The local banks are complicit in concealing stolen wealth by public officials and their cronies. Rather than dip hands into the pension funds, which obviously will be threatened during repayment, the government should influence or activate any emergency law that allows for these ‘excess’ stolen funds be seized and used for the public good. It is time to be brutal with those who have led the nation and its people to this threat if extinction. Enough is Enough! We cannot sit idly and watch man’s inhumanity to man!

AreaFada2:

There were physicians in Jesus' time. Most people didn't rely on miracle. Plagues always existed. And man learnt from them.

Many infectious diseases that were deadly 200 years ago have either been eradicated through vaccination or now mostly treatable with medication.

If Westerners (most of whom are atheists) stood there chanting God and Jesus you won't have this social media or the device you are using now.

Anybody can believe in whatever God or not, do not force it on those who choose not to believe.
Even the Pope and Western churches, despite their dwindling flock, have stopped church service. The Vatican has even cancelled the usual Easter gathering ahead.

We black just use religion to become indolent.
You that is challenging others for their belief or lack of, can you use your religiosity to cure Corona Virus?

Those largely atheist Westerners will soon develop a vaccine. Science is not miracle. It is pure hard work over time. Not from indolence disguised piety.

A true believer uses his God given talent to impact mankind. Let your work entice others to your faith. Many you call atheists are displaying their faith through work. Faith through action.

Happy Sunday.

Then they will now tax me again and use the tax money to pay back the pension........

How is this even logical, what manner of fuckery is this.............to what extent will this people keep playing with our lives

So someone will come to you to borrow money and then he will be taxing you every day, then when the money is complete he will now give it back to you.....ABI OLORI BURUKU LAWON PEOPLE YI

Why can't der just print money and fund it?

Money becomes worthless if too much is printed. If the Money Supply increases faster than real output then, ceteris paribus, inflation will occur. If you print more money, the amount of goods doesn't change. ... If there is more money chasing the same amount of goods, firms will just put up prices. A case study is Venezuela, a country in South America. Trust me, you don’t want to experience or live in a country suffering from Hyper-inflation. You will buy an ordinary toothpick for 60,000 naira and a bathroom slippers for 3 million naira or more.

They shouldn't build any infrastructure again, they should leave it until oil price is back up. We will go back to how our forefathers were travelling in those days i.e the use of donkeys, horses and even camels. Please leave peoples sweat, thank you.

Which road have this govt ever built? They budget so much for infrastructure year in year out and nothing is done. There is no road you ply in this country that is smooth and standard.yet so much is budgeted. While others are improving on their roads, we are yet to get it right.
larot78:
God will purnish this people ooo..ls it by force that they must build roads ..this money is for pensioner's ..its should not be tampered with..Once its been touched there will be difficulties in payback.. I am not in support of the move no not at all..and to think that most of the funds would not be well utilized and siphoned... I hate to also add that this government is not pple oriented and the welfare of the citizen is not thire priority.

Money is not the colorful paper you are holding in your hand.

Money is the value the colorful paper you are holding in your hand represents.

And that's because money is the medium of exchange (of value).

I hope you get that?

So your main focus should be on creating more value rather than printing more papers.

To tell you how meaningless the idea of printing more paper is, think of your ordinary airtime which you can transfer to another person.

I hope you know that is also a form of digital money without even needing to print anything?

My friend, Nigeria is on its way to Zimbabwe and Venezuela.

You put it very well. My problem is why Nigerians cannot put these together and realize that it equals DEVALUATION!

There is no difference between printing money, Oil Money and Devaluation.

What were we selling when Nigerian Pound equals British Pound?

We were feeding the whole of West Africa. There were RESTRICTIONS on imports. You could only leave Nigeria with One Hundred Pounds after the War.

So how could you import new, old, used and junk goods?

If you buy Hausa carvings, slippers: Igbo carvings, palm oil or Yoruba Omolagidi or Aso Oke and take it with you to England and America.

Better still, Okrika and Ijebu made.

Boy oh boy, you were in money.

From responses here Nigerians know we have a problem with the way the country is being run.
We owe ourselves and future generations a country we can all be proud of.
How long are we going to be this timidly misled? Democracy allows for accountability and we should call for it with one voice.

Good morning a few good Nigerians. Word of advice, if you don't want to lose your sanity because of the insane thievery in govt and bastardization and raping of the country relocate and start a family somewhere else, because the way things look, Nigeria is irredeemable .

IMASTEX:

This is already the option as it stands to many. The politicians are ready to sell the lands of if there is nothing left to loot.

The West doesn't want Africans, it time for Nigerian to take back their country.

What cure? Men are praying. That's my point and if no cure comes in months and the death toll rise you too will join. Now my question Is why are they praying to God if there is no God?

Civil or evil servants are the most useful workers in this country, all they do is sit in the comfy chairs of their offices and steal money or demand bribes, their pay packets should be stripped down to free money for these infrastructural projects, that is how to do business as a government, cut off all the unproductivity sources in the system and pump money into the areas that encourage productivity.

Any monies taken out of the pension funds will be used to service the $100 billion debt, Nigeria is broke and the government is looking for any source of revenue or funds to keep the country from defaulting on its foreign debts.

The country is on its last legs.
