Despite the continuous criticism from delusionist Obedients, APC has undeniably made significant progress and contributions to Nigeria. Its amusing how these liars and losers refuse to accept the outcome of a fair election.

This was typed in anguish! Please Pardon any typos!..

Which improvements?.. increasing the cost of governance?? Cos thats the only visible thing I can see..

Go and read about how Argentina reduced their indices by leveraging on low hanging fruits like cost of governance..

Tinubu came into power clueless. He made very bad policies that made matters worse. Especially those first 2 policies (fuel subsidy and naira floatation) . Yes Nigeria had a problem and things were bad before he came in.. What Tinubu did can be likened to a landlord pulling down his house because Tenants refused to pay rent. The landlord is not staying in the house so he is not affected. He has money to rebuild so he is not affected.. has he solved the problem? Partially. A better way would be solving the fundamental issues on why tenants are refusing to pay rent.

I wholeheartedly believe these policiies were made out of sentiments, manipulation or emotion but clearly not from an economic POV.

Lets look at these policies:

ALLEGED FUEL SUBSIDY REMOVAL

IMF That is applauding Tinubu knows that other European, Western and Asian countries are heavily subsidizing their industries including Canada, UK, China, UZA, Germany..and the likes. Yet they are praising Tinubu for removing fuel subsidy.. and when you look at it did he really remove fuel subsidy? Right now we are paying far more than we used to pay even with end users paying too..so there probably is an excess somewhere that is used to fund this expensive government to get themselves Yatch and luxurious cars while asking citizens to be patient

FLOATING THE NAIRA
Tinubu and the CBN floated the naira and started using Naira to support it necause it was an unsustainable policy. IMF was applauding them because they were able to clear foreign debt and help European and Western Countries get their monies back from Nigeria..The Naira now is worse off!. So who do you think IMF is actually suppprting? The clueless government think they are talking to stupid people tellimg us that FDIs are coming in. When we can clearly see the big boys pulling out of Nigeria. Even as a Nigerian sef, if you see people running away from a particular direction, do you stop to ask them what happened or you pick up slippers and run oo.. No investment is coming in at all..Anyone that comes in (and they won't invest a lot) has gotten some very impressive incentives like buying all our crude oil in advance.

On sunday, Tinubu insulted Nigerians by saying citizens should be responsible. Is he responsible?.. is his government responsible?..

He inherited a bad economy but he bought a Yatch for himself as fast as he sat on the chair yet citizens should be responsible.

He inherited a bad economy but allocated billions of dollars for cars that will be changed every 2 years yet citizens should be repsonsible

He inherited a bad economy but have you seen the salaries and benefits of his government?.. people who meet 3 or 4 times a week. Yet citizens should be responsible

The cost of goods and services will continue to increase in Nigeria because:

1. the governement is still living a luxurious lifestyle as though the Nigerian economy is bubbling like the days of festac 77.

2. The business owners will increase cost of their products because cost of transportation, raw materials, importation, production ..in fact general cost of doing business is crazily high. So who bears the brunt - consumers obviously

3. You will ask, what about those road side guys like cobblers, babrbers hair dressers, public transporters, food sellers. Why are they increasing their prices. Why wont they? First off, getting raw materials for some is expensive. Secondly they have families too. They need to increase their cost so they can also afford basic neccessities for themselves, staff and salaries. Just the way the employees too are looking for increase minimum wage.

4. Cost of running a business is already high and labor wants to make it even higher by asking business to further increase their operating cost with this ridiculous minimum wage fight. JUST Wait and see. Even at 62k, there will be massive job loses for those at the lower rung of the ladder, gatemen, security guards, maids, auxilliary staff etc. Even the big companies will retrench. Companies and bosses owing their staff salaries will become a norm. You think unemployment rate is high now?.. wait and see what it will be after the increase is signed to law

Untill we have a responsible governement, we are heading for a great destruction

Until the stupendous and heavy cost of governance is reduced, we are heading for a great destruction

Until the insane gap between the rich, the middle class and the poor is bridged, we are heading for a great destruction

Until we realize that the IMF and world bank do not have our interest at heart, we are heading for a great destruction.

But I 100% believe Tinubu wilI not do any of these.. because like he said, "emilokan".. man just wanna be a president and live the luxurious lifestyle of a president, reward his boys with positions and that's all.. He and his government are inconsiderate and inhuman!... like they confidently spend lavishly in the face of Nigerians!.. confidently enrich their pockets confidently bleed the country's reserves for their own gains.

I think they actually believe Nigerians are stupid and gullible! We can take shit because the voice of the rich strongly overtake that of the poor. Even if the poor decide to talk, throw small money strategically and the talk will disappear, circle of oppression continues.

Joke all you want. After all that is the coping mechanism of Nigerians. I know becaue I'm one too..Everything is turned to comedy. Even serious matters of National consequence is turned to funny skit and comedy.. skit makers are looking for daily bread, Nigerians are looking for entertainment to avoid facing the real issues...make we continue, Venezuela and zimbabwe will soon be better than Nigeria.

Considering the level and pace of national development, cost of governance in Nigeria is too high.
That's why a lot of people who have nothing to offer see getting into political/ government offices as lucrative venture.

Once cost of governance is cut, eg minimum wage + basic benefits, mainly passionate individuals would partake in governance, across the various arms and tiers.

Meaningful, well thought-out policies not borne out of sentiments, emotions or self-interest would be formulated, implemented and regularly evaluated for the benefit of the people.

No doubt, there will be job losses following the implementation of a new minimum wage, not only in the private sector, but at the State and even Federal levels. While cost of products and services will invariably rise further.

I hope they are aware of the social effects of these changes.

Totally agree..

I do not they are aware of the effects not to talk of planning for it.

Same way they did not plan for the effect of floating of the naira or removing fuel subsidy..
