OP you are trying very hard to suppress the facts.

- Would Jonathan have been able to take drastic steps to stop his PDP crew from further looting?
- Jonathan was already borrowing to pay salary when oil was selling than it is now, how would that not continue?
- What makes you think that Jonathan could have been able to challenge the PDP cabals? Something he could not even attempt in 6yrs.

Voting out Jonathan was the best thing that ever happened to Nigeria in decades. We will judge President Buhari at the end of his tenure too. For now Buhari has the unwavering support of all well-meaning and patriotic Nigerians. Forget all those miscreants wailing. Their yam-eating scheme is being busted daily, so wailing is understandable.

GEJ would have done better! Better. Better!
The major problem of this country is the parasitic North!
If the North is equally productive and not parasitic on the resources of the south since 1912 and it's romance with militant Islam since danfodiyo era till date, Naija would have been better than England by now.

Nobody want to know how many trillions of oil money is going down the drain everyday since 1954 just to procure PEACE in the North...till date!

What are we even gaining from the Northern part to our overall GDP? Zero!! Big Zero!!!

You are a kid that am sure of. To think if not for corruption, Nigeria would have been better than England is just a kid's talk. Do you know how old is England a former World power.

To answer the OP's question, Nigeria would have been worse of why because Nigeria is a mono economy so once Oil price starts dwindling then there is a problem. Jonathan never saved, when oil prices were @ an all time high, he depleted the Foreign reserve in his term, he flooded the economy with too much dollars during the elections, he never took steps to diversify the economy, never did anything to improve local production to help our foreign exchange earning. So Buhari inherited a bad Nigerian economy so you can't be quick to blame him. Blame Jonathan but if after Buhari's term he doesn't bring us out of this problem then we can begin to blame him.

clemmonce:
Would the economy have been worse as this if Gej had won ? I don't think so. Nigerians made a mistake
Let me tell you a short story of what happened when the oil prices began to crash, just between October 2014 and May 2015 when GEJ handed over:

(1) The Naira fell from N166/167 to N220 to $1, meanwhile oil still sold at about $65/barrel as at May 2015.
http://abokifx.com/previous-rates-2/

(2) The nation's foreign reserves dropped from ~$38.5bn to $28.7billion, that's a drop of about $10billion in 7 months, with oil still selling at about $65/barrel as at May 2015.
http://www.cenbank.org/intops/Reserve.asp

(3) Nigeria's GDP growth rate which was maintained at an average of 6-7% suddenly dropped to its lowest since 1999 of 2.3%.
http://www.tradingeconomics.com/nigeria/gdp-growth-annual

(4) Due to a severe cash crunch occasioned by fall in oil prices, the Nigerian government had to borrow about $2.4billion dollars early in 2015 to pay salaries. The FG could not also pay accumulated arrears of fuel subsidy since August 2014 to petroleum importers (this led to the fuel scarcity in May 2015 just before the handover and Lai Mohammed also blamed this owed fuel subsidy as the reason behind the fuel scarcity late last year)
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/05/nigeria-borrows-to-pay-salaries-with-cash-crunch-worsening/
http://www.channelstv.com/2015/12/21/lai-mohammed-blames-fuel-crisis-on-past-administration/

Note that all of the above happened at a time when oil still sold above $65/barrel; today oil sells for about $30/barrel

Now I do not want to imagine the kind of economic humanitarian crisis that would have enveloped Nigeria had GEJ continued in his usual manner of dipping his hands into the forex reserves; only God saved us as a nation else we would have been standing on long queues by now to receive one cup of rice daily from W.H.O or UN outlets.

Did I just hear you say continuity of those four (4) negative events I just pointed out above?
Are you aware that the FG under Buhari has not borrowed to pay salaries? It even bailed out the states
Are you aware the FG has paid off subsidy arrears owed to oil importers even since the days of GEJ?
Are you aware the FG/CBN has been able to maintain virtually the same forex reserve amount that it inherited till date?... Unlike GEJ that crashed it by $10billion in 7 months of oil price crash?
And now all these have been done when oil sells for less than half of what it was when GEJ was handing over and you think the present government is more useless?? I challenge you to tell me that these figures and indices I have written here are wrong, kindly explain to us your 'empirical' evidence.

Op, tell you what?, Buhari is quite smarter than Jonathan, How?

Whether Jonathan was re-elected or not, the economy would remain like this or worst but Buhari just came up with an idea called CHANGE, not necessarily to turn Nigeria to America over night but cover up some loopholes in the system.

Buhari does not have the power to change Nigeria economically but he has the influence to minimize Nigeria's elite corruption. But Jonathan saw it as stealing isn't corruption.

But GEJ handed GMB a better Nigeria than where we are today. At least $1 was 200 as at May 2015.
Buhari's delay in appointing his ministers made foreign investors to lose hope in Nigeria which led to the exit of the likes of JP Morgan. This increased the trend in capital flight as a result of lack of confidence in the Nigeria's policy or policy less economy for too long.
And l tell you, the implication of this we can see in our naira shortly after their exit. This is so because as they are selling their stocks in naira, they will seek foreign currency for onward transfer to their countries, thereby mounting more pressure on our naira.

Empirical evidence u say?.......wud he hv been able to stop d nose dive in oil prices given d fact dat the economy was neva diversified under his regime. Gej is a good man but as a leader he had no political will to curb looting. I remember him speaking about austerity measures as far back as 2013 dat was to show d economy was already in recession as at then.

Actually if you look at it.GEJ would have beyond doubt perform and managed the present economy far,far,far and away better than PMB. But the problems would be
1,will PMB allow peace to reign upon the country after another loss in the elections(2011).your guess will be as good as mine.b.h sympathetism and outright chaos in the north would have spurn out of govt control(killing of anybody south and east).
2,will an APC governors and APC Assembly work with the president to even pass the budget remember the APC blocked the budget in his time.
3,with the outcome of the elections in favour of GEJ.will the s.e sit back and watch daylight murder in the north and not retaliate bringing about the second civil war!


So you can see the decision that was placed on Gej shoulders!
I doubt if PMB is bold and strong enough to deliver the successes that Gej had and avert the chaos of the last election by that one phone call.

But it is hoped that PMB should stop dancing with these broom wavers in the name of change and deliver quality governance

Copied from a statement from this thread. I think this is the best answer for your.

But GEJ handed GMB a better Nigeria than where we are
today. At least $1 was 200 as at May 2015.
Buhari's delay in appointing his ministers made foreign
investors to lose hope in Nigeria which led to the exit the
