One of the strength of every country especially developing countries is foreign reserve. Make they kukuma finish the whole thing na. Buhari has bad luck written all over him since the1980s. They said if some people enter in a house, their aura make it glow while when some enter the same house, it look haunted. Buhari's aura has been haunting Nigeria. Very bad market. Those way dey go see those people wey dey see future, none of them told them.buhari is bad market? From being a robot( the drama surrounding him even make me doubt if he is alive) to being a burden. 69 Likes 4 Shares |

When foreign reserve increases the credit isn't given to Buhari but you despicable souls can blame him whenever it dwindles. sassysure: 9 Likes 3 Shares |

sassysure: Well the oil prices have been on a downward trend for some time (Brent was $63 in December 2019, now $24.51). Add the fact that our breakeven oil price, the price that oil should be for Nigeria to have a surplus budget is $139 per barrel. At the end of the day, our reserves will fall. If we wanted to raise our reserves right now, government would be owing everyone salaries, senators inclusive, and it would be finding it difficult to pay for bills. Buhari is not a good leader, granted, but he wasn't responsible for making Nigeria's economy oil dependent either. 21 Likes 2 Shares |

iluvdonjazzy: Oil is our major earner, and the price of oil has been on a downward trend for some time. Right now, oil is at $24. And it is from our oil earnings that we get money to...you guessed it...fund the reserve. Falling oil prices means that the country does not have enough cash to save...so we have to start relying more on the reserve. (As an example. in 2014, Saudi had $750billion in its reserve, when oil prices started falling. By 2015, the reserve was at $600billion....150bn lost due to falling oil prices. Alarm bells ringing in Riyadh) 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Foreign Reserves Shed $5.09bn In Four Months by Nobody: 2:23pm On Apr 30, 2020 |
iluvdonjazzy: Certainly. One of the reasons why we have a reserve is for times like this... The problem is, for how long can we rely on the reserve? Part of the reason why we are taking loans is because we don't want to eat too much into the reserve. That's why Nigeria should stop relying on selling oil, and selling agric produce and minerals. Best to sell industrial products. 15 Likes 4 Shares |

Mheen! Na taxes go suffer this foreign reserve depletion.Government will aggressively clamped down on companies and business owners for tax. Know of a company already that has downsize already due to tax payments. This is one of the many reasons that will contribute to job losses as well. Sadly, a politician somewhere will use same tax funds for irrelevant things and embezzlement. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ChimaAdeoye: The government may be reckless, but the reason why they are dipping into the reserve is simple. Oil prices have been on a downward trend. Oil was at $63 in December 2019, now it is at $24 Either we take money from the reserves, or we starve....or government owes everyone, and I mean everyone money... Effect of living in a non-diversifed economy...which is what you should be criticizing the government for. 3 Likes 3 Shares |

That's a good one. When the process is bad/faulty, the results will also be faulty. Good process drive good results. If Nigeria were a company, it did be bankrupt in the first 6 months. Who expects Nigeria to work when our decision making processes are wrong ? We don't have fair play in mind. We just do things based on affiliation, tribe, bigotry. We ask alot of questions everyday about issues, happenings, appointments, sharing formulas, so many things around us but we get no answers in return. Let us keep fighting corruption(our shadow). Hypocrisy means fighting in others, same things we make excuses for ourselves. 2 Likes |
