The problem there is not about Yoruba or Igbo. It the Igbo property developer against shops owners.

Those are practical economic questions. What is hot money? What steps did Soludo take to insulate the economy from the effect of hot money.

The president is ruining the economy. I have written off the economy since July or probably earlier.

Sanusi, Soludo and Utomi have all condemned his economic policies. Utomi went as far as saying he should shut up.

He is a man of integrity but his economics suck. The naira will hit 600 this year if this budget is passed and he does not devalue. Financial Times of London called his foriegn exchange restrictions the height of foolishness.
How do you insulate the economy in this environment?

What are the injectectable practices that should occur under a mono-resource economy when faced with decline in foreign savings earnings comparative to export earnings.

You open to all sort of declines if your productivity level is not enhance to reducing your dependency.

A million devaluation can't stop dependency of easy rent money - oil.

I'm not saying devaluation is bad but, you must take into congnisance the economic instrument that affect substituting goods and services e.g agriculture imports

Getting education is not necessarily that you should be a university graduate.

Look around you, get informative sources: Internet, news, international social and economic news. It will greatly enhance your knowledge.

Stop forming local champion. Probably, you are operating in a box and thinks the world revolves around your local knowledge

There's some much to learn out there. Broaden your horizon. Wisdom is not your inheritance. There were people who were wiser than Methusellah.

What is "Hot money"? What is keynesian spending? What is an expansionary budget? What effect does an inflationary budget have on a currency? What is a loose monetary policy? How good is your economics?
My guess is you are still a student who's learning the basics.

I'm in the real world where theory is applied to daily occurrences. The stage you are, I had done almost 30 years ago.

In short, I'm a realist. I practicalize the economic challenges daily; I'm not a learner.

But does Canada have a rate of 1.45 officially and 2.50 at the black market? That is because the government there allowed the currency to depreciate naturally.

Buhari upon assuming power said he won't devalue the naira that he does not want Nigerians to suffer. Its like saying you don't like 1+1= 2.
There also no empirical prove that devaluation will solve the problem.

It's just a matching valuation of certain figure to a stated figure. It won't increase the reserve. Non essential importers are still going to demand for more dollars even at $1 to N1000.

Nigeria, as it is now, can't sustain the import of everything.

Canada do not use the same economic system as Nigeria. They are used to that type of economic determinant, where the controlling factor is free; per se, demand and supply in common language

What would you do over a time if you want to stop going miles to a friend to borrow a plate to put your food in other to eat?

Permit me to say, you lack conscience. You call d cries of people "ignorance" and "hatred". Lets say u re amongst those who live above d average and ure not affected by things as it is. Go to a market tomorrow and see how much prices have tripled, making it difficult for d low earned ones to meet up, taking dat incomes re even been reduced despite d rise in cost of living. Yes oda countries av their own issues and, take it or leave it, its citizens re also complaining. Our leaders re put in power for their citizens, to hear their cries and sort a way out for them. Things re beyond bad as it is ryt now in Nigeria nd people av to voice their hardships, its wats expected in democracy. I feel pain wen people come to my Mum's shop to buy something nd they re told how much prices have skyrocketed, leaving them with no option but to settle for little or nothing. People re suffering and in d last few months, it has become worse, the gov should help its citizens, Buhari should rise to d occasion and proffer lasting solutions rather than keeping up with d blame games. #painsinmyheart
You are finding it very hard to comprehend what ignorance means; that's is your bane.

There was no suggestion in what I wrote that says people should not complain.

When you curse, as most of them often do, you are inveriably showing your ignorance of what is going on globaly.

Buhari or any president for that matter, would never wish hardship on his citizenry.

Read to comprehend; show that you grasp the discourse or just give your own opinion.

Your conscience can't be as regenerated as mine. I've seen more than you've ever seen or witness.

It a pity most of you guys are ignorant of what is obtainable in international currency and the economic downturn facing all oil exporting countries.

Two years ago, $1 Canadian dollar was $1.18 US dollars.

Currently, it's $1.45 to $1 US dollars.

Every commodity has since double in price atleast, in Toronto.

So sad that some of you are ignorant or perphabs full of hatred.

I wonder who suffer most when you continue to wish evil on your government. Suffice to say this is even common amongst the poor, unemployable, tribalist

The way you young guys think is abysmal.

From experience, majority of workers in that market would be Igbos who are
plying their trade in phones and computers; just like they do in Lagos.

This same thing could happen anywhere under a different circumstance.

This is the problem with majority of Nigerians. They leave what
is substance to converse on things that's irrelevant.

These people have been milking you dry from time long ago and some are
so foolish, logically dysfunctional and agrarian.

There was a court suit between Oba Otudeko (as Econet investor) and
Wale Tinubu ( obviously fronting for Jagaban, obviously, Lagos state share was sold to Wale Tinubu) for selling Econet without
proper guidelines.

In submission, Ibori, Attah, Jagaban are all complicit.

Hajj cannot be scrapped, it is a command frm almighty Allah on every muslim who is capable of doing so evidence of whc is clearly stated in d holy Quran. Pilgrimage to Jerusalem can be scrapped for it is just an immitation of muslim hajj, it has no source in christian bible.
Do you understand his opinion at all?

Pilgrimage, of whatever form, is a personal obligation.
Why should government, for any reason, sponsor a personal religious obligation.

It doesn't make sense that some people should be sponsored with others tax
money to follow their religious tenet.

Kids of today are being hoodwink to believe everything from these
useless politicians; most of them.

What's the relevancy of the statement credited to Oshiomole to what he said about the
former president failures in allowing thieves to loot the country dry.

I just don't understand why you kids allow these useless people to divert your attention
from the real issue of nation building.

Oshiomole made a political statement based on election and qualified it with "when"

The other assertion was that the former president allowed impunity to trive.
Was that a lie!

How can someone says he buys a 99 Camry for N650,000
and it's not stolen. Even if you buy a severe damaged vehicle
fr0m Canada or USA, is the car going to fly to Nigeria without
incurring any costs.

@tonero230, things dont work like that oooo.

Buy 99 Camry:

Duty in 9ja:

just these alone without profit and duty, will run you to minimum of $1,800 USD
