But I'm already a successful man. So, the money spent on me wasn't wasted.

It's you that need to work hard and pray for direction in life. grin

Haha.. Successful, ..... dont let the 30k get to you, people earn higher..

Note: the unsuccessful are usually prone to call themselves successful. Empty vessels makes the most noise.

You only see the double-digit inflation and remain blind to the growth rate predicted. The inflation rate was at a time around 18%.

Generally, the prediction is good for a country which was recently looted into recession and just coming out of it.

It's good for a country which has been import-dependent for almost 50 years and recently taking steps to stem that tide.

It's a good outlook for a county whose only major dollar earner is crude oil.

It may interest you to know that Economics is my background. Una go just dey comment nonsense online just because you can.

A prediction is saying the will be an increase in Islamic insurgency inspired bloodbaths ( like I have predicted ) and another bout of languishing economy yet you say it's a good outlook ?are you ok? It's only a good out look to you Buharists who are happy that Nigeria is being returned back to the 16th century of Islam Dan Fodio

You are celebrating a 1 percent GDP growth ( even Abacha delivered a consistent 4.8% despite being a pariah under sanctions and selling oil below 12 dollars)
, double digit inflation and population explosion ?
You say you majored in economics form where again ? It must be from Boko haram school of economics

Actually 1.9%. Need I remind you that the dynamics of Abacha's era have changed negatively for us as a country?

I have no time to lecture you on basic economic principles but keep it in your empty skull that those principles are rooted in "cause and effect". Not on magic.

The economist are confused set of people. Today, They'll predict buhari to lose, tomorrow, they predict buhari to win.
We don't care about predictions anymore... They should stay away from predicting Nigerian politics.

President Muhammadu Buhari will win next year’s election, The Economist has reported.

The respected magazine has also predicted that the opposition coalition may collapse before the general election.


But Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar yesterday said the forecast of the London-based magazine failed to meet the attributes of objectivity, balance and fairness.

According to The Economist in its latest edition, “The World in 2019”, there is little hope that Islamist insurgency in the Northeast will end.

In a country appraisal for Nigeria under “The world in numbers”, the magazine said: “The president, Muhammadu Buhari, will win re-election in February, as a new opposition coalition may collapse before the vote.

“Given the outlook for continuing political weakness, there is little prospect of progress in the fight against the Islamist insurgency in the north, nationalism in the oil-producing Delta and secessionism in the Biafra region.

“Market-based reforms will languish, holding back growth yet again.”

The magazine’s other predictions for Nigeria are: GDP growth (1.9%); GDP per head-$2, 410(PPP: $6,020); inflation (13.6%); Budget balance (5GDP) is -2.0 and population (201.0m).




In a separate report, the Foreign Correspondent of The Economist, Aman Rizvi, distanced himself from the official position of his magazine.

He said the election will be close, with the PDP having a slight edge.

Rizvi said: “Mr. Buhari’s approval ratings have languished below 50 % for most of 2018. Ominously, he has been hit by a wave of defections to the PDP.


“Desertions to the APC four years ago, by many of the same people, felled ex-President Goodluck Jonathan.

“Mr. Buhari’s electoral opponent in 2019, Atiku Abubakar, is one such double-turncoat. He is also a septuagenarian, billionaire businessman, former vice president and three-time presidential aspirant.

“With Mr. Abubakar distrusted for his wealth and opportunism, the election will be close. Its outcome will hinge on who arouses less apathy.

“So, who will win? Many Nigerians do not care. The back-and-forth floor-crossing has convinced them that the same people will be in charge either way. The PDP holds a slight edge, if only because expectations for Mr. Buhari were higher and his failure to meet them was more recent.”

But Atiku has rejected the latest prediction of The Economist.

A statement by the Special Assistant on Public Communication and Strategy to Atiku, Mr. Phrank Shaibu, said the forecast was a “poorly-executed hatchet job”.

Speaking with our correspondent, the National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Lanre Issa Onilu, said: “I will say that The Economist is just living up to its reputation. What the magazine has said is not new to most Nigerians; it is a report of the reality.

“I am not surprised that PDP did not find the report palatable. For a political party that has been living in denial, instead of addressing issues as copiously enumerated by The Economist, PDP has chosen to behave like a baby whose toy has just been taken away from him or her.

“PDP lacks credibility and any publication that is worthy of its own reputation will be taking a huge risk by making any attempt to dress PDP in a borrowed robe. PDP is a damaged product that has thrown up a discredited candidate. We can only commend The Economist.”

Asked if the 2019 presidential poll will be a close race, Onilu said: “We think if The Economist conducts further research, they will come to the conclusion we have already reached to the effect that next year’s presidential election is a no-contest.”

He dismissed insinuations that PDP might have a slight edge over APC.

“No. PDP cannot have a slight edge,” Onilu added.
