When they join politics they begin to behave like idiots. Shey no be this man be senior consultant with IMF before?

delkuf:
so because it has been deregulated, they should be increasing the price like and we continue to suffer.

phantom:
I have explained to them tirelessly and repeatedly... FLOATING A CURRENCY is a dangerous policy with a few pros quite alright BUT it is undertaken by countries with economies that are strong enough to withstand any volatility. Even at that the big boys hardly float their currencies.

If you know what the US and UK , particularly the latter, do to KEEP THEIR CURRENCIES where they are, you will know Nigeria is just a joke led by dunces who don't understand what they are doing.

delkuf:
This guy is just so confident and relax. He is not even afraid. Tinubu just continue doing as he like. Has he some how bewitched this country that make him feel so relax that Nigerians cannot do anything to his government. Because I can't really explain it. He keep increasing fuel. And the way he does it, is what annoy me. He travels out and the next minute, he increase the price of petrol. Like he doesn't even send us. Is it that he has one secret power or he don see us finish. This is what is annoying me

Ready2speak:
I see the comments of so many dimwits who knows next to nothing about finance and funding profiling a man that runs banks and businesses both within and outside the country.

Why devalue and what margin/percentage is acceptable that will not negatively impact the currency should be the first question to ask.

Then comes the next question; Why borrow and what are the terms (long or short) and the money what is to be used for?
Is the economy capable to pay back in either short or long term?
To what use is the money or monies to be put? Is it for industries and manufacturing, Agriculture or infrastructures like roads, rail, power or any other area with direct impact on the economy?

Truth is when there is no money to run a country, there are options available. (1) Sell assets if there are any. (2) Tax the people more. (3) Reduce or cut down on cost of governance and deploy meagre resources to areas of critical importance.
(4) Borrowing.

If the last option is to borrow, where and where will the money be deployed is critical.
So those shouting Peter Obi down, it shows they don't even understand anything about finance.

Let them tell us what the alternative is out of the 4 options outlined. Let's debate it.

Kobojunkie:
Peter Obi would have devalued the Naira as Cardoso had done and then borrowed money -- taking even from the foreign reserves --to shore it up like Cardoso had also done?

Odingo1:
You guys are just afraid of your shadow shouting Ironsi to cover up your fear of other region managing their space. Enjoy your Lagos manipulation and if people converge in Lagos and make it more congested, don’t start crying foul that people should go back to their region.

Odingo1:
They are all politicians that hustle for their stomach

Odingo1:
If sure for the SW or Northern Nigeria, endorse regionalisation let’s compete on level ground, don’t stand on the unequal Nigeria structure were Lagos have it all against others and be beating chest.

If someone want to clear goods, one go to Lagos, if one to travel out, go to Lagos, they congested one state because of the greediness

Recently regional government was introduced on the National Assembly and South West and Northern Nigeria bring the bill down.

Odingo1:
Is a big lie, why is calabar or port harcourt ports not working Why most every Nigerian come to Lagos or Abuja to travel out of the country Which country in the world operate that system if not to limit other regions in Nigeria.

Odingo1:
Try to understand how Nigeria operates, Lagos progresses because they are ripping off other regions by been only place that have working international airport and Seaports, other regions are blocked politically by having that , also favoured by being former capital of Nigeria. Abuja on the other hand is the capital of Nigeria been developed by oil money the same way Lagos was developed as capital of Nigeria for more than 30 years with oil money, no other state have that privileges in Nigeria.

JagabanB:
The more u type, the more I see how mîsîñformèd u are, truly, we should encourage people not to take statements people make on the internet without verifying.
We overtook as biggest economy in Africa for decades, South Africans didn't cûrse their country because of that.
Do u realize they topped us because our GDP reduced not because theirs increased?
U see how uninformed u are?
Countries like South Korea have 50,000 SKW, the Ghanaian currency is even better than theirs when it comes to exchange rate, is Ghana as country better than them because of exchange rate?
Today South Africans are running to South Korea for better living, they left their better currency behind.
Are you aware that South Africa is high on the Iist of most unsàfè countries in Africa?

