APC has nothing to offer Nigerians. All their struggles to grab power from PDP then was simply to devour our common wealth and feast on it. They don't care about the masses or their reactions. When PDP was in power, how much was a dollar, how much was a kg of gas etc ? I pray that God will continue to provide for all the people who did not vote for this calamity of a government.

What people dont understand is that Buhari finished Nigeria. He was so tribalistic that he rated his tribe's interest against the interest of Nigeria. Tinubu inherited a finished Nigeria. Most of the security issues we have got worse under Buhari simply due to tribalism. Omo, to fix Nigeria now go need miracle. Tinubu seems to continue with the tribalism stunt grin

I hope Yorubas are taking note of how their fellow Yorubas who are in total control of Nigeria now since 2023 have destroyed Nigeria's economy and security beyond measures?


Before you quote me, please read below:


Southwest ought to be the safest region in Nigeria with zero case of crime or insecurity, ask me why?


President - Yoruba man

Chief of staff - Yoruba man

Chief Justice of Nigeria - Yoruba man

Chief of army staff - Yoruba man

Inspector General of Police - Yoruba man

EFCC Chairman - Yoruba man

Customs comptroller - Yoruba man

Comptroller General of Immigrations - Yoruba man

CBN Governor - Yoruba man

Minister of Interior - Yoruba man

Minister of Finance - Yoruba man

Minister of Justice & Attorney General of Nigeria - Yoruba man

FIRS Chairman - Yoruba man


Yorubas have no single reason whatsoever to complain again in Nigeria because they are completely in charge of Nigeria now.

Most funniest thing is handling over our economy to a people known for "Faji". People that will celebrate the remembrance of their great grandfather that died 50 years ago because a little change entered their hands, the next day after the remembrance they will be looking for money to pay their children school fees. People that will borrow money to celebrate freedom from learning a trade/work; after two years of "shutting down street for the celebration, he has no shop or a single tool to startup his trade.

They are bad economist, is in their blood

DIVERSIFY THE ECONOMY

DIVERSIFY THE ECONOMY

CRUDE OIL IS A BLESSING A CURSE

THE CURSE IS MUCH MORE BRUTAL THAN THE BLESSING

I have said it here many many times on nairaland what Nigeria must do https://www.nairaland.com/7989133/naira-rebounds-banks-offload-excess/4#128260034



Convert all NYSC CAMPS into cash crops processing mega centres

Instead of corpers shouting corper wee wee up and down employ them to run these mega farms and produce Made in Nigeria cash crops

DO you know much land Nigeria has in the south

Till today I have never seen a crop in my life THAT CANNOT GROW IN NIGERIA.

Made in Nigeria bananas
Made in Nigeria mangoes
Made in Nigeria pineapples

Made in Nigeria cocoa

Even if it’s just one made in Nigeria something that is flooded European markets with

Then that’s all you need TO MAKE THE DOLLAR almost as strong as the naira .

The first paragraph just told you there was a time in Nigeria in 1980 where naira was stronger than dollar and that time Nigeria exported more than it imported and thus the favourable balance of trade even made it have 9 billion dollars extra

THIS IS NOT SOME ECONOMIC THEORY OR SOME TRIAL AND ERROR

DIVERSIFY THIS ECONOMY FOR GODS SAKE

LEAVE CRUDE OIL ALONE , humans eat and humans eat most crops , even cocoa that cannot be eaten directly
It is needed for making chocolates coffee

THE NIGERIAN EXPORT SHOULD BE MERGED INTO NYSC , and nysc camps should be converted to these mega farms and tons and tons of crops should be processed to be shipped out

FG should go to European countries and lobby each country to buy even if it’s made in Nigeria bananas, that are being processed and prepared in advance from the NYSC camps .

Any embassy or country that doesn’t want these MADE IN NIGERIA products should be closed down

Any country that doesn’t mind buying Nigerian oil but when it comes to made in Nigeria products it’s reluctant is an enemy of Nigeria .

