We should learn to attach economic gain to our Afrocentric foreign policy
We fought Wars IN Liberia, Sierra Leone etc .
We left for Chinese business men to dominate. We should learn to position our business men to take over after these feats

chily11:
Of which they'll go back to borrow...
Truly common sense is not common

ZarahBuhari:

Nigerians never chop belleful and this one go dash another country a whole $500k

Guide777:
I wonder why a drowning man, should start rescuing another drowning man.

Alanzazani:


We never see beyond our noses in this country. Never plan for the long term. This is a very good assertion. After all the blood and swear what did we gain? We just carried out bags and left th we countries for the Chinese

themanderon:
A country going cap in hand to beg the Chinese for loans is busy giving out money to another country to conduct elections without first cleaning up its own electoral process.
Misplaced priorities.

Rossikki:


Why not? A man could seek to rescue his drowning child, wife, or friend, even if he himself is in trouble. Didn't they teach you that in your church? Or was the pastor only talking about helping yourself, as usual?

Rossikki:


Nigeria is not going cap in hand and begging anybody for loans. Loans are offered, or requested, and not 'begged' for, in the international financial system. Loans are transactions in which both parties benefit. They are not 'favours'.

Oh, and the USA is the biggest debtor nation on earth - owing trillions of dollars to China and others, but it is also the biggest aid donor on earth, so y
our points make no sense.
