This is the level of self-delusion that has made them lose control of the economy.

Jay542:
Buhari must be under 1 mad pressure now .

I doubt that.

AZeD1:
She never said what was in the first screen, the first screen says "in the 2015 budget"

FYI information, she didn't prepare the 2015 budget


In the 2015 budget prepared by someone else....


I highly suggest you guys spend more time reading that fault finding.

And this is Supposed to be an excuse for a so-called minister of finance who is supposed to be abreast of relevant numbers? A woman who has formed the habit of making some unforgivable arithmetical errors, not once or twice.
Nobody is looking for fault here. We are just trying to see reasons why the economy is failing. And given the quality of the people in charge like adeosun, it is not hard to see why.

If this was china, the old wife who most likely benefited from the incredible loot would have being hanged, and their entire generation sent on a long exile and banned from chinese politics forever.
While india and china were gradually developing to a global power status through the 70s and 80s, abacha was busy stashing raw billions of dollars in swiss banks.

dragonking3:
Sharrap there..You want militants to continue in nigerdelta but you don't want them in Ibo land. As you make your bed so you lie on it

Show me where I want militants to continue in the ND.

Science and technology and yoruba is water and oil. They talk too much and lack that inbuilt raw technical ability present in races like the igbos , germans, asians or even the jews.
Yorubas are best fitted to the humanities such as law and co where they can talk themselves to stupor. Even their engineering professors are most of the time very good theorists with a lot of paper certifications.

Yeye man playing the game of ''being there before you, and did that''.
Which man fit boast say another man never enter him wife before am?

TonyeBarcanista:
But did you condemn attack in Ijawland? I can bet you hailed it... SMH.

Well It is a shame that misguided young people still believe in destroying communities and public/private utility. This is simply economic terrorism and a crime against the aborigines.

I don't support militancy. And I never will.

diva90:
Why should buhari resign? If PDP had been prudent and had genuine interest in the betterment of Nigeria's future, We will not be in as much mess as we are today because we would have had enough to cushion the effects of the problem that we are in right now. Imagine if these money hungry looters came back? Of course we will not know half of what we know today, thanks to buhari's ceaseless fight against corruption and they would have continued to rob nigeria blindly. All that money they were throwing away during elections, their plan was to come back and loot it back x5.... But God had other plans for our dear nation. I urge my fellow Nigerians to be patient. Things will get better. All of u expecting overnight transformation, that was not the change he promised.... Even PDP didn't change this country in 16years!

The value of the naira has dipped to a record low in 2 years. The Economy nosediving too to record abysmal lows in two years.
All economic and scientific indices point to worse situations for the Nigerian people in the coming years. So where exactly are you getting your optimism from? Are you an afonja? If you are, then I understand your school of thought. You probably believe buhari would be there forever.

.

These militants should stay away from igboland.
Your FG barely invests on infrastructure there and you want to come and destroy the little development we have.

Zukerberg can probably lay any of those ladies there if he wanted to regardless of their marital status. Most would dump their husbands for him without thinking twice even if all he wants is a side chick.
Money talks, bullshitt walks and never return.

Nigerian musician with an IQ of -6.
Look at him looking like a rebranded tout. Mr licker.

Lol.
College students and even high school nerds in america are designing long range missiles and sophisticated ''almighty formula'' hacking programmes on their own time and money. Something FG funded agencies in Nigeria cannot even do.
The gap between America and Nigeria is as far as the heaven is from the earth.

Larryfest:
Even in their movies all incoming international calls to them is by default a Nigerian prince trying to scam them...dem crazy seriously

Yes, because that is the image your yorubas brothers have projected to the world as Nigeria's.

See as Nigerians just dey deceive themselves without shame.
One even said Nigeria will one day displace america

whitebrown:
@ironheart
I really love the content of ur first line. That's the spirit. Nigeria will not be fixed overnight. By the way, I am not a supporter of buhari' government considering the hardship Nigerians are facing presently but let's keep making this seemingly little strides. If all these rail projects do is to facilitate the movement of goods across geographical locations, it's a good step. Nigerians are not looking for a miracle worker but seeking for progress that is tangible. Whatever little income we generate and the loots recovered from thieves(politicians), let it be put to use in a way we can all see and feel. We might have a journey on our hand, the road ahead might be very rough, but let Nigerians know and see that everyday they make sacrifices, their destination to economic freedom becomes closer. The length of our journey as a nation needs to be specific, our destination needs to be clearly marked, we should be able as a people to know how far we have gone and how further we still need to go. We should not be like passengers in an aircraft that seem to fly forever with no destination in sight except been told by the pilots that "we would soon be there" but never getting there and no sigh of descent.

You are deceiving yourself and you know it.
The first thing a govt that has a plan and wants to improve a lot of lives would do is how to make the states more productive thereby increasing generated wealth and prosperity.
A govt with a plan should be talking about decentralized economics and true federalism which soludo recently suggested too.
What you guys are doing in that country is going in endless cycles. Building one or two federal railways and a few roads would not change things that much. Most people would still be poor and Buhari would come and go and you would stop be hoping.

