians How Much Is The Minimum Wage Of Saudi Arabia Workers. Social amenities, etc

Cai....history will never forget your false hopes

No brainer leadership of all time , This is the worst thing that has ever happen to Nigeria . Since when I know this guy I know that is a scam to Nigeria as a whole, imagine him comparing Naija with Saudi . Anyway I rest my case.

It makes no sense for someone like you to lead Nigeria, you aren't even qualified to be a WhatsApp admin much less a country

It’s better to remain silent than this garbage you called broadcast Buhari.

He's so passive that he can't even make 1SAR= 1naira and he's comparing Nigeria with Saudi Arabia. This is CRAZYDEMO

One chance Nigeria

Bad speech coming from the President.

The price of gasoline in Saudi Arabia is 1.68 Riyal , 1 Riyal is 101 Naira. A llitre of gas in Saudi is 1 Riyal and not 168 Riyal

but it makes sense for Saudi Arabia minimum wage to be higher than Nigeria own, useless government

Hmmmm I never hear that before ooo Our petrol must not be cheaper Dan Saudi Arabia oil 😯😲😧🙀😮

It makes no sense 😭 that Saudi refines its crude oil while Nigeria led by PMB STILL IMPORT crude oil products. Height of Incompetence and lack of depths

Oga you forgot to look at our minimum wage and Saudi Arabia minimum wage to

Are the standard of living of Saudi Arabia same with Nigeria

Complete mbecile

It makes no sense having you as a president.

This is a mad man statement. is Nigeria as develop as saudi Arabia?

Reading the scripts of his ignorant and gullible advisers. It makes no sense....comparing Nigeria with Saudi Arabia is a senseless scope to use. We have consumers of our products but lake a good government initiative.

It's not fair to compare Nigeria with KSA, TOTALLY UNFAIR

Yes I agree with you , but give us the quality of life that obtains in Saudi...

It makes no sense that you play deaf to the tears of Nigerians , innocent life slaugthered , police & SARS harresing and killing the youths over nothing,it makes no sense that your administration is comfortable with boko haram, it makes no sense that you're called a President😫

It is highly senseless for the President of Nigeria to compare his country with Saudi Arabia. There is none at all. With the high level of disappointment been experienced by the common man.

But Saudi Arabia pays more than 300,000 as minimum wage, and Pls don't compare us with Saudiyya because there standard of living is per beyound Nigeria.

It makes no sense for all those countries to have 24hrs power while Nigeria has darkness. Those countries, individuals and companies don't spend on fuel to power their homes and industries.

How can the president of a country say this to her people on independence day? This government is truly dysfunctional.

If u want to justify ur incompetency and lack of human sympathy on the situation of other countries, u first have consider their standard of living and how much is their minimum wage.

The worst president ever..

Beast of no Nation

It surely doesn't make any sense that the minimum wage is Saudi Arabia is equivalent to N305, 125 as against our minimum wage. It doesn't make any sense that a President can be so economical with the truth!

This is becoming so serious. Our president needs to be an optimist and source of encouragement...

It makes no sense for the price of Fuel to be cheaper than that of Saudi Arabia. But it make sense for Saudi to have constant light while we spend our minimum wage buying fuel for generators. It make sense for Saudi to pay 300k for minimum wage while we pay 30k. Worst speech ever

NigeriaAt60 MBuhari Nigeria should not be Poorer than Saudi Arabia......

Vagabonds in Power; awon international thief thief!

How much did these so called administration tell us that fuel will be sold before they came on board? The are now changing mouth. God will judge you all. The worst administration ever in the history of Nigeria.

This is preposterous. Saudi Arabia is better developed than Nigeria.

One funny thing about this so called administration is the don't think before talking, how much is Saudi Arabians minimum wage? The have good roads, electricity,basic amenities etc, what do Nigeria have?

Saudi can keep thier prices that way because the government provides for its citizens... whats thier minimum wage thier.... read what they have done b4 comparing us with them. Complete failure.

