Nope! That's not what he said. It's you that is saying it. Talk about wrong interpretation.

is like you're mad, kemi, buhari and CBN Governor should all resign now!! It's not by speaking English she should resign now.

Chai.... Nigeria is on a long thing.... 2019 is far ó.... With a lawyer as minister of power, an accountant as minister of education, a French graduate as minister of agriculture.....I just pity people who are still expecting miracle from this government.... IT IS FINISHED!

ok, I rephrase; this dude just politely inferred that his father might be incompetent

Managing the resources of a small coven like ogun state is a different ball game. Kemi may have excelled as the commissioner for finance in ogun state but minister for finance in Nigeria is a different ball game.

This is not a fault of hers but that of Buhari who put square pegs on round holes.

In my opinion, she should be head of an agency within a ministry not a substantial head of a complex ministry.

Emefiele would've been sacked a long time ago if buhari had the powers. Too bad, emefieles current tenure will expire same year as buharis regime.

Vp osinbajo should step aside as head of the economic team. He is a professor of law for heavens sakes.

Let's be real here..what is there to fix? There are no short term solutions. We don't have infrastructures in place, we don't export any product other than oil of which we don't even get value for because we still end up importing the same fuel... The citizens have voracious appetite for foreign stuffs..power supply is epileptic which makes the cost of producing locally greater than the cost of importing hence the reason why import thrives..Your senators are the most highly paid in the world..Nigeria is fu..cked and I'll not watch you use Kemi as your scape goat.

pray tell what you will do differently.

Obviously reno don't know the job of a finance minister.. .. Based on her job she has done wonderfully well

The only person i have issues with is the cbn governor... stop selling few dollars we have cheaply

Reno will never stand debate instead he will look for people with bad English or bad understanding to reply on tweeter or Facebook

Have u ever seen him or Bruce reply a reasonable comment or tweet? ?

Splinz:
Chai! Reno is bad... This kind exposition fit make Kemi commit more blunders in our economy. Wicked!

todaynewsreview:
n a series of Facebook Post, Reno Omokri, the former Presidential Aide has once again attacked Nigeria Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun as one of the reasons for the present economy woes in the country.

Acording to Reno:

This table shows the best universities and the worst ones in England. University of East London, the school our pretty finance minister, Kemi Adeosun , attended is number one amongst the worst. This is a former polytechnic that only became a university in 1992. Now you know why you have a recession!

So that means Emiefile who went to school in Naija should never have been elected right?

Miles300:
in a recession the first point of call it's for govt to check it's spendings, why do u think most western countries put austerity measures in place whenever there is economic crisis, our senators are still av large chunk of pay just as u av rightly said .. The proble of the nation is so huge that u really can't know where to start from and this is where our leaders has failed , at this level of civilization nigeria as a nation is still struggling for power supply .this are areas that needs to be worked on , but no succesive govt has Been able to pick one project nd complete it , u can't solve the problem of nigeria overnight ... But we are saying that this govt is not doin enough wat is goin on in aso rock only God knows !!

ChessEnthusiast:


You're now displaying objectivity. There's more to this recession that meet the eye. We know the right thing to do, but we don't want to do it. PMB is about to borrow another huge chunk of money that will be wacked again by corrupt politicians. Why borrow money again when the reasonable thing to do is cut down the cost of governance aggressively...as you said "cut down spendings"..with what we have seen, have the executive and legislative arms of government show any signs of cutting down their ridiculous allowances and bogus constituency projects ? Rather it's been ordering of some expensive vehicles to padding of budgets etc.. We can put all the blames on the fiance minister for all we want while we exonerate the real culprits, but we should ask ourselves if we are being truthful and sincere...
see, coming out of recession is very easy oo, but we're running away from the real solutions. the onus is on the executive and the house of assembly to get us out of recession.
All this one we're still doing is moving in a vicious circle.
We have enjoyed the rain, now we cannot run away from the mud. we have to deal with it..

If I were the finance minister

bayooooooo:
Reno is clueless or appropriately, mischievous since one can't really say he is ignorant. Didn't we just vote out a president with a doctorate because of his disastrous performance? Perhaps we should put in our constitution that a Harvard or an Oxford PhD is the basic minimum to contest Nigeria's presidency.

Kemi Adeosun's performance as a finance minister is above average. Her portfolio is quite different from NOI's who, in addition to traditional role of finance minister, also controlled fiscal policy (in Jonathan administration). In Buhari administration, the fiscal policy is being driven not by the finance ministry but budget and national planning manned by Udoma. The disastrous monetary policies are championed by Emefiele ably supported by Buhari's irresponsibility. Replacing Kemi Adeosun would have no effect on both the fiscal and monetary policies. In any case, because many Nigerians are uninformed anyway, a poor economy is automatically blamed on finance minister regardless of who hold(s) portfolios that can actually tweak the economy.

AreaFada2:
Chai! No wonder recession is only a word in her book.
Somebody who went a decent school cannot utter such.

Excelled in Ogun state! [b]The state that required a bailout due to the unsustainable debt partly accumulated [/b]during Adeosun's era.

When people say someone has excelled as finance commissioner, they usually point to increases in IGR. But an increase in IGR accompanied with a borrowing binge - the latter magnitudes bigger than the former - is financial recklessness. This is what she achieved in Ogun state and this alone made her unsuitable for the role.

I suspect that a lot of decisions attributed to her is actually down to political pressure: whether under Amosun or Buhari. But a craven disposition to be a yes woman is not a feature suitable for a finance minister/commissioner.

NOI was minister of Finance and Head of Economics Management Team. Was she able to prevent the current recession by making reasonable savings for the country?
Kevin Adeosun is not our problem in this country. Let's stop playing petty politics with important matters and face the task of rescueing the sinking ship collectively by tell PMB, I mean PMB the truth.

a better question is tell us what you will do if you are there to end this recession. i need just 5 pointers from you. give me 5 policies real quick. am waiting.

Secondly, in the West there is a reason why they put people who went to the best universities in charge of most govermental positions.

admax:
Stupid people!

He worked for a Government that refused to save when crude oil price was high but wasted money on their corrupt friends till they turned CBN to ATM.

Jonathan wasted billions of dollars while seeking re-election and they used that Ngozi to do make-up for the state of our economy. Nigeria has been in distress for long but only few knew due to numerous lies by GEJ Goverment.

Buhari didn't help matters since he has no clue on how to turn around this country despite his promises, to make matters worse, he isn't allowing the right people to help him but prefers to pursue decades long old vendetta.

Why has Emefiele not be sacked? His cluelessness on the Forex issue aggravated the recession Nigeria is facing.

Reno is in US or UK lavishing the money he got during GEJ tenure. He never brought any good idea when working with GEJ but is now instigating people against Buhari while living large abroad.
