When GDP doesn't translate to living standards, it makes no meaning. Biggest economy in Africa is just the sum of total production and the level of poverty we have witnessed is alarming implying the rich are getting richer and the poor much more poorer than we can imagine.

I truly do not see this as a worthy news in our case.

True talk.

What is biggest economy without 24/7 stable electricity that Fashola and APC promised to deliver in six months if the people kick out PDP? The people did their own part but Buhari, Tinubu, Fashola and APC failed to do their own part.

To have stable electricity, vote out PDP – Fashola

July 11, 2014

He said,” Yes I agree with you that it is possible to generate electricity and to make sure that everybody in this country has electricity, we have to do the right thing. But you know what, the only way that you and I will have electricity in this country will be to vote out the PDP.

Ghana is barely 30 million. Meanwhile Egypt with 110 million is far ahead GDP per capita

That is my argument.

If only Buhari had left many of the policies he inherited intact, Nigeria's GDP would probably be at least 50% bigger.

If the GDP was $500bn in 2013 and he achieved a 5% average yearly growth rate, the economy would be $750bn by now.

If it averaged 6% it did from 1999-2013, the economy would be about $800bn

If high GDP doesn't translate to high living standards, seh na low GDP will improve standard of living?

a country's standard or living and middle class earners car calculated by GPD per capita and PPP (purchasing power parity)

And Nigeria is no 13 iin Africa in this very important development index.

When I see Singapore whose population is not up to 7 million having a GDP of over $300 billion, it makes me jittery. That's nearly the same GDP as Nigéria, a country of over 200 million people. We need to understudy these Asians and apply what they are getting right.

If some yeye businessmen cum politicians are not importing petroleum products and home-made goods like toothpick, matches and other scrap materials into and allow home based countries to grow, the GDP will rise tremendously.

Nigeria remains the largest African economy with a nominal GDP of $477.4 billion.

And what's the point? You have the largest economy in Africa and yet you're the poverty capital of the world. So, what benefit is it to your citizens that their country has the largest economy in Africa but yet they are living in abject poverty even worse than those whose countries do NOT even rank? Just like you tout your country as the MOST populous country in Africa and yet your population is a curse NOT a blessing. In fact, you are big for NOTHING in all aspects!
