MadamExcellency:


Which deficit and a phantom five months are you talking about when the 2014 budget ran through till 31st March, 2015? Have you forgotten that 2015 only got expended on May 10th, 2016, this year. Do you know the percentage recurrent expenditure in 2015 budget?

You think you can come to a public forum to repeat the same rubbish you do among your gullible friends and be allowed to get away with it?

Stop fabricating lies to shoot your conscience. Enough of these obfuscation

What do you mean by engine running? Zero will to save or invest. Total wastage of an Oil Boom.

As soon as the Crude Oil Price dropped, we borrowed to pay salaries. Yet you say Engine was running.

There was no engine running but an Oil Boom.

Cromagnon:

name one policy of his(adesina) that succeeded,just 1
fertilizer we no see
mumu(thinking this is america) spent 60billion on phones,phones fa.
banned fish when fish farmers association told him we do not possess the capacity to produce.
cassava bread we no see
rice we no see
thank goodness for anambra,and kebbi rice policy
integrity and not lofty ideas are what are needed for our country's development

The Federal Government’s policy on rice import is designed to save the country $2.5 billion yearly, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Akinwumi Adesina has said.

The government placed a new policy on rice import to promote local rice production and attain self-sufficiency by next year.

Adesina explained that high-quality Nigerian rice is in the market, adding that the country will be a net exporter of rice.

“Today, Nigeria is feeding itself, since a nation that cannot feed itself is simply at the mercy of others subject to the volatility of global commodity markets. Soon, Nigerian rice will become global exhibition.

“Our rice self-sufficiency policy was directed at saving Nigeria $2.5 billion annually and putting this into the hands of our rice farmers and rural communities,” Adesina was quoted to have said in a statement.

THE Backward Integration Programme (BIP ) policy in the rice sector put in place by the federal ministry of Agriculture to boost local rice production with the approval of an inbuilt tariff/levy differential deliberately skewed in favour of investors has been commended by stakeholders. The policy, which is said to have attracted more than $1.6 billion of private sector investments, allows investors to temporarily import brown or finished rice to bridge the present gap in supply and demand.

Please honestly tell me where there was any tribalism in my post.
You just saw my moniker and started assuming all manner of odd assumptions. Maybe you are guilty of what you accuse me of.

I am not praising mediocrity; only telling you that this man called buhari is not ready for the task of governance.

Anyway, Jonathan wasted money.
Let just sit down, fold our arms and pray for crude oil price to go back up.
The oil money is gone for good. No point whining about it.

Is Gej the reason why a President spent 6 months without ministers
Is GEj the reason why INEC lacks RECs in 28 states. Tomorrow, you'll say GEJ spoilt INEC.


I made this point before and i'll reiterate
FIRS raised 2.3 trillion in 2016 H1. If all goes well, they'll match that in H2 giving us 4.6 trillion
That's over 70% of our budget.
What are we doing with that?


Nobody will lend us any money because we are not serious

miky:
Useless government, how can u suspend something without no plan in sight.. They delayed cabinet, delayed budget, delayed devaluation

Yehman:
The zoo has fallen!
Proudly 5% cos we never expected much from a government built on lies and propaganda.

Meanwhile, I heard that hunger and suffering makes people to be sound and objective in reasoning. Let's see how Strong this proposition will hold in 2019.

On economic recession:
I stand with competitive federalism via fundamental constitutional change, including fiscal federalism—taxation powers, rights over natural resources, wage setting, fiscal responsibility, etc – breaking from unitary-federalism of uniform standards to multi-speed federalism with only minimum standards.
#i stand with true federalism

igboboy3:



Please enough with this massive wastage excuse

Nigeria is not poor by any measure
FIRS has realised over 2.3 trillion naira in remittances to the FG in the last six months
Osinbajo claims that Buhari has saved over a trillion naira by not paying subsidies
Magu says that EFCC has recovered billions of naira in stolen fund


Yet, there is no money for budget.

