What do you expect when we have very strong appetite for foreign goods and services.

Ban Nigeria from any form of buying and travelling out if the currency will not appreciate

You have said it. Once you close your economy and eat what you produce there is no way your currency will not be strong and stable.

What are you producing?

We even buy import goats and cows from Niger republic including tomatoes so what you are producing is it enough to go round when criminals are busy killing people in every nooks and crannies and the government does not see it as it’s primary responsibility to protect Nigerians

You can only produce massively if the country is peaceful, period

To be sincere when Naira was 1 to 1 in 1976 during Murtala / Obasanjo.’s first coming we were consuming made in Nigeria goods. Even the head of state and this was when obj took over, 504 was the presidential car.

We need to consume what we produce. Innoson cars is there but our Governments both states & federal would go & buy foreign vehicles.

Yes I get what you're saying. That's why I made that comment.

When black people have power they think of themselves first and oppress others instead of how to better the economy. Nigeria has more resources than dubai that was built out of a desert yet we cant even stand side by side with them. And yet we still have clueless fools like this one defending their oppressors

You see I was right when I told you to speak for yourself because you alone deserve to be called a black money

You're comparing Nigeria a country with a population of more than 150m and a landmass of more than 900k with Dubai a city in the UAE.

The fool above me obviously didnt read what I wrote. And am sure he dosent know that Nigeria has more resources than UAE. Again, he justifies my statement.

Even with our population, Nigerians will still live well if our leaders were not greedy. I talk am say God make me share this country with fools like this guy above me

We have a President that claimed he graduated with a First Class in Accounting..

Some that claimed he can assemble a smart team that can fix Nigeria problems in months..

Being in the opposition is different from leadership

What do you expect when you have criminals, drug lord, certificate forgers, herdsmen with NEPA bill as certificate to run the country...!!!

Worst now is political patronage...!! The very least of the people in the society who can't amount to anything join politics simply because the matra there is, grab it, snatch it and run away with it...!!!

Don't expect any good thing to come from criminals, if you like go to church and mosque and pray a thousand times a day..nothing would change...!!

The other day another bagga was saying if Christians take over certain states moslem would suffer, with these kind of mind set of people who lead groups and couple with criminals, what do you expect...??

What I noticed when I went to Namibia for one month, they do not allow domiciary accounts. I don’t know where we got that idea from. Y allow dollar accounts in your country, even in d UK they would not allow you to have a dollar account.

Once we scrap dollar accounts I would see the value of Naira surge. But leave it as it is means the same banks that keeping d dollars for you would end up being d ones selling d banked dollars in d black market.

Precisely and succinctly put!

Others on here are penning thesis….quoting all sorts of economic theories and shit, when what’s wrong with Nigeria and her currency can be summed up in just a few words like you’ve done!

The Taliban don't import stuffs, they don't send their kids to school abroad, they are not obsessed with western products e.t.c basically, they have low desire or need for the US dollars.

Laws of demand and supply. Secondary school economics.

Hypocrisy will kill most of us not only in Nigeria or Africa but throughout the world.

Who are the people advocating Liberal Market so that they can import pins, pencils, used clothes, used electronics including discarded computers in exchange for hard earned Niger Delta Oil Money?

Even Jonathan's Our Money We Can Spend It Anyway We Want, left the Environmental Degradation that made it worse than he met it, failed his people.

So it takes Afghanistan to realize we must learn to consume what we produce. Keep on celebrating pretty printed papers as promissory notes from the biggest debtor in the world that never has intention of paying back, u hia

because the demand for dollar in the country is low. In Nigeria there is so many parties in our foreign exchanges industry.

Sorry but your suggestion will lead to another severe increase in the discrepancies.

What we need is strategic and massive industrialization. Start build the major industries in small output scales, then run it for 10 - 20 years then do what you said above.

If done this way we will be forced to buy Nigerian and be forced to upscale our industries.

If we go by your approach straight away, you will find out that even if you want to buy nigerian you have no Nigerian substitute so you will be forced to look for scarce dollars and end up paying high price in terms of conversion rates which is what exactly Buhari did to the naira by banning importation of almost all things.
