You warned but supported a candidate who said he was going to do so?

sweetgala:



Stop this nonsense of "absolutely float the Naira" or absolutely remove subsidy.

These are difficult decisions and I'm glad Tinubu had the strength of will to do what was a necessary decision.

All the three major candidates agreed that a parallel FX market and the act of defending the Naira with borrowings was not proper and it was only kicking the can down the road.

What the CBN and FG have done is to let the market determine the value of the Naira, what they need to do as regulators is to with the EFCC and other law enforcement agencies go after rampant speculators.

It's only in Nigeria that speculators go unchecked, try that in USA and you might be looking at a long jail term. Financial crimes of that nature are frowned at and rightly so.

It's time that CBN continue to implement conventional monetary policies that guarantee the confidence of our currency while the FG need to cut cost all these jamboree flights to Qatar has to stop, the reckless spending of the legislative has to be curtailed.
The only big items in the budget across board should be infrastructure development, healthcare and education. Should be wage cuts across board for all political appointees.

That is the least Nigerians should seek

Oga , read the bolded again. He never said he would float the naira to solve the multiple exchange problem

Abagworo:


None of them suggested absolute floating of Naira.

What did you expect from a president that only told Nigerians ..it's my turn?

Sometimes I feel tinubu is playing dumb so as not to look better than buhari.

LeeSantos:
Since 1960. Nigerians have never for once enjoy a good standard of living. It has always being Like this,
No generation has had any good thing to say about the country.

I have never supported the APC administration right from when they captured power but I think we should start our blame from those generation where the Naira was 0.75 to 1$

It even worst for This generation children. They don’t even enjoy what most kids born in 90s and early 2000 enjoyed. Kids can’t even afford to buy biscuits, sweets, good and enough foods, fruits, toys, cloths, indomie etc.

Zetty177x:

The reason why we are facing this difficulty is really not because the fuel subsidy was removed, it is mainly because of the exchange rate.

Ready2speak:
Plz is exchange rate tied to what?

Simple economics dictates that if there is not a strong production and export base for your economy, is it not unwise to float your currency? When there is weak agricultural policy that is making it difficult to produce enough for home consumption, will it be economically wise to ban importation of food until enough capacity is built?

I think wisdom is profitable to direct.

JagabanB:

This is just what Obidents are saying now that Obi would have put measures in place before removing subsidy when Obi said emphatically that he will remove subsidy "immediately without wasting time, it has to go".
They both said they will remove subsidy and float the naira.
Obi said, his own which I remember very well that "market forces will determine the value of the naira".
Why twisting narratives now?
Why??

Daystar7:


Did the candidate say he was going to carelessly announce subsidy removal on his inauguration day without drawing up a plan with a committee? Did he say he will float the Naira. You candidate didn't even engage in a public discuss apart from Emilokan. Na statistics we go chop? Do you collect salary in $? And incoherent jargons like balablu today y'all take solace in that Peter Obi and Atiku said they were going to remove subsidy. That's one thing with dullards, take other people ideas and bastardize it as they're clueless as to what to do with it. Keep deceiving urself with others said same without caring to know how they would have applied it. We know transport is needed for travel to UK then dullards like you will just pick up bicycle when they could have been more efficient by using the air or sea. That's how dull y'all agbadorians are

GeneralDae:

This is Obi.

waveman2:

Oga every candidate said they were going to remove subsidy but had a plan.Till today do we have federal govt sponsored buses on the road to ease transport?Do we have functional trains to move goods from one part of the country to another.We not only implemented one but two wicked policies and the floating of the naira actually buried the country.

Tochi360:


And He came to your house to tell You He will remove subsidy immediately without putting up necessary policies in place to tackle the effects??

You guys have been known to be hypocrites since the emergence of this Apc calamity in 2015,deep down your heart you know that Apc is the greatest disaster to befall this Country and the buhari govt made Nigerians extremely poor,to the extent that bearing this great tinubulation will be very tedious for the common man hustling legitimately to survive,but ofcus You soul is plainly rooted to my party my candidate must win politics, whatever happens next doesn't matter.

I don't expect anything meaningful from a man who doesn't believe in Nigeria,I don't expect anything meaningful from a dunce who doesn't have any blue print and plan for governance,JUST GRAB IT and RUN WITH IT is what We have going on

May the strongest stand tall on Grace.

Abagworo:


All candidates unanimously suggested subsidy removal but none including Tinubu said they would float the Naira. Floating means allowing your currency value to be determined by speculators not devaluation

Emyogalanya:
And you forget that he who alleges must prove it? my friend bring your proof

Blaze14k:


If you know obi will do all these things why did you vote for him?

JagabanB:

If Obi said otherwise, you would have rush to post pictures and videos, you know he said it, to live in denial is good sometimes.
I am also alleging that Obi and Atiku contested in the last election, but I don't have proof that they contested in the last election.
