This single currency thing is a bad idea

The economic fundamentals in the sub region does not warrant such

And two, do they understand that this thing makes Nigeria especially lose its monetary sovereignty to the west African central bank?

If a Greece and Italy situation happens in West Africa (and yes, it will happen, look at the useless economies around WA) it means we will all be in trouble

It's finished for Africa

I can remember the Greece issue was borrowing and sanctions on them. The same thing is happening to Kenya. You should not borrow beyond what you can pay back. Let us dont leave out that tiny details oh.

Sadly, when our parents were young, one could exchange the Naira on the high street in London (and perhaps New York, but not sure)...

Our generation need to understand our history. Single currency has once been used in Western Africa. During that era, there was boom in the regional economy though run by the colonial masters. But when we started getting independence, we all left it and followed a new course. Today, we find ourselves in a huge mess.

We can still correct this problem by trying new things. Remember that Africa has been blessed with both human and mineral resources. Let's use put it to use.

I believe with an integrated economy within the region, we can start producing and distributing these products within the region. Sell at a moderate price to all within the region but at a higher cost to those outside the region. Ensure free trade zone are domiciled in all countries of the region and also encourage exchange of technical know how and information technology. With time the region should experience a substantial increase.

However, people fear that Nigeria being the largest economy in the region will be overweight and will take the highest burden. Well that can be true, but dont forget that we will also be strengthening our economy too. When we start production in large capacity and growing our produce in commercial quantities, shouldering these responsibilities will create better job opportunities for the teaming youths.

I still believe Naija is good to go anywhere, anytime! NAIJA NO DE CARRY LAST!

New world order is gradually becoming a reality. A system where the world uses one currency.

Repent oo. The end is here.

I'm amazed that we have not even understand that the world has been using single currency all this while. It is not new abeg.

Dont forget that there is no place you go in this world, even China that u cannot exchange dollars. Not just Dollars oh, Pound sterling, Euro, Dutch, Chinese Yen etc can all be used for transactions anywhere across the globe. That translate to mean they are world currency. But take naira note to China if u will find it easy to exchange?

Yohh:
I don't understand why some people are just unnecessary pessimistic, always antagonizing anything and everything of their own even without a rational backup explanation.

I'm hopeful this will strengthen our currency strength. Euro is very strong even more than d USD.
If this happens to be d end of naira, so be it. Who naira help before?

I support your statement. People are being unnecessarily pessimistic on anything new that is introduced. I wonder why people will just reject it when it has not been tried.

In Europe, Euro is generally acceptable. Britain used pound sterling and this did not affect the value of pound. And as we all know value for pound is higher than Euro. Using Euro did not reduce the value for pound sterling in Europe.

Coming to West Africa, there is nothing wrong if we introduce Eco as a single currency. It will rather help us to relate more, carryout business transactions with ease, develop and strengthen economic status of the region. It will also minimise or reduce the use of dollars in our transaction dealings.

We should encourage our own because if we dont we will continue to help west develop their economy while ours rot.

izzou:
But the same Nigerians blame all northerners for killings in the country?
The same Nigerians blame easterners for the reproach of drug peddling in other countries

Nobody has the time to scan 200 million people and separate who's good from who's bad

If I have a repeated case from a particular area, there's something definitely wrong with that area

The Ghanaians have a reputation. We don't. So allow them to keep theirs. It's not their fault that we can't penalize those who speak bad about us

Very well said. We wont keep quite and say nothing because Ghana have reputation and Nigeria dont. Rejecting such actions could be a starting point for building this reputation you are talking about. The true fact is, if we continue to fight ourselves and keep quite, such injustice will continue and they will repeat same to another person.

Ghanaians are together, here are we divided on this issue. Wow!

The problem of Nigeria is truly from Nigerian. I feel very sad reading what people are saying on this issue. Blaming 200million people for a crime committed by a few thousand. Why cant we just stand for ourselves on matters like this one.

We are suppose to rebuke such action from the Ghanian institution on our professor. It's very wrong to sack, interrogate and detain the professor for making a statement which is true because Nigerians contributed alot in Ghana. And if it's TRUE that Nigerian have contributed so much to the Ghanaian economy what is wrong for asking the Ghanaian authorities to help improve their welfare?

Look, I work with Ghanaians as colleagues. They shout at us and say things about Nigeria attimes but we never attack them for making statements about Nigeria. We take it as politics!

