Misleading information
I agree.

Once you read the story, you realise the military and local support withstood and overcame the insurgents with the strategic use of air support.
Politics › Re: Boko Haram Attacks Damboa In Borno. Scores Feared Dead by Commentor: 6:04am On Mar 05, 2020
Foolish headline which proves the press are actually in support of Boko Haram.

The military repelled the attack with great support from the airforce yet the headline was made to appear as if Boko Haram succeeded.

Shameless journalism.

What of the cars and presidential fleet your master General Buhari got from Goodluck Jonathan? Give the man a break, he just assumed office and most importantly during Dickson tenure no Commissioner or high Government Official had cars. so what you're seeing playing out is policy shift.

I have nat Geo wild and a phone so no need I can learn that at home.

University education system is outdated and should be scrapped. There is a worldwide debate on this issue.

It's called tertiary education meaning not necessary

Primary school is the basic education. that's why it's called primary.

Imagine if I did boy boy for one business man by now Dem for don settle me better money and I use it to start my life.

Schools should be like that after paying school fees during graduation every student should be paid so they can start life
Tertiary learning is usually between 3 and 7 years.

So many people make more than decent living after this.

No guarantees anywhere.

The only work I had stopped with the hope when some credible bosses heard abt it, they will act to reinstate me asap, little did I know no one is indispensable.

Do you know that this is nothing to celebrate here, and infact that this indicts this Govt??

Clue: In 2014, Nigeria became the largest economy in Africa and valued at $509.9bn whilst South Africa was $370.3bn.

Today, Nigerian economy has according to your report in the OP declined to $472/402bn i.e a decline of about $38bn( it would even be more if you take into account inflation rate between then and now).

The only reason SA overtook us was that our growth since then has been very sluggish with us entering into a recession(successive "negative" growth). The reason why you just overtook SA again is that they just entered their 2nd recession within the period.

In real terms, none of the countries grew.

So quit that Buhari worship. On the economy, as with almost everything else, he has failed.
From Bloomberg in 2014:

The revision may boost the size of the economy by as much as 60 percent to between $384 billion and $424 billion, according to London-based Renaissance Capital Ltd., lifting Nigeria ahead of South Africa in the World Bank’s global rankings.

Nigeria’s economic growth beat forecasts in the fourth quarter, helping its economy to expand the most in four years in 2019 as oil output increased and the central bank took steps to boost credit growth. GDP in the West African country stood at $476 billion or $402 billion, depending on the rate used.

By Prinesha Naidoo

South Africa slumped to its second recession in two years

Nigeria, South Africa make up half of sub-Saharan Africa’s GDP

Sign up to our Next Africa newsletter and follow Bloomberg Africa on Twitter

As if a recession wasn’t enough bad news for South Africa, it’s now confirmed as the continent’s second-largest economy.


The answer to the question of whether South Africa or Nigeria, the two countries that account for almost half of sub-Saharan Africa’s gross domestic product, is the biggest economy on the continent has long depended on which exchange rate you use for the West African nation. But now both the official naira rate of 306 per dollar and the weaker market exchange rate of around 360 that almost all investors use put Nigeria tops.

Number One
Nigeria’s economic growth beat forecasts in the fourth quarter, helping its economy to expand the most in four years in 2019 as oil output increased and the central bank took steps to boost credit growth. GDP in the West African country stood at $476 billion or $402 billion, depending on the rate used.

South Africa’s economy went the opposite direction.


It slumped into a second recession in consecutive years, contracting more than projected in the fourth quarter as power cuts weighed on output and business confidence. For the full year, expansion was 0.2%, the least since the global financial crisis, and even less than the central bank and government estimated. Based on a average rand-dollar exchange rate of 14.43 for the year, GDP was $352 billion.

Projections show Nigeria’s economy will continue to grow faster. While the International Monetary Fund cut its forecast for Nigeria’s 2020 growth to 2% from 2.5% last month due to lower oil prices, South Africa’s GDP is forecast to expand only 0.8%.
