Lies.

You guys just go around calling figures as if we are uneducated. What is the population of those in Abuja?and the Government is still the biggest employer of Labour there, so this figure does not add up.

The Government will not open an Avenue for you crooks to Launder money for our Politicians again.

The ACCI president said the situation had become so bad that even big manufacturing companies such as Unilever Nigeria Plc, Dangote Cement, Air France and Emirate Airlines were having problem getting foreign exchange.

He stressed the need for the Federal Government to come up with a comprehensive approach that would address the problem.

He said, “There is a need for government to do something urgently and stop living in denial.

Don't politicized this issue. It involved people means of livelihood. People of us are idle for the past three weeks now because of scarcity of dollar to import raw materials.

Many posters here are out of touch with realities in Nigeria. Businesses are folding up faster than anyone can imagine.

Even a "paint rubber of rice" that previously sells at N950 has skyrocketed to N1400 as of yesterday. This is a first hand info, not propaganda. Those who still go to market (without waiting for mom) will understand.

The earlier will accept the doom that befell Nigeria the day GMB was sworn in, the better for all.

GEJ said he queued to get Peak Milk, very soon, Nigerians may not be able to afford certain commodities any longer because of hardship.

Businesses like Insurance and Investment Banking are really under serious pressures. Only God can comfort these folks, 50,000 or less, it doesn't matter.

Really truth must be told, this Buhari govt is not doing enough! It seems he is very clueless on how to manage the vast Nigerian economy. His team of ministers are to me not the best. Granted they are good hands among them, but a lot of the others are just there because of their contributions towards the success of APC in the election. Nothing is working in this country now, people are angry everywhere; if you go the office you will under tension and full of the fear of the unknown because your boss is not happy! Everyday he is threatening fire and brimstone just because money is no longer flowing in. People are saying PDP did this, did that but things were not so gloomy throughout their 16 years rule. Now another fuel scarcity is looming and the president is no where to be found to address issues. He rather jumps to the next plane for useless meetings that does not address the fundamental problems this economy is facing. He seems like an arrogant man who thinks he knows better than any other person. How can a man who doesn't have a degree in economics refuses to hire or constitute an economic team that can help him out in running the economy. Everyday we are inundated with one corruption case or the other just to keep the masses busy from noticing their glaring incompetence. If Buhari is not ready to rule Nigeria, he should just honourably resign to save our dear nation

ijustdey:

since Abuja can lay off such amount of workers..... I guess Lagos would have laid off 500,000 workers too

justicejay:
But this not the change they promised. I swear APC na scam

Csami:


Please tell your senseless and insensitive government that the crooks are not the ones suffering but the masses.

Una never see something yet

afroniger:
GEJ and his PDP predecessors don dollarize our economy finish, sotay our economy cannot survive again without dollars?! We might as well dump the naira and start spending the dollar as our national currency na, abi? When they were sharing dollars during election they didn't know they were doing irreparable damage to the naira then. Smh.

Emyogalanya:
are you guys dumb or just plain silly so when they say employment you think is only those that attend interview with app letter? This stats is for both formal/informal job loss. Let me explain if you lose ur job and cant buy food, polish ur shoes, sew ur cloths make/barb ur hair etc have those ppl doing those things not lost thier job with you? For instance we hear women complain of lack of husbands is it that there are no more men? no it means the men have no jobs to sustain marriage and so they put marriage on hold. Next is that hoteliers will complain that no one books thier halls and some workers are affected again. It goes on and on

Abuja is not an industrialized place like Aba, lagos and onitsha.
Its a civil servants paradise, how could they boast of a staff strenght of 50,000 , when all we have there are over glamorized shopping malls , restaurants and hotels.
