Their unjust hatred for the west usually blinds them. Now they can enjoy the miracle of Socialism.

On a plus side; you can literally bang on of this hotties for $1 a day. All thanks to Socialism.

Why should we be far better off?

The late Hugo chavez implemented socialist programs that significantly backfired after the unexpected crash in the global oil prices.

Nonetheless, Venezuela has better infrastructural facilities than Nigeria. Venezuela refines its own crude oil for domestic use unlike Nigerian. The only similarities between Nigeria and Venezuela is the Dependant on imported items.



These key issues i have raised above accounts for most of the problems we face in Nigeria today. it also a testament to the mismanagement of the previous governments before Buhari.


If Buhari didn't implemented important economic policies and austerity measures when he became the president of Nigeria and continued with the waste like experienced under Jonathan and those before him, Nigeria will have been worse off..

Must u call him/her idiot to pass ur message? What the hell is wrong with you? If u have issues to trash with buhari why not take a trip to Abuja. Its not like u have provided a solution to Nigeria's problems. Haba!

BluntBoy:
It is the structure, not the leadership per se.

I will repeat, bring all the past presidents of America to govern Nigeria and they will fail.

I am sure that some of our past presidents had noble intentions until they got there and saw the reality of things. We must first begin with the structures that slow down decision making and we must work toward pressuring the reviewing of huge, unnecessary expenditures, especially the salaries that public office holders earn. I heard that a local government chairman in Nigeria goes home with a total of at least a million naira every month. These are things we should work on.

Bizibi:
no need talking about buhari any longer because the more we talk the more he makes blunders....right now some of us are praying and waiting for an emergency sitting in the chambers concerning the budget and I keep wondering why they made that blunder and move against saraki when they knew there is no money in the system.

BluntBoy:
More than 50 years have not been enough and we have had 16 years of democracy before this administration came on board and you are expecting a miracle in three years? I said things should be "moving" seems we are stagnant.

Caseless:



It was long paid for and the report says it's a loan from China? You need education.

BluntBoy:
But we are not doing badly in relations to another country that relies heavily on oil export.

It is not Buhari's fault that the country is not in the rank of the United States (if that is what you mean by "we could have been better". The man has barely spent 3 years in government.

theoldpretender:
I like the tax idea, at least the land remains productive

Not Zimbabwe style invasion that may satisfy justice, but leave the economy messed up

BluntBoy:
The problem is that you don't ever want to see anything good in the president. That is just your problem. Supposing we got that low, you would readily heap curses on the president. You think it is easy to manage oil crisis in an overly corrupt country like Nigeria?

theoldpretender:
Yeah, I just hope Ramaphosa does.not carry out his land expropriation plans.

Yes, whites have stolen most of the land, but the same white farmers earn lots of forex for the nation. And there aren't enough qualified black farmers to replace them(and I say this with sadness, and as a Pan Africanist)

theoldpretender:
Nigeria.under Buhari did several things differently from Venezuela

1.Restricted imports.

2.Saved forex. Between 2015 and now, our reserves went from 28bn to 41bn $. Venezuela is down to less than $12bn.

3.Exchange rate won't go back to previous rate till oil goes above $140 per barrel, which is what we need it to be to balance the books.

4.When oil prices crash, oil countries take.heavy loans to stay afloat. When prices go up, we need to pay those loans back. Another reason why we don't have forex to buffer the naira.

5.Bubu is making one mistake though, subsidy. Yes, Bubu pretends there is no subsidy, but the truth is we have a subsidy that is keeping fuel below 145naira. And no deregulation means no investment, no new jobs,.no. added economic benefit.

6.One way we are not like Venezuela, we still have a lot of manufacturing at home, plus many of our manufacturers have learned to source raw materials locally. Example, we make toilet paper and beer in Nigeria, Venezuela has closed.down most of its beer and toilet roll factories(the last ones.closed a year ago)

BluntBoy:
But we are doing better than Venezuela, so what is your problem?

theoldpretender:
Zimbabwe problem is that they handed over white farms, a major hard currency earner to untrained black farmers.

Of course economic collapse results.

If we want a Zimbabwe type economy, that means we sack all oil workers and hand over their jobs to people without the training.

BluntBoy:
But when oil prices dropped sharply in 2014, the government was suddenly faced with a gaping hole in its finances and had to cut back on some of its most popular programmes.

BluntBoy:
That is what I keep on telling people. Buhari has tried well in managing the oil crisis. Some people think it is not an achievement but they forget that Nigeria is a third world country and for her to have survived the crisis, then the president deserves praise.

Seeing piscy steps turns me off.
What happened to escalators?
This is Nigeria's capital city for crying out loud, it should be class and nothing less but class.

But in any way, half a loaf is better than none. Many could have looted the money and nobody go cough.

osagix:
RAILWAY TRACKS PASSING THROUGH WARRI , ABRAKA ETC HAVE BEEN COMPLETED ON GROUND AND LEFT UNUSED OVER THE LAST 15YRS SINCE THE ERA OF OBJ. THESE WERE ALSO MAINTAINED DURING THE ERA OF GEJ.
I HAVE DRIVEN OVER (AT ABRAKA) & BELOW (AGBARHO) THESE TRACKS SEVERAL TIMES, SO APC GOVERMENT SHOULD STOP CLAMING WHAT THEY DID NOT CONSTRUCT. IT IS HOWEVER NOT OUT OF PLACE ANY RESPONSIBLE GOVT TO MAINTAIN AND REPLACE WORN OUT TRACKS.
