Recession didn't just happen, people stole it into happening....

Now HEAR THE THIEVES

1- I acted based on Jonathan instruction- Dasuki

2- I didn't give order- Jonathan

3- I collected 350M from Dasuki for consultation- Iyorchia Ayu

4- I only collected $30,000 from Dasuki not N100m- Bode George

5-I got N4.6b from Dasuki for spiritual purposes- Bafarawa

6-I got N650M from Dasuki for my Abuja burnt office- Thisday Obaigbena.

7-I got N2.1b from Dasuki for publicity- Dokpesi

8- I got another N100m from Yuguda he didn't tell me from where- Bafarawa

9- I gave N100m each to Odili, Jim Nwobodo Bode George and others- Yuguda

10- The president asked me to change N10B to foreign currency for PDP delegates- Dasuki

11- My boss asked me to get $11M from the CBN- Dasuki account officer.

12- I got order from above to pay Tompolo N13B for Maritime university land.- Nimasa DG.

13- 950m was shared in my house-- shekarau

With all this looting and many more revealed some people are still shouting no sign of change yet, they even say it's political persecution.

But I believe, it is the right thing to do. There must be consequence for crime otherwise Nigeria will not develop.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA....!!!

What about that of 1984 or so when Nigeria went to recession under Buhari

This PDP of a party are jokers. Make Buhari commot so that Jonathan can come back Abi.

Oh! And you forgot to add the Royal father that buys a new Roll Royce every other month.

amagunnerfan:
Is this the same PDP that got us into this mess or another one?

Silly set of idiotas. What did they do with the excess accrual from the oil boom? Who looted the economy dry which led us into this shiit.

Idiotas want Buhari to fix in one year an economy le shoeless used almost 6 years to ruin. Only bigots who religion and tribal sentimentalities have destroyed will take PDP serious.

Was it not d likes of ameachi, fashola and other opposition governors dat pushed for excess accrual to be shared within states? 70% of the pple dat put buhari in power were also referred to as members of pdp for most of the 16 years? Yes, pdp could've done better over 16 years, bt is it any better knowing most of the so called pple dat put us in this mess are the same pple in d current APC administration that are telling us to hold PDP responsible? Telling us they are d one's bringing d change......Please, let's always b constructive....bt if there's one thing I know, it's dat Nigerians living within have a serious case of amnesia when it comes to politics and governance. You have jst highlighted the magnitude of amnesia cases within society.

blueto:
The Truth.

Even if PDP a were bunch of peculators/looters like some people pontificate about them, but the fact that they demonstrated rationality, diligence proficiency in their administration is inconfutable and cozy.
For instance, some of Jonathan's policies and programmes were evaluated by the World Bank and other reputable int'l economic organisations as some of the most effective programmes of its kind globally.

Unlike certificateless cattle rearer, who suddenly became a preferred choice to a Ph.D holder due to some irrational resentments, came on board and started formulating and implementing policies that are inimical to the economy and making goofy statements that are also pernicious to the economy. Fired the major technocrats that kept the economy moving, and replaced them with unmerited northerners, party members, conjugal and consanguine relations.

To be frank, I don't foresee APC ruling for uninterrupted 16yrs like PDP did, because they are just unprepared for governance.

Trust me, you don't want someone like Jonathan to be your President during an economic crisis and you definitely don't want the party that squandered our excess just before the recession hit.

But on a serious note, why is it that in a country of over a 100 million people we had to settle for two lackluster candidates? Why don't we have open primaries like they have in the U.S where the people vote to determine who represents there party in the general elections?
Won't it be good if we could the same thing in Naija where each state sets its own primary date and on that date the people of that state go to the polls to determine who wins there state (person who wins most number of states wins the party nomination) as supposed to just allowing the party cabals to do the picking? I don't know about you but i would rather the people pick there party candidates as supposed to some party insiders.

Ideally, i would have loved to see multiple candidates (upwards of 17) run for the APC nomination and another 17 run for the PDP nomination. Then the people in the various states vote in the primaries to determine who wins the right (the party winner) to represent there party (APC or PDP) in the general election. This way we would have better candidates and better ideas. I wonder why the person who wrote the Naija constitution didn't include this provision in there.

He was someone that was able to keep Nigeria from economic crises, unlike the clueless certificateless cattle rearer that wasted no time in doing so.

