At least to push it's acceptability in instead of trying to pack the money at once...

You see oyinbo..., Fear them... If they sell you something, even if it's still looking healthy, trust me there is something going down about that thing u haven't seen yet...

When the owners of shop right announce it for sale, you will wonder what is wrong with them... Because as at then, it's malls were all very busy and bubbling with large crowd... But economics from their stables have advice them to sell off... They were told from them on, it will be decline... As good as they were, they followed advice and sold off...

The Nigerian man thought he knew more than ppl who established, manages and saw its peak are seeing... He gave them billions and changed ownership...

Since then, steadily there was gradual decline... and now very visible ones...


Next is DStv which has been sold off... Sensing fast decline spending for leisure as poverty grips Nigeria, again with the growing popularity of internet channels subscriptions t. V ...

i dont know why you chose to complicate whats Complicated already .... Naira is just a note ,., consider it an instrument like "trumpet" ... it is what you blow into the trumpet that will sound out .. digest that

Naira or dollar being the problem is not a valid assertion. they are just mere tools of transactions and national symbol

Not only domestic product strengthen the currency I AGREE But what you seems not to know is a low driven productive economic mitigates "Capital flow" .. Investors work with circumspection tew

Controlling Naira supply is not a measure to strengthen the Naira in real sense, instead its a measure to curb " Inflation" in most cases

See dont creat unnecessary CONFUSION ... what can strengthen the Naira( organic) is " Local Productivity and Policies driven toward facilitating " Enabling Environment"

From optimal productivity you get impactful high GDP , options for export that consolidated balance of trade, and lastly mass production compels "deflation" smiley

Govt Poilicies is like blowing into the trumpet, policies are the sky above economic activities, it can either creat harvest or a famine

So Far Govt is our Problem, they know whats right but they wont do it cos Nigeria's setback is a blessing to the ruling class
U dnt seem to think outta the box.. u are stuck in the textbooks .. I am a vast thinker... I know the end from the beginning...

.u continue to believe productivity is mainly for exchange rate valuation... While in real sense it is for economy ratings and for employment...


Ur productivity is aimed at restraining over import, and promote export

Restrictions if import means saving hard earned funds within the state, promotion not export means earning other ppls hard earn funds through exchanges...


Now answer this question...

Country A does 10percent GDP, but have 90% GNP-GDP...

Country B does 90% GDP, but 10% GNP- GDP...

Which one of the two situations do u believe will strengthen the local currency more .?

As much as i am trying to understand your POV, i cant make sense of Naira is the problem, how ??
Naira dont nuture itself, moreover naira is just reflection of your economic activities and those economic activities are mainly influence by govt policies

To drive Naira up, we must upscale productivity, rite

Now look at Tinubu actions and inactions keenly is it driven to upscale productivity?? does his policies reflect "Enabling environment" do you know what it cost to run a business daily now, ask CEOs

Naira can't grow itself, it's highly dependent on the government direction
First of all... The naira is not detached from Nigeria, so if u mentioned naija being the problem through policies, then u agree that in naira vs dollars, naira is the problem not dollars...

Again, I want u to know that not only domestic production strengthen a nations currency...the general name is "capital inflow"..

Now alot of ppl achieve capital inflows through export sales, but many also achieve that through international repatriation of funds made abroad...

Another mechanism for strengthen of the naira is to control naira supply...and allow the FX to flow in..but strictly guide that all local transactions are done in the local currency...all you need do is pay the three tier of governments in FX earned currency...and I ligated them to exchange and must pay for contracts and wages in the local currency..

Then u go to the cbn and control the rate of cash supply to make so much FX to chase few naira..that way, naira will appreciate...

Why i said NAIRA/Nigeria is the problem is because, our balance of payments has been +be for the past 3years, yet our currency remains weak..this is simply because of excess loan servicing payments...

So the fed govt has become the sole reason for worsening local currency through excessive international borrowing

It's not just enough to come here to complain and bring vague analysis even when you have no single clue about what goes on and how to curb it.

Milestone achieved, no commendation. Bad news, you spread and condemn.
Try and get as much import subsitition industry, then create a stronger naira...

This is simply by borrowing less ND less, naira will become very strong again
PoliticsRe: Dollar No Longer King But Atiku, El-rufai, Obi Won’t Celebrate - Onanuga by blacksam01: 11:38pm On Sep 02, 2025
This people dnt even understand economics....

This is also not good for Nigeria as the dollar is not our problem, but the naira..

How u will know this..? While we use dollar 98% times in our international transactions, why has pounds also risen against the naira...? What is also the reason, Euro went up...? America too..? U see..? Dollar isn't ur problem, but naira..

With time excessive demand for the Chinese yuan for export will rise it's value also... It's a common logic..

With this Nigeria is merely helping china achieve it's aim of dominance over America ND there is absolutely nothing in it for Nigeria to gain...

Nothing!!!!
HealthHealth Insurance: Have You Registered..? by blacksam01(op): 5:21pm On Sep 02, 2025
After reading through comments section regarding the thread of the OP who takes care of his girlfriend in this harsh economy... He among others listed was covering her on a rather cheap health insurance..

In the comments, many wanted to know how he does that...

It appears many do not know that the cheapest way to medically take care of one's self is to have a health insurance policy...

What is a health insurance policy..?
This is a binding contract between you who buys this policy and the state medical board that whenever illnesses listed on your contract appears to hit u, u are thereby free to visit any of the state health board listed medical center to get treated with a specified arrangements...


What are the different types of packages..?

There are the simplest package: this one entails usually general common illnesses, like fever, malaria, thypiod, cold, catarrh, cough, etc.. those common sickennessess we usually ask the pharmacist to help out... They will be listed in your contract

Are there other packages..?

Yes, there is. They have packages which over all the fist listed pancakes and yet more, like cost of child delivery, cost of CS operations for child delivery, covers appendix operations, covers minor operations..

There are still other packages which covers even more complex operations...

Are they all same cost of insurance contract..?

No, they are not.. like u suspected, the simplest form of it are usually the cheapest and damages from 12k to 15k.

The next stage increases as the case may be.. but trust me . It's usually far far far cheaper than coming to the hospital in the event of illness to seek medical assistant...

Where can one find this health insurance cover..?

It is everywhere, there is that by the federal government, called NHIS, and numerous others by state governments named different names...

Must it be only with the government hospitals..?

No, you can be contracted at any hospital closest to you. All you need do is walk into your nearest hospital and ask of the insurance policies of either the federal government and state governments alike...

How long does the contract last..?

It is usually for one year, one time. Payment, so u can imagine payment just 12k for one year, and getting the hospital to treat you for free all round the year..

What if I relocated out of that state..?

No problems still, but if you know u have a high probability of relocation, then it is best advices you take on insurance of the federal government which is the only one which can cover you accross states..

Does my insurance cover my entire family..?

No, but in some cases parents cover also covers for children within certain ages .. it depends on the state and it's program...

Conclusion!

It is a life safer for health expenses, plz try and register
