I helped praying GEJ out of office {despite praying him in 2011}.


You can now kill yourself.

[size=13pt]Pat has said on TV (NTA One on One) that APC relied on him to a very large extent, in drawing up a constitution when they didn't have one but that ever since they won, no one wants to listen to or consult him (or others like him) again[/size]

PMB should make this guy a consultant. He just nailed it here.

A. Full diversification of the economy cannot happen overnight.
B. There should be good fiscal policies that would create incentives for budding industries. Right now there is none.

These are the real issues not "exchange rate" or devaluation/no devaluation. Even if we devalue the naira now, nothing will improve because there are no policies to take advantage of the decision.

I'm positive that if Buhari spends one month to assemble a formidable team, and brainstorm on a range of policies to affect budding Nigerian industries especially the buoyant agric sector, investors confidence will be piqued and the economy will stop falling. Look at the fiscal policies on local processing of rice and automotive policy by GEJ. Those are sound policies.

Buhari needs to push forward with good policies of his own. Tomatoes are wasting in the north and we are still importing tomato paste when our local tomato paste manufacturers face plenty of logistical challenges. That mini-industry needs government input. Increase import duty on tomato paste and make low interest loans available for the producers. Very soon, like with cement, we would be totally dependent on local production and start exporting tomato paste.

There are many mini-industries like that, that need Buhari's timely intervention to grow and further diversify the economy, but the dullard will prefer to travel without placing emphasis on the economy.

He won't have to do anything because the one you "prayed in" might kill you first.

sweetgala:


When you fail to read the true message in what he said in 1980 due to the decadence of the Shagari govenemt like we had under PDP wastage and corruption was the order of the day. It took a disciplined man like Buhari to crack down on the situation and manage those dark difficult days between 83-85,

we are in the same boat again over the past 16 years PDP have failed to diversify the economy and Buhari has started making some ground breaking progress to diversify our economy. He has set out what is a great plan the idea of the budget is great, ad Nigerians we have a duty to make sure the budget is correctly drawn and implemented.

Unless you have another country to choose I'd expect you pray and work for the benefit of Nigeria.

Goke7:


I tire o, the way some of our elites have been bashing PMB, shows they are indeed the major cause of our problems cos a lot of them benefit majorly from our importation based economy. They have to prophesy doom so PMB can easily cave in to their desires which is devaluation but God pass them.

Well Written Lord !!! Please no name calling because we are all affected.
You hit the nail on the head. I have a friend from Kano State who is currently lamenting the fact that, tomato producing farmlands in Kano are laying in waste; previously he stated that those farms were producing tomatoes in season and out of season, using irrigation from the now defunct River basin Authorities. He stated that those farms would have produced enough food for Nigeria and also export some which would have earned the country hard foreign echange; look at Italy for example.
The above scenerio in production of tomatoes, plays out in other agricultural products like groundnuts and other products which could have been also used in agro-allied industries to save foreign exchange.
I am glad Bubu has finally taken Professor Wole Soyinka's advice to convene an economic summit. I hope he incorporates the likes of Professor Pat Utomi, Aliko Dangote, Innocent Chukwu (Innoson), Dr. Mike Awonuga (Globacom), Mr. Tony Elumelu (Transcorp Group), Dr. Akinwunmi Adeshina (current ADB Chairman), Alhaji Isayaku Rabiu (BUA Group), Dr Ifeanyi Uba (Capital Oil) and lots of intellectuals and corporate czars who know the inner workings of our economy into it.

omonnakoda:

That is one approach or he could incorporate Okada riders and market women/men and small businessmen.

Those names you mention will NEVER improve the lives of the common man.Business does not have to be big to change society.
We need security,professional police rule of law and justice for everyone. A clear path for settling even small disputes of 20000 naira that involves LAW accessible to all, protection from touts. Rural development policies. Not grandiose summits of the rich. Governments needs to start meeting with the poor just like Fayose is doing but it can be more focused and professional. Let them start going to Nigerian markets
