I dont understand what you mean by 5 rands to the Dollar, but if you look at the illustration i gave you you will see that rand has lost over 40% of its value in 2 years while the Naira has only lost about 12%

i mean if rand went up frm 6 to 11 rand against d dollar as a result of d crisis, why shld our naira go frm 160 to 200 naira against d dollar?

At the beginning of this 2013 the rand was $1 = 6 rand today it is $1= 11.6

The rand in 2 years lost over 40% to the dollar, that is why it is one of the Fragile 5 currencies.

with all the devaluation the Naira has only lost 12% of its value to the Dollar

remember, rand increased by 5rand against dollar while our naira increased almost 40(160+40) naira. How do u explain this?

barcanista:
How shallow can you go? Buhari is illiterate yet he was trained in Military Schools home and Abroad. Buhari is too illiterate yet he reduced inflation rate from 27% to 5% within 20 months. He was pragmatic with sound economic policy, yet he had no degree. Your Havard trained Iwaela with PHD and the equally PHD holding President are dummies when placed side-by-side with Muhammadu Buhari.

PS: Brazillian immediate Past President Da Silva had NO tertiary education but he lifted so many poor Brazillians to middle class through his economic policies. Something the incumbent couldn't sustain despite her bogus certificates.

Lula Da Silva is my president of this time. He created 80 million jobs in 8 year, i.e 1:8 (8 million jobs in one year).

ducii:
Don't make it a Jonathan thing. it is a problem with most emerging economies. Nigeria has even done a better job in managing our currency.

If you look at some country's currency you will marvel

that's how most of u clueless guys give excuse for failure. No wonder gej told us that ' Nigerians dont panic. Terrorist attack happen everywhere. Maybe it is our turn.' so becos other emerging economies are facing similar crisis we shld also face it. just listen to urself.

ZKOSOSO:
What a shame!!
From VP to town crier!!
Very soon to jailbird come June 2015!!
Stubborn goat! Safe trip to oblivion, ameachi!

KwoiZabo:

help me ask them ooooo....

S’East APC congratulates Gov. Amaechi on emerging Buhari’s presidential campaign directorBy Lucia Edafioka on December 19, 2014 @ 10:51 am@todayngr The South East chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has congratulated Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers state on his appointment as the party’s presidential campaign director for the 2015 election. This was contained in a statement by Mr Osita Okechukwu, Spokesman South East APC.

It reads: South East All Progressives Congress (APC) congratulates Governor Chibuike Amechi for his appointment in the arduous task of leading our great party to victory in the 14 February, 2015 presidential election. Good luck Governor Amechi. It is our candid view that Governor Amaechi will surely lead our great party to victory, given his sterling qualities as man of courage, focused and fearless fighter. We cannot forget in a hurry how he defeated the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors in the historic Nigeria Governors Forum’s election, an election that exposed the perfidy of President Goodluck Jonathan regime. We recall that the day Governor Amaechi joined forces with the progressives, he automatically and patriotically redefined Nigeria’s political landscape, cancelled out North-South divide; while today Governor Ibrahim Shema of Katsina State is battling his Katsina brother, Amaechi is battling his Bayelsa brother.

This is healthy for our fledgling democracy. Our confidence is boosted more by the singular fact that assuming Governor Amechi cannot attract more votes for the APC; having bedded before and armed with the machinations of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), he knows their tricks and has the political will to stem the jumbo millions of votes usually manufactured for the party in the South East and South South. We therefore thank Chief John Odigie-Oyegun led National Executive Committee for appointing Governor Amechi, to head the APC Presidential Campaign.

The South East APC must state unequivocally that Chief Oyegun has done Nigeria proud by not only Governor Amaechi’s appointment, but by organizing a transparent, free and fair presidential primary, a primary election which has become the benchmark for future presidential or even council primaries. A presidential primary that defied money politics by producing General Muhammadu Buhari, a man of modest means, the peoples general, and capping it with an excellent academic, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, as vice presidential candidate.

In sum, it can be said that APC is getting it right in all departments, a sine qua-non for victory at the polls. Especially when we remember that some pundits had boasted that our great party will not be registered and on 31st July, 2013, we got registered, Dr Doyin Okupe, presidential adviser proclaimed he should be called a bastard if APC survives for one year, now we are more than a year old and government waiting in the wings for regime change. As if it their bag of propaganda tricks is inexhaustible the prophets of doom predicted that our great party will crash during the election of its national executive committee, we crossed that hurdle and they said the center cannot hold during the presidential primaries and by God’s grace it became a beacon of hope.

Lamido Backs Buhari For Preaching Against Politics Of Religion
Muh'd Zangina
— Dec 19, 2014 | 1 Comment
Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State yesterday threw his weight behind the recent statement credited to All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate General Muhammad Buhari condemning politics of religion in Nigeria.

