Omooba77:
Owerri – The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, on Monday said he would ensure that the Naira was equal to the dollar in value, if voted into office.
Buhari stated this during the South-East presidential rally of the party at Dan Anyima Stadium, Owerri.

“It is sad that the value of the naira has dropped to more than N230 to one dollar; this does not speak well for the nation’s economy,’’ he said.
He urged the people to vote for APC, noting that he would ensure that corruption was tackled headlong if elected.

Earlier, Gov Rochas Okorocha had urged APC supporters to vote for the party’s candidates at all levels, noting that a vote for Buhari without support to others at the state would amount to nothing.
Okorocha said Buhari would address the problem of electricity, bring back the kidnapped Chibok girls and promote industrial growth.

He said that Buhari was loved by the people in the region and urged them to elect him and other APC candidates during the March 28 and April 11 general elections.

Former governor of Anambra, Mr Chinwoke Mbadinuju and former Minister of Education, Chinwe Obaji, were formally welcomed to the APC at the rally.

The rally was attended by APC supporters from Abia, Ebonyi, Anambra, Enugu and Imo. (NAN)

GMB talk is cheap, are u a magician?!!!

Hmm!! Buhari don become Merlin......

Buhari is running a chairmanship campaign not a presidential one. This Buhari will reduce us to a laughing stock ooo.

seriously,hw are u gonna do dat? seriously,hw are u gonna do dat?

Oh my God' buhari can't win this election APC brought out a wrong person for this election. Buhari doesn't understand the system of demand and supply.

fallout87:
That is one of the stupidest utterances in this election if it is true.

Does this Buhari not understand inflation? He obviously doesn't understand a thing about GDP or the economy...

ur parent must be a thief in Jonathan cabinet, what buhari is telling you is! He will collect all the loot,jail the looters, with the huge sum of the Money? Economy will automatically stable. Get that to ur head, ur parent may go to jail if they are looters.... Stupiidest guy.

My Opinion

Please, Buhari's handlers should give him a script to read from; it's better to read from a well defined, written piece of paper than him attempting to impress the public with his chosen words. The thought of a presidential candidates making such promises beats my imagination, not only does it show deficiency on his part, it's an insult to Nigerians at-large. Biko, call him to order... No more Mitt Romney gaffes..

Gawd of Mexico!!!
Are som nairalanders dis backward?

jmaine:


And you feel removing a few zeroes automatically makes the naira equal to the dollar in terms of purchasing power ?

I was addressing the "it is impossible" part not the rational part.

Princecalm:

There is nothing wrong with his statement. The problem is that the mentality of Nigerians are so low that they believe that a president can make the naira equal to the dollars. if we have the right economic policies like reduction of importation and relying too much on oil.

All those Aboki for Ama hausa go sey No buhari u don't Bleep up, if he turn one dollar to one Naira then those Aboki for Ama hausa go go retirement now. Cus buhari na bad market for them

Princecalm:
This is someone that understands the economy speaking and not the clueless one who keeps Naira unstable.
