GOOD TARGET but will be frustrated. This is the type of target this nation should be recording in actual but corruption, laziness, quick fixes and short cuts, insecurity are our albatross

Yorubas and empty chest beating.

Does this clown understand what 18% GDP growth means?

Growth rate of the biggest economy in America, USA, is less than 6%.

GDP growth of China, Asian biggest economy, is less than 9%.

GDP growth rate of South Africa is less than 5%

GDP growth rate of Germany, European biggest economy is less than 3%.

Then, one Iragbiji clown that doesn't even know how to do FX unification is talking about growing our economy to 18% from 3.6%.

😂😂😂

For those that will wail under this comment, 18% GDP growth means over NEW 55 trillion naira worth of economic activities added into the economy going by the exchange rate bench mark and nearly 100 trillion naira if you go by the REAL exchange rate.

The clown wants to achieve that with his 24 trillion naira expansionary fiscal policy.

😂😂😂

The funny thing is less than that amount will go into the economy since a huge part of it will go into servicing debts, procuring military equipment, and statutory transfers.

The best Tinubu and his Yoruba brothers should target is 5%.

Tinubu never said 18%. He actually said the economy is expected to grow by a minimum of 3.76%. This is exactly the way they said that Buhari promised N1 to 1$. It is a deliberate Misinformation.

Check the transcript of the full speech here

What misinformation? Major economic proposal of BAT is to move Naija economy to $1tn in 8 yrs as enunciated by CBN governor and economic advisers. So for you to do that, you would have to grow the economy at annual rate of 15-18%. So they’re saying the same thing.
CBN is already telling banks to recapitalize in anticipation of $1tn economy.
If BAT said that economy would grow at 3.7%, how does he allow his CBN governor to be misleading the public with this unrealistic $1tn GDP projection ?

Sense is far from all of you shouting 1 naira is 1 dollar or 1 pounds lol

Is it by one dollar to one naira , when one pounds was equivalent to 1 naira . How many Nigerians can afford to have 1,000 naira in their account ? How much was car sold for , less that 1,000 naira and 80 % citizens could not afford to still buy it .

You just been shouting dollar this dollar that like because una no know what’s up .

He made a promise, it is his duty to keep it, Nigerians didn't put a gun to his head when he made the promise.

Because What you are trying to say is that Tinubu's words mean nothing and we shouldn't take him serious....

Awesome!! It's doable Mr President.

With petrol subsidy gone, importation of petrol gone and era of using our hard-earned forex to defend overvalued USD on the streets gone, amongst many other rent-seeking monetary and fiscal policies gradually being vanquished by your team of brilliant, hardworking, competent and patriotic members.

The creative ingenuity of a patriotic Nigerian will being unleashed.

The naysayers, unpatriotic elements, criminal defamers and cyberbullies will neither see it nor benefit from the benefits of all these progress.

God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

Keep deceiving yourself. You keep exposing how high your level of ignorance and stupidity is in most of your comments.

You are jubilating over a target of 18% growth in GDP and not GDP per capita. Your case is irredeemable.

That's how you lots jubilate over Lagos state high IGR when there's no personal benefit to Lagosians. Just continue to deceive yourself.

He doesn't need love. Love has nothing to do with it.

Voters don't elect politicians to show them love. We elect them to do a job. This man was 'elected' under very controversial circumstances, even by Nigeria's abysmally low standards for elections into federal and sub-national government. Instead of putting all his heart, soul and might into fixing this country's problems the best way he can...and thus earn some legitimacy (however little), he is proving to be no different from his predecessors. Bola Tinubu claims he is there to do a job. He has been terrible at it so far. undecided

He isn't righting any wrongs. His 2023 supplementary budget (and the luxury boat it was padded with) to the legislature should have made that abundantly clear to you...with this man it is business as usual (Nigerian politician style), full speed ahead.

He is not the man for the job.

Very good. I would like to see who will rebut this - and how.

It is time for posters who actually understand how economies work to reclaim this space - so that we can all learn something useful - even if these posters have widely divergent viewpoints. The professional tribalists have been given free reign for far too long. I am ready to bet the farm (which isn't worth anything, by the way) that the likes of the freestuff guy, burob, jrusky and all the other trolls will not be able to say anything meaningful about this topic. Not in 100 million years. grin

Crunch those numbers and you should be able to tell us if the person you quoted has said something we should pay attention to. Go on...wink

And...the 'third party' is your central bank governor. This isn't (or shouldn't be) a position for party hacks. Monetary policy is serious business.

If Cardoso is inconsequential and not worth listening to - then this should be made clear to Nigerians.

This is a joke.

The increase in petrol price will constrain demand and will take about 2 years for the country to digest. Secondly, the petrol subsidy is back. The president should have targeted the full deregulation of the petrol price as done with diesel and kerosene.

The price of electricity too should have been deregulated. This would attract investors into this sector, especially now that the Disco licenses have expired. Present license holders who have underperformed would have their licences revoked and handed over to new players.

In addition, the CBN refuses to fight double digit inflation with gusto. Presently, interest rates are below inflation and this is a red flag. Experienced investors will be discouraged from plowing money into the economy.

The government needs to lower company tax rates to 15% or less. Low tax rates have proven a winner in bringing in foreign investors all over the world and Nigeria would be no different.

Charles Soludo stated that if foreign investment is equal to 5% of GDP for 5 years straight, an economy overheat

Nigeria needs more than ever that 5% (which is a measly $22bn) to achieve at least an 8% annual growth.

recessionary pressure and effects from subsidy removal are already shrinking the economy.
Movement of goods and services has shrunk.
Movement of people has shrunk.
Transportation is one of the core movers of the economy has shrunk.
High inflation resulting from subsidy removal and FX crisis has eroded the purchasing of middle/working class.
-NNPC/JV bpd output is shrinking..
So how can he and his team grow the economy?
