Star actor Desmond Elliot has also lent his voice against fuel subsidy removal just like other concerned Nigerians have done since the government took the decision.

According to the talented actor,the action is only meant to inflict untold hardship on the innocent masses.

He took to his Twitter page to say;We have lost everything we met on the land. Cocoa, palm oil, groundnuts, cotton, cashew and rubber have been forgotten and are better produced by nations who came to learn from us. We have lost our moral compass, our society is fractured, our statehood is threatened. Our citizens are in all prisons around the world. Some of them prefer foreign prisons to coming back to Nigeria. Our passport is treated with disdain everywhere you present it. Why should our government be this big with special advisers on cassava and beans affairs? Do we need 36 ministers? Why would our president spend close to a billion on food while close to eighty percent live on less than a dollar a day? Why should he budget a billion for generators and diesel when he is urging us to believe in his power sector reform? Why does our President need 6 private jets? Why should our politicians keep their salaries when Obama slashed his? Why should we continue to be wasteful when the handwriting on the wall says “danger”? Why should we believe the government when it says the subsidy gain will be properly reinvested. . Bad leadership and coruption must stop.

In my personal opinion,the voice of the people is the voice of God. I think President Goodluck Jonathan needs to retrace his steps on the subsidy removal before things get out of hand!!!

President Jonathan earns N14 million annually with practically everything at his beck and call,including three new Presidential jets(which set Nigeria back by N21 billion).

In the 2012 budget,almost N1 billion is allocated to food for the President and Vice.That is N900,000 per meal(breakfast,lunch and dinner,and snacks in between),at a total of N2.7 million per day.

In the 2012 budget,the Presidency will be spending all of N90 million on pots and pans,plates and cutlery ! N90 million !!

The Vice President's official residence is being constructed for about N90 million.

And providing power for Aso Rock Villa,Abuja(the office and abode of the President) will cost Nigeria an arm and a leg.The federal government is fueling generators with N1.3 billion in 2012 budget!

Lampooned and snickered at across the globe as the most expensive democracy known to mankind,recurrent expenditure is 72 per cent of the N4.749 trillion budget of 2012.

Not ready to sacrifice any of these perks,allowances and salary(except a laughable 25 percent of basic salary),the masses are upset,angry and enraged that punishing them with unbearable increment in cost of petrol(from N65 per litre to over N138) is unjusticiable.

Oga Goodluck should start the sacrifice he fervently enjoins Nigerians to endure…by taking a huge salary cut,shunning the extravagance and profligacy that engulf his office,and in addition demand that members of his cabinet,National Assembly and government's top brass should follow his footsteps.

There has been gradual fuel increment over the years but yet the basic necessities of life are not available. There are no pipe borne water, no electricity, no good roads, no functional healthcare facilities, no good schools etc.

Enough is Enough.

Nigerians can't go on like this anymore living like fools .
