Where is that datolee guy, I need him here to tackle barcanista objectively. Berem stay away from this thread because figures are being discussed not APCccccccccc.

aguiyi:


The relationship is clear, you are trying so hard to discredit the president who is most favored by the masses for a second term.

Several threads have been opened just to regain the image battered today by datolee, Buhari is not sellable

cellors:
Barcanista , Obiagelli, Abok1, demdem. nice one guys. Figures don't lie. The SaTANists would rather we swallow lies polished with sentiments

If we can be detribalised ,objective and stay off religious sentiments , we sure would have our country back. #fact!
what sense does it make to have a golden opportunity to turn things around and blow it? Having access to more money should translate to DEVELOPMENT and growth ooo. Sharing our common wealth with friends and peers should not be seen as transformation !!!

Hard facts we have everywhere, with the amount of money Jona has had access to, what has been the percentage of his achievements? Any correlation?
Enriching militants isn't national empowerment nah!! Putting the water ways in the hands of touts in order to secure our oyel hasnt even stopped 100,000 barrels of oyel going missing daily sef?

Even datolee agrees in summation, Jona is not the best for us. Anyways, Jona is their brother and he cant do wrong even when it is obvious he should be chastised and sent to otuoke straight!

I responded to your fellow comrade, no intention of Off-Point. [/s]

odave:

Bros, may God bless you jare...OP is working for what he's being paid for. We all know that 1 Barrel is now less than $80 I wonder where d guy see $100 per barrel, as if na only fg get d debt....they are just too blind with hatred to see clearly, telling tthe truth won't kill you

On April 30, Benchmark crude dropped below $100 for the first time in three weeks as oil supplies continued to rise and the unusually cold winter resulted in negative U.S. economic news. Gas was up 14 cents for the month, the most in three years.[142] More Ukraine trouble pushed Benchmark crude above $100 and Brent crude over $108 on May 12,[143] and further problems in Libya helped push Benchmark crude over $102 and Brent crude over $110 by May 15, though negative economic news in the U.S. and an unexpected increase in oil stockpiles pushed Benchmark crude back down temporarily.[144][145] Continued concerns over Ukraine and Libya pushed oil back above $104

In other words, GEJ is an EPIC Failure

donnypool:


but you are saying ObJ is better than GEJ now you are saying they both failed. please stop using obj and ya adua as an exibit, its costing you valuable argument point. buhari as ruled before right. i'll rather you compare buhari vs GEJ because they are from a different party and they are a direct opponent. using PDP to fight PDP, after saying PDP is bad is totally baseless

Its Buhari vs GEJ
not OBJ(pdp) ya adua (PDP) vs GEJ (pdp)

thanks

datolee:


I will probably take the advice of many here and stop debating with you because you certainly do not understand what you are talking about, you are just being aggressive for nothing.

I have given you the reason the depletion of external reserve that in 1 month after SLS left office, it grow by more than $1 billion. If you say that Buhari did well by not devaluing the Naira, please can you tell me how we would have defended the Naira against dollar if not either devaluing or defending with external reserve.

Like I told you from the previous debate, you just take argument everywhere just to win them. What is waste that is in this government that is not in other government? what is the percentage change in expenditures of this government year on year as against the previous governments?

You have no clue of what you are writing, i'm afraid

Opiosko:
U are really working hard spending sleepless nights to earn ur next pay. I wish u could channel such effort to something that's worth it.

fhunn:




Despite all its still a power house!!!

Till another economy surpasses us. Period!

And I can't remember Nigeria being the pow house of Africa during the regime of the previous civilian ex-presidents.

So I think you should applaud GEJ for doing a good thing rather than blaming him for the woe you've brought upon yourself because I frankly believe if you were engaged in looking for ways to make yourself useful you won't have the time to come here and make this useless comment!!!
When people are using their heads to think, you are busy using your as.s to think trying to make sure something sensible comes out not taking into consideration of the fact that when you are thinking with your as.s nothing comes out but a colourful stinking sh'it!!!!!!!!



aaaahhh, I feeel gooood!!!(horrible bosses )

Tag: all useless critics that don't have something worthwhile to do.

The three posters after op are very stup.id. Why attacking the op instead of saying any disagreement they have with the data the op has given us?

You guys are very fooli.sh. Dumb and fooli.sh indeed.

