So OBJ is now = Nigeria abi? PMB is only interested in allaying the fears of OBJ, making certain documents available for him to peruse, but can't put any effort into convincing the house of assembly or the general public that the gains on this loan out-weigh the cons. PMB must think we'r all stupid in this country, n we must be! Heck we voted him in nw!! 2 Likes |

It was gathered that the government would also make all the details available to the ex-President to prove that the loans would not amount to fresh “debt traps.” Finally the govt of change is answerable to one man not the masses 1 Like |

pinkcottoncandy: In as much as I didn't quite agree with your post in its entirety, the point I want to make is that of the first few commentators, you're the only one that made sense and yet you had just one 'like'. This tells you how shallow minded the youths of today are; they are bereaved of logical reasoning. Very unfortunate. 1 Like |

How does he intend to pay back the loan ? No one should be stopped from taking a loan, but before you take any loan, you must fulfill one condition which is; That the loan must be taken in your first tenure and make sure you pay back all the loans you take before the end of your 4 year tenure. If you win re-election, you are not free to take any loans. 1 Like 1 Share |

PATENT GOLDMINE OR ECONOMIC THALIDOMIDE? THE VIABLE OPTION OUT OF RECESSION This is a question for the government of the day. Why do we have a legacy of $150 billion and still swim in depth and dirt of economic recession? While we have a goldmine to tap into, we keep on swallowing the economic thalidomide pill of borrowing which has proven to be our undoing for many years now. Our dependency on oil revenues have blinded our successive governments to opportunities and our affinity to borrowing is pathetic. In the past 15 years, we have been borrowing to pay salaries without care for infrastructural development. A renewed attempt by the presidency to borrow another $30 billion is an economic thalidomide that we were able to avoid. Property Rights in Nigeria is a viable way out of recession into prosperity. We must not forget how America got so rich with property rights. The American government benefitted from a quick setup of the patent office. Intellectual property like patents, copyrights, and royalties makes it possible for people to profit from their creations. American professional class of actors, artists, writers, musicians and specifically Bill Gates riches won’t exist without intellectual property. A society ruled by laws protects property. Property rights were the secret to America’s success. When citizens are assured and confident of the protection of the government when someone tries to take their property from them, then they work very hard to earn and invent. This leads to prosperity. Why would I work hard, invent and give my all to make a difference when it can be taken from me without a government to protect her interest? Nigeria today can boast of Patent RP 13522, an invention called Anti-Corrosive Special Paint and worth over $150 billion. It is used by many oil multinationals to curb the menace of pipeline and equipment corrosion. The Patent owned by a Nigerian company can end our economic woes and bring about massive infrastructural development. It will bring into our foreign reserve over $47 billion in less than 90 days with a potential of $150 billion before year 2019 should the government taps into it. The refusal of users and infringers to pay up the Patent royalties can be attributed to the failure of our 3 arms of government to be patriotic especially now that our failing economy needs the royalties for survival. The Patent Goldmine or Economic Thalidomide? Rather than take the same economic thalidomide of borrowing that has been our undoing in recent years, the government of the day will do Nigerians a lot of good by reaching out to the management of Comandclem Nigeria Limited and our infringing oil multinationals for a round table talk over payment of $47 billion royalty overdue. Such patriotic gesture is what we need to get out of recession in the shortest possible time. At the moment, it is our most viable option.

pinkcottoncandy:Nice analysis, but unfortunately economics does not work that way, UK may be having one trillion dollars as it debt profile, but they have a strong economic structure, large GDP, increasing GNP and most importantly a consistent revenue generation. Thesame thing with USA and China. Please try to verify these : Nigerian revenue ratio to it debt Nigerian GNP ratio to it debt. Stability of Nigerian currency and Efficiency of it tax collection. |

It's a joke. All over the world, there's divestment of Government's interest from ventures like rail transport, air transport, road transport etc to private hands. Interestingly, that's what this Government is still planning to embark on in this age. This Government is cursed without doubt. The current leadership is too dull to understand the dynamics of modern governance. 1 Like |

bart10: At last a commenter who gets it! These are all things that private investors would be eager to take on with their own money - assuming the country were being run by a government that is business-friendly and has sane economic policies. The idea that refineries, railways, airports and so forth need to be run by government is simply stupid, and Nigeria's long record of failure with all these things should say something about how well this belief has worked over the last 50 years. Nigerians are busy making noise online about Donald Trump selecting Bayo Ogunlesi as part of his transition team, but the President of Ogunlesi's native country doesn't seem to realize that Britain's Gatwick airport is actually owned and run by a consortium headed by Ogunlesi's firm. How many Nigerians wouldn't be singing hallelujah if Murtala Muhammed were run half as well as Gatwick? Yet as soon as you raise the possibility of privatising any of these facilities, you hear ignorant nonsense about "national assets", though in their current state they'd be better called "national liabilities". 2 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria is a country full of dullards as shown in the response of wailers to the proposed borrowing of 30billion dollars to tackle major development projects, if one could recall the former British Prime minister took a loan of £50 billion pound sterling from the Islamic Bank of Britain to tackle major economic issues affecting his country and there was no weeping as we are witnessing in this country of dullards. Buhari should not listen to the wailers and should go ahead with his plans to bring back the country to the nation of our dream. |
