taharqa: So the External Reserves and the Excess Crude Fund as at July 2007 when OBJ just left was $43.6billion and $8.8billion respectively WHILST TODAY dat same Reserve is almost $46billion and Excess Fund almost $10billion (plus, $1billion already in d SWF making a total of almost $11billion). Yet smone comes and REPORTS that smone else said the Reserves ('$67billion') has bn 'squandered' and the emptied. The 1st questn that a normal rational human being should ask is :Which of the two periods' Reserves are higher? Which one wud logically be said to hv bn 'squandered or emptied' from looking at d two figures from d two periods?? But then again this is today's Nigeria with a lot of people suffering from a Severe shain of d newly discovered ALUU disease. A country where any 'foool' can mk even d sillliest accusatns against a rival in a position of Authority (whether in govt, private offices etc ) regardless of hw irrational it is and easily get people to line up behind d him/her as long as he mentions d Buzz word CORRUPTION even once. It is d same country where a Young Chap who hv bn wooing a Fine Gurl in his neighbourhood for months, and when it seems tins are beginning to shape up, suddenly anoda Fine Boy comes to the scene and d fine gurl starts falling for him; Mr Young Chap then plots, brings dis new Fine Boy to the centre of d street, picks a fight and while they are at it suddenly turns around and shouts: THIEF, THIEF, THIEF. Immediately, d entire streets empties as men, women, even children and passers-by brings anything they can lay dier hands on, including petrol and a tire of course; beats Fine Boy up (now, d 'THIEF') and burns him there at d middle of d street, no questn askd..... Oh! the Myth dat Nigerians are Intelligent, Proud and hv a mind of their own. Already, 2 persons on dis thread hv already vowd to vote for the bold lady who was said to hv made dis allegatn and DRAMATICALLY askd for a Debate!!! Go figure...

Guy, you no get sense at all. You are just as silly as Maku and the rest of the clowns. Obasanjo grew the reserves from around $2 billion to $43 billion in 8 years. Jonathan has been in the administration for 6 years and shame no even catch you to proclaim that it was $43 billion in 2007 and $46 billion now. You are indeed shameless. Obasanjo grew it by almost $40 billion, GEJ has grown it by $3 billion despite MUCH HIGHER oil prices than when OBJ was there. Look here clown, you can't deceive people like me. We all know what happened... The reserves went down signifantly by several billions, before it was built back up to where it is now. How about the excess crude. OBJ built it from 0 to $22 billion and GEJ went from $22 billion to $10 billion (-$12 billion) despite record high oil prices. You and Jonathan should bury your head in shame..

Okonjo Iweala is the reason the reserve has not been drained by now. We need to give her the thumbs up for that.

I really wish Nigerian politicians can wash their hands clean of any corruption. The situation in Nigeria is really pathetic