To think I campaigned for this man in his first tenure. I don't mind paying exorbitant prices for basic amenities accepted I'm earning exorbitant salary. Mr man since you've deregulated oil prices, deregulate our salary like yours too.

But it makes Sense when legislators are going away with the Tax payers Bill...LOVE IS ALL THATS MISSING HERE WITH US BLACK

The Ogun that will punish MBuhari is still doing press up

Why is things so rough in Nigeria 😡😡😡

Azeez47399167 Mother fucker...

Don't compare the two countries because Saudi Arabia Per Capita Income and Purchasing Power far higher than Nigeria. There minimum wage and standard of living far higher.

Why it makes no sense is bcos U are unintelligent

Ow much is minimum wage in Saudi Arabia compare to Nigeria.

☺♥°¹²³⁴®_ Hmmm it makes no sense to have dis yeye man in Government ¬♣Oct ²°²°©

And it makes no sense for the quality of life to be better in Saudi Arabia than in Nigeria nigerianotindependent

Mr president, Saudi Arabia minimun wage is 3000 saudi riyals which is 304,489. 79 in naira. For us to get 30,000 minimun wage in Nigeria we had to protest, and the economies are not mate, so please stop comparing the price of oil in Saudi Arabia with that of Nigeria

What is our minimum wage compared to theirs.

Happy Independence Nigeria 🇳🇬 Sir Abubakar Tafawa Independence speech 1960. 🌄🇳🇬 Queen Elizebath visit to Nigeria in 1956 and 1960 NigeriaAt60 👇🏻

May God help this man to come out of his senses... Kai..

Am I the only one that is sure that heaven is not for some ppl

Bastard

It makes no sense for quality of life to be better in Saudi Arabia than Nigeria

But the minimum wage in saudi arabia is different from Nigeria

Foolish talk and baseless comparism

Channel news for you guys to broadcast this trash sef...I am blocking you guys...let me watching porn than seeing this on my Twitter

Are we sure this is our president 🤦🏿‍♀️🤦🏿‍♀️🤦🏿‍♀️

But it makes sense that we re suffering here while they re enjoying their natural endowment with quality infrastructures.

I want to believe Baba's account has been hacked 🙄

Someone please remind me the agreement between NLC and Government last week, as regards fuel?

Just as it makes no sense for Nigeria to be poorer than Saudi Arabia. I wish our leaders can learn the art of drawing proper inferences.

Clueless leadership pls compare minimum wage, Infrastrucure, security and education also, then you will know how senseless your statement is, pls go back to your Aso bunker and continue your sleep

Mr president can you compare the standard of living in Saudi Arabia with that of Nigeria

The extent Nigeria government will go to justify mediocrity is unthinkable.

Sale the oil in Saudi ريال

_McOatt 🧠shallow gaaan

I don't hear somebody somewhere shouting 'sai baba!'. Where are they? Abeg make una come praise baba na!

What is our business with Saudi Arabia.oga Nigeria is not Saudi Arabia 60 see the so called giant of Africa.. What a shame

Is Saudi Arabia the poverty capital of the world Mr President

A rather lame analogy from MBuhari, 1USD is less than 4SAR, (₦465/US$1 in the parallel market), yet you compare pump price in NG, a country with a massive import-dependent oil&gas downstream to KSA. How about taming the Naira's freefall?

Great.... please how much is minimum wage in Saudi Arabia? That should be the basis for comparison.

Compare Corruption of Both Countries that will now make Sence

It also makes no sense for the standard of living to be lower in Nigeria than Saudi Arabia..... among other things.

So if Nigeria's oil price is lower than that of Saudi what will happen? Saudi shouldn't be the yardstick to making Nigerians happy

And why?.....if I may ask!