Lamido stated that, promoting the parochial sentiment of religious politics is unethical and dangerous to the existence of Nigeria as a single entity.

The governor stated this while speaking to newsmen shortly after a stakeholders meeting of the state chapter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

He said in some years back many unscrupulous and selfish persons in Nigeria had tried to divide the country along ethnic and religious line in a desperate move to pursue their agenda, but God saved the country.

Lamido maintained that, those who use religious sentiment to coarse, intimidate, and force people to accept their political agenda would continue to fail and be exposed to shame as every good Nigerian has understood them.

According to Lamido the Hausa word “Isgilanci” which means a high level of immoral and total disgrace, used by General Buhari in condemning the advocates of religious politics is a good message and a welcome development in the nation’s politics.

duck!

The thought they would rule us for 50yrs. We've unanimously said NO to them.

dont mind those old hacks. they should prepare to go to prison after buhari emerge next year.

dre11:
The two will work together since they are of like minds with integrity.


Although he isn't popular, but still a better choice

being a running mate to a presidential candiddate of the biggest opposition party in africa has made him a popular man already .

jamace:
Osibanjo is a big minus already for APC , so why waste bullets on a dead enemy.

sms!

donphilopus:
PDPians are presently bereft of propagandas against Osinbajo. They were already set to finish Tinubu, Fashola, Amaechi or Oshiomole, but they were really disappointed!

we beat them to it; we literally took the game to them. pdp will forever remember Tinubu as the only individual that rattled them and caused 'political tectonism' in their fold after 16 years of their un-challenged might.

jamace:
Buhari was helpless in the selection of his VP. Left to Buhari, Osibanjo is a big no. And herein lies the beginning of the end of APC.

it is none of ur business who buhari picks. the rule says ; if you dont get what you like, you end up liking what you got.


all we know now is that buhari picked osinbajo as his running mate, and not his party.

donphilopus:
I'm just too happy over the emergence of Osinbajo. It's high time we said NO to a clueless, inactive and ceremonial VP whose official duty is performed by a semi-literate called 'First Lady'.

i'm happy too. You know God has a way of doing things- those ways that are are beyond our knowledge. no one saw osinbajo coming, but here we're with him. He's so clean that the pdp has nothing bad to tag on him. I was for amaechi, but his emergence is coming to me as the right choice already.

all hail the president-in-waiting!

RACE TO 2015: Why I chose Prof. Osinbajo as my running mate – Buhari RACE TO 2015: Why I chose Prof. Osinbajo as my running mate – BuhariBy TODAY on December 18, 2014 @ 1:06 am@todayngr TweetPin It The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), on Wednesday said his running mate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, emerged through a meticulous process. According to him, the major reason he chose Osinbajo was becasue of his ‘unimpeccable integrity,’ adding that together with him, they’ll rescue Nigeria. Buhari stated this while presenting Osinbajo to Nigerians at the National Secretariat of the party in Abuja. He added that his running mate is a “friend of the masses.’’ “The challenging process of rescuing our country and changing Nigeria for good has commenced. One of the first decisions that I have to make is the choice of the vice-presidential candidate and my running mate. “The method employed in this choice was quite meticulous but yet rigorous. It involved the establishment of objective criteria, broad consultations with party leaders and a few opinion leaders outside the party and interactions with a number of nominees,” Buhari said. “To assist me in this great task of securing Nigeria’s future, I have chosen a man of unimpeachable integrity, an excellent professional, a man of faith, a devoted family man and a role model to our fellow countrymen and women. He is a professor of law and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria. “An alumnus of the University of Lagos and the London School of Economics. He is a prodigious author who has to his credit several books on civil procedure in Nigerian superior courts. “The vice-presidential candidate is a friend of the less privileged, compassionate and zealous in service. A man of uncommon humility, a loyal, dependable and selfless patriot. “Ladies and Gentlemen, I present Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, who by the grace of God and the vote of Nigerians will be the next Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” Buhari added. Buhari also thanked Nigerians for their goodwill messages since he emerged the party’s presidential candidate, saying, “I wish to thank all Nigerians and friends of Nigeria who have continued to send messages of goodwill and congratulations to me and the party since my election as the presidential flag bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC). “The huge outpouring of support and acceptance has been a great encouragement to me and hardened my resolve to lead the process of rebuilding a New Nigeria and securing our future. “In my acceptance speech, I pledged to run an efficient government, fight corruption and indiscipline in our national life. I promised to end the current regime of fear and uncertainty in our country and place priority on national security. “I also pledged to rebuild our battered economy and reduce poverty by deliberate policies to create jobs.

