Boss13: From your post it is pretty obvious that you dony know what you're talking about. You first mentioned the SURE-P programme. Do you even know how the programme came about in the first place OR the whole idea behind it? of course you dont, else you wouldve known that funds from the sure-p used in the massive rehabilitation of our transport infrasture and inveatment in our primary health care services is actually from savings from the partial Termination of the Fuel subsidy programme by the GEJ administration. Oh btw, you do know that it was the GEJ administration via NOI and Sanusi that exposed the rot in the same Fuel subsidy programme and pushed for its outright termination while the opposition and people like you kicked against it, right? So please get you.facts straight. 1 Like 1 Share |

AhmedMustapha:Nope she's not a practical economists - she is an economics lecturer* and lecturers teach based on books, they don't live outside the box- everything is confined to certain rules and principles - where as psychology of human behaviour is more important in balancing economic fundamentals - she is one of the worst products to ever be produced as a minister of finance in nigeria* she can only fit into the world bank as an MD - and can't even run as president because it entails measuring psychological elements as against what the MD would propose. 1 Like |

philips70: Care to explain the "economic mess"? Last i checked, the.economy ia still the largest in Africa, still grows at 6% + rate, is still a choice destination for FDI, is slowly being diversified with sectors like agriculture now accounting for a xonaiderable chunk of our foreign exchange earnings with the manufacturing sector on the rise. All these thanks to NOI. But please do tell us about this "mess". |

I can't believe david west can now be talking like an illiterate, can you compare the nigeria under the military rule to the nigeria we have now. What was the value of Naira before General buhari took over from shagari? Even when abacha was looting the hell out of Nigeria, the naira was still very strong in regards to the economy. I will not but ask david west the following question 1. What determine the values of a currency? 2. What was our per capital income then compare to now 3. What is the ratio of our foreign reserve to our currency ratio? I can't but laugh when some people call the respectable "minister for finance" clueless, do you think if she has the capacity to strengthen the naira she wouldn't have done so. If she's that clueless, why the hell is "IMF and World bank under her ass to work for them, if she's that clueless. With the current state of the world economy, only few currency may survive as time goes by. Even the dollars is falling. How do you strengthen the naira when the global oil price is falling? I think david west and some of his supporters are clueless. There is nothing Gen.Buhari can do about the currency except he devaluate the naira instead. Hence, if you frustrate the minister for finance and she went back to work with either world bank or IMF, be ready to be frustrated through her because Nigeria may want to borrow 2 Likes 1 Share |

Iweala gave some good advise. We do need to monitor how state governments manage the allocation, we also need to save more money in the excess crude account. We also need to build stronger institutions to fight corruption. We also need to generate more revenue. |

ocelot2006: [b]In a country of 170M people only a negligible percentage could relate with these line of yours. Suffice it to say very few are knowledgable in financial matters. Same goes for people even in advanced countries. The only indices these category of people understand are jobs, the buying power of their currency, food on their table, affordable decent housing for all and life expectancy amongst others. With the reality on ground these indices are in sharp contrast with the sermon you just preached. Suffice it to say your sermon on the mount is only evident in the lives of politicians who have looted and appropriated huge funds to themselves and voodoo economists like NOI. For the common man on the streets there is weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth. Nigerians are still living on less than $2 a day and minimum wage is still N18,000 when the exchange of the Naira to the dollar is 199/$. By the way hope you are not one of the happy politicians who do not believe times are hard in Nigeria just because they are living in affluence?[/b] 4 Likes 1 Share |

Duru1:The alleged attitude levelled against Boss13 is a farce. You are the one withproblem. It is obvious that a toddler would be able to observe that NOI will go down as one of the world's worst economic managers. A pig like her would be hung in saner climes. She woefully damaged Nigeria's economy and the future of coming generations. gej, her boss, was given the silver platter: rising oil prices, mandate of the people, and zero external debt left by OBJ administration. Yet this clueless woman and her boss fumbled the nation to bankruptcy. Say what you may about Buhari, he is definitely not perfect but I doubt he would condone the BS witnessed the last six years. Buhari is known for one thing; his abhorrence for corruption. If Ngozi had maintained this principle and resigned due to endemic corruption, then the nation would be better for it. Your obvious display of ignorance is clearly the malaise plaguing the nation and not Bob13's on point observations. |
