The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC says the latest increase in petrol pump price from N121.50 to N143.80, might just be the last straw that would break the camel’s back.
In a statement signed by the NLC President, Ayuba Wabba, the labour demanded that the Federal Government reverts to the old price of petroleum especially given the fact that price of crude oil in the international market has only slightly increased from the previous price before the so-called downward review was announced two months ago.
The NLC said it is also very embarrassing that the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency, PPPRA boss, Saidu Abubakar, while trying to defend the indefensible, appeared to be out of sorts and ready to clutch at any available straws to sell his “ice block merchandise” to “Eskimos”.
The Labour said apart from contradicting himself that PPPRA is still trying to regulate a deregulated product through “advisories”, the agency went on to exert more nails on the coffin of his own polemics when he argued that the PPPRA was just like the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, and the National Insurance Commission, NAICOM, that would always act to protect the public interest.
The NLC insisted that it is unfortunate that Mr Abdulkadir did not even feign pretence that the government has abdicated its responsibility to protect Nigerians from the cut-throat tendencies of neoliberal market forces. Contrary to the provisions of Chapter 2 of the 1999 Constitution, the PPPRA claimed that the abdication is not ‘total’.
The Nigerian Labour said when the statement by the PPPRA is juxtaposed with the recent killer electricity charges unveiled by the Electricity Distribution Companies, DISCOs, Nigerians cannot help but feel the heat of a potent threat to run millions of Nigerians under.
It hinted that it is even worse that this is coming at a time when the people are living on the precipice of the Covid-19, noting that the economic benefits of the so-called “downward” review was hardly enjoyed by ordinary Nigerians who were mostly indoors and sadly just as the lockdown is being eased out and as soon as the inter-state travel ban was lifted, the government decided to hike petrol price.
The NLC warned that the Nigerian people and workers are forced to interpret this move as grand mischief and deceit and there is no way Nigerians would accept a situation where they are charged international rates for a product which Nigeria is the sixth-largest producer in the world.
It said the extra costs that the PPPRA wants Nigerians to pay in order to promote “growth” and “investment” are actually the cost of profits made by countries that Nigeria ship her crude oil to, the cost of sea freight of the refined products, the cost of demurrage at the seaports when the refined products arrive, the cost of the frequent devaluation of the national currency, and the cost of official corruption by gatekeepers managing the downstream petroleum sub-sector.
thank you.

Aparatos de equilibrado: clave para el desempeno uniforme y eficiente de las equipos.
En el campo de la tecnologia actual, donde la efectividad y la estabilidad del dispositivo son de suma significancia, los dispositivos de ajuste cumplen un funcion vital. Estos dispositivos adaptados estan creados para calibrar y asegurar componentes dinamicas, ya sea en equipamiento manufacturera, transportes de transporte o incluso en electrodomesticos de uso diario.
Para los profesionales en mantenimiento de sistemas y los tecnicos, operar con sistemas de ajuste es fundamental para asegurar el rendimiento fluido y fiable de cualquier mecanismo dinamico. Gracias a estas alternativas modernas avanzadas, es posible reducir considerablemente las vibraciones, el estruendo y la tension sobre los soportes, mejorando la duracion de piezas caros.
Igualmente relevante es el funcion que cumplen los dispositivos de ajuste en la soporte al consumidor. El ayuda tecnico y el soporte permanente empleando estos aparatos permiten proporcionar soluciones de gran excelencia, elevando la bienestar de los compradores.
Para los responsables de empresas, la financiamiento en unidades de equilibrado y dispositivos puede ser fundamental para optimizar la eficiencia y desempeno de sus equipos. Esto es sobre todo relevante para los empresarios que gestionan reducidas y intermedias emprendimientos, donde cada detalle importa.
Ademas, los sistemas de balanceo tienen una extensa implementacion en el ambito de la prevencion y el control de estandar. Facilitan encontrar potenciales problemas, impidiendo intervenciones caras y problemas a los sistemas. Incluso, los datos extraidos de estos aparatos pueden emplearse para optimizar sistemas y aumentar la presencia en buscadores de busqueda.
Las campos de utilizacion de los dispositivos de ajuste incluyen variadas ramas, desde la manufactura de ciclos hasta el seguimiento ecologico. No afecta si se trata de extensas producciones productivas o limitados talleres domesticos, los sistemas de calibracion son necesarios para promover un operacion efectivo y sin presencia de interrupciones.
