You know I don't like responding to any of "you people" because it always amounts to sheer waste of energy and time doing so.

Did you see me mention "East" anywhere Do you need glasses to see clearly??

Thank you.

You want to approve a loan of which according to you " details of the proposal is still unclear"?
Smart you!!!.

Using debt to finance infrastructure is a sound strategy world over; debt financing is not a bad thing. However, I am worried, very worried.

Nigeria has an unfortunate history of turning all things sound and prudent into disasters. Would this loan be any different? The people at the top want us all to believe that our institutions have become more transparent and accountable in the period starting from May 29th, 2015 owing to the the stern mien and righteous body odour (language) of Mr. President, every sane person, every right thinking Nigerian knows this not to be the case.

How faithfully would the borrowed funds--In the event the loan request is approved-- be appropriated? How much inflation would hit these contracts? How much of the funds would be judiciously applied? Is this a another case of vultures circling above at the sight of an impending meal?

I would have said: "let us wait, time would tell" but in cases of importance to national growth and prosperity, getting it wrong spells doom for my generation, the one after me and lots more.

We struggled real hard to come off the claws of the Paris Club. I remember how happy well meaning Nigerians were when that historic event happened. The general consensus was: "never again would we be so indebted" But now, it seems we are headily going back to the things we said never again to.

No sane country would have done what Okonjo/OBJ did to our economy,by paying up a whopping $12billion all at once!

Paying up your debt all at once,when you could have staggered it for economic development,does not make you an economic giant or a developed nation.It was a very stupid decision.

A poor man that does not want bank loan to start a business because he is afraid of debt burden ,would probably remain poor for life!

He would eventually end up borrow more money to feed (consumption),rather than to invest. Investment would have brought him wealth that could have catered for both his feeding and business growth.


If properly invested,a loan will always be a lever,rather than a burden.


So are we ready to take the risk of trusting the government,that the loan would be properly invested,or we had rather remain stagnant?

I urge my Igbo brothers to calm down. No matter the harsh economy of the jungle, lions won't feed on grasses. We are still far ahead of every other tribe in the country. Our brains and self belief will see us through. Let us chill and watch them. Nothing lasts forever. He can't use more than 8 years. What goes around comes around. I just like the unity we displayed during the election. No regrets in supporting GEJ.

I taught buhari promised to do things differently, why borrow to finance '' projects '' when he has recovered over #6trillion?.
Only God can save Nigeria from the hands of this deceiver.

Cutting the East out of the loan is nothing but wickedness at best. All Nigerians should share in both the spoils and the responsibility. Do you mean we can pay tax but not enjoy amenities?

They've started arriving again to criticise, insult, and state a billion reasons why the loan shouldn't be approved by the Senate.

These same people wept, wailed and whined endlessly on another thread over how their region was "left out" (even though it was just the usual we-are-being-marginalised lies they flood cyberspace with daily) of the regions where the critical infrastructures are to be sited.

I would embrace any lawful move taken by mr President to take us out of this economic doldrums occasioned largely by the wastefulness of corruption of the Ineffectual Buffoon.

Shagaris my broda, it was d level of corruption in shagaris govt Tht led to d toppling of his govt by d military, it was ridden with all manner of corruption. The army couldn't take it anymore, so they toppled it n but buhari, buh his govt wasn't given enuf time to rip the effort of his govt bfre it was scattered by babangida...Imagine what would have happened if d discipline Buhari was planning to instil n people den had become a way of life for Nigerians wouldn't Nigeria have been a better place for u n I??....

When the state of corruption in Jonathan govt was unbearable, d military couldn't take over, because of d time of military coup has long passed, who did Nigerians turn to the same Buhari....

Truth is no one likes his method, because he takes d proper method of doing tins, buh d proper method takes time to yield results, Nigerians dnt want to suffer n we r naturally impatient people, drive on a Nigerian road n I'll c wah am talking bout... We r too impatient.... So we hate his methods, buh other methods that we have tried have lead us back to d same issue, tht is issue of cutting corners, corruption, stealing and other vices.

Nigerians are ready to be patient with him this time, nd c were the country is heading, as far as I c his moves n I know he is taking the right decisions, even if m hungry, which am not... I am ready to make sure he sees out his tenure n even vote for him a second time

We have to cry wolf my brother, because in the absence of such a cry, the shroud may be passed over our eyes again.

Knowing the present atmosphere on ground, the obvious disenchantment of the East with the Federal government owing to years of neglect and Mr. President's tension rousing statements --5 percenters comes to mind-- and obvious mistrust all Nigerians (not a single region mind you) have with the government when it comes to money and other sensitive issues, it behooves the government to be as transparent as possible in all the processes leading up to the request in the senate.

If the government had been as open as should be, YOU would know the exact details of the proposed loan expenditure, even the senate doesn't! And you say no one should cry wolf?

No brother! We would cry and cry until things are righted.

borrow money from white man, give it to another white man to build one or two things. Any Idi.ot can do that. If the enormous human and natural resource can not be harnessed by the govt to create wealth and progress then the govt is a joke

MrPresident1:
Nigerians have rejected God and wisdom, so they MUST be ENSLAVED.

Buhari's loan is your slavery and destruction!

This loan request does not have anything to do with infrastructure development, you are essentially a devolved people, the people who borrowed money in the past are wiser than this generation, yet the loans they borrowed were wasted, talkless of this lost and useless generation. This loan is about your enslavement. This loan is your slavery.

Buhari's loan is evil!

I see how betrayed you are. But whether it's now or later, we'll have to give the trust to our leaders, the question is why keep what we have to do till later and not now?

As hard as it is to trust, it's what we have to do.

Believe!
