I just can't understand why some people can't pick what PMB is saying, he is trying to justify why naira should not be devalue simple.

Buhari is looking n becoming more or less like a vegetable . But I assure you, your ouster in 2019, we bring about a resuscitation of our crumbling glory.
Buhari will win the second term for 2019. Whether you like it or not. There is nothing you can do about it.
Haters go insane.

Ok. My dad used to have a volks wagen Santana. Thats a fact!

What about now?

Hmmm....
Hahahaha
That your fact is useless to me as an outsider to your family. But if I were a member of your family, I would most probably have learnt all the advantages and disadvantages of owning Volkswagen products, which might help me make an informed decision when next I'm purchasing another car...

In the same vein, knowing how far we have come as a nation, especially with regards to naira devaluation, will help us learn a lot of lessons and avoid mistake repetition.

History is an important part of the future.

History is very important I agree. That's if we learn from it. But so far we re just repeating the mistakes and not learning from them. You think not devaluing or devaluing the naira would improve our economy if we don't start producing what we consume? It won't.


.....and about the santana. We were still very small and knew nothing about vehicles then, so the fact is kinda useless to us.

So the way forward is to diversify the economy. Stop the blame games. Fight corruption. All these will take patience, hard work and dedication.

Instead of criticizing our President all the time, let's join hands with him to make it work. He may not be a Harvard graduate but he appears to be street smart

I am doing my part by offering him constructive criticisms, much like my earlier comments. Giving us facts without actions won't do much good!

In 1984 when he left office the naira was 76kobo to the dollar, soon after IBB entered it became N2+ in 1986, and by the time IBB was through with the Nigerian economy in 1993, the naira had collapsed from 76kobo to N22+

You are very well on point, we must reduce our importation and produce locally by that we control our spending and exchange rate. Buhari can not be intimidated by some thiefs that have kill this country through importation of fuel and subsidy. We dont have reserve of petroL, reason why we panic at a call for strike. America has reverse that will sustain her for 50 year if petrol is extinct out of the word.

This was how PMB started the correction before he was saked in 1985. Let allow him die before burying him.

Truth is bitter.
Even IBB and his family must find you people stupid for defending their crime against this nation.
This isn't even blame game cos he's taking responsibility while calling out those who brought us to this state.
If he's lying let them defend themselves and stop fighting the only person fighting for you and your country... Pls.
the worst thing to happen to a human being is “reading without understanding.“
I can remember defending IBB.

Our president have been talking about our yesterday‘s failure without mentioning solution for the present.

Thats my point young man.

How else do you want him to put it, no devaluation but local productions of all our consumptions. The riches that benefit from importation dont what him to achieve this.

Making reference to the past does not mean blames.
It is just one of the ways a solutions will be finds to the present predicament.
i am not doubting you but take a look at what GMB/APC have been saying since they took over in May last year.

They have been telling us about failures & mistakes of yesteryears without ever providing solution for one of them.

From fuel to light to food to economy.

I think if this governement devotes the same amount of energy & resources they expend in blaming game & talking about the past into seeking for solutions we would have been better of.

Only those who knew the history or understand economics would only know what you are talking about. I was not surprise when someone mentioned ealier that he's turning the blame game to IBB now when he doesn't even know about the SAP loan. lipsrsealed

The hatred of PMB has really made some people to be so dumb. What he meant is Dat he is not really convinced Dat d devaluation of the Naira will improve d living conditions of d masses, cos d devaluation of d naira didn't have any impact on d economy after he was removed from office in d 80's.
Re: My 1985 Ouster Caused Crippling Of Naira —Buhari by Abagworo(m): 8:14pm On Apr 23, 2016
Protagonists of Naira devaluation are failing to learn from history. The truth is that without being an export economy devaluation can never solve our foreign exchange challenges. Even if Naira is devalued to 1000 a Dollar our foreign exchange earnings will still remain static while inflation will be triple digit.

you are on point bros but delibrations are not done on pages of newspaper or studios of television stations. It is done in secret chambers and conference halls...

A God-complex, or a God-delusion in a ruler is a very dangerous manifestation of dictators. Nigerians beware, and be warned. It did not work in the 1980's and it is not working now. Change change.

The president statement was right. if u are student of political science or international relations, u will understand that there was serious pressure from IMF and World bank to devalue naira which he resisted when he was military head of state. IBB... embarrassed the devaluation of naira which PMB resisted and that led to inflation, general price increase of goods and service, lost of job during IBB. That was the beginning of naira problem.... I'm stand to be corrected

What's happening now is exactly what happened in 1984. Devaluation brought death to Nigeria after Buhari was over-thrown by IBB in 1985. The only thing that remains to be seen is a coup.

With which Army? The Army that is fiercely loyal to Buhari as he is cleaning up the rot that has seen them lost comrades in arms and colleagues.

Guy, there will be no coup so get that notion off your mind.
