CBN sold dollar to banks @ ₦1490 but turns around to complain when parallel market rate fell from ₦1500 to ₦1620 shortly after. If they wanted parallel rate to remain ₦1500, they should have provided dollar to banks at a much lower price. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

The Conservatives deserve any blame that comes their way. They lied to the UK public that leaving the EU would turn the UK into an economic powerhouse but the opposite has been the reality. Young voters saw through their BS and voted overwhelmingly to stay in the EU but older voters over 65 voted overwhelmingly to leave the EU. This proves that wisdom does not necessarily come with age. 3 Likes |

Who exactly is benefiting from an ever falling Naira? What kind of cruelty is this? In 2019, a friend of mine based in the US invested $200,000(N72,000,000 at that time) into Nigerian real estate. Now his investment is valued at about N200,000,000($135,000). Despite the fact that his naira investment tripled in value, it was still not worth it from a dollar perspective. He is now regretting his decision because he would have been better off just leaving his $200k in the bank when you consider it is now worth 32 percent less. This is an example of foreign investor they claim to be courting. 272 Likes 18 Shares |

The food reserves are as real as APC student loan. In normal countries, the process of releasing reserves is very plain and transparent to the entire public. If the government has released grains, they should let the public know where their subsidized grains can be purchased or is government grain going to be the same price with costly grains? |

datola:You paid hacks talk as if Nigeria was founded under APC. Are you aware that Presidents that oversaw booming economic periods like Obasanjo and Yar'Adua were also under pressure to devalue the Naira and remove subsidy? Yar'Adua refused outright while Obasanjo only adopted a gradual and staggered approach to remove fuel subsidy. Why was Tinubu so eager to devalue the official Naira rate by 220 percent and remove subsidy at the same time if he is not evil incarnate? No problem. Since you are doing the work of satan by calling evil good and cool, explain to hungry Nigerians that their suffering is in their best interest. 22 Likes 3 Shares |

So it is Buhari that removed petrol subsidy and devalued official naira rate from N450 to N1450 against dollar? Besides, in the past when I argued that Buhari was bad for Nigeria, the same Emilokan bots maintained that Buhuri was the second coming of Mandela and the greatest leader on earth.

Suggestions that could actually ease the suffering of the masses? Very funny and hilarious to think the demons in government would even consider such.

If you really want to fix Nigeria, you need to be forward looking and stop dwelling in the past.

There is no sabotage anywhere. When any country is gravitating towards any major policy shift, some would be right while others would be wrong after full implementation of the policy. Sowore and the SDP Presidential candidate both predicted that removing fuel subsidy would be a mistake of historical proportions while Obi, Atiku and Tinubu sided with the IMF inspired policy of subsidy removal. The IMF believe that poor countries that always approach them with begging bowls are overindulging their poor masses by providing cheap fuel so they put out lots of propaganda demonizing subsidy. It is like someone who wears Gucci and Fendi going to borrow money from someone that wears okrika. Their citizens pay a lot for fuel so it miffs them to see citizens of poor borrower nations buying cheap fuel. Now, the verdict is in and all Nigerians have seen first hand those who were correct and those who were wrong. Removal of fuel subsidy has decimated the middle class and enlarged the poverty pool by all measures. Beware of the delusional supporters of other candidates that would say subsidy removal would have had a different outcome with the candidate they supported. It is a lie. 1 Like |

I remember warning Nigerians never to allow subsidy be removed but them no gree hear word. According to the zombie supporters of Obi, Tinubu and Atiku, the savings from subsidy would be used to transform Nigeria to Dubai. In furtherance of their hallucinations, they said dangote refinery would bring down cost of petrol because shipping expenses would be eradicated. What many ignorant Nigerians fail to realize is that subsidy is a far cheaper option based on our current economic reality. How do you know that? If the FG is to restore the standard of living for Nigerians to the level it was before removing subsidy, it would cost far more than has been saved from subsidy removal. Before subsidy removal 30,000 minimum wage was still a bit reasonable, but now anything below 80,000 minimum wage cannot be sufficient. Can subsidy savings be enough for FG to afford paying 80,000 minimum wage? Only Sowore and the SDP presidential candidate were pro-subsidy and had a heart for the masses in the last presidential elections. The others were IMF puppets. Now here is a major difference between White societies and primitive black monkeys. In white societies people like Sowore that were correct in their diagnosis of subsidy would win seats in parliament in next elections but blacks would still continue to support candidates that were wrong. They are unrepentant and stubbornly tribal even to their own detriment. 27 Likes 3 Shares |
