Messed up which economy? You must be referring to a Nigeria in a parallel universe!

Nigerias' economy was on an upward trajectory when GEJ and Okonjo-Iweala were in charge. Almost all socio-economic indicators were positive. This kwarruption-kwarruption you numbskulls keep on parroting about just to try and deflect blame for Buhari and APC gross incompetence and running the economy aground....you know Nigeria performed better in the corruption perception index during the time of GEJ? Even regarding security, can you actually say Nigeria is more secure today than when GEJ was President? Wasn't the naira better valued during the GEJ years than it is today with you 'man of integrity' in power? The present job losses nko.....can you compare the present job data to those of the GEJ years?

Come to think of it, since your 'saint' is now in power and corruption has purportedly been reduced to its barest minimum...since the price of oil has been above the budgeted estimates for at least the past two budgets....since the Buhari gov't has recovered all the billions of dollars they say GEJ gov't and PDP stole since 1999...since all this is now the case shouldn't we be experiencing economic boom and happiness?

You guys are so annoying walahi!

Truth be told, he borrowed to pay salaries because NOI had already warned that if subsidy is not taken away, the country will borrow to pay salaries, but you and your lots gathered at Ojota to protest subsidy removal with the likes of Tinubu, hell'rufia, bakare etc.
Today, we are still paying subsidy and it has rising from about 230bn during GEN to 1.4trn per year according to Min.of state for petroleum, from 87 per litter to 145.
No be to give monkey water be the issue but na to collect cup back be the koko. Buhari will so deal with us to the extent that even you his support will sort for a self contained apartment in Mozabique or Guinea Bissau. To have developed to the point of supporting you assertions here on NL, you can effectively run a local govt. Area so why are you, in this age and time, still clamouring for a grandpa cattle rearer to be ruling over you?

TonyeBarcanista:
Duke is no different from all six governors of class 1999-2007 from the SouthSouth. They serially loath Jonathan whom they considered a "junior" that beat them to become Vice President ahead of them despite their lobbying.

Duke I know can't win his polling unit with his SDP

If he cn leak a private conversation without Iweala's consent, he will one day sell the country's destiny for the right price.

I hope the book has answers to how she superintended over our descent into recession amidst high oil earnings and States couldn't pay salaries until PMB bailed out the states.

Can you be real for once?

Does Nigeria have destiny?

Has Nigeria not being sold?
When a whole nation is struggling or can't afford to build a refinery, but one single man is building it.


Out of the 11 characteristics of a failed state, Nigeria has 10.
The only thing keeping us in faith and fate.

Search your conscience, you can't disagree, except you are part of the thieves or a beneficiary Close to the thieves that have ruined this country

whirlwind7:


Jonathan, in turn trying to ignore them, might be the reason why it is generally perceived that he failed the south. It was expected that he would address the age long neglect of the south, especially SS, but he didn't seem to give that region a special attention or preferential treatment.

This could be the reason.

CaptJeffry:
This is disheartening. I know Duke is a mafia but I never knew he could be evil minded towards an SS brother.

Where I've seen Duke and Ben Bruce in Los Angeles isn't a place one sees ordinary men. This is why I smile when people refer to them as nice guys.

Show me one refinery in USA, UK, Korea owned by the country.

States don't run businesses.

How long would take you to understand this simple concept?