Femi Fani-Kayode: The rantings of a Tabula Rasa! Kayode Fakuyi PoliticsDecember 2014

I have read several of the many sponsored yet cryptic articles of Mr Femi Fani-Kayode; a former minister turned President Jonathan apologist. If I am cultured to be an abusive dude, I would borrow the Yoruba slut name of “elenunjawaya” to describe him for the rest of this article. But to lend him courtesy, one would simply refer to him as FFK. Making responses to individuals who have already been disgraced out of public service before now, in itself, is metaphorical to visiting a toilet. But the lessons from the words of Joseph Goebbels, the popular propagandist of Adolf Hitler cannot but force one’s fingers on these tiny tabs of the keyboard. “If a lie is repeated often,” the very terrific image maker of the world’s most notorious mass massacre initiator (just as much as other world power brokers though) believes, “would become truth!” FFK is shouting everywhere now that it is only President Jonathan that can rule this country. That any other person contesting must go the blazes. He shamelessly forgets, as one reader reminded us that “a president who does not understand the meaning of “class” or “honesty” and who breaks his own word consistently” cannot continue to stir the ship of our noble country. The same FFK also said “a president who has abdicated his responsibilities, destroyed his own political party, divided his own country…abandoned his own people, brought ridicule to his own faith…and break his solemn oath to protect and defend the Nigerian people” should be removed. All of a sudden, FFK was summoned to Abuja and won over. Recall that he has a money laundering case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) which has been on prosecution for long now. His recent homophobic shouts and lies may not be unconnected to his recent case with EFCC on November 17th, 2014 where the trial judge proclaimed he has a case to answer: “The prosecution has made a prima facie case on count 25 and 26 and as a result, the accused should appear before the court and open his defence on the mentioned counts,” -(Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia) Despite being discharged and acquitted on other count charges which were initially 40, FFK needs to blow the piper loud again so that the axe will be taken away from him. One would then not be surprised when few days after the judgement, FFK is already throwing banters and attacks all around. A political commentator, Mr Segun Fadipe recently made this remark on the ongoing campaign of calumny by FFK against GMB: “Femi Fani-Kayode is from the lineage of the “Yoruba political cabal” of the First Republic! His father, who was deputy to the late Samuel Ladoke Akintola, belonged to the tiny Yoruba clique, which the late Ahmadu Bello’s Northern Peoples Congress used to destabilise Yoruba land and destroy Yoruba unity in the First Republic. The damage this “cabal” did to Yoruba psyche – imprisonment of the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo – is still reverberating till date and many have yet to forgive Chief Remi Fani-Kayode (aka “Fani Power”), father to Femi Fani-Kayode. “Nipa eso won la o ti mo won” (By their fruits, we shall know them!). “ [font]Today, (FFK) is behaving in the same manner! Generations of ostriches don’t change.[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] Can’t discerning minds diagnose FFK in the last 3 years? Maybe you are not aware of how he was going cap in hands from one Fayemi to Fashola begging for money and others when he claimed to have decamped to the APC. The APC leaders knew he was a mole being planted in their midst by PDP! When he was not given audience, he went back, like a dog, to his vomit! If he is a politician, he should go and contest for just State House of Assembly membership in Ile-Ife. This is a politician that has no grassroots contacts at all”. The above remark should be a concern to FFK. In a recent rant, FFK enthused: “If the truth must be told, the only thing that is worse than Boko Haram are those in the Nigeria political class that secretly support and covertly assist them. A Buhari presidency would be a danger to the christian community and clear evidence of the final victory and triumph of Boko Haram and the Jihadists over the Nigeria state. It would also represent the end of Nigeria as one nation” The intellectual fever in FFK’s words are not circumstantial, it is the consciously adopted disease of the retrogressive cabinet of FFK’s sponsor. Former President Olusegun Obasanjo as well noted recently that the reason Boko Haram escalated to this point is that President Jonathan did not understand the scourge by labelling it religious. This is not untrue. But Obasanjo failed to add that it is a deliberate act by the presidency. Two reasons are suggested for this. GEJ won the last election largely on ethnic and religious sentiments. While ruling on, he is comfortable to ride on the chauvinism. And this leads to the second reason: there are media reports that GEJ gains in the arms economy involved in the Boko Haram war. This possibly accounts for why FG trade illegally as shown in the FG/Oritsejafo armsgate uncovered in South Africa. Another annoying rant of FFK is that Buhari has soft spot for Boko Haram. This is so ridiculous. GMB himself has described Boko Haram members as “Godless Murderers” and “Kidnappers” who should be made to face the full wrath of law. This is a man who was also a victim of bomb attack of the same sect this year, sustaining casualties in his entourage. Buhari himself escaped in whiskers! “Elenunjawayas” like FFK could afford to mess around with their buccal cavity without caution. And global investigators have revealed politicians sponsoring Boko Haram this year. Buhari’s name was obviously missing. It is a PDP leader in the Northeast that