This man no get sense again, always talking from his a*us

THIS OLD FULANI COW SHOULD ALSO COMPARE NIGERIA MINIMUM WAGE TO THAT OF SAUDI ARABIA

What you should ask yourself - is the minimum wage in both countries comparable? If so then your argument can suffice. If not, then you need to think again.

MBuhari What's the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia? Our leaders have failed us.

While this sentiment seems quite rational, it is also my premise that Mr Gen president is out of touch with the realities of both countries. Saudi can hike prices of petrol and sell to their citizens for a profit and it would be fine economically with them

What is the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia. And do their citizens rely on generators to power their homes or businesses?

Did Saudi Arabia importing finished PMS?What's the Standard of living of citizenry in Saudi compare to Naija?

600 years of the kinda hardship Nigerians face to all those that sold this man to us for personal gains, cunningly and deceitfully, infact, 6000 years!!! Useless people!!!

Isorite

Buhari's administration and their useless ideologies, useless statements. You picked out the fuel price their and left their minimum wage, the state of their nation, citizens, health care and many others. nigeria60anduseless

Ode president

What is the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia? Is their economy this bad? What are the basis of comparison?

Since when? Because prior to 2015 what Buhari and APC keep telling us was that our pump price is the highest in the world. He told us that subsidy is a scam but today it is the best decision... Nigerians deserves apologies from Buhari and APC.

So Nigeria now wants to compare himself to Saudi Arabia? Wonderment!

Oh! That means we could buy fuel even at the 45/litre you initially promised but y'all won't just let it be. This just showed that they all did this INTENTIONALLY! They drove us here DELIBERATELY. They're eating up the future of this country PURPOSEFULLY!

Na d people wey vote u I de blame..

So must we be the worst? even if they can’t see that those countries are way better than us in every criteria MUST WE BE THE WORST?

Not the same standard of living Mr Buhari. The person who wrote that speech is mad! 😡

You mean the the new buhari

Does he understand what he is saying at all. MBuhari sack who ever wrote your speech

What an unfortunate country we find out selves with brainless leadership

MBuhari my dear I know you are older than my father....but truth be told you are the worst president ever....I told my father never to suppose you but he did....after your python dance in SE, where you killed his only brother only son....he understood that I was right

What measures have the Saudi Governemnt put in place for its citizens? Like how much is their minimum wage first?

You can pass the IELTS exam in flying colours and get a permanent residency to Canada. DM for details on the link to the high score formula for passing the IELTS exam

Shocking. Repugnant. Disgraceful.

is this man being serious right now🤨

Oil has been a curse to us as a Nation instead of being a blessing. I have not seen the impact of Oil on us a citizen as an Oil producing nation?

Baba the youth are angry, make you watch wetin you go say o

Where did they see this man self

You're comparing the oil prices when naira is N460/$. If naira had value the Saudi oil would have definitely been cheaper than N168.

Why ooo make baba come enlighten us on why we should suffer of our resources

Saudi Arabia minimum wage is d salary of some professors in Nigeria

This man na Cow 🐄

What do you expect from my own president before.., You no this country is also saudi arabia also., nigeria at 60.. Lmfao baba better wake up before it is finished, becasue its late already

With due respect this man is not worthy to be a president! Nothing in the speech, only promises! Since 2015 promises that will not be fulfilled even at the eve of May 2023.

Who are his handlers? Are they jokers and comedians? Compare the state of infrastructure, security to life and property between Nigeria and Saudi Arabia rather cost of fuel.

This is a smartly dull assertion. What's the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia? Can you compare standard of living in Saudi Arabia to the calamity we have here

Nice speech Bubu... But stop making promises you can't keep. Ain't nobody got time for that.

This man know good ooooooo Nigeria dey suffer u won increase fuel price again

God punish the devil

Y are we living a life of comparison or are we sharing same President elect ?

Omg 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲 Who wrote his speech?

But he forgot to mention that the minimum wage in Saudi is R3,000 which is equal to N305,126. Pay N305,126 as Salary and We’ll pay N168.