This is the only way NIGERIA CAN escape poverty

PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN READ THIS

PLS I BEG YOU IN THE NAME OF GOD I AM FROM THE FUTURE . NIGERIA BECAME WORSE THAN WHAT IT CURRENTLY IS RIGHT NOW

NIGERIA pls diversify this company all oil licenses of any oil company should be revoked and tax free concessions given to AGRICULTURAL companies

Nigeria please leave crude oil alone

Sunshine is free
Rainfall is free
Photosynthesis is free

These are the 3 things you need to grow any cash crop in the whole world and feed the whole world if you are serious with it

YOU CAN SELL ANYTHING TO EARN FOREX IN THE INTERNATIONAL MARKET , it’s not only refined oil you sell there

Please convert all Nysc camps into these mega farms and start churning out tons of materials to earn good money outside

NIGERIA PLS LEAVE CRUDE OIL ALONE

THE UK import bananas all the way from Panama and South Africa

Please which country is closer to the uk.

How big is Panama and how much land does South Africa that tescos stores in the uk import all the way down South Africa for bananas

Why can’t there be made in Nigeria bananas

Why this oil curse for Gods sake

How much green land do we have in the south of Nigeria that bananas fresh good ones can’t be planted to be exported in tons

Convert all nysc camps to farms now , double allawee to corpers that want to work leave the ones who don’t want to go and be looking for thier oil corporate jobs

After converting the nysc camps into mega farms Merge nysc and the Nigerian export council and EXPORT all your wahala and earn cool forex

Find a country and export good fresh foods to this country

No one can tell me this is impossible
If elections materials can get to every nook and cranny of this country

You can’t tell me state sponsored Mega farms are impossible

ALL THE TRILLIONS SAVED FROM FUEL SUBSIDY. Invest it in agriculture and become a sole supplier of foreign countries different types of food

Tomatoes
Peepers
Cashews
Bananas
Carrots

Do you know how much crops you can grow for free and make FREE DOLLARS FOR free

Who told these guys oil is the only thing you can sell

Once again scroll back up and check the first paragraph soemthing used to happen to Nigeria before 1980

After 1980 it got carried away and chased something which is crude oil

And 50 years later Nigeria life has never remained the same

Please diversify this economy now

Besides carrots takes 3 months to grow
Cucumbers etc

There are some crops that if Nigerian becomes a sole exporter to selected foreign countries growing them would be light work

Infact self nnpc should be forced to buy shares in this new mega farms

Leave oil alone

Lemme summarize for you all

In summary, the Nigerian economy nosedived the moment APC took over power via clueless buhari.

Tinubu took over from where buhari stopped and made everything even worse!
If you believe your own lie mixed up with a faint imagination, then why did you Nigerians vote Pdp out of power?

Buhari's first misstep was mismanagement of Niger Delta crisis he continued to use force instead of calling the stakeholders for a roundtable discussion and led to the first economic recession until Osinbanjo stepped in when Buhari was away on 3-month foreign medical trip and engaged Niger Delta militians in peaceful negotiation.Another economic recession followed due to the mismanagement of Covid-19 pandemic coupled with Buhari's inapt attitude of putting the the square pegs in round holes not only that people of questionable characters who looted and re-looted the recovered loot without a blink.In addition,the shutdown of Nigerian boarders other unpleasant economic and monetary policies created bumpy rides.

Even the scripture says it is a curse to yen for the leaders of the past.

It was eldorado under Ebele you clam, yet you where the same People in the majority that voted him out of power, or who are you blaming for your action?

If Nigeria was your business would you have hired someone who licked a microphone when asked to test it to be the CEO?

Would you have hired someone who bluffed “A Town Hall, Different From Balablu Blublu, Bulaba” to head the organization?

The moment we start treating Nigeria as our enterprise we will then understand what leadership entails.

The irony is that your supposed curse is just an indictment of yourself, unless you are not Nigerian?

A failed specimen will always look 👀 for others to blame, maybe The APC is a Ghanaian Political party that caused hardship on you Nigerians?

Dude, these things are analysed in 10-years cycles.

In any case, don't pretend that almost 9 years of APC has not been enough to change whatever mess they claim they inherited from Jonathan's 6 years in office. You come to power to better what you campaigned to replace, not to lament.

Be honest with yourself and look at inflation and Forex yearly from 2009 to May 2015 and from June 2015 to 2024.

The truth shall set everyone free.

No hiding place for anyone from inflation, insecurity/kidnappers/bandits.