was mentioned. And the media report that GEJ has delegated a legion of soldiers to escort the same man all around the country is yet undenied.FFK is obviously blind to all this. Wetin man go chop, no allow am talk sense again! FFK’s reference to Thisday Newspaper’s story headlined: ‘’The military offensive against Boko Haram is anti-North – General Muhammadu Buhari’ on the 3rd of June, 2013 is related to the issues raised by GMB on the State of Emergency President Jonathan declared in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states in north-eastern Nigeria on the 14th of May, 2013. Though, the headline is apparently misleading, the issue GMB raised bothers on the desirability of SOE when there were other available and better options to arrest the rising insurgency in Nigeria. [/b]Lo and Behold, SOE has been effective in those states for 19 months, can FFK and his sponsors tell Nigerians that SOE has actually met target in those troubled states? The answer is NO and Nigerians are aware. For FFK to insinuate that GMB has soft spot for terrorists by bringing to the fore the newspaper article is being clever by half. [/b]In fact, GMB as head of state rooted out the Maitatsine sect which started during the President Shehu Shagari era. Maitatsine is a transfiguration of Boko Haram. He used his powers to end the insurgency. He didn’t blame the insurgency on the comments or words of some leaders. GMB displayed exemplary leadership.[/b] FFK wrote, “An individual once said, only last year, that ‘’an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the North’’; in 2001, that he wanted to ‘’spread Sharia throughout the federation’’; that “Muslims should only vote for Muslims’’; that ‘’why should Christians be concerned when Muslims cut off their limbs under Sharia”; and that ‘’after all the limbs that are being cut off are Muslim ones and not Christians; so why should the Christians bother about it?’’ These quotes linked to GMB by FFK are still the regular circulated lies of FFK & co. They are obvious lies. The actual version of these misquoted statements are available in the public domain if FFK is not such a lazy and mischievous soul. GMB himself have had opportunities to put the record straight as regards those misquoted statements. All in all, it is clear FFK wants Nigerians to vote against GMB because of those misquoted statements himself and his sponsors originated and sponsored while very comfortable with a President whose actions and inactions have caused the nation the estimated killings of over 100,000 Nigerians (a conservative figure, though) since the onset of the Boko Haram crises without an end in sight. FFK, Haba! GMB is not the Commander-in-Chief of Armed Forces of Federal Republic of Nigeria, the Commander-in-Chief of Armed Forces should take responsibility. The continued campaign of calumny against GMB by FFK & co can only further expose the weaknesses of President Jonathan. Is GMB responsible for the paltry portion of appropriated and approved budget that the Nigerian Army and Force Headquarters receive yearly? Why should a FFK direct the obvious incompetence of his sponsor(s) to GMB? Is FFK too confuse to know that the buck stops on the table of Mr President? The credibility of GMB to govern Nigeria is unquestionable, his competence is not doubtful and his integrity is untainted. FFK lacks the credibility to direct questions to GMB. Those questions are obviously ridiculous. Those questions should be thrown into the bin of infamy by Nigerians. [font]GMB has issued more press statements to condemn insurgency in Nigeria than all former presidents (civilian and military) combined.[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] And his stand on insurgency is clear as shown by the way he dealt with the Maitatsine sect during his headship of Nigeria. [/b]Mr President should do his jobs or be “removed” as FFK once advised. The intervention of statesmen like GMB is restricted to condemning insurgency and giving moral support to Armed Forces which was exactly what he did at the Eagle Square, Abuja on 15th of October, 2014 when he said, “I would like us to place on record our appreciation for the efforts of our Armed Forces under the new leadership and police in confronting these challenges. This is an occasion to celebrate and appreciate their efforts”. One has to conclude this article by telling Nigerians to ignore men who hate truth, honesty, honour and clarity of purpose like FFK. The survival of the piper rest on how much tunes he can dole out to the delight of his sponsor. The whole country has learnt much that Boko Haram is not religious nor tribal. It is a political question of terrorism largely gingered by the extent of the backwardness of a society. The rate of poverty and unemployment. There are both short and long answers to insurgency like Boko Haram. The short is to halt state of emergency and collaborate with the civilians to resist them. The current Civilian JTF has shown that, with the collaboration of the Governor Kassim Shetimma-led state government. State of Emergency only bring in genocides like the Baga massacre and many more which divide and add more to people’s agony. Then real dialogue and negotiation should be considered. The long approach is to develop the country and eradicate poverty, unemployment, and some other ailments that now bedevil our country. The case that our economy is growing (as we were told) and austerity is announced about two months later is that of failed governance. Our people are gnashing their teeth. If that is the same conditions that tabula rasas like Femi Fani-Kayode wants us to continue to dance, Nigerians please tell him the people yet differ. FFK should dance along with his payers to the market of dishonour and infamy all alone! For GMB, may your birthday bring forth more fulfilling years in good health.
