TOPIC: LIKE THE DAY OF PENTECOST VII MEMORISE : "Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least, the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them." Acts 5:15 READ : ACTS 1:1-8 (KJV) 1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: 3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: 4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. 5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. 6 When they therefore were come tog...

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.