This government is simply clueless

Businessideas:

Please remember to visit premium news website to cancel the part of the original report stating that your hero,GEJ, in his usual manner, supervised the stealing of a whopping N57billion through the ewallet scam.
You all can run but you can not hide.

if you handover the norwegian government to buhari I bet you he would still go around yapping about corruption whilst crashing the exisitng economy...buhari is associated with suffering and stiff rule...

He knows nedt to nothing about how real economies work...infact he has no waec..

AreaFada2:


Yep.

They came in with so much hate and bigotry but bereft of ideas. Hate can help you brainwash tribalistic/sectarian Nigerians but it cannot help you formulate and implement good policies for national development.

It is now becoming obvious to them that whatever the flaws in GEJ's policies & implementations, most of his policies were well-thought through: agric policy, removal of fuel subsidy, continued and new ideas on national rail, e-payment to wield out ghost workers, less effort to pursue corrupt people but instead stop corruption from happening, FOI Bill, free and fair elections, respect for legal pronouncements, etc. Yet, they demonised all BUT now gradually coming back to them. But they will have wasted much time by then.

Despite all claim of corruption against GEJ's govt, Nigerian economy grew fast. Fuelled by private sector boom.Petrol/oil is less than 30% of our GDP.

So Nigeria's massive growth was not based on oil, but sound policies, lead by an international economist of repute, NOI.

If we have less oil income, should policy makers not carefully consider that fact first?

TheGoodJoe:


If you bring the brightest Economic mind to take over the government after GEJ's wastage, the person will have problems running us out of this.

Back in 2013 when Crude was sold at high prices, we were still borrowing. So how do you expect Buhari to perform magic after such astronomical wastage.

You can make jokes about challenges we are facing but at the end, those who celebrated GEJ's corruption lifestyle are complaining about economy.

anigbajumo:


Fear God,stop deceiving people here....when was oil less than 30% of our GDP??

Izonpikin:
hehehehehe....its all about gej...gej gej and gej...why dont we call this new administration gej.... .....incompetent cretins running this administration.

Like i said give buhari the norwegian government and watch it crash or stagnant...he sucks big time at management....

Standing5:
I already said he spent 5 months. Stop feigning stupidity. He left enough deficit is what I was driving at. Your brain is to weak to get it?

TheGoodJoe:


You think he is deceiving people but he actually does not know that he does not know.

igboboy3:


Just google "Adesina fertiliser" and the top results are stories that show Adesina winning international awards for his fertiliser program. He becames the Forbes Africa person of the year in recognition of his efforts to curb corruption in fertiliser subsidy.

Try and read. Don't come here spouting lies.


Or wait. .
maybe all those global bodies that gave him awards are owned by 'ipob yoots'

hehehehehe....its all about gej...gej gej and gej...why dont we call this new administration gej.... .....incompetent cretins running this administration.

Greenback:

lolss dem bash u,flog u left right center nø be small..next time comment with sense and dont just comMESSnt. Lolss


op,bubu shud just resign or shud be given the brazillian dose

TheGoodJoe:


The problem is, people like you do not understand that when we ask why, it is mostly about the past. Why are we in this economic crisis now?

It is because the last administration wasted a windfall. You can not change the truth. Let us pray for a miracle as it happened during OBJ's reign. Without the bloodshed in Iraq.

Izonpikin:
ok let me start blaming lord lugard too for making all of us converge here...bro it is stale to continue to blame a predecessor......buhari is clueless about how recent economies run...thats a fact,....agree to that..buhsri is also clueless to diplomacy the reason for the wahala in the nigef delta...buhari has his faults and mistakes he has msde so far to sdd to the economic woe we experience right now...the problem is you wont agree..even the likes of soludo has chided the president...


Be truthful to yourselfand stop this sycophancy...

TheGoodJoe:


If President Buhari goes, who do you want to rule?