Why should they treat the professor in such an in-human manner?

Congratulation to Dino! He is an achiever and the people have given him another mandate.

Why must hausa wear hijab everywhere they go? igbo dey local jigida everytime?

We need to understand that this is an infringement of the right to religion, association or education of this little girl. The religion of Islam has commanded that all women (including the girl child) must cover their hair. It doesn't matter the tribe, be it Hausa, Yoruba or Igbo, as far as the lady is a Muslim. It is a must for her to cover her hair.

good concept....confirm photo-shop!

hmmmmmm, what is the essence of all this flamboyant display of wealth to the public? How many projects has he successfully completed in his senatorial district, talkless of kogi state where he came from.

With all these moneys, cars and houses how many lives has he changed? What impact has he in Kogi state (since he assumed office)? How many scholarship is he given to student in Kogi state? How did Dino get his money, what is his financial background?


People just like you because you know how to talk and show-off wealth...cut it off. There are people with more wealth, who does show off. Example is Dangote (who is far richer, than you are).

I don't get it, Ekiti state is a PDP state. why are they coming to announce federal government intention to manipulate the election?

There is certainly something fishy going on within the PDP in Ekiti State. And with all these, one can deduce that Fayose's election was rigged. Its very clear that he come in to power through the back door.

Politicians should allow the people make their choices of leaders and they should stop imposing people on us citizen.

kkboy:
AND FINALLY SHAME ON YOU THAT WILL BaE WATCHING AS PMB RETURNS TO POWER IN 2019.

My guy, anger will not take you anywhere. It will only make things worse. Look, we already know the Nigerian system when it comes to elections.

So many people don't want Buhari to return to power but guess what? Not all of them will come out to vote out Buhari. They will seat back home during the elections giving chance to the Pro-Buhari supporters to vote and do everything to return the him back to power.

Not just that alone, some people will also collect money and vote for Buhari. Forgetting that they complained and spoke about changing the hands of power. And I hope it will not surprise you that the people you are shaming are the ones to sponsor the return of Buhari to power.

We need to have one voice, one mind and be determine to change the faith of our dear country by coming out amass to vote and resist any thing like bribe / tip.

Who told you a minister cannot pay for 280million mortgage house. They will pay from their breast pocket. This article is projecting the Ministers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to be poor. I laugh when he said "some of the ministers squirt with family and friends" -
in Abuja? you go fear naaa! Abeg, forget that idea. See, some of them are logged in a hotels since they were confirmed. I mean Transcorp Hilton oh, Sheraton, La-Meridian Hotel etc. This are top hotels in Nigeria and they are very expensive.

Look, make Buhari try fight kwarrupshin for all I care, some will still have their way. Also don't forget that some of this ministers are past governors or might have held public office at one time. They have money already before they were made ministers. I'm very sure the house is worth more than 280million that was why he is being summoned.

My people, the truth of the matter is that this administration is trying to fight corruption but they can only reduce / minimise the rate of kwarrupshin, people will always have their way.

The lawmaker representing Kogi West senatorial District in the National Assembly said he was not surprise that the Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, will quickly meet with the Minister of Agriculture in order to make the Confluence State a testing ground for the proposed Cattle Colonies in the country.

Dino Melaye who spoke in a statement made available to newsmen on Thursday evening noted that the governor’s latest shenanigans was not surprising in the sense that money was involved.

He maintained that the Federal Government will definitely make funds available to Bello to kick-start the pilot scheme in Kogi State.

“Therefore, as a true representative of the people of Kogi West senatorial zone and on behalf of my constituents, we warn in strong terms that our soil, land, water and air cannot be used for cattle colonies.

“Let it be clear to all the insensitive people behind the idea that Kogi West will resist the establishment of any cattle colony within our domain politically, spiritually, traditionally and with any means available within the ambit of the law”, he said.

Abeg, arrest this guy. which day him join soldier before him fit wear uniform?

dabossman:
I'm beginning to think most Nigerians just believe everybody lies about their age. It's stupid, but I guess that's just the way they are programmed.

Are you saying that this lady is truly 25?

Sincerely? Really ?

It is very evident she is trying to hide her age here. Its just "too clear" she is lying about her age.

Anyways, its no issue, just about one's opinion!

Profcamsey:
She meant 35...Typo error.

Yes, e b like say na typos error!