Sometimes comparison isn't a good thing. The economy in Saudi makes it favourable for the citizens to buy petrol even if the current price is doubled. That's not the case in Nigeria.

But it makes sense for Nigeria to be so corrupt, nepotic, insecure, and deficient in infrastructures.

Oga just pack and go we are tired of your govt.

Baba we hear you. Let start with money 1Saudi Riyal=101.71 in black market is 103.92, let me show you road and city of the both county. Before PMB open his 👄 well it make no sense for a president of Nigeria to talk anyhow.

The pandemic started in Nigeria in 2015

You are mad MBuhari senseless goat

Now what he Mr president said does it have sensewhy won't it be cheapdon't we have abundant oil here?our politicians just like to give hardship to its citizens......his statement is barbaric abeg

When comparing, factor in standard of living. That makes more sense.

So if oil is cheaper in Nigeria, your name will change abi?

There no basis for comparison here. Standard of Living is not the same; Cost of Living not the same; The Government level of Commitments and sincerity is not the same. We can be cheaper in oil at least 😀🙏

Can you compare our economy, our currency, our oil?

What an unfortunate statement,whoever put this speech together 4 u MBuhari just set u up against ever frustrated n annoyed Nigerian,2 even hate u more,it's now obvious that our politicians just believ Nigerians must never enjoy this country,sufffering should be the Nigerian ways

Lol ok

Wtf is this one saying?

Really 😥

It makes no sense to have a nepotic, tribalistic, divisive and sectionalistic government in Nigeria than Saudi Arabia.

Do you provide what Saudi Arabia make available for their citizens! The citizen of that country can avoid it because their make their life better! This is not the case of this country Mr. President

you are a disgrace for reporting this kind of story, you know the man is ageing shey you too are ageing ni? Just asking ni oh

Is buhari really saying all these rubbish?

What this fulani government does is to draw negative comparison from different countries of the world to justify their claulessness and evil plans for Nigeria. What do i know sef?

Minimum wage in Saudi Arabia is 3000 riyal, which is approximately 300,000 naira. Mr president please stop embarassing us, do your research before coming out to spew rubbish

Buhari is a corona virus itself .. very dull..!

Is this one president. Check Biden and trump. Those guys are just the same age level as u but so damn damn good. President buhari is worst

It makes no sense for MINIMUM WAGE to be cheaper in Nigeria than Saudi. Awon oloshi.

And it also makes no sense for u to betray us...

Saudi should be cheaper but mind u the amenities are there to show what do u have to justify the high prices

Eskis sa! Minimum wage in Saudi Arabia is $800 while it is $67 here and even that $67 has not been fully implemented.

This man called Buhari needs to be put in rehab, I guess the drugs he uses for his sickness is being abused by him, is Nigeria as a country in any form near Saudi Arabia talking of anything that concerns anything country🤦? What a disrespectful speech to the people of the land.

Senseless comment from a sterile president.

Abeg y e be say diz man dey always complicate matter with his response.

But this Saudi Arabia once seek help from Nigeria Which Nigeria gave them one aeroplane But now they are much much better than Nigeria. Yet comparing is the only talk

Ok we see you Bros 👏

This man is really a fool for making comparison. Look at where Ghana is right now. You are here going for to Saudi Arabia . dream 5050. Shame on Nigerian government and the masses at large

President wet mumu. How much is the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia?

Definitely makes no sense! However, that was what u PROMISED, 'N40/L' Jokes on u bro. Nothing is even working. I will never 4give this govt.

MBuhari but it makes sense that the size and the operating budget of Nigerian government are bigger than what some western countries have? The civil service and govt parastatals are too big yet can’t produce output/decisions that make Nigeria better. You can’t benchmark failure.

