Tinubu is synonymous with State side hyper corruption and nothing else , I don't remember him being Elon Musk or him having a hit software .
Do you know he owns 2% share In Intel? One of the Yoruba kings I can't remember the name now own 2% share of Rolls-Royce.....it's not about been the head of a software company or just being a politician what you do with your money matters....hope you understand....

Thank you brother. They think we are fools. The vitriol the deploy obsessively against BAT is not that of normal political dislike. It is pure and highly personalized hatred which no Igbo can ever justify harboring for Tinubu as the man did them no wrong. Ever.

He worked for Buhari same as many Igbo and SS leaders worked for GEJ and lost. Igbos, because they are haters, cannot accept this. They have transferred hate on Tinubu and Yorubas as the arrowhead of the defeat of their messiah Jonathan when any educated man knows that it is democracy that defeated GEJ and his slavish Igbo disciples. Like you said, Yoruba ronu.

I too hate the foolish Yorubas who join Igbos, a people crying privately over the dearth of quality leadership afflicting their region, to savage Tinubu.

How many leaders have come out to speak clearly about palliative for Nigerians as Tinubu has done only for Igbos to savagely attack him? Their worthless Chinaman Obi is busy forming holier-than-thou and attacking elite materialism instead of proferring solutions.

This thread now was started by one of them as an invitation to others to come and feast on Tinubu safe in the knowledge Yorubas are too easy going to talk. Well I will give Igbos hell here till they begin speaking respectfully about Jagaban or till I get banned for life.

Ogbeni, I don't care if you kill yourself @ss-licking Tinubu. My issue is your persistent pairing of his name with the word "leader".

Who ordained your bullion-van criminal Yoruba leader? Is SW APC now the mouthpiece of the Yoruba nation?

Let us be realistic here, If you have background knowledge of Economics u we give to APC national leader I'm in the same page with Him sentiment apart.if we print more currency to pull out our economy from recession is not bad, because I know we can still mop out the currency when the need arise. I give to him.

leokid866:

It's not about just printing money....Tbills will be issued....basically the money will be a loan....like borrowing money from the future.....which will be paid back.

This guys are so dumb. Part of me wants this situation to play out just so these dullard can appreciate what Tinubu is saying that some are deliberately playing politics with.

Yet I know it is average Nigerians who will suffer most and begin killing each other so we just have to pray the FG listens to the likes of Tinubu and focus on innovative solutions for a very challenging period where all rules effectively go out of the window.

There are some now, like hateful Igbos and the envious Afenifebi, who just automatically say opposite of what Tinubu proposes. If Jagaban says the world is round they will say it is flat just to oppose him even when they know the truth. Tiring and redundant.

Not the first time stock will collapse. You can't print money and put in stock market. It's a high risk investment. You can't print money and dash to Nigerians. The simple solution is to adopt other monetary instruments. When money failed in Egypt they used their lands to buy food.

Hi

The money will incentivize socio-economic buoyancy within Nigeria that is vital for survival. Which manufacturer will stay open if buyers cannot pay for their products? Which farmer will continue farming to then give away his crop for free.

Money is a repository of an intangible value system that creates a reward for productivity. No one will be motivated to create nice clothing or shoes if they know they won't be paid after doing so.

Match this with a Nigeria racked with hunger and with up to 90% of the population not having any income from work for 2 weeks or so and little or no savings.

Real problems call for real solutions not daydreaming sentiments attached to tribalistic hate of certain individual.
Read the response I gave to leokid. Once your currency starts to fail you have to adopt other measures. Printing it won't solve the problem. Printing it while your ECONOMY IS STAGNANT is pure INSANITY.

Allow the Corona pass first. Most major companies are already shutdown except oil and gas. Primarily what we need now is food, water, and medications. Hopefully the government has been sincere about our food production in this country. Let the government pay with other forms of instruments.

Sharrap!!! Kill yourself if I call Tinubu a leader which he is. Any person who is successful or plans to be will not be automatically disdainful of wealthy people.

When you people can prove Tinubu committed a crime using bullion vans to transport his own cash then we can talk.

Otherwise it is clear you are just a loser and hater.

Afenifere is just being bitter. I'm sure most of the pple writing trash here didn't even bother to read through. Even if they did, it won't matter. The suggestion is from their supposed enemy I guess.

There's no doubt the idea might help cushion the effect of the pandemic on our economy if only we stay true to the main reason another embezzle.

