By Araba, Olawale Enifenilanfe:   According to research conducted by the Nigeria Institute Of Journalism (NIJ) Part-Time Student, determination was found to be the most significant predictor of academic success, surpassing intelligence and talent. This emphasizes the importance of perseverance and grit in achieving academic goals and succeeding in one’s chosen field. Determination is defined as” the ability to keep trying”, and to keep moving towards a goal, no matter what. It is in getting back up no matter how many times we fall. People who have mastered determination are not necessarily people who have never failed, or even those who have failed many times. People with determination are those who get up and keep going, who learn from what went wrong and adjust course, and who believe in themselves despite all obstacles.

​NNPC LTD NATIONWIDE PMS PUMP PRICES IS ILLEGAL!

The new pricing template released by the NNPC Ltd is illegal to the extent that both the 2023 Appropriation Act and the former PMB's Federal Government through the former Hon. Minister of Finance approved that the fuel subsidy removal policy is to come into effect on June 31st, 2023 as provided for in the 2023 Appropriation Act.  Hence, what is going on at the moment in this regard is illegal. Both the NNPC Ltd and the downstream regulator are in defiance of the Appropriation Act and directive of the Federal Ministry of Finance on this matter.  Furthermore, the new pricing template released by the NNPC Ltd is a mere allocative pricing regime and not free market competitive supply and demand driven pricing regime! The new pricing regime or template defies the basic and fundamental principles of a deregulated pricing regime as championed by the government, the NNPC Ltd and private market operators in the industry!! And, by the way, it is not the statutory responsibility of

Edited By Araba, Olawale Enifenilanfe A major issue of concern to the average Nigerian today is the issue of petroleum products. “The concern centers on two major points”:  First, is the availability of the products while the second point of concern is the question of pricing. It is a known fact that Nigeria's economy centers on petroleum because it is the major source of foreign exchange and also drives a lot of productive activities. This is why once anything touches the availability of petrol and diesel, the whole economy begins to shake. Both workers and self-employed individuals are not able to move freely about. Even schoolchildren are forced to stay at home or forced to through the nose to be able to move from one place to another. Aside from these, machines and other heavy-duty vehicles which depend on the twin brothers of petrol and diesel are also severely affected. It is for the above reasons that one must join a voice in the current discussion surrounding
