Ur post no make sense bros

wonder why all these papers dont translate to real development

I see nothing here... it will still not be fruitful

All if them are products of PDP govt. How many people like this is APC producing?

Without doubt they are all intellectual men, specialist in the field they call to work, but such intellectuals working under undomesticated and wart wit government may as usual end in dumbness and fatality.

Good way to start. Kudos to the President. I hope some wailers will give us some rest now.

Pesin wey ears de pain de hear word? Those UK doctors no sabi work or na bubu head no gree allow medisin work.

Even if you are the best in your field in the whole world, you will be rendered useless if you are made to work under someone whose head is empty.



Any one in doubt should ask pastor Osinbajo who is also a Prof.

These are really great Economist minds and can do great things IF politics is not mingled in their works

.

Asifiwe:
Only a Foolish President employ so many Advisers in a Tenure, It is an indication that the President is not intelligent, does not know what is happening in the country he oversees, he is not a people person who can relate with the People. With Buhari, I have never been surprised about him. His level of intelligence is too low
Too many advisers in less than 8 Years and the country is still as Bad as the Day of Abacha

He will still not implement their recommendations.
All is show and distraction on the affidavit nonsense.

The number 5 is even an Ode.

1. Even if you don't know these people, a reading of their profiles shows you that they have both deep knowlegde and practise experience that cuts across diverse economic environments.
2. What will Bismark Rewane need a CFA for? Bros, Bismark Rewane will help the CFA awarding institution to review their curriculum. What insult!
