TOPIC: DELIVERANCE FROM CAREER AND ACADEMIC BURDENS MEMORIZE : "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day." Proverbs 4:18 (KJV) READ : Luke 5:1-7 1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. 3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. 7 And they beck...

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.
