nduchucks: I'm aware of the memo you posted and it does not change my stance. Of course! Nothing can change your stance. If you believe that a one-page memo from Iweala seeking the GEJ's approval to borrow the money does not imply that the lady authorized the transfer of these funds, then I have to conclude that you are quite naive.
Iweala was only seeking GEJ's approval to borrow the funds after she has already approved Dasuki's request. Nowhere in the memo did Iweala seek GEJ's approval to transfer the funds to Dasuki. All she asked for was the authorization to borrow the money. Read the memo again: "His request is sequel to the meeting you chaired with the committee on use of recovered funds, where the decision was made that the recovered Abacha funds would be split 50-50 between urgent security needs...""This letter is to seek your approval to borrow these funds for now..."Reading comprehension isn't everyone's forte. I understand. |

nduchucks: Madam Iweala is a disgrace to all Nigerians and will pay for her actions soon enough. At the very least, she is an accessory to the massive looting which took place through Dasuki since she authorized the payment of these huge sums to Dasuki.
She is now forming an ignorant, patriotic, and innocent lil' biatch after her actions lead to the deaths of thousands of innocent Nigerians at the hands of Boko Haram.
This investigation has an international component and as we continue to follow the money, insha Allahu, she will have to face her own charges.
I'm sure like Tompolo, ihejirika has also gone into hiding.
IMHO all of these barayi deserve the firing squad treatment. @ Bolded As far as this specific incident is concerned, I am sure you don't have the full information.

NaLaugh: Valid points.
However, a ban on certain imports to any country is a necessary step in maintaining that country's currency value.
Regardless of short term effects, the focus should be on long term sustainability. I mean, why in the hell should Nigeria be importing tooth picks to begin with? The items weren't banned from being imported...read again. Long story short: a high exchange rate will affect EVERYONE. There's no getting around it. |

NaLaugh: Imports are a valid example. However, as far as I know, major importers whose activities are likely to impact the economy, and cost of everyday products, do have access to official rates. Dude, you want to see this: CBN Bans 40 Items from Accessing Forex.
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on Tuesday officially stopped the sale of dollars for a list of 40 items as it seeks to reduce pressure on the naira as well as preserve the country’s external reserves.
These items include rice, cement, margarine, palm kernel/palm oil products/vegetable oil, meat and processed meat products, vegetable and processed vegetable products, poultry –chicken, eggs, turkey - private airplanes/jet, Indian Incense, tinned fish in sauce - Geisha/Sardines, cold roiled steel sheet and galvanised steel sheets.
Others are roofing sheets, wheel barrows, head pans, metal boxes and containers, enamelware, steel drums, steel pipes, wires, rods, wire mesh, steel nails, security and razor wire, wood particles boards and panels, wood fiber board and panels, plywood boards and wooden doors.
In addition, sourcing of forex for the importation of toothpicks, glass and glassware, kitchen utensils, tables, textiles, woven fabrics, clothes, plastic and rubber products, soap and cosmetic, tomatoes/tomato paste and Eurobond/foreign currency bond/share purchase.

NaLaugh: Each time I see one these "Naira Crashes" topics on Nairaland, I rush to check the official rate, to see if it's a sweet time to send cash to Naija.
But it is ALWAYS hovering at the same $1 = 199.05. Other than the very few people in Nigeria who have to make payments in USD for visas and such, I don't see how the "black market" rates are relevant to average Nigerians.
These fluctuations at the "black market" are only driven by arbitration done by people running that market. It has zero reflection on the strengths or weaknesses of the Naira. ONLY an official change in the exchange rate signals that.
At this moment, the official exchange rate remains $1 = 199.05. I am no economist, but remember imports... |

OZAOEKPE: see them, they allow their children to go to school, and keep them till they are ripe, they now marry them off to rich kids. they go ahead to tell their poor supporters to marry off their under age children to old agbayas all in the name of religion, only a fool would listen to them. the rules of religion, were made only for the poor, while the rich violates, and will make heaven.
common sense should rule first before religion. Remember the Golden Rule: He who has the gold makes the rules. |

You just lack social skills - which can be easily learned. You are most likely not proud. Guessing you just 'shut down' in social situations, out of anxiety, in ways that make you come across as haughty. You have no idea how friendly people can be. Yes, absolute strangers too.