A government of dollar racketeering and propaganda.
When you have the likes of amaechi and audu ogbeh as minsters of critical sectors, then you know that govt is not serious.

SONofYORUBA:
Livable in Enugu where Fulanis are constantly killing people up and down?

Or Enugu that is 1/27th the size of Ibadan but not as developed?

I have been to Ibadan. It is a massive shitthole. It has one or two decent places, but still an overall shitthole with a massive array of corroded zinc.
Comparing Enugu to Ibadan is an insult. Go to skyscrapercity and check the aerial view of both cities and then come back here and make your apology.
I don't give a shitt about size. China is bigger than Nigeria and more developed. Singapore is smaller than Nigeria and more developed.
Size is irrelevant.

Aigbofa:
Going by your logic there's nothing in the south east that suggests it will be better than any other struggling landlocked African country.
Drug pushing, kidnapping and senseless crimes are not the type of tenacity needed to build a nation.

The SE is a tenacious , industrious terrain. It just requires a bit of above average governance to make it a success.
Unlike other parts of Nigeria, the people in the SE are already productive and ambitious.

OkoNDOoBo:
Shut up!!!! Enugu ko imugu ni.

That state that fulani. Has turn to slaughter slab.killing people every week and they have a governor mtcheww.

My friend willl you Go and Pack feaces in ogbete market.!!!!

That is a failure of your Nigerian state. A failure of your president. Afterall, it is not Enugu indigenes that carry about these slaughters.
Atleast , people are getting more alert to this anomaly and trying to fight back. Mass slaughters occur everywhere in the SW and nobody seem to really care.

dunkem21:
Now, change the title of the thread and we will be fine.

Nothing wrong with the title of the thread.
Igbo people should take advantage of the opportunity, add value to the raw nickel and get rich.

dunkem21:
Nickel is the way to go.. Have listened to a professional miner talk about the precious stone.

Same way with fruits and vegetables.


Where can we find "Mickel"

I heard there is a decent quantity in Enugu state and some parts of the north. That country is sitting on a lot of dollars.

Any smart individual with verifiable link to decent quantities of nickel has a chance of becoming a sharp multi-millionaire in dollars very very quickly.

Aside from the obvious joker above, nickel is a very serious mineral.
Along with cobalt, it accounts for over 80% of the materials used in the fabrication and design of the US military industrial complexes and many other defence industries in the developed world.
Nigeria is underdeveloped . And Would probably lose most of the value added products anyway just like crude oil.

JohnFrankling:
Its only on facebook and twitter you will see this rice, visit the market you won't see it

virtual rice.

Abagworo:
You are demented to link my sincerity with your nonsense. Coscharis is in Anambra State but his farm is not owned by Anambra Government. Obiano going there to negotiate putting his photo on rice bag is rubbish. You can as well put Dave Umahi's photo on rice produced in Ebonyi.

And how is this a problem.?
The main question is if rice is being produced in the SE for 9k. And the answer is yes.
I don't care who gets the glory.

You don't seem to understand the importance of the south west in Nigeria. Why do u think most Igbo's prefer to live and work here? Because of relative peace and our tolerance for other tribes which cannot be found in your region. Osun is infrastructurally better than Enugu and anambra despite its huge debts. SW will always lead

You are a deluded mofo. I bet just like 90% of your youthful Yoruba population, you are ignorant.
There is currently no SW state that is as livable as Enugu. That is a fact.
Igbos don't prefer to work in the SW- I know you guys like to extrapolate it to the rest of the SW to feel good. They work in lagos capitalizing on federal govt developmentally challenged policies that has made lagos a one eyed dwarf in the midst of blind midgets . No sensible Igbo citizen would go travelling to other Yoruba states like osun and co for economic purposes unless maybe to colonize them there.
And lagos is not livable. No sane human being would choose to live in lagos if he had a choice.
Btw, your peace is a mirage and not according to any credible scientific observation.

.....but the place he visited and gave a speech at is owned by a Yoruba....


ndo...

I hope you know this is not his first visit to Nigeria. He already visited akwaibom in 2013.
Ofcourse, that has not made akwaibom citizens any bit richer.

Keep deceiving yourselves. Your people will soon blame Zuckerberg for marginalizing the south east due to his preference to establish the WiFi in the south west. If Nigeria divides today, the east will suffer most cos of under development and lack of resources. Yoruba's lead, others follow

One would think you would lead the way for Yoruba national emergence so that we would all see what would become of lagos and so that Yoruba folks like you can fully enjoy your SW.
You know in your heart of hearts that your only saving grace is Nigeria and its dysfunctionality which you guys seem to revel in. Your people are not ambitious, tenacious or industrious enough to build a resilient nation on the back of your own sweat. Look at osun and co, that is exactly what lagos would become in a Yoruba controlled republic.
Your brothers in benin republic are already showing you your future.
