cool


No15 ; If not for his uncelebrated wisdom as a finance guy, Nigerian currency would have been as useless as that of Venuzuela or Zimbabwe, when the goverment suddenly devalued the Naira because Of dweddling Global oil Price.

No16 ; The Rice Revolution Celebrated by Lai muhammed and Audu Ogbeh was largely succesfull because of Emeifele's CBN anchor borrowers program

No17 ; he is Under Celebrated because he isnt an alarmist like Sanusi who gave baseless allegation of a missing $50billion in an economy like Nigeria, or prof Soludo whose Bank recapitalisation exercise was so publicised, you'd think it wasnt the normal thing to do

Nairaland is as good as dead, imagine what we have here as news.

Whereas, bunch of informative topics are lying dumb in various sections.

I wish I be yahooboy, Nairaland is the very first site I will hack, then turn it into a pornsite so that it will be obvious that the site is dead.

Rubbish....
