Tflex01: Once my tribe figure out our leadership issues, the tribalist criminal will be confined to your region. in 8 years, there might be no Nigeria as we know it. It will become former Nigeria. Is a matter of break in peace or in pieces. The haters of Nigeria in power, keep towing that path everyday. |

tctrills:The inaccuracy is that the report is based on assumption that the naira is being subsidized with USD and not even worth publishing. You are just pained because I called out the stupid Obidient on the journalism team for Bloomberg Africa. Cry all you want. Not my problem. The truth is bitter. The mad man should resign and support Peter Obi full time since he can't put his partisan views in check. 5 Likes 1 Share

rigarmortis:That was factual reporting. They had no choice as other media houses were also reporting same. However this one particular report is not factual. They are trying hard to link the plunge of 1.5billion dollars to defending the naira. But what about the markets converging like he truly pointed out? What about all the debts paid off by the federal government? And like he also rightly pointed out, I am actually surprised that one of their reporter is not even hiding the fact that he is an Obidient. 1 Like |

Tumbum Tumbum government They removed subsidy and later shamelessly returned it and paying even more. They floated the Naira and later went back to their vomit by defending the Naira like Emefiele was doing. I’m sure that’s why they shamefully released Emefiele after they saw themselves doing what they accused Emefiele of.

Faiththatworks: One of our major problems on Nigeria is that we tend to fall deeply in love with the politicians we supported during an election. We are willing to surrender our better reasoning just to make them look good, even perfect. I owe no politician love. I love myself so much. And so when I support a politician, it's because I truly genuinely believed that they'll bring the best dividends to me. If they begin to waver, I immediately start calling them out. Why? Because it's about me, my family and other innocent citizens of the state or country. Personally, I'm interested in responsible governance and being open to the people you lead, without propagandas. Once you've done this as a leader, you'll earn my respect. The problem is that in Nigeria we desperately want the politicians we support to look perfect. So no matter what they do, there's always some people singing their praises and defending them blindly. It almost makes us look like a country of uneducated people. **** Again, it's clear that the subsidy has gone. But some people don't even want to think about it, let alone believe it. Because they are so afraid it will make them love their favourite politicians less. It's easy to know that subsidy is fully back, and more expensive on top. 1) USD price directly affects price of petrol. If when 1 usd was about #700, BAT removed Petro subsidy, and Petro price came to #650 per litter. Is it not easy to know that when 1 USD had climbed to #1600 and above, that means that petrol would be around #1100 per litre or more? But then, somehow petrol was still being sold at #650 till now. 2) Diesel has been totally off subsidy for almost 20 years now. Normally, diesel is a bit cheaper than petrol at the international oil market. Now, you'll remember that diesel recently sold for upto #1200/ litre, and at some point even more. While the petrol which should be slightly more expensive than diesel, still sell for about half the price of diesel at #650/litre. Is that not a magic ? So, basically the government was too embarrassed to admit that after suffering the people in the name of subsidy removal, now they are paying even more Petro subsidy because crude prices and USD prices all went up. So, they keep quiet hoping that even if some opposition people found out and scream, then their willing docile supporters will defend them with their every breadth (after all, they don't really know the truth too) But TRUTH is one and has no other version. **** Now, while it's a 'great news' that the USD is falling and Naira is rising. And I hope it will soon start forcing the prices of commodities, especially food stuff down. But let me also say that it's clear that someone is using a non sustainable method to defend the naira. Something eerily similar to what emefiele did, which brought us to this level of trouble in the economy presently. For instance, the CBN started selling USD to BDCs at between #100 to #150 loss per dollar. For example, when the USD was trading at official market at 1500, CBN sold USD to BDCs at about #1350. And they keep selling to them at a massive discount. And they of course expect the BDCs to sell at just about N10 profit. So, basically, CBN is doing a kind of price fixing for the USD. So, what do you think? That's why we started seeing USD much cheaper at BDCs at that time, and even now. Something that is impossible anywhere in the world. Also, when the black market is forced down artificially, then people rush to BDCs, and then the the official market loses some price too. Brilliant? It looks that way! Many people don't ask themselves simple questions. I mean, I don't exactly blame CBN. They feel stuck, and must do something, otherwise dollars might have been over #2000 now. But, it's Important to always let the people know the truth. Because they need it. WHY? Because what CBN is doing today is almost like postponing judgement day, so that the present government "will look good". Eventually, the bad effects will start coming, and if people knew the truth, they'll be better prepared . Let me give you an example: Did you know that when Bihari and emefiele and Co were messing up our economy, a lot of people cried out. But they were termed bitter weepers. Some other Nigerians who know next to nothing about economy, but because they voted and loved the Bihari administration, were massively defending the jesters in government. Now, almost everyone is unanimous in concluding that Bihari admin was a terrible one economically. Even some of those who were defending Bihari then, but are now supporting BAT, are the ones using their mouth to confess that the last administration finished Nigeria. MY POINT: Opposition is so important. They are the likeliest to see the bad things/policies that a government is implementing, and have the clear eyes and guts to speak out. Because, they are not emotionally attached to the particular leaders involved. So tgeier head is clearer. Remember, politicians come and go, but the people (including those who are poorer) will be here forever, and suffer any bad consequences even after the administration is long gone. A wise person listens to the voice of the opposition and sieve out what they are saying right, and work with it. Peace! 6 Likes 1 Share |

We would find out that the enemies of Nigeria are just too much. There are enemies of the State that even call themselves “Nigerians”. What is the goat that wrote this trying to achieve, is he trying to tell Nigeria that dollar down to 850 and appreciating in worth is not its true value that after our foreign reserves is finished it would fall back to 2,000 It is good we elected a true democrat in the person of Asiwaju Tinubu as President cuz God knows if i were President i won’t waste time in picking up enemies of Nigeria one by one for proper interrogation When I am done with you, you by yourself would be begging to reveal your sponsor(s) and spend so-so number of jail time in other to wipe away your treason Things like this is what you won’t find an American or British writing and publishing.

Goodvibes007: Sometimes you need to be sensible and stop using bias to read articles. Ask yourself why is inflation still on the high despite the appreciation of the Naira? It is very clear that the appreciation is artificial and that the CBN is rigging the currency using the FX reserves, the issue here is for how long would this last? 1 Like |

helinues: Please answer it for us. There is no naysayers here. It is obvious that the government is on a keg of gunpowder. You are rigging the currency and using artificial appreciation of the naira by pumping your foreign reserves and at the sametime you are heavily saddled with debt servicing gulping more than 50% of your revenue and you have refused to diversify away from crude oil, and you thing it will not boomerang soon. Make we dey play. |
Re: Nigeria’s Dollar Reserves Plunge In Tandem With Naira Rebound by Believeintruth: 2:37am On Apr 17 |
Faiththatworks: Dude these guys are not saying it deliberately it is with facts and it is a cause for worry. Nigeria is not making any money from crude oil sales partly because of low demand due to increased competition in Africa and also due to debt servicing gulping a large chunk of the paltry revenue you make. Now you are using what ever is left in your reserve to rig the naira and give the illusion of the naira appreciating. You now ask why inflation has not gone down? This is the reason, we are really sitting on a keg of gun powder and it will boomerang on our faces soon irrespective of political leanings and affiliations. On the issue of Subsidy and honest right thinking Nigerian that sees the games being played here will see that Subsidy is actually back, if not NNPC will not be creating a price band for petrol sales. 2 Likes |
