Reading comments on this forum could be very nauseating. Where did we get it wrong as a people? The bandwagon praising Jonathan and heaping all sorts of abuse on Buhari. It's crystal clear that most of you need an education. And if the calibre of people here are the supposed leaders of tomorrow, then Nigeria is doomed. I need all of you on the GEJ bandwagon to point out two things. 1.What was the policy direction of GEJ which is worthy of commendation? 2. What is the policy direction of Buhari that is responsible for the economic recession? If you can't provide a logical analysis, please shut your mouth up, going forward. One thing which your biased mind can't appreciate is the fact that GEJ is largely responsible for the mess we are in. Read up Public debt: Public debt stock is much higher than at any time since the Paris Club debt exit of 2006. In 2007, total public debt fell to N2.678 trillion ($3.56billion external debt from $36b, and N2.2trillion domestic debt). But as of end 2013, public debt has increased by more than 300 percent to N8.423trillion ($8.2b external, and N7.1 trillion domestic). (Figure 3). If AMCON debt and other agencies are included, the total debt burden is now over N10 trillion. By end of 2014, Nigeria’s total debt should easily approach over $100b, most of which were accumulated in the past 6 years. Given the well-established negative correlation of debt and economic growth, how has growth been so strong? Foreign reserves: Nigeria’s foreign reserves have followed a pattern similar to the other indicators since the beginning of civilian rule. In the Obasanjo and Yar’Adua periods, reserves high enough to finance, on average over 7 and 10 months of imports respectively. However, in the six years of President Jonathan, it has declined to about 6.3 months of imports. (Figure 4). When compared with other oil exporting African countries, in the first two periods, Nigeria’s foreign reserve accumulation was stronger than those of other countries. However, in the recent period, Nigeria is just about catching up with others. Although stabilization funds exist, the federal government has struggled to replenish them, despite high oil prices. This is how Jonathan bequeathed a failed economy. Counter the argument with facts and not irresponsible comments. 1 Like |

drbre:As nauseating as it may seem to you its more saddening that peoples 'ramblings' here are not abstract its the truth. No one is trying to praise the past president but we just dont understand how the economy can be so mismanaged that the country records economy growth in one year and the next with a take over we are in recession: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/apr/07/nigeria-south-africa-largest-economyhttp://www.economist.com/news/ Now the question people are asking is if the growth came by all these debts. We dont understand how that happened. Also we are more concerned right now about the economy than the debts because we can be able to pay up when the economy booms better than the past govt left it. We hoping that the present govt understands that and work with that. I dont know about the policies they come up with cos we know its propagada what i know is what i see. Where are the investors? Ok patronise your own who are the people running businesses from within and how have they made them accessible and affordable to us. No cash flow everything is on a lock down. You cannot hoard and keep money and expect it to run itself. You cannnot run a oneman show! 1 Like |

malton:Bros, u've spoken so well . While few Nigerians are busy using this hard time to be innovative and overcome the challenges, some are actually lamenting and pointing accusing fingers. Nigerians need to wake up and be more proactive. If u av 1 source of income, this is the time to look inwards, be creative and triple it. Do u even know dt by the time these hard times are over, many would be so thankful it came because it has helped them to become more enterprising. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Missonas: I praise the sincerity and objectivity of your post. Maybe you didn't read my adjuncts and thus you asked how we were reportedly a growing economy one year and d next, due to a change in government, we were plunged into recession. I will still ask that you read the adjuncts in my post, the answers which u seek are there. Suffice to say, consider this... 'Although stabilization funds exist, the federal government has struggled to replenish them, despite high oil prices." That's d submission on Jonathan's economic legacy. If d FG under Jonathan had replenished stabilization funds in a period when there was high oil prices (US$100), the nation would have had somewhat a safety net to revert to presently when there is global recession with oil prices pegged below US$30. Talking about external debts, isn't it curious that GEJ ( now a hero) kept plunging d nation to external debts? Do you realise that the debt is being serviced and all this at even a higher cost cos of d recession? In all of this, the present government remains optimistic that we shall navigate this bend successfully. You may consider listening to Mrs Kemi Adeosun's submissions while disbursing funds to states at the end of July. The non oil sector accounted for over 55 percent of the revenue. This is the change and there is light at the end of the tunnel. I empathise with all citizens, I also feel the brunt of the present reality. Afterall I buy fuel and visit d markets. However, as enlightened minds we should know where the blame really is and not be blinded by sentiments. Peace |