Even if the clueless cattle rearer is elected president of US today, he will lead them into recession.

You don't understand how economic recessions work bro. This things are usually cyclical, its not necessarily something a President can keep a country from. At times, economies just take a downturn so its the job of the leaders that be to prepare shock absorbers in the system to cushion the blow which is what President Jonathan failed to do.

The Nigerian economy is built on a very volatile commodity like oil (talk about building your foundation on sand) and yet the fact that his administration had 8 years to prepare us for an oil glut by diversifying the economy and saving our surplus but yet did none of that is just unforgivable. If President Jonathan were a good leader, he would have realized that you can't build an economy on a commodity like oil and would have prepared us for this by leaving us a robust economy able to withstand this recession but his administration never did that, they just squandered and mismanaged our surplus. Its really sad.

It is clear that ninety-nine percent of the wealthy Nigerians today made
their money directly or indirectly from the government coffers either
through the inflation of contracts sum, embezzlement of public funds
and corruption of all sort.
Yet the PDP led government knows this very well but refused to address
the issues to free Nigerians from the hullabaloo of the mess
especially the economic woes. The style of democracy being practiced by the PDP is
being sustained on unconstitutionality, anarchy and day light
embezzlement of the public funds against the express wordings of 1999
constitution of Nigeria yet the PDP led government which is popularly
known as the government full of criminal bystanders at frauds all
times, a government of few.
The criminal bystanders still want to come back to power to devour
what they left.

You seem a very intelligent person. Can you please explain to me, without insults please, how Buhari dragged us into recession? And don't say by his policies if you cannot name those exact policies.

The interesting thing is that PDP does not have what it takes to win PMB if choose to contest in 2019. The permutation obviously does not include SS and SE for PMB to win. All he needs to do is say they word "I will contest in 2019". .
Come to think about it why are Nigerians claiming to be hungry? To me is more of lazy people that are complaining period.

Nigerian has gone into many recessions: even it happened in 2008/2009 under Jonathan. But the effect was not conspicuous because the inflow from oil was still high (over USD100/barrel) coupled with high savings from reserves during OBJ when Iweala was still the Finance Minister, which were used to cushion the consequences.

If you are ready to learn more and liberate yourself from the 'PMB is a dullard crew' who knows nothing about economy than blaming PMB, click on the link below to read what Iweala said recently regarding your question - https://www.naij.com/799712-why-nigeria-wasnt-able-to-save-under-jonathan-okonjo-iweala.html

Its really sad.[/s]

But it has been about a year and some months since buhari have been elected president and why should he keep blaming the past govt for your present and foreseen failures?

The past govt was already diversifying the economy when the gullible zombies voted you in the certificateless cattle rearer that came and obliterated the good efforts by the previous govt.

through the comprehensive Agricultural Transformation Agenda program of the previous govt, they recorded many landmark achievements. Through agriculture they created thousands of jobs across the country. The provision of inputs in 10 Northern states enabled dry season farming; and profitably engaged over 250,000 farmers and youths even during the dry season.

Through the comprehensive Agricultural Transformation Agenda program, inflation fell to 7.8% in October 2013, its lowest since 2008, as a result of higher domestic food production.

they launched the Growth Enhancement Scheme to provide targeted support for seeds and fertilizers to 5 million farmersper year or 20 million farmers within fouryears. Through the scheme, they were providing subsidized inputs to farmers via an e-Wallet program. In fiscal year 2013, an estimated 4.2 million farmers received subsidized inputs. As a result, in 2013, they produced 1.1 million metric tonnes of dry season rice across 10 Northern states; and over 250,000 farmers and youths in these states are now profitably engaged in farming even during the dry season.

they launched Staple Crop Processing Zones to support investments in the entire agricultural value chain. there are significant private investment commitments from agribusiness ventures such as: Flour Mills of Nigeria, the Dangote Group, Syngenta, Indorama, AGCO, and Belstar Capital.

In 2012, 2.2 million metric tonnes of cassava chips were exported, exceedingthe Agricultural Transformation Agenda’s target by over 100%, while the 40% substitution of cassava for wheat has been achieved through research and collaboration with the IITA and Federal Institute for Industrial Research.Similarly, there has been a decline in wheat imports to Nigeria from an all-time high of 4,051,000 MT in 2010 to 3,700,000 MT in 2012.