Thank you, but please know that the recession of 2007 started with private sector with government pumping money to save the private sector, by 2011, the effect had gotten to the government sector. Please read here about the five stages of the recession from 2007 to 2011

I ask the same question, was Naira under stress more than it was under OBJ and Yaradua? the answer is yes

Was the external reserve used to defend the Naira, the answer is yes

I will believe my Government except you can provide us any link what other uses the external reserve was used for.

barcanista:
Let us be true to ourselves.
Obasnjo faced Militancy, they blow up oil pipes, kidnap workers and he deployed Military. Yet he saved LOTS of Money and Still managed the debt from $30b to $3 billion

Yar Adua faced similar thing until the Amnesty Program. Yet he saved More Money and managed the debt well.
See this...

Militants blow up oil installation= Nigeria loses Money
Militants Kidnap Oil Workers= Nigeria Loses Oil Money
Oil Coys Pay Ransome= It tells on our tax
Oil Coys cut production= Nigeria loses money
President Obasanjo Spent Money on Military= Just Like Jonathan.
Yet, we had enough in our revenue and almost zero external debt

Demdem:


Damn ur sarcasm and come out plain. I won't bite u, demdem don't.
Should the otuokpe curse continue beyond 2015 or not?

Missy89:

If the debt and the budget grew because naira lost its value (inflation) That cant be factual for a simple reason.
The oil prices rose as well, which means inflation doesn't matter. Lets even say the naira was inflated by 3% every year (this is a huge percentage)

manck2:
For Nigeria obasanjo did not achieve much in govt.
This figures are not correct. I don't think obasanjo left much money.it is more of propaganda
Because Nigeria economy need the USA dollar they have to find way to get it.

AODT:


I must say that am really impressed with all this information. What barcanista is simply saying is that for an administration to have expended so much and have next to nothing to show for, is not the right path to follow to experirence change in Nigeria. GMB is not necessarily the solution we have but certianly not GEJ.
"It is only insane to continue doing the same thing and expect a different result"

I love this bring it on since you have the effrontery. Not building school,water or light constitutes an impeachable
offence.What constitutes an
impeachabe offence by constitution is
security of lives & property. And I think by now you know what should happen to Jona since he cannot secure our lives and properties.

nairaman66:


I am sure you must be referring to the masses in Otuoke! Definitely not the Nigerian masses. Everyone is tired about this "I have no shoes of a man". Conclusively, GEJ is not sellable today nor 2015.. He knows this that's why he bribed a lot of PDP Caucus members to come out as a sole candidate.

He should have signed up for the primaries and see if he would win.. Goon of a president!

jcmaiah:

Jonathan will rule Nigeria till 2019 and no Yoruba or Hausa APC can change that. He may not be the best but he has done what anybody sensible enough should do within these years. You think they are foolish to negotiating those girls relish? This is not something you do in a commando style else lives you want to save will be lost, hence, if u know nothing about human shield keep shut and see things unfold

Soldiers Revolt In Maiduguri Over Inadequate Weaponry And Poor Condition A ngry soldiers from the newly formed 7th Division of the Nigerian Army in Maiduguri today May 14th revolted against their General Officer Commanding, Major General Abubakar Mohammed , shooting sporadically in the air at Maimalari barracks, which is also home to the Artillery Corps, the Ordinance, as well as army signals in Maiduguri, Sahara Reporters reports According to two soldiers who spoke with SR, the soldier became enraged when they saw the bodies of their colleagues ambushed and killed by Boko Haram men in Chibok, Borno state. The angry soldiers immediately started shooting into the air, complaining that their superior have failed to provide them with adequate weaponry with which to fight the war against the better- armed Boko Haram militants. “We the soldiers don’t have the kind of arms and ammunition that [Boko Haram] fighters have. So everyday, they kill our men anyhow, but it is never published in the media,” said one source. The other source also complained that the commanding officers “are too busy ‘eating’ money. And they do not pay our allowances on time. And once [a soldier dies], nobody knows what happens to his allowances again.” The sources also revealed that also that the mutinying soldiers were fed up that their military commanders have not devised a troop rotation system to ensure that those in combat can get some rest before being redeployed to continue the bloody and frustrating war with Boko Haram insurgents. General Mohammed narrowly escaped out of the barracks to an undisclosed location.
