When Emefiele placed FX ban on some 41 item§, I agreed with him. But when he moved a step backward to stop receiving dollar from the banks, I disagreed and maintained that it is counter productive. You don't use military style to fix economic mess.

CBN did not have a choice than to do that. The commercial banks decided that on their own and they got CBN to make it official.

Presently, there is over 1billion dollars physical cash in the vaults of banks, that is a non-earning assets and there is no way they can move it out of the country. How do you want the banks to.pay interest on depositors funds that they are not earning anything on?

The only way we can deplete that physical dollar sum is by payments of PTAs and BTAs by banks.

If you have any suggestions on how banks can handle the physical dollars, please share it. This will go along way in arresting the situation.

Desperate situations call for desperate measures.

Even with drop in oil revenue? I laugh. I remember one time an ex-president told workers to prepare for hard times just because he could not control corruption and funds leakages and theft that dwarfed government revenue

Tanoid will come and quote how Jonathan sent the money.

Why not do the maths yourself dude?

$200 million per month= $2.4 billion a year times 4 years= $9.6 billion in 4 years

That's very poor for our country. I don't celebrate mediocrity.


undecided
And that is if things remains as it is...which I doubt.
However little...
Wouldn't that be an increase to our reserve unlike the decrease it witnessed in gej's govt?
That's the Maths I was hoping you'd do.

these can only happen under Sai buhari. that man that use to hoist bowler hat and his wife nearly ruin this country.

this is good news. Though Senators and House of Reps salaries have not been paid since after the elections. NDDC have not received funds from FG, thus, no new projects yet. Multinational companies are waiting for policies from PMB administration before they resume agreed projects.

Wrong narrative and misinformed interpretation.

Unlike Jonathan who SPENT on railways, roads, universities, almajiri schools and ensured the 36 states got their share of the Excess Crude Account, ECA as constitutionally guaranteed for the JOINT owners of the Federation Accounts, Buhari has done NOTHING since May 29 except travel with N2.2 billion to the US and other tourist trips.
1.
The SUBSIDY,that he removed FOR 2YRS WHILE OIL PRICE WAS SELLING ABOVE $100 and now below $50,,,,

2. $5BILLION DEBT INCURRED DURING HIS REGIME,,.,,

3. YARADUA LEFT PETROL PRICE @#65 HE INCREASED IT TO #97,,,, #32 difference for 2yrs..,,,

4.. DEPLETION IN FOREIGN RESERVE NOT INCREMENT DURING HIS REGIME,,,

5.SHARING OF ECA FUNDS AND BUHARI STILL HAD TO BAILOUT SOME STATES FROM NLNG EARNINGS....


YOU NEED TO COMPARE HIS ACHIEVEMENTS WITH ALL THE MONEY HE INCURRED.... Spent On Universities yes thanks to AASU who went on strike for 6(six) Months..
