Hehehe

The government should just do anything to revive the dead economy.




Meanwhile, new year celebration is over. Some shameless people on their way back to Lagos

You must be very stupeed,if peradventure you still believe some people own Lagos.
Lagos is our collective inheritance,all of us as Nigerians owns Lagos just like Abuja.
So it is wise to say it is a no man's land

Can you just imagine after nyesom wike built Abuja just as he is doing now with our Tax payers money, tomorrow some idiots from the tribe that happens to speak the most language in Abuja will wake up tomorrow to start forming indigenes.

GuruboiNaija:
President Bola Tinubu, in the past six months, has been rolling back a number of policies initiated by his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari.

Even though both Messers Tinubu and Buhari are of the same political parties, there have been glaring contrasts between them, especially on the economic policy side.

Mr Tinubu, a former Governor of Lagos State, is more towards the liberal economic side, while Buhari, a former military leader, is more protectionist. In 2013, both came together to form a united Front against former President Goodluck Jonathan.

For eight years, Mr Tinubu was quiet on the policies of the government and only spoke up when a policy appeared to be targeted at him during the election.

During the election, Mr Tinubu openly disagreed with the former administration on the implementation of the Naira redesigning policy.

With his emergence, Mr Tinubu has continued to strip some of the policies embarked on by former President Buhari.

Top six policy reversed by President Tinubu

Removing ASUU from IPPIS

For years, university lecturers and President Tinubu fought over the implementation of the IPPIS platform.

The lecturers argued that their peculiarities do not fit the IPPIS platform, stating that the platform was denying them some allowances and benefits.

Every year, the impasse led to months of shutdown of schools. Under Buhari, Nigerian universities were shut down for 1,086 days.

It would be recalled that ASUU proposed UTAS as an alternative but the Buhari administration rejected it, leading to a prolonged industrial action that kept students at home for long.

Ban on Cryptocurrency

One other major policy this government has unrolled is the ban on cryptocurrency imposed by former CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele.

The CBN under Emefiele, on February 5, directed all banks to close all accounts involved in cryptocurrency transactions within their systems.

Recently, Yemi Cardoso, the new CBN governor directed a reversal of that policy, lifting the ban on cryptocurrency.

43 Items on FX ban

The CBN on October 12 lifted the 8-year ban on 43 items restricted from accessing foreign exchange from the official market.

.ng recalls that in 2015, the CBN banned 43 items, such as rice, cement and poultry, from accessing forex.

In lifting the ban, the monetary authorities say importers of the items are allowed to purchase foreign exchange in the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market.

It would be recalled that protectionism policies formed the bedrock of the Buhari administration.

The former President shut down land borders for years in order to protect the investment in the agricultural sector, particularly rice.

Mr Emefiele had through the anchor borrowers programme, pumped money into the rice production sector.

Phase out of old Naira

The redesigning of the Naira was a major talking point during the election period, as many believe it was targeted at President Tinubu.

The policy led to the scarcity of the Naira, which caused severe hardship as people could not access cash to do even basic transactions.

Some state governments challenged the policy at the Supreme Court. However, the court did not give a verdict until after the election. The court ruled that the two currencies should co-exist till December 2023.

However, in November, the government announced the extension of the validity of the old currency indefinitely.

40 per cent IGR of schools

The Buhari administration, through the Finance Act of 2020, mandated a 40 per cent auto deduction of gross IGR of partially funded agencies, including federal government-owned institutions.

The current administration moved to implement the law in October but later bowed to the pressure from the universities.

jogojogo:
You are full of excuses because your creativity ends in fake products
The lamentations you pour here is akin to a boy accusing his parents for not sending him to School is the reason he is poor. The kind of noise you make, it appears you don't even need Tinubu or any body to drive development...very shameful excuses....Is the reason you are backward ibecause you don't have a Port Harcourt or Delta or Kano? You even have comprehension challenge
I don't ķnow what River was dredged to have Kano more developed than your osu land
You are creative, yet you want to be spoonfed

PressMyButton:
Pretty much everybody is back home having a blast, there are lots of fun, catching up with friends and families, different kinds of ceremonies all lined up at this festive period. However thrilling it might feel, it's nothing compared to making your home a home and not a guest house. The prevaling economic, social, territorial and regional realities throws a huge challenge to igbos to build a commercial center in the southeast. Almost 90% of the wealth transfered back home this December comes from outside. The fact remains that wealth is not distributed through crumbs sprinkling but by proper deliberate investments. The crumbs you take back home every year ending is unstainable to the development of the region. Several decades after, Igbos should be aggressive in replicating a Lagos, PH, Delta, or Kano in the southeast to boost sustainability. Would igbos ever challenge themselves to build home and attract investors than rushing down to catch the next bus going to other regions at the begining of a new year.

EmperorCaesar:


I have always maintained that death isnt a negative occurence and so no need to pity the dead

We only grieve cause the dead person is a big loss to his people and they will sure miss him, since he's been in one way or the other, involved in their everyday life

The dead dont even know they are dead, and what they experience is total shift in consciousness and eternal peace like we all felt in the year 1800 when we all arent aware of whats happening around us

What if the other side is actually lively and great, then our mourning is useless and a disservice to the dead person

BlueStripper:
Welcome to Nigeria.


If you don't like the cost of sugar, plant sugarcanes next year, extract the juice when matured and dry to make sugar.

If you don't like the cost of salt, find a river with salt water, scoop some bowls, pour some good quantity into a pot and cook till it's dried. Then scrape the salt and store.


STOP COMPLAINING!

Just like our brother on the front page some days ago, instead of Crying over the cost of chickens, set a trap and catch some BUSH RATS or Rabbits. Or raise some chicks from January 2024 and eat same in December. Do you know that rabbit meat is the best white meat in the world?

Keep some Goats and extract milk for the family instead of COMPLAINING. Do you know that Nigerian Dwarf Goats are the best in milk production Worldwide?

Instead of looking for RICE and SALAD to eat during festivities, GO BACK TO YOUR STAPLES! Eat POUNDED YAM, EFORIRO, KARKASHI SOUP, OGBONO AND EBA.


STOP COMPLAINING! Every country went through this stage of lack and heightening inflation.

all dis....
So now we are not moving forward na backwards abi ?
