We would learn from this mistake. How can a stark illiterate run the affairs of a country? He has displayed nepotism and favouritism over the past one year. No economic blue print whatsoever. I think it is high time we have institution put in place. For anyone vying for the post of a senator, governor and president. They must pass through a school to certify them of being able to lead. Look at Buhari's poor academic performance. What do u expect him to offer? 9 Likes 1 Share |

eshietIntrepid: Very true. The Economist and many British newspapers and media outlets actively promoted Buhari as a reformed democrat and an as a governance magician who has all the answers to Nigerian problems inside his skull. The propaganda went into overdrive, with Washington Post weighing in as well. Now the scales are falling from their eyes as their business interests in Nigeria are folding up one after the other. |

The fundamental problem we have today is buhari! |
Re: Buhari Takes Nigeria Back 20 Years - The Economist by Standing5(m): 10:27am On Sep 23, 2016 |
While the usual suspects come to do their part I want to point out the fact any economic challenge faced today is largely cause by mismanagement and dependence on oil. Most people here are only interested in heaping blame on Buhari and barely understand the extent to which policies can influence a capital-less system like Buhari inherited. |

Standing5: Yes, and that mismanagement and dependence on oil alone, or what is called monocultural economy, or a single-commodity-driven economy and the devastating effect of that on the Nigeria's external reserves is aptly amplified in another thread: https://www.nairaland.com/3365622/external-reserves-drop-24bn Regardless, Obasanjo has come out to say that he met just $3billion in the national reserves when he took over from General Abdulsalami Abubakar, whereas Buhari inherited $30billion. Today, as reported by CBN that reserve has dwindled to $24 billion. That is a drop of $6billion under 18months of Buhari's government with absolutely nothing to show for it. In addition to this, this government claims to have recovered almost $500m (N78b, $185m, £3.5m, Euro 11,250 = $452m) from looted funds. Nigerians are beginning to ask the troubling question. Where has all the money gone?. Considering no infrastructure project in power, rail, aviation, road refinery, LNG, fertilizer or ports facilities has been implemented by this government. In fact the government is actually looking up to Dangote to provide some of these industrial facilities. Yet workers are being owed months of salary arrears. On top of this it has gone on massive borrowing campaign to IMF and China. 2 Likes

EternalTruths: She is a member of Lagos state KAI - Kick Against Indiscipline. They are stationed at foot bridges across expressways to arrest those who cross the road without using the bridges. There is a always a "black maria" truck and a mobile court close by. Everyday hundreds of poor, hapless Nigerians are arrested loaded into those huge trucks called "black maria", and the mobile court imposes hefty fines. As attested by LASG officials, it is more of a revenue drive for lagos state, than a genuine act to prevent deaths, since hundreds perish on the same Lagos roads on accidents due to horrible port holes and rickety public buses. |

Standing5: All the funds injected where? And the Minister of Finance is struggling to "guess" where the N2.2 trillion was spent on? If you know where the "injection" was done, maybe you should help Kemi Adesosun out. Because she is obviously at sea as what the money was spent on. |

Re: Buhari Takes Nigeria Back 20 Years - The Economist by cuteboy2: 7:07pm On Sep 27, 2016 |
Standing5: I am not sure where you got your fact that the so-called recent release of N350b (the first significant release in 2016) was for salaries. Another Minister in the cabinet (I believe, Lai Muhammed) came out to help her out by explaining that the N350b was to pay arrears of debt contractors. He said this to explain why there is no impact in the economy of that release. Whether Nigerians believe him is another matter entirely, given his antecedents and habit of lying to the public. |
