Perhaps we should have used our wealth to build up industry rather consumption. Looking back , that was not a great time . It was a time of collosal waste of opportunity. While we were busy consuming , South Korea was sending tens of thousands of nurses and doctors to Europe to help generate the forex for their industrial revolution. They had produced so many doctors and nurses from their educational system that they had no choice. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

Wrong comparison. N3,980 of 1982 value is not d same as that of today. Infact value for value N3980 then is almost N1m-N1.5m today. All d same,d naira has been battered by both d fisherman and d cattle rearer. Lets hope d intellectual wud be our saving grace. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Truth be told if we had a good leadership then things wouldn't have been bad by now .look at the Europeans their currency does not depreciate in the world rather it appreciate......industrialization happens to be the ultimate way of stabilizing an economy. but wait oh! somebody took over as a military head of state around that year....oh! the same mistake was repeated in 2015.hmm! 4 Likes 1 Share |

Subscription money Though it will be very hard to gather that kind of money at that particular time, cos I imagine what the person that earn #150 monthly will go through before buying this kind of car. Nonetheless, basic needs like food, transport, clothing and shelter were not too neck cutting. Nigeria will be great again. 1 Like 1 Share |