People need to learn, reason well before making comment. You shouldn't allow hatred becloud your sense of reasoning. It's a good thing if someone who believes he knows what can help us at this point as a nation comes forth and offer his advice. Not us jumping at them like a rabies infected dog trying to tear them down. Especially here on NL, all you guys are good at is to condemn, castigate, nail and abuse your leaders possibly because of some stupid tribal or political reasons. At a time like this when the whole world seems to be crumbling, every nation is looking for the antidote to the menace that has strucked and left us wounded both medically and economically. People are putting their heads together looking for solutions, but the children of perdition are here thinking like fools.

BAT is not your minister of finance neither is he Ur CBN governor so if u have a trust issue u should know where to channel Ur grievances. He is a leader and he has a right to especially at a time like this to advise the pple in authority just the same way u and I can do the same.

At least, he's been able to call our attention to the fact that the economy needs to be adequately monitored too. The economy is dying and needs to be checked. You all should save Ur energy and ask urself if he's the only leader in we have in this country. Why is Baba Iyabo not saying anything about the economy now?? Or FFK?? Their own area of specialization is to abuse the sitting president just like urself.. They probably don't know anything about economics grin grin ;Dsmh!!

That tells you the level of intelligence of people handling the affairs of Nigeria. What now happens if he becomes Nigerian president? That means when economic goes bad he would print more money instead of finding a solution.

Problems of inflation
Why is inflation such a problem?

Fall in value of savings. If people have cash savings, then inflation will erode the value of your savings. £1 million marks in 1921 was a lot. But, due to inflation, two years later, your savings would have become worthless. High inflation can also reduce the incentive to save.
Menu costs. If inflation is very high, then it becomes harder to make transactions. Prices frequently change. Firms have to spend more on changing price lists. In the hyperinflation of Germany, prices rose so rapidly; people used to get paid twice a day. If you didn’t buy bread straight away, it would become too expensive, and this is destabilising for the economy.
Uncertainty and confusion. High inflation creates uncertainty. Periods of high inflation discourage firms from investing and can lead to lower economic growth.
More on problems of inflation

Printing money and national debt
Governments borrow by selling government bonds/gilts to the private sector. Bonds are a form of saving. People buy government because they assume a government bond is a safe investment. However, this assumes that inflation will remain low.

If governments print money to pay off the national debt, inflation could rise. This increase in inflation would reduce the value of bonds.
If inflation increases, people will not want to hold bonds because their value is falling. Therefore, the government will find it difficult to sell bonds to finance the national debt. They will have to pay higher interest rates to attract investors.
If the government print too much money and inflation get out of hand, investors will not trust the government and it will be hard for the government to borrow anything at all.
Therefore, printing money could create more problems than it solves.

Hyperinflation in Germany during the 1920s
inflation

Inflation was so bad in Germany that money became worthless. Here a child is using money as a toy. Money was used as wallpaper and to make kites. Towards the end of 1923, so much money was needed, people had to carry it about in wheelbarrows. You hear stories of people stealing the wheelbarrow, but leaving the money.

Printing more money is exactly what Weimar Germany did in 1922. To meet Allied reparations, they printed more money; this caused the hyperinflation of the 1920s. The hyperinflation led to the collapse of the economy.

the value of money is dependent on the amount of goods it can purchase at every given time. We are currently observing a sit at home order meaning that people are no longer working especially those that deal with agricultural products. Printing more money without having goods to be purchased with the money will only lead to increase in demand and decrease in supply which effectively renders the money useless.

But of what value would our currency be to those who we are buying from? The USD is not the same as the naira. It's value nears that of a natural resource such as gold.

The FG can give other things in exchange for goods and services. This method is preferable than printing notes. Nigeria is blessed with resources and I believe we can use this to survive.

Printing more money simply means government would increase expenditure. This will simply lead to inflation if such more money chase few goods and services in the economy.

YORUBA RONU

It's understandable if an Igbo man hates Tinubu, because of the perceived power tussle between Yorubas & Igbos. Igbos have never voted Yoruba man to become Nigeria president, MKO Abiola won only Anambra in 1993, Bashiri Tofa won their remaining 4 states. The Obasanjo they claimed they voted for was a lie, they voted for PDP, not Obasanjo they didn't have any other choice because the other option was a typical Yoruba party AD which had Olu Falae as candidate and he did not get 2% votes in the whole South East.
It's evidently clear Igbos are wiser than some gullible Yorubas that are joining them in crusade to bring down Tinubu at all cost, they hate Tinubu because they are the one that enjoyed Jonathan regime more than any tribes in Nigeria, more than South South even. Yoruba ronu o, omo eni oni sedi bebere, kafi ileke si idi elomiran.

You lots employed this same bolded line in foisting the current grossly-incompetent and irresponsible leadership on hapless Nigerians. The same ethno-religious politics you played to install the calamitous buhari regime that has brought nothing but pains, hunger and anguish on Nigerians is what you are scheming again.
