‘’IF THE QUOTE BELOW’’ which is making round in the social media actually came from the central Bank Governor, it means there is at least somebody in the Administration that understands the simple problem plaguing this nation.
The inability of the ministers to catch on this and provide a solution is absolute intention to frustrate Mr President.
The Administration should in the interest of the people who believe that Buhari meant well for this country and the interest of the nation in general send the ministers parking if they cannot come up with solutions to this identified problems after three months.
A problem identified is as good as solved.
If Buhari could do it alone, there would have been no room for Ministers.
The woman calling for the sack of the Central Bank Governor should join the voices of impartiality and let’s do one thing right : send the Ministers Home if the National problems persist after three months.`

“If I had an hour to solve a problem, I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.”

NIGERIA CBN GOVERNOR
Gowin Emefiele was
Quoted:

“It is either I do not understand economics and
how exchange rates work or a vast majority of us
Nigerians still don’t get how we have wrecked our
country with our own curious choices.
Just this morning, I was listening to the radio and
the lady on air went on and on about how she
thought CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele was
incompetent and should be sacked because the
Naira was now exchanging at 309 or so to the
USD.
“That view pretty much echoes the sentiments
expressed by many people I know and it amazes
me that there are Nigerians who actually think
there is some magic POLICY that can make the
Naira strong in the near term. If my economics
and my understanding of the way the world works
are right, then that is as far from the truth as
Jesus Christ is black.
“The simple fact of the matter is that apart from
oil that accounts for over 90% of our revenues, we
really don’t have much of an economy. We hardly
produce anything, we import even toothpicks, so
exactly what policy is going to be implemented
that will turn Nigeria into a top exporting
economy in the near term? Where are our Apples,
IBMs, Disneys, GMs, General Electrics, Coca
Colas, Empire State buildings, Statues of
Liberties, Lockheeds, Citibanks, JP Morgans,
ExxonMobils, NBAs, Super Bowls etc? Let me
bring that closer home.
“There was a time long ago when Nigeria had a
truly strong economy and the naira was one to
the dollar – even exchanged for higher than the
USD, but that Nigeria is not this Nigeria. Sadly
that Nigeria was laid by the British, and this
Nigeria (if you don’t believe in the nonsensical
imperialist conspiracies like me) – fueled by the
DAMAGING Indigenization Decree, has been the
creation of us Nigerians.
Back then we had a booming economy.
We were either the top, or among the top
exporters, of timbre, cocoa, groundnuts, rubber,
palm oil, etc, in the world. Nigerians not only
holidayed at home in their villages, at Yankari
Games Reserve, at Obudu Cattle Ranch, at Oguta
Lake, at Ikogosi springs, at Gurara Falls, at
Mambilla Platueau, etc, we attracted international
tourists who brought in loads of foreign
exchange. Even Nigerian schools were foreign
exchange earners because they attracted foreign
students.
“We had different car assembly plants – Peugeot,
Volkswagen, Anamco etc. Nigerian government
officials only bought vehicles assembled in
Nigeria for official cars. We had a thriving sports
industry. We were not Man United or Chelsea
fans, we were Rangers or IICC fans. We had the
Nduka Odizors, people made money from sports.
We also had companies like Lennards and Bata
producing school shoes in their thousands, we
had the thriving Nigerian Airways and the Aviation
School in the north that produced some of the
best pilots in the world. In those days if you were
brilliant you were respected much more than the
crass money-miss-road contractors of today.
Most of the Aje Butters I knew had fathers who
were university dons. Back then it meant
something to ‘know book’. Our textile industry
was alive and well. Just recently I watched a
news report on the textile industry in Nigeria on
CCTV News. Though the main focus was on the
comatose status of the industry, I was stunned by
the gigantic Kaduna Textile Mill built in 1957. I
could go on and on.
“Today however, no thanks to our parents (and
we must call them out the way Wole Soyinka did
his generation) and many of us (and we should
be remembered for failing our children if we
continue like this), we have destroyed everything.
Today for instance Nigerian football (which comes
easy to me obviously) doesn’t appeal to us, we
have to fly across thousands of miles to watch
‘our’ clubs play. Every year we collectively burn
billions of Naira being fans of clubs that give us
nothing back, but some ‘entertainment value’ –
simple pleasures for which we are ready to
destroy the future of our children.
“Well people, payback time is here. Even with our
ta-she-re money we all want to wear designer
clothes and carry designer bags, Armani,
Givenchy, Louis Vuitton etc. We all want to drive
jeeps with American specs, our children must now
school overseas and acquire the necessary
accents to come back home and bamboozle their
‘bush and crass’ contemporaries that they left
behind. Who holidays in Nigeria anymore, is there
Disneyland here? No one buys made-in-Nigeria
school bags for their children, after all no
Superman or Incredible Hulk or Cinderella on
them.“We are no longer top exporters of anything
and the demise of oil means we have zilch… zero.
A country of 170M fashion-
conscious people has no textile industry. We take
delight in showing how our made-in- Switzerland
Aso Ebi is different class to everyone else’s. When
we help our musicians grow and pay them
millions, they repay us by immediately shipping
the monies overseas to produce their “i-don-dey-
different-level” music videos. It makes no
difference that distinctly Zulu dancers are dancing
to a Nigerian highlife song.

Ecomonic vibrant "that was when Nigerians were patriotic, all we have now are bed of strange fellows

Our leaders failed cus they could not provide leadership. Imagine a Governor flying with tax payers money to watch Arsenal play. This is where we need legislation but our lawmaker prefers contituency projects than making laws that will improve our lots. Its a pity indeed