Mr p if u DNT have anything to say better no say anything plz before Nigerians stone you

And someone wrote this speech for Mr President. That person must be wicked. How could you do one sided comparison. Where is that done. Now the whole social media is agog with the stupidity of this speech. So so said

What a statement!!!! It's like saying'it makes no sense for Nigeria to be a great country' 🙄🙄

Is nigeria that country u mentioned or there economy the same as the country u ruling in.. Man pls ur point is out of the way.. If u want to look for ways to take more money from us... Look for another way... The thing is youth are not fighting for what its there's.. Wake up call

This man? When will you learn to talk to us? Does Saudi Arabia import fuel? Tueh!

Who is thinking what I am thinking... Next level fuel pump price 200

It makes no sense for standard of living to be higher in Saudi Arabia than in Nigeria.

And it also make sense for Saudi Arabia to be more developed than Nigeria?

Maybe he's intoxicated or he's talking under the influence of alcohol. There is no sense in that,is our minimum wage the same?

One of the results of voting an aged man with grey hair to power. They reason negatively

But does it make sense that we have bad government that can’t fix Road, good school, unemployment, insecurity, bad health care system, killings of innocent citizens, witch-hunt, free of speech at 5m, No electricity, no water, no housing etc. why not compare all wit Saudi Arabia

🤒

Rubbish talk

Abi o?

Our Dear President.We are not please with your written Speech.We need the direct speech from the deep part of your heart to us.Your originality is what matter to us.God Bless Nigeria.

Yes, just as it makes no sense for Nigeria to have lower minimum wage than saudi

Nonsense

I guessed his advisers are also as old as he is,they can't tell him to be silent for now. Shame unto them,failed govt. Let them get closer to grassroot and feel the hardship caused by the increase in pump price.

Mr. President why yLare you always insulting us?

May evil, pain, hardship and suffering never depart from the homes of those who still support one useless nigeria

It Makes No Sense How u r Still President.. No Sense at all. Worst Pandemic to hit Nig Since 2015.

It make no sense for u to spill out Nonsense 🤦

All those shouting Sai Baba in the last election Happy independence 😂 Na wetin una put us into be this

Sir it's good to consider their minimum wages As well...!

WTF... The president is clearly derailed! He should rather be saying 'Nigerians be served the same minimum wage as Saudi' or 'Nigerians shouldn't live at lower standards to Saudi'.. It's a damn pity! God save Nigeria..

Here we go again... inconsequential comparison...

we're not Independent in Nigeria There's hardship in Nigeria, No Jobs for graduate & youth, There's killings almost everywhere & every week and no arrest of the Fulani Herdsmen, They're giving Boko Haram Amneisty, give them good treatment and forget about law abiding citizens

Such a foolish man

It makes no sense to have light one day of the week and darkness the rest.

This is total madness, we need to check this man brain, am sure it working well.

I blame GEJonathan for handing over power to this man..... Nigerians would have preferred that blood shed than this suffering

Do Mr President thinks everyone is gullible. What is the GDP and other economic index in tandem to self refining capacity of Nigeria and Saudi Arabia. Our present economy status cannot make Nigerians to be able afford it. This is what we get from NEPA certificate.

we have been scammed 🤕

Our president went mad again. Can you tell us the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia, how about their unemployment rate, how about their educational sector, health, economy and social welfare. PMB remains a misfit in Aso Rock.

It makes no sense to pay 30,000 in Nigeria as minimum wage....... Saudi Arabia have constant electricity check their minimum wage too ....

It's as if no one cares but be rest assure that everybody is watching and getting more angry each day. And it will take a spark to set it all ablaze

NAIRA HAS DEPRECIATED SO MUCH THAT IT APPEARS FUEL IS CHEAPER IN NIGERIA... CAN U SELL A LITRE OF FUEL $159 IN US? VERY SOON THEY WILL INCREASE IT AGAIN AND TELL U IT'S CHEAPER; IS BECAUSE NAIRA IS DEPRECIATING EVEY NOW AND THEN... SIMPLE COMMON SENSE.

