Tinubu caused the problem now he can't fix it. Hes woeful economically and a disgrace to Yorubaland.


Removing subsidy
Giving governors palliative billions
No account on its use
Showing concern with Niger when Nigeria is on fire....


He's not a wise man
He's a disgrace and he should await karma when d uprising begins.

linearity:


hmmmm, that how the end effect would be with foreign currencies but, that is the sweet part on the surface, but it is not actually how currency Re domination is done….

This how it is done using your above example:

The CBN will create another currency, let’s call it xNaira, they can also create this currency with other Africa countries or the whole of Africa and call it whatever name they like…

Now CBN will say, 1 xNaira = 10 Naira.

Automatically, if you are holding 1000 Naira notes, your bank will collect them and give you 100 xNaira notes.

Exchange rate is not affected technically because 100 xNaira notes will now exchange for $1.

The problem now become, if you are working and assuming you are making 10,000Naira/monthly, the next time you go to collect your pay, you will be paid 1,000 xNaira instead of 100,000 Naira.

This will lead to further devaluation, because some goods and services are not going to be reviewed down at the same percentage rate….eg market women that use to sell one modu of garri for 400 Naira, would be cheated if you give her only 40 xNaira, even after explaining the whole thing for her, she might be only willing to take e.g. 60 to 80 xNaira, etc xNaira from you, which represents almost 100% inflection.

I appreciate your informative response. It now makes sense

Absolute truth! Nothing more! Nothing less. However, this new development even if it is being considered is a red flag that President Tinubu was never prepared for any meaningful governance as he campaigned. He is just another unfortunate phenomenon after Buhari to ever graced our national life.

Unfortunately, his wayo wayo image makers did this country a great disfavour by shielding him from thorough public scrutiny in not appearing for media interactions or debates. Now, these are just the economic consequences not even talking of the other sides of our national that are still nose diving.

Sudden removal of the fraudulent fuels subsidy( that the APC have been operating illegally for the past 8 years despite lying to Nigerians that it is a scam/fraud) and free floating the naira without any plans to cushion the outcome of the these major policies just paints a scary picture about his future policies. After he promised to continued Buhari’s disastrous policies.

Buhari Jnr 😂😂😂😂😂
That man is naturally wicked.

I just pity president tinubu. The mess in the Nigerian economy started towards the end of Jonathan's regime. This was principally because of corruption and the weakness of the president to control those he appointed.

This led to the alarm bell rang by okonjo-iweala. They did not arrest the situation. Unfortunately buhari did nothing but compounded the situation.

Tinubu inherited a messed up economy. He's not talking because he's protecting buhari and his party. He's battling against odds.

The good thing is that he's sound and he has sound people around him. When a patient is in a critical condition the doctors will try several drugs and modes of treatment and watch the effect on the patient. Finally they will get the most responsive mode. In the process the patient will feel several pains.

The doctor will be called names by the patient and his relations. I'm feeling the pains too.

What will anybody honestly criticise a government that inherited the Nigerian mess, less than three months, ministers not yet sworn in and broad policies not yet in full implementation?

FYI I'm an Ibo, professional, religious leader detribalised and apolitical.

They started on falsehood, no sincerity of purpose.
When they commissioned Dangote refinery that was not in any where ready, just to deceive Nigerians that they have a plan for subsidy removal, it was all games.
Actions have consequences. If they sincere, subsidy removal could have been in phases. Something like 25% at a time until we have functional refinery.
Now this, when Nigeria is still struggling with all the recent failed policies. It is an act of desperation, and hasty decisions often end up wrong.
Why can’t they wait for the first batch of locally refined product before attempting economic changes.

Unless the blood sucking coruption, gross and blatant wastages couple with the overbloated wages of politicians is totally and completely eradicated, window dressing the naira will not save it. Even almajiries knows that, ramping up local production, minimal imports or most essential products import, eradicating oil thefts and 100% accounting for crude sold, will transform the country in less than 4 months.

Re-denomination won't work. As a matter of fact, it's unnecessary because:

1. 1 Korean Won = 0.57 Naira. But this does not mean Nigeria is better than Korea economically. Korea is one of the World's neatest countries with virtually no thievery. Mind you, 1 dollar = 1,300 Korean Won.

2. Nigeria is not competitive in the global scheme of things and still needs work in terms of raising GDP, human capital development, infrastructure, health (life expectancy), FDI, and other socio-economic indices.

3. Ghana aside, Zimbabwe created gold coins to counteract their freakish zeros a few years ago. Still, that didn't work.

4. Until a country works on its socio-economic hard-wiring, every other thing is voodoo economics that will backfire.

The corruption around subsidy is huge and has been on for years. Any soft handling will not work. The refineries will not work so long as there is subsidy on imported petroleum products. The hand 👏 must be cut for the body to survive. That's the only way to treat cancer.

Absolutely, there is no way we can survive with out redenomination of naira. Once naira close the maximum threshold of #1000 per a dollar we can remove a zero . Making 100 naira equal to $1. As of 2013 rate.

Did you really smoke weed when you said this? Do you know that the hyper inflation Ghana is suffering is the effect of that redenomination that has hit them. Sierra Leone did redenomination last year and their economy was worse off for it. The Solution is there. Sanitize the BDCs force everyone to use the I&E window rate and abolish the parallel market rate. Then face the economy squarely and move the country to production.

You are wrong on how to treat cancer.
Different options exist. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy and then surgery as the last option.
Even with the least invasive option such as radiotherapy, care must be taken not to affect healthy surroundings cells. This is often the recommended first line of treatment. The radiation has to be guided by well calculated dosimetry parameters.
The above illustration is what they missed. They went with the most drastic option,. Just for ego. Just to be seen as hitting the ground running!
It has failed. People are hungry , angry and desperate.

My guy redenomination will only work in a growing economy devoid of hyper inflation. Using it as a solution to hyper inflation is a disaster waiting to happen. In Sierra Leone they tried it and instead of things getting better it became worse. Ghana economy is almost fully dollarised because of the hyper inflation as a result of the redenomination. With inflationary pressures the true value of money will always show. Soludo proposed to then because our economy was a growing economy at that time and inflation was not like this, so then it would have made sense, not now.

Because with coins in the economy larger denomination will be phase out and coins will check inflation instead of rounding up figures ,it will be increased by 1 or 2 naira,thereby if there is any increments it will be in kobo.

This policy will work only if the amount of naira in circulation is reduced.So we don't have too much naira chasing few dollars like we still have now if not the naira will certainly become the worst performing currency in the world.we can do this but at the same time encourage production and export then reduce the naira in circulation.

The drug trade requires the acute smartness to move products in the streets and gather every small buck and penny there is, to be able to have a money arsenal. It is brutally punitive and detailed as every penny counts and nothing is left to chance.

That's the exact mentality Tinubu took to Lagos state for governance. All he did was treat the Lagos economy like the underworld and found avenues to squeeze every available penny from Lagosians, into his own pockets. Having gathered a money chest, he remitted what he liked to the Lagos coffers and handed down duties to commissioners and his "Yes sir" men, who did all the work while he retained his god-like status, and all the while deceiving Lagosians that he was a seasoned economist.

Now Nigeria is exposing his total lack of anything resembling economic intelligence. Stupid ass man with a brain-dead cranium!
