But why would they do that on purpose?

Well, I won't say they are doing it on purpose... They have sunk the nation so far down into the toilet that even if they wish to take her back up, the road back is so terribly torturous and perilous that they will simply prefer to keep covering the decaying and rotten wound.

The next president will likely continue the cover up, while equally enriching himself and his inner circle till there is nothing left to cover or hide!!! Till there is no more nation left to loot and plunder!!!... Till the current dwarf becomes dead and buried!!!

The same set of vultures that gave you Buhari are packaging another skeleton for sale. As predicted, some ethnic jingoists are already supporting him. Tomorrow they will start blaming the politicians who make less than 0.0001% of the population for the predicament they find themselves grin grin grin

I laugh at those running this country. You can not impoverish the country and expect growth.

The economy thrives when the people thrive.

Stop elephant projects and start investing in the growth of small businesses.

Stop useless policies that affect small businesses like, Ban Crypto, Ban Twitter, Tax the people to death. Any opportunity to clamp on the people.

Until these elites get it, our currency will keep swinging jangle over.

I beg to differ Sir.Any nation that fails to shore up its foreign exchange through sustainable input like manufacturing, agro-export and other science and tech driven entities can only expect to see what we are currently witnessing. The dwindling gains of FOREX in Nigeria is very deserving.
And let's face it, the true value of naira should be between 800 to 1000 naira /dollar if the CBN allows market forces and demand and supply to take its course. What do we produce? We are a consuming nation. This economic whirlwind that's blowing was caused. It could have been averted and I dare say that it can still be averted. A nation that sits on top of wealth, but can not harness it. While I was Nigeria, I worked as a controls engineer in deep offshore facilities for different multinational oil companies. You need to see how natural gas is burnt off to the atmosphere, and yet the government complains of its inability to generate sufficient electrical power to run factories, businesses and homes. A nation that produces one of the best grade of crude oil, but can't refine a barrel of it and still relying on a low grade, sulfur-prone substandard refined products . Please cut that.

Over the years, successive government have failed to harness the gains made from crude oil export to diversify the economy.Buhari is no different. Stop blaming AbokiFx. And You and I have have been beneficiaries of their magnanimity.Does AbokiFx mint dollar? Have you ever asked yourself the cost of running the different arms of government in Nigeria. Nigeria is a very poor nation.Yes we are.Our natural, economic and human resources amounts to nothing when they are not put to good use.

Middle class has been wiped out completely in Nigeria. Now it's either you're among the 1% wealthy that includes politicians and elite, or you're among the 19% poor or 80% dirt poor.

Don't delude yourself, having a car or living in a good house in Nigeria now does not mean you're rich. How can you be rich yet you struggle to fuel your car, struggle to fill your gas, struggle to pay rent, struggle to pay fees, and even struggle to afford things that should be basic on normal circumstances. You're poor my friend and that's the sad reality undecided undecided

Some Nigerians can't afford ordinary sardines, toothpaste or other toiletries anymore, it's that bad cheesy cheesy

Absolute truth, Reason why MOST of the peeps who are receiving N800,000 upward per month as salary are now running away to Canada. They understands that even A Million Naira Is nothing to write home about again......

The value of the naira fell further by 1.68 per cent against the dollar at the official market on Thursday.

This is is just the beginning. Your dirty, stinky and worthless Naira would eventually become 1000 Naira to a $1 in a very short-while. You are in a deep sh*t without even realizing it. keep up with your ONE LIEGERIA till it KILLS you!

The Naira is weak because we produce nothing and have a taste for foreign made goods, 90% of the people complaining on social media and declaring dooms day produce nothing yet they complain of devaluation or think the CBN is the problem. To save our currency we have to make things the world needs and earn foreign exchange, the complain is sickening, the average home in China is a mini factory, they are either making jewelry or small electronics, the people doing this are not half as educated as Nigerians.
Oga leave story. We were not producing anything when naira was 145 to $1. People will always find excuse to justify failure!
Before it was that crude prices crashed and that justified the fall of naira. Now oild price has hit $80 and rising. Instead of naira to appreciate just as it happened with other oil producing countries that their currency took a hit eg Russia, ours is still loosing value! Now oil price has gone up, more excuses are being found.
We export gas. The price has shot up the roof, still naira is depreciating and we still will find excuses.
Who told you we produce nothing? Pls visit any major supermarket eg justrite superstore and look at the products there, from soap to plastics, ketchup, butter, to insecticides etc. We produce! Go all over Africa you see made in Nigeria products. In the US nko? I have a friend that exports tens of containers every month, from indomie to garri, dried fish, Stout, gulder, trophy etc to his depot in Maryland USA, from there sells wholesale for distribution.
Dont let anybody give you that crap story that we produce nothing. Do you know how many containers of timber leaves this country everyday?
See lots of countries don't have crude, gas etc and they are doing well.
The problem is the head, you do not expect someone like Sai bab to run a country of 200m people and expect anything good.
Give this current regime the economy of Qatar, USA, UK, Germany and in 2 years they will devastate the place and blame it on the "middleman", or that they export too much, or the economy was too rich and so had to become poor. undecided

I see it differently. When abokifx was shut down, parallel market rate was N570-580 to the dollar. Since then, the slide has halted and gradually being reversed as parallel market rate is about N565 to the dollar today. The exchange rate at the NAFEX window is what is weakening and rightly so. It is as VP Osinbajo suggested - the official and parallel rates should collapse and meet in the middle somewhere, determined by market forces and the supply of forex to the economy will greatly improve.

Thanks for bringing this up Sir.I understand very little economics and has low exposure as a rural dweller but I often don't understand why countries like Zambia, Malawi which exports next to nothing and are even landlocked would be better off in Forex than us, with all the gas,crude and foreign remittances.It can only be a consequence of economic mismanagement

Anything other than complete debt forgiveness and massive industrialization with diminished importation, just forget it!!!