This babe fit say she be 15 sef! Im very sure, na 15yrs she be

comshots:
This is the month that most girls are ready to say yes to every tom,dick and harry for a relationship.This is also the month that most guys avoid girls.So guy,the choice is yours.

Olofofo! Wetin concern am for this matter? Yeye person. Bring your own car oga! if not na jealousy won kill finish

Evablizin:
Drammy krane shut up and remain silent,who invited you? Go inside and work on your crumbled career and dignity and stop poke nosing into someone else's business.

I support the actress! It now time to start speaking our mind about issues bothering our country. We cannot continue to hold/depend on the government for everything. The mosque and churches (religious bodies in general) too should contribute to the development of the state. There are mosque and church generating a very huge amount each weekend with the number of population attending services. Instead of using all this huge money to sponsor bill boards adverts, build 22nd century design auditorium/sky-scrappers, buy private jet and living luxurious life (alone), they can also support the government by building more roads, bridges and/or even come together to build power distribution stations so that local populace can benefit from the divine blessings (on our tithes and zakats) from God. They should also REDUCE VERY EXORBITANT FEES CHARGED AS TUITION (so that both members and non members can benefit).

i don yan my mind. whether my English blend or not, na u sa bi?

vedd:
He wished he knew the value of that trophy...apart from the strength he was able to muster to lift it.


Give him the Islamic flag...and see how gleefully he smiles.

Whether you like him or not, him don lift the trophy. If him no know the value of trophy why did he invite them in the first place?

So lets be happy

gberra:
FFK is insanely idiotic.. He never deemed it fit to apologize for saying Buhari was never coming back alive. But as usual, in his many psychotic displays, would lovingly press the MuMu button of his gullible Idiots and Pigs...



FFK pressing their more mumu button.

FFK is not only an idiotic pig, he such mumuric clown of the highest order.

Instead of him to come out clean and say the speech put him in a very dangerous position, him de deceive himself with his stupid statement.

Fool, The guy just de make me blow English wey no de dictionary. God don catch am.

abeg, this is nothing new. e b like say this op no de watch football. this is not the first time wey female paramedics de attend to injured male players on d field of play.

in a foreign club like Chelsea FC, there was once a female paramedics who stood as the first doctor to the club.

so, as far as she fine guys no get problem.��������

fuckingAyaya:
So he should sell his car or what? Try to appreciate show me what ur senator has done so far.even me I can't boost of ordinary gutter for my senator.#Dino melaye tried

When did he accomplished all this because as a Kogite, this is very strange. A Senator way never even get a single town hall meeting with citizens of his locality.

Abeg, make we speak out the truth. All this fit begin appear after him don learn his lessons.

It is good that he has realized his mistakes and trying to correct it.

verygudbadguy:
Who else has noticed Dino's calmness after the recall saga. It will be better for him to maintain this kind of behaviour and continue to sponsor bill that will bring the desired change to the people of his constituency, State and Nigeria at large.

If he maintain his cool, he will start gaining respect from every angle he has been ridiculed.

Black is beautiful o. See as "common sense" Senator's face wrinkle

Chairman, if na you nko? You no go humble? He just realized that he is not all that untouchable (you know say some people believe they are untouchable). If him no humble, citizens go humble am!!

Tecno66:

Those haters! They will always bring something up to divert the Nigerian attention.They are all liars, criminals and falsehood spreaders.

Eastfield1:

Where is that yeye shameless Gov. Of Ekiti state. Se bi him say President Buhari is under machine.

Only fooools will vote Fayose in 2019. He is a false carrier, a liar, a winchy, person who wishes other people badluck except for himself, a spreader of false information and ill statement.

This people think say na play we de play here. Them intentionally refused Fayose 'the one gang soldier' to join the trip.

MDsambo:
Ever heard of the word "sarcasm"?

BTW I'm a northerner, Kaduna to be precised

Sarcasm? So what are you saying? It's fine you're from Kaduna. Expantiat the meaning of "sarcasm" to relate growing potatoes in Kaduna.

MDsambo:
Nothing good comes from the north

Why can't we appreciate our own instead criticizing one another.

Is there anything wrong to have potatoes grown in Kaduna? And who told you nothing comes out of the north. Who are the highest producers of tomatoes, pepper, Jinger e.t.c. in Nigeria? Abeg, keep ur commonsense under your shoes.