True. Viz a viz population

Just imagine what a president is saying

He (your president) says what he likes because no one dares him. If you do, he will send his clowns ( DSS, SARS, POLICE, etc) after you. If not, tell how a man in his right senses will come out to vomit this thrash. Well, what does he know! He says what he’s been told. Ndi ara!!!

See Yanis 😂

Someone needs to lecture this man.

Why exactly? Is ours multipurpose?

Dead brain can’t reason well...imagine comparing Saudi Arabia to Nigeria lol 😂

Does it make sense that in Saudi Arabia, Minimum wage is SAR 5300 (N539, 000) but N30, 000 in Nigeria ? Does it make sense that in Saudi Arabia, Education free but nothing to show in Nigeria? Does it make sense that in Saudi Arabia, health care is free & not here? NigeriaAt60

And the wages and salaries?....

It make no sense to compare Nigeria to Saudi Arabia in this context in the first place. In fact, it makes absolutely no sense to av u as the President of this country. But i blame u not but those who were blind but thought they could see, who voted u in. Now, they can see

What do you expect from an incompetent president.

Don't known what he means by that statement but one thing I agree is and am happy is finally we don't pay for subsidy again

What's the average income of Saudi Arabian citizens and how functional are its refineries?And what's the level of trust between the leaders and the led in Saudi Arabia compare to Nigeria?

When you juxtapose the living conditions of the 2 countries then it makes no sense for fuel price to be expensive in a country that has a whole lot of her population living in abject poverty

It makes no sense at all having him as our president.

Pls is this the man we all voted for ?

This guys is the biggest problem Nigeria are having Now......clown🤡🤡

It makes no sense, for a man with no sense to say this.

Abeg how much is minimum wage in Saudi Arabia and how much is our minimum wage..😏😏

Does it make sense Saudi Arabia have light 24/7 uninterrupted but Nigeria doesn't MBuhari

Failed leadership

This mad man needs cane

Everyone ahould brace up for impact.... It makes no sense oo

Oh so we can compare ourselves to Saudi when it comes to fuel price? Okay o

Pls don't wish me happy independent oooo 🙁🙁🙁

Nigeria at 60 Fuel is 160 Are you the president of Saudi Arabia or Nigeria🙄🙄🙄 Copy copy too much😥

It makes no sense that you're a president of a country like Nigeria

This is really not balance at all. Comparing Saudi Arabia to Nigeria.

It makes no sense for Nigerians not to be secured in Nigeria as Chadians and Saudi Arabians are in their own countries. - comparing Nigeria to other countries is a very low stance, he was just embracing his failure as a president

At the age of 60, is Nigeria really independent?

Is minimum wage in Nigeria and Saudi Arabia the same?

It makes no sense for lives to be brutal in Nigeria than in Saudi Arabia

But in 2012 you did not se it that way? What has changed now sir? or saudi Arabia have now change their name?

So some of you left your morning rest and decided to listen to the president's recitation. I have since moved on with my disappointed interest in this government. Never a fan though

supabara E B Things!!!!

Now I know we have a dunce for a president

I don't know why his comparing our slow country to the country the fast raising country...all we need is Restructuring simple.

Fuck shit

Sometimes I am so disappointed on whoever writes the President's speech.

Edakun, why is it that when someone gets old they become children again? These countries that MBuhari is comparing us with oil-wise, is it difficult to get 500 there like it is to get in Nigeria? If its easier to get it there then oil can be even 300

Hear Mr President.

Buhari has kill Nigeria 🇳🇬 🤣 🤣 🤣

Minimum wage in Saudi Arabia is 3000 saudi riyal = 305,139.46 Nigerian Naira. Minimum wage in Nigeria is N30,000 = 294 Saudi Riyal. (N30,000 not fully implement) Let no one tell me nonsense!

Why

Why will you devalue the Naira, That's where the problems come, Even 161 per litre is still cheap, devaluation of Naira is the cause of all this problem

We know what and who doesn't make sense.

