N100 BEING STOLEN FROM EVERY LITRE OF KEROSENE BY PDP----=-Oshiomhole said.

On tuesday, the Edo state Governor accused the ruling party PDP of stealing N100 from every kerosene sold in this country. He said that Krerosene suppose to be sold at the rate of N50 per liter but, still the Federal government go ahead to sell it at the rate of N150 per liter making it dificult for the Nigerians to have access to their own natural resources. According to him, right now a liter of Kerosene is being sold at N150 to N160 per liter in many places in Nigeria.
  He went further to say that;
             “The man who has a shop must close by 6 pm. If he operates beyond 6pm, he must put on a generator, and buy petrol or diesel. For 16 years, the PDP can’t give us light. But if they leave us in peace even in the dark, it will be bad enough but for them, that is not bad enough.”

“From Otuoke to Benin City, to Lagos, to Ekpoma, to Iyahmo, to Sokoto, kerosene is now between N150 and N160 per litre. For every N150 you spend in buying a litre of kerosene, the PDP steals N100 because in the books of the NNPC, they have it on records that kerosene is N50 per litre.”

Oshiomhole also commended the quality of the defectors, who he described as knowledgeable.

He further said that, “Today is not just the fact of the huge number in this hall but it is also about the quality of the brains that have now join us; and in a world that is knowledge-driven, it is only the party that can parade the best brains that can drive the sustainable change that Nigeria is currently battling with in order to bail our country from its present political quagmire.”

The governor also likened the ruling party to “an impotent man.”
