NATIONAL DEBT: Ignorance Powered Rhetoric Made By APC? by Nobody: 12:10pm On May 25, 2015 |
FACT 1:Nigeria’s overall debt is comprised of external and domestic debts. Our total debt stock is $63.7b with $21.8 billion incurred under the outgoing government of President Goodluck Jonathan. $18 billion is the domestic component and $3.7 billion external component of Jonathan era debts.. FACT 2: As at August 2006, Nigeria’s foreign and domestic debts amounted to US$3.5 billion and US $13.8 billion respectively – a total of US$17.3 billion or 11.8% of GDP. In effect Jonathan and state governors added $3.7b to our external debts while the states and Federal government added $18.1b to our domestic debts in 5 years. Obasanjo borrowed from the domestic market too and did not hand over a debt free country as wrongly believed by some so called "experts" and "analysts". FACT 3: The key noticeable change in Nigeria’s indebtedness in recent years has been the growth of domestic debt. This involves local borrowing by states and federal govt to fund projects and salaries. Do you know that in 2010 when you clapped for 53% salary increase the govt borrowed to fund it? Some of us said no then and you said yes without thinking it through. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala was not even the minister when that decision was made but rather it was Olusegun Aganga that was in charge and APC's Adam Oshiomole supported it without a care on the effect on our economy and debt profile. Same you that supported the jumbo rubbish is now crying "high debt" and "economic woes". Uwa gi ntooo to unfounded populism that does not even recognize that the money we are wasting on Boko Haram is impacting our economy. FACT 4; In February 2015 alone $403m foreign loans were approved for Lagos, Rivers, Ogun, Osun. All of them are APC states. So you think that only Federal Govt borrows from abroad? Does anyone still remember the noise made by Rivers Amaechi over a foreign loan he wanted for water project? When you were supporting him did you know he was adding to our foreign debts? Same way he and NGF compelled Finance minister to share excess crude funds and are now crying wolf over ECA. Did you protest when they asked for ECA to be shared instead of saved? Lekwa uwa gi na ignorance. FACT 5: All the heavily indebted states in domestic terms are APC states aside from Akwa Ibom. States like Kano, Rivers and Lagos are the heaviest borrowers from the domestic market and also foreign markets whereas states like Abia owe the least. Even then APC states like Osun owe the highest number of months in salary arrears whereas Anambra is not owing kobo in salaries Yet na APC make noise pass while owing, in some instance 13 months salary of teachers and 8 months of civil servants salary even while answering "Ogbeni". Okay o.. - Written by John Okiyi Kalu ................................................. Can someone make these facts available to APC leaders, Obasanjo and Yemi Osibanjo? cc: Lalasticlala |

Skewed analysis to support your position. The unanswered question is, what did GEJ do with the FG's share of the ECA having sold crude oil for over $100 per barrel on the average for more than four years? The fact that the economy has collapsed under GEJ, NOI and Diezani cannot be justified with whatever you have written here. Got not much time now. |

Nigeria government at all level are reckless. Huge debt both domestic and foreign with absolutely nothing to show for it. Can the useless governors give us account of all the federal allocation during the oil boom? Can they account for all the SURE-P allocations collected and what investment was done with it? Nigeria is bleeding under bad leadership across board and all our leaders need to be sent to jail, including that useless Local Government Chairman. Bunch of criminals and selfish element.

Shameles PDP e-rats Go to www.dmo.gov.ng and check details of FGN domestic debts. As at March 31st 2015, it stood at 43 Billion Dollars and accounting for 79.9% of total domestic debt of the country. Total external debts was not categorized in that report. What more will I say, a federal govt who could incure 79% of total domestic debt is not fit to live. Jonathan came, He saw and he squandered !!! |
