Obasanjo recently said he wanted NOI to be Buhari's deputy. If you Ieave tribe outta it, you'd realise Kemi is poor man's Iweala.

If my living standard qualifies as "living in poverty" I'll pray and hope "the poverty" continues and even progress.

And Kemi has done wonders since assuming office abi?
I know which finance minister I prefer at this time of oil glut.

PassingShot:
Even without watching the video, I will take Kemi or any other person in preference for the overhyped NOI.

Where was NOI who was the coordinating minister for the economy when Dasuki, CBN, Diezanni and those thieves masquerading as Service Chiefs were busy swallowing our common wealth?

Where was the paper heavy weight finance expert when tax relief and waivers were granted on luxury goods imported into the country?

Where was she when our SWF and ECA were being depleted?

If she had any honor while she held sway, she would have resigned honorably than watch on helplessly.

Ngizi was a scam!

It's too early to judge her performance yet you guys are comparing her with someone with pedigree and international standing.
What did she achieve as state commissioner for finance?

Where were you when governors demanded the money the prudent NOI saved be shared?

eyeview:
Without trying to be tribalistic,but its aalmost impossible for a yoruba person to support another person against their sister,even when the facts are glaring.
How can anyone compare NOI with the minor? Even Kemi herself will vote for NOI.
Anyway,we wish the economy well under this APC govt. They should stop pointing to the past and for the first time try pointing at the present and the future

Yea, Nigeria is ticking along fine......

LRNZH:


If you understand the scientific method, you won't be stating this.

We have about 8 years track record of Ngozi as finance minister all under high to very high oil prices. Nigeria failed to diversify it's oil dependent, import based economy under her. That is enough to draw a conclusion that Ngozi cannot manage a economy in surplus times.

Kemi inherited one of the worst economies in recent times with tanked oil price and forex drain from fighting insurgency in the North-East. She is yet to even spend 1 year on the job. It is too early to judge her performance especially since her situation is more challenging than Ngozi's.

But from the videos above, it is clear that Ngozi's temperament is not fit for a finance minister in difficult times.

My two kobo there.

LRNZH:


This your statement is a problem for me on many levels.

Look at the history of people OBJ has imposed on Nigerians when he is not in power.

Shagari, Yar'adua, GEJ.... And you want to bring up Ngozi.

They usually have one K-leg or the other from incompetence, illness or lack of integrity. OBJ looks for those he feels he can control because he identifies their weaknesses.

If you read OBJ's statement in his book where he brought up Ngozi as VP, he made a comment about her weaknesses that needed a firm leader to manage.

[b]VPs are supposed to be leaders that can lead on their own without any management from a firm leader if the need arises. OBJ disqualified Ngozi with that statement.

Finally, the same OBJ sacked her as his Finance Minister.[/b]

Some people think Ogun just became a hub overnight, someone did the hardwork silently.

I don't think anyone can be worse than Iweala. In our history she is the Finance Minister that has received the most revenue and strangely the one who borrowed the most so add her borrowing to oil revenue she has had the most money to spend .What do we have to show for it? Oil price dropped and everything collapsed.

She received 52% of total revenue from Federation account and spent it all and blamed the governors for that because they rightly insisted on their share which was less that 30%
Why did she not save the FG share?

And what did Ngozi achieve for our economy despite unprecedented earnings during her time......

FG, States, LGs Share N568.4 Billion for Oct



[img]http://cdn1.vanguardngr.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/412x247xOkonjo-Iweala-e1442838220305.jpg.pagespeed.ic.nz-K0adxSv.webp[/img]



Also, $1billion was proposed for distribution to complement shortfall in expected revenue." The $1billion is a compromise by the FG over its words in September not to augment shortfalls anymore.

Responding to the presentation, the chairman of the States Commissioners of Finance and Ebonyi State Commissioner of Finance, Mr Timothy Odaah, lamented that the statutory allocation was getting smaller and smaller. "It appears this is the worst in terms of returns. This is the least in allocations as far as this year is concerned. We are mourning the dearth of funds and this is a wakeup call for states and local governments to buoy up their internally generated revenue."

While appreciating the "magnanimity" of President Goodluck Jonathan to approve the $1billion from the excess crude account and to be shared among the federal, state and local governments, Odaah expressed disappointment with the returns made by the NNPC.

He said that [size=14pt]the states had requested for $2bn[/size] to complement for the shortfall in revenue but got only $1billion. In September, Odaah and fellow commissioners had walked out of the Accountant General of the Federation (AGF) when the federal government said that the framework of the 2013 budget was no longer realistic and it won't augment shortfall in revenue. Odaah raised issues with the statutory allocations of previous months.

And the Nigeria that became the economic hub of Africa, the number one investor choice, the best economy in Africa, all under the watch of a woman you love to hate. Then under your god, it has become a financial warzone as investors are pulling out faster than a man practicing withdrawal method...
