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.

Samunique:
.Buhari does not only need to quit but he must apologize to Nigerians for destroying this country and also for his numerous lies and fake promises during campaign.

Buhari the scammer !!!

blueto:

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.

About 200 women in Benue State were trained on how to make compost for farming and 360 farmers in the same state, were trained on climate change adaptability in agriculture. The environment and farming in Benue state got a boost from about 600 men and women in Benue state who participated in training on how to be environmentally better farmers.

they established community woodlots of 10 hectares each in Plateau and Kogi (10ha) states. they restored 10 hectares of degraded forest in Achareni Forest Reserves in Kogi state and rehabilitated 10 hectares degraded forest reserves in Niger state. the administration also launched Presidential Initiative on Coastal and River Bank protection on flood in Asa River (Kwara State). they established two skill acquisition centresto train people on the fabrication of solar -powered grinding machines in Kaiama and Baruten in Kwara State. and so on!

What policies has Buhari projected to diversify the economy?

kings09:
I don't like both PDP n APC but APC is the worse wit nothin to offer. Buhari doesn't even hv a clue as to wat to do. If u check well, I tink Buhari has mental n health issues i.e. the ear cld still be bothering him plus other old age sickness dat may hv nt bn disclosed to Nigerians. I say dis because a leader in his right senses wld hv acted urgently considering the economic situation even on d the short term, but not in dis case.

massinola:
He will never do that. If he would, why in God's name will a 75 year old man be struggling for power as if he wants to take it with him to the grave. He's so power drunk.

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.

Paperwhite:
In civilized setting leaders who felt they have not shown responsible leadership resigns voluntary to preserve their integrity.This is & will never be possible in a country like Nigeria where the APC rode fraudulently to power based on lies & propaganda.Since the APC(All Promises Cancelled) advocated resignation by the PDP when things were far better then than now,it will be more honourable to justified that action now than ever.

d only reason why nigeria is into recession is becos of buari's economic ideology. buari is a socialist. dat has been his ideology since military rule in 1983. he believes in d system of ''gather n share''. a system were d govt plays a prime n central role in economic activities as confessed by one of d vice president's special adviser. unfortunately for buari, his ideology n principle of ''gather n share'' for d good of d community (socialist communalism) is old skool n totally outdated. china ditch communalism as an economic system since 1970s.
nigeria slide into recession in 1983 majorly becos of his socialist communalist policies (command n control economy). it is d same reason why nigeria slide into recession in 2016 today. if d current president were a capitalist, nigeria would never have slide into recession. yes d con3 will record slow growth due to falling oyel prices but it will NEVER get to recession. socialism draged nigeria into recession.
do u know why buari want PDP dead do u know why buari keep attacking PDP for destroying nigeria he is not just attacking PDP for political sake. he is attacking PDP becos PDP was capitalist inclined. buari detest capitalism to his bone. he sees it as corruption. to buari, PDP's capitalist policies enshrined corruption n destroyed nigeria. so d best way to kill corruption (capitalism) according to him is to reverse n kill every policies of PDP from 1999 to date.
every time u see buari attacking PDP, have it at d back of ur mind dat he is attacking capitalism. northerners in general ar communalist.

It could have been better if PDP that ruled for 16 years can handle this question first.

ilynem:

Wow. So let me get this straight. I might be wrong but capitalism is when factors of production is owned by private individuals. I might also be wrong, but I believe Nigeria is running a mixed economy and private individuals own majority of the factors of production. Are u telling me that we are In recession because buhari wants to turn our economy into a socialist economy? Seriously? I wasn't born 1983 so I don't know what happened then but this excuse of yours is just sickening. So you mean to say the falling oil price can't drive us into recession? What even determines exchange rate? Let me tell u. Supply and demand of our currency. The higher the demand for the naira, the stronger it would be. With the falling oil price and since oil is the only things we export, demand for our currency has dropped. This has made imports relatively more expensive and so demand for dollars high. What we are suffering is imported inflation because we import everything we consume. This can't be solved by spending our way out of it because that will only mask the problem. The only way to solve this is diversification and it takes time. I don't even want to go into corruption of past governments because that has been over flogged. U can get a quick solution now, that is government releasing money and we spending our way out of recession, but do u know what? We will still import everything and we will still have the same problem in the future. Or we can take the long hard solution which is diversification and start to export products we have comparative advantage in thereby strengthening our naira. This is the route this government has taken. I might not be too smart, but I think this is a better explanation than your socialism one. Cheers

What happened to the 2016 BUDGET implementation of Apc nearly four years ruling Blame on baby.

Omonigeriarere:


Crying baby! If blaming the originator of your past failure is a crime, then you have no point in blaming your present manager because he is preparing you for better future.

In other words, where you are today is as a result of your yesterday's action, where you will be tomorrow will be determined by how you manage your today.

Grow up kid.

You guys will soon end up in Apc recession throats.
