If you've been following economic trends you'd know that getting to 1k with floating of the naira was just a.matternof time. It'd retrace should the govt get investors to pump in foreign currencies.

For some time now, I have been analysing which is better in terms of travelling to work and sending money back home to invest and I can come to that conclusion that UK is still the best.

UK money is far higher than both USA, Canada and even Australia interms of the exchange rate.

I think travelling to UK should be on my list this year.

and am telling you, that what you will gain it's numerical value, unless you are buying locally made goods such as garri, palm oli, fufu, but as long as Nigeria depends on imported goods bought with the same dollars, you gain a little.

I do not know why the federal government of Nigeria is so afraid of investing in Agriculture.

They prefer crude oil money and that is why the national currency is not appreciating in value against other world known currency like the British Pound, USA dollars, and European union Euro.

Even the northern states governors prefer crude oil money instead of investing in the huge lands stretching from Niger state, Zamfara, Kebbi, Sokoto, Kano, Kaduna, Jigawa, Katsina, Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba, Plateau state, Nasarawa state etc

The future of Nigeria is to curb insecurity now ravaging the entire country and go back to the Agriculture days.

If Nigeria can not manufacture Aeroplane, Ships, machineries etc like the advanced countries they should be able to grow food crops both for domestic consumption and export.

All the successive government Nigeria have had in the recent years have had a total distaste for Agriculture.

Buhari held the petroleum ministry for good 8 years without achieving anything.

If he had ended insecurity and focussed the Nigeria in Agriculture that will be a game change.

AGRICULTURE IS A GAME CHANGER FOR NIGERIA.

THERE IS SO MUCH MONEY IN AGRICULTURE IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CAN THINK INSIDE AND OUT OF THE BOX.

The federal government of Nigeria should create the enabling environment for Agriculture to succeed in Nigeria.

Countries like Botswana, Zimbabwe, Uganda, Kenya, South Africa, Zambia, Morocco, Egypt are doing so well in Agriculture.

Ukraine that is being bombarded night and day are even exporting wheat to many African countries.

NIGERIA POLITICAL LEADERS FROM FEDERAL TO STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT INCLUDING THE PRIVATE SECTORS MUST PUT THE RIGHT POLICY IN PLACE TO DEVELOP AGRICULTURE.

There is so much focus in Crude oil which comes with large scale looting and corruption by the political class.

Nigeria can earn huge foreign exchange from export of food crops and timbers, charcoal etc

There will always be a black market rate. The difference is that in a free market, the black markert rate has a close relationship with the bank rate.

What is the purpose of floating the naira?

Wasn't the elimination of black market one of the reasons given?

There is no way to eliminate the black market. As long as dollars flow into the hands of private actors, there will always be a possibility of selling from kne individual to another. That's the black market.

What they wanted to eliminate was arbitrage...where people took from govt at 450 and sold on the black market at 750.
