Why won't they list bonds for sale? The government is eagerly scrambling for all available avenues to squeeze the Nigerian public of more monies. You'll put your small millions into investing in Nigerian bonds that will mature for harvest by 2025 at a lowly 9 percent interest rate, and by the time it matures in two years, inflation has completely eroded the value of whatever gains you think you should have made. While the government on the other hand, would have further put your millions into funding their egregious and expensive lifestyles, because there is the very strong possibility the monies won't be put into proper investment initiatives. Na mumu dey buy Nigerian bonds at this very volatile period wey Nigerian currency dey get mood swings pass woman wey dey menstruate! 3 Likes |

I wonder why this insignificant office is still in existence or still retaining the same useless staff! How can a Debt Management office allow the nation to get sunk into an irrecoverable debt with nothing to show for it??! So, what debt have you managed or helped reduce that should necessitate your existence??! 1 Like |

Slawomir: Nigeria has never defaulted on a sovereign bond and it will never happen. Bond payments are a first-line charge on the federation account. |

The Nigerian economy doesn't follow any economic metric. High inflation with very little money in circulation and a devalued naira. Yet FG wants to mop up naira by issuing savings bonds. Its a funny case Though intrest rate is low, I'm actually considering investing as the returns is at least 5 times the rate I'd get if I invested in UK bonds. And that's even adjusting for further devaluation of the naira. Essentially, nothing to lose. 2 Likes |

ferhyntorlah: I still find it hard to make sense of the reason(s) any middle class Nigerian will put his/her sweat into buying government bonds. It's like tying down a lump sum of money for a lengthy period of time to be getting 9percent interest every 3 months, when the government is using that same money to put into personal investments that are fetching them even more profits. Assume you buy those bonds with 2million naira at a 9percent interest rate to be harvested every 3 months. That implies that the government is sitting on your 2million naira and giving you about 180,000 naira every 3 months as your profits, when you can comfortably invest that lump sum on your own in one or two decent businesses and make that 180K in about a month or less. I pretty much think it's just people who don't have the business acumen, that end up buying bonds cause they don't know how to save the money. And people who have too much of it that they can afford to have useless monies tied in bonds for safe-keep. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Buddha3: Thanks for your input. You need to realise that not everyone is business savvy or has a flair for business. Some prefer to keep their monies in low risk schemes like bond. I see nothing wrong with it except the low interest rate. That's all 3 Likes |

So if I buy N100,000 worth It will be 100,000 *9%*2 years /100 = 18,000N + 100,000 = N118,000 With 200,000 = just 36,000 With 300,000 = 54,000 500,000 = N90,000 It’s too low in my opinion. 4 Likes 1 Share |

What are you guys calculating on this thread @9% if you invest 1M you getting 90k per annum ,if you want to know what you would get per month pro rate it it’s about 0.75 less than 1% per month, so you getting 7500 *12=90k |

Y’all complaining about interest rate and inflation. Government bonds are usually the safest and the lowest yield bonds. So 10% is low but that’s how it works when it’s government bond |

Igwe9: Except if one has none used huge amount of between 20million, 100million, 1 billion Naira then the 10% becomes really substantial. |
