TOPIC: SPIRITUAL EYES II MEMORISE :  Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.  Psalm 119:18 READ :  2 Kings 6:15-23  15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do? 16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. 17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha. 18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness.

BREAKING: NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT BOW TO PRESSURE: REDUCES FUEL PUMP PRICE

Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke,
The Nigerian government seemed to have yielded to pressure or could it be another campaign strategy by announcing a reduction in the fuel price of petrol from N97 per litre to N87 per litre.
The announcement was made public by the Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke, at a press conference at the presidential villa, Abuja, on Sunday. She said the new price regime would take effect at midnight Sunday.

The Minister said the N10 reduction in fuel price was a reflection of the price of crude oil prices in the international market.The Petroleum Product Pricing Regulatory Agency [PPPRA] and the Department of Petroleum Resources [DPR] have been asked to enforce strict compliance with the new pricing regime as soon as it becomes effective, the minister said.
 
The new measure is a reversal of government’s policy on the matter. The Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, had insisted on December 17 that Nigeria would not reduce the pump price of fuel despite falling oil prices at the international market, until the revenue crisis occasioned by the dwindling oil rates is over. one is therefore tempted to ask what might have informed the latest U-turn in government's decision.
