TOPIC: DESTINY DESTROYERS II MEMORISE:  And he said unto them, take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. Luke 12:15 READ : John 12:3-6 & Matthew 26:14-16  3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. 4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him, 5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

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.