60 years with no freedom 💯 Kuku kill me

Its clear Bubu you didn't read the speech on your own to understand before coming on air. It doesn't make sense that you're comparing Saudi Arabia to Nigeria

To be sincere that man is really a foolish man

Mr president is not sure of what he is saying when we are mostly known for oil production. Kukuma use oil and kill us since you want to increase everything. Pesin no fit buy something in this country again chaiiii.

This comment from the world most stupid President MBuhari Have Nigeria been able to provide basic amenities and a quality standard of living for their citizens just like Saudi Arabia have done?

Make I no talk anything. Cos if I talk, I fit over talk.

It makes no sense for be lower in Nigeria than Saudi Arabia.

This is hate speech.

Comparing 305,000 minimum wage to 30,000k I am tired Nigeria NigeriaAt60 NIGERIA60RisingTogether

Did Saudi av petrol like Nigeria MBuhari ProfOsinbajo can't U see how Saudi re taking good care of their citizens they re paying their University student 100k every month from primary to university school is free so uncle MBuhari what re U talking about what nonsense is that

Eleribu sombori. Yepa. I pray my keypad will not put me in trouble o. I don't even understand what I typed.🙄

Why can't he compare the comfortable live provided by government of Saudi Arabia to his people to Nigerians dieing of hardship created by his government , nonsense

Judge for yourself

What a useless statement

Comparing Nigeria and Saudi Arabia is not balance. They're far ahead of us in infrastructure, education and health, infact, their minimum wage permit their citizens to have the purchasing power as compared to Nigerians.

You see so for what we celebrate dan Allah

Why always the comparison with Saudi Arabia tho? Why not compare with other African countries doing well?

exactly boss !! tell them.. a country that has minimum wage 10 times ours should have cheaper oil than us ..it’s completely appropriate...you are a very wise man, i stan

Please help me I wanna leave this damn country! Our currency is the weakest in west Africa 1 naira can't even buy anything What type of country is this? Please who knows how I can leave this country I'll do anything even if na to pack shit I go pack am I just wan commot 😭😭...

Who wrote this for mr president and it's like they are all can you compare saudi arabia with nigeria,they are doing far better than us so apologize to nigerians

Pls how much is 1 Saudi riyal to naira, that baba is comparing Saudi to Nigeria...

What is the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia and its human development index?

If you are part of Buhari regime, a Fulani Herdsman, top echelon member of ruling APC, governors and their cabinet members, legislators (both federal and state), happyindependenceday! The rest of Nigeria, go and take your October1st greetings from the dustbin. ☹️NigeriaAt60

May God punish MBuhari. What is the minimum wage in Saudi Arabia? How is there economy.

It Makes No Sense For Oil To Be Cheaper In Nigeria Than Saudi Arabia – Buhari. This man is a devil sent from hell... Can GEJ say this rubbish to Nigerians? Nigeria60AndUseless NotYetIndependent

Nigerians in diaspora do not realize how annoying it is to watch them celebrate a country that doesn’t function.

Are sure you this Man is normal?

It makes no sense for minimum wage in Saudi Arabia to 300,000 and in Nigeria can't pay even 50,000. UNAM IKOT

Do this man have any formal education Do he have any form of knowledge in economics Is he really OK They don't learn positive things wasting our money travelling here and there

Are you kidding me right now?

But it makes sense for our minimum wage to be the lowest in the world!! Common!!!! sunrisedailynow

Ask him MBuhari what did he do for the nigerians in the fight of covid-19: we they locked us in our house?

Channel Television.... 😁😁😁😁

Ifb

It is such a disgrace when the president made this speech. Even if Saudi Arabia fix their oil price to 500 they still capable to keep enjoying the good life,what do we have in Nigeria? How much do the average person earn every month? Shame at 60

They only compare wen it favors their extravagant lifestyle