Cost of living in South Africa is better than Nigeria?
Are u living under the rock my friend?
The price of coca cola in SA can buy u same quantity of coca cola in Nigeria times 2.
Do u realize that data on MTN is cheaper in Nigeria than South Africa?
Do u realize that Nigeria pay lesser for DSTV than South Africa?
These just a few examples of common goods.
Why do South Africans live in sh∆cks?
Affording a home is difficult for most.
U need exposure, that's what u need.
People who lack exposure can't build their society, they rather sit and complain.

I hope u won't be so ûñfortûnàte to wake up one day and head to South Africa in search of greener pastures, u will be disappointed to ur bones.
Many people who think like u are there now and leaving is difficult because they can't even afford it.

OPICANTO2223:
Nawaooo another Peter Obi spërm milk for afunjarians to drink.

You see comments to identify them one by one

OPICANTO2223:
Third owamberian seeking for PO spërm milk

djon78:
Peter Obi should just form his own political party simple from the scratch

He and his associates

Leave labour party for abure them

He shouldn't even think of PDP

Form his own political party
His own brain child

That's what Buhari did with CPC party

Godfullsam:
Don't be silly

What made him a Yoruba best candidate?
How many yorubas voted for him (do your findings, balablu lost 42% of Yoruba votes)
Such a person cannot be seen as the best Yoruba candidate just because he is a Yoruba man. Obasanjo was also a Yoruba man remember.

The only way to restle power from these evil and self centered oldies is for Nigerians to shun tribalism and regional/religion sentiments and present a credible candidate who is neither a Yoruba, hausas nor igbo.

But if continue to recycle incompetents like obi, Atiku and kwakwanso to contend with balablu, we are only wasting our time.

VeryWickedBro:
They weren't even qualified for the job


I've said it here countless times and I'll say it again;
Never help poor people. They never appreciate it.

Fineman2:
From grass to grace and back to grass again, such ugly circle of life


Someone should please help these guys, I'm sure they've learnt their lessons


2 years ago, a lot of people envied them but they've become an object of ridicule today because of their bad behavior

cococandy:
Instead of taking your daughter home, you took the mad man for deliverance and still left your daughter with him in the same house. People really need to learn that you can’t pray away everything.
And staying married isn’t a do or die affair. Now look. That poor woman

CyrusVI:


Just wow. Each of those comments proves again that, with Obidients, you're not allowed to have a mind of your own

Its must be their own opinion on all issues and other Perspectives dont exist


Nigerian education system is worrying now. Who graduates Intolerable Students with Anarchist mindset(I thought its written on the Academic Certificates that they are found worthy in Character and Learning)

Ngadangapussy:
How the ewedu drinking coward forget easily


Do you remember the just concluded election of Tinubu?

Who were tribalitic then ?

Ok there you have your answer

Have a good day !

CrushObituaries:
Imagine supermod rushed this to the front page without a single comment. Imagine, and we think Nairaland will be fair and credible with this kind of despicable act.

YORUBAhelper:
God saved her

Because the mother would have opened tik Tok to blame the nurse

Then if she is Igbo chai

Adulfuls like helinues will now sit thier unwashed ikembe down to turn it into Yoruba vs Igbo fight

Toluwanise247:
This religion still exist . I don’t even understand anything you are saying

Sonnobax15:

Na wa oh......

To think that some people will sell their properties that's worth millions of naira in Nigeria only to japa and go and be living like slaves in another man's country is the last wonder on this earth 🙄

But then again,that box is equivalent to a Nigerian mansion tho

Sonnobax15:

Las las,the money we are all clamouring and hustling,and struggling for,and in the process oppressing our fellow men,we won't take them with us to our graves.......And that's the sweetest thing I've always loved about life and death..


Honestly,when I see people insulting our political leaders and all that,I only laugh.....Cuz the heart of an average Nigerian is even filled up with more wickedness that you can ever imagine....

Now tell me,is this not a pure definition of heartlessness? Some people are only out to make lives more difficult for their fellow humans..
