NAIJASOM:
Below is my comment on August 2nd, 2015 about this government on this thread :https://www.nairaland.com/2496853/how-jonathan-transformed-refineries-setting


The people trying so hard to give PMB credit for GEJ policies are NOT doing him any favors. All buhari will end up doing is to sit back and relax and just take credit for the works of last administration.

Investors are still uncertain about what direction he plans to take the ongoing reforms started by the last administration and this is affecting FDI and the stock market. I am waiting to see the quality ministers he appoints. That will give me a good indication what the next 4 years would be like.


forget about investors trillions lost in 100 days they are out of here like last week. Themlying liars will still come here and say this is better, watch out.

It's so funny, that while the CBN and the FG, believe that market liquidity is gaining, the actual truth is that every monetary policy by the CBN, since May 29, has actually decreased liquidity in the markets and the financial institutions, by failing to increase the amount of cash the banks and financial institutions are supposed to have, aside that they can borrow to the public, despite the fact that their policies have reduced the amount of cash at hand for the populace. This directive by JP Morgan, and many more to come, will finally send our economy over the edge, thereby leaving the CBN, with no choice than to accede to the President's wishes to turn the pattern of our economy from a capitalist system to a central controlled economy. This will invariably kill Nigeria.

Nigeria raises $1bn in international bond sale

Nigeria has raised $1bn through an international bond sale despite higher borrowing costs in the wake of market turmoil caused by the US Federal Reserve’s plans to end quantitative easing.
Africa’s most populous country issued $500m of five year bonds and $500m of 10-year bonds, at a yield of 5.375 per cent and 6.625 per cent respectively, below the initial guidance by bankers. The overall order book was just over $4bn.

“Investors aren’t as desperate for yield as they were, so we won’t see the massive order books of the past in the near future, but there is still strong demand for good stories,” said Nicholas Samara, a banker at Citigroup, which is working on the deal.
Nigeria is rated BB- by both Standard & Poor’s and Fitch Ratings, well below investment grade, or “junk”, but many investors are enamoured by the rising African powerhouse. Capital Economics expects that a revision of Nigeria’s gross domestic product data due next year will confirm that it has overtaken South Africa as the region’s biggest economy.
“There is some nervousness [on emerging markets] and this was a week of relative stability,” Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Nigeria’s finance minister, told the FT. “If we look down the road we might see liquidity flow out of emerging markets.”
Nigeria first tapped international debt markets in January 2011, whetting investor appetite for African debt. Since Nigeria’s debut, Angola, Zambia, Namibia, Tanzania and most recently Rwanda have all issued inaugural international bonds.
The yield of Nigeria’s debut bond fell to a low of 3.64 per cent in January, but jumped to a peak of 6.24 per cent in late June, after investors were rattled by the Fed’s plans to reduce its bond-buying this year and end the QE programme altogether in 2014.
Bankers took Nigerian officials – led by high-profile finance minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala - on a one-week roadshow to meet investors earlier this month, but the turmoil delayed the bond sale.
Some calm has returned to bond markets and Nigeria’s 2021 bond yield fell to 5.74 per cent on Tuesday, spurring Citigroup and Deutsche Bank, the bond’s two bookrunners, to announce the deal to investors.
Investors are anxiously awaiting US employment figures out on Friday, given that the strength of the data could influence the Fed’s plans. Bankers say robust job growth could encourage the Fed to end QE, but rattle bond markets and make further emerging market issuance difficult before the summer hiatus.
“Ngozi’s leadership in pulling the trigger on this in a window in the turmoil was tremendous,” said Jay Collins, a senior banker at Citigroup.
Nigeria intends to use the proceeds of the bond sale to finance infrastructure investments, particularly in power generation, as the country suffers daily blackouts due to an electricity shortage.

WombRaiders:


When this current administration was confronted on the shrinking economy as can be clearly seen from the stock market declines which so far has wiped off 2.5 trillion since the Duara Dullard was sworn in, the only excuse Aso Rock and liar Mohammed could give was that the last economy evaluation by the last administration was a lie.


How do you expect any one to take you serious after such statement? This is exactly how the naira crashed after it was clear to anybody with a sensible brain that Sanusi was a pathological liar.

The APC is full of the most incredibly daft set of individuals and Buhari is obviously the best candidate to lead these set of fools.

How the expect a despotic tyrannical semi illiterate bigoted goat at 40 to change in his 70's still beats my imagination.

Everything we warned them of is coming to pass.
It is just sad.
This is the same country that was the toast of j.p morgan last year.
The same country that was attracting foreign investments near the scale of china just last year.
Many international agencies and countries were actually getting very optimistic and some like south africa were very fearful that Nigeria may have finally gotten her economic potential activated.
How did the hell did we get back here?

After it was discovered that Sanusi lied on missing oil money, he later changed his figures from $50bn to $10bn then later $20bn.

This was enough to scare investors. Because it was obvious that the then central govt was using his office to play partisan politics. An office that was supposed to be filled with a seasoned dedicated technocrat.

As Bishop Kuka advised, don't abandon good governance at the expense of fighting corruption and recovering looted money. This money may become worthless if the economy is grounded.

There is no policy direction whatsoever coming from the Daura Dul1ard, he's looking more and more confused with each passing day.


All the economic gains achieved under the administration of GEJ all virtually eroded over-night, by this vindictive fool for a President.

The reality is that our dependence on oil and failure to utilise the opportunities when oil prices were high has made our monotonous economy a victim. A golden opportunity was mismanaged. Our major hope is to reduce importation and encourage local production.

Having inherited a near collapsed economy at a time oil prices are nosediving, Buhari just like in 1983 has a serious economic task ahead. Emefiele's Dollar policy is helping save our economy from free fall while it affects the advantages of our situation to the Western capitalists. This threat is meant to force Nigeria allow that free fall.

The banks are hurting bad and this is as a result of reckless borrowing by state governors who ended up struggling to repay loans they took for nothing on ground to show for it.

These states took so much bank loans depriving genuine businesses much needed funds.

Now that most of them could not pay, the banks had to increase lending.


Now fast forward to the Duara administration and the bail out. Part of the bail out package was to renegotiate an extension on loan repayments for the useless thieving governors thus the banks will see less money flow back to them in a longer period.

To make matters worse this useless govt provided much needed forex to offset the bail out plan. This is forex that would have serviced manufacturing sector which depends on imports.

The likes of Aregberascal, amosun and fashole are the main problem .

Harsh times await this country as we have been kicked out of the Bond Index making it difficult to maintain government liquidity due to the capital controls by Emefiele and no Finance Minister to lay a solid fiscal policy. I fear about social unrest.

Prophet of doom, is that the reason you see social unrest? Let me assure you that Nigeria Economy will in soonest time come stronger, then we will be celebrated for coming back.
