Shut up there. How long will you continue supporting evil? Is this the first time the government you so much support will say something and it ends up being false?

I'm not wicked not to know the plight of Nigerians but it's rather too early to give scorecard on this new administration

God bless your wisdom sir.

Just because Obidents don't have our ways does not mean we should be wishing the nation evil.

Honestly, Asiwaju has surpassed the expectations of many obedients and Christians that campaigned against him with his appointments, especially Chief of Defence Staff, a Christian from Kaduna South.

Also, he has been cheaply achieving everything we expected from Obi, things that Obi may even find difficult. Very sure North would have reacted to the appointment of Chief of Defence Staff if it's Obi, they may turn it to religion riot.

Also Obi may not be able to secure the Senate President for the South, which Asiwaju did successfully.

No harm in Obi challenging Asiwaju in the court of law, however any side it falls, the most important is to move the nation forward.

Obedients should please stop wishing the nation evil, election is rigged every where all over the world. The most important is performance.

All Asiwaju programmes shall be successful and Nigeria shall be great again in the name of Jesus Christ

God Bless Asiwaju
God Bless Obedients ( U guys still have 2027)
God Bless Nigerians
God Bless Nigeria
abeg list the achievements. Some of us never see am. Instead, we are seeing that our purchasing power has reduced. Is that one of the achievements?

Politics › Re: Nigeria’s Economy Grows By 2.51% In Q2, Service Sector Leads Growth By 4.42% by cucumbar: 10:07pm On Aug 25, 2023
FreeStuffsNG:
Nigeria’s economy grows by 2.51% in Q2
Service sector leads growth by 4.42%

By Bunmi Bailey
Aug 25, 2023

Nigeria’s economy grew at a faster pace in the second quarter of this year, compared to the previous quarter, official data released on Friday show.

Africa’s biggest economy saw its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grow by 2.51 percent (year-on-year) in real terms in Q2 2023, from 2.31 percent in Q1 2023 and 3.54 percent in the same period last year, according to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

“This growth rate is lower than the 3.54 percent recorded in the second quarter of 2022 and may be attributed to the challenging economic conditions being experienced,” it said.

It said the performance of the GDP in the second quarter of 2023 was driven mainly by the Services sector, which recorded a growth of 4.42 percent and contributed 58.42 percent to the aggregate GDP.

The agriculture sector grew by 1.50 percent, an improvement from the growth of 1.20 percent recorded in the second quarter of 2022. The growth of the industry sector was -1.94 percent relative to -2.30% recorded in the second quarter of 2022.


In terms of share to the GDP, agriculture, and the industry sectors contributed less to the aggregate GDP in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022.

When I predicted about this Tinubu in 2021 or 22 i cant even remember, and some other critical world matters, some empty scum came there to challenge me thinking I'm one of the regular useless fake men of God. Who come around and blab nonsense with their empty skulls.

jumper524:
Nasir elrufai my most loved and admired norther elite.
I'll miss you not being a minister.
I know Asiwaju insisted on you being a minister but you weren't ready for another circle of political naivety with some bitter fellas who has refused to move on.
You were never interested in the nomination until president Tinubu insisted on it, but then again, you showed you put Nigeria first and respected the president even more when you urged him not to go into any political battle for your sake.
Media houses have trades your name with negativity but no proof till date.
They hate you cos you did the right thing, they envy you cos you still progress.
You'll remain a rare gem amongst men whether in or out of service.
Till date no one could match you developmental records in the FCT.
You did what the military govt couldn't do in lagos in Abuja.
You ended decades of religious and community killings in kaduna.
But then it's you they hate, your the short evil man they can never proof to be evil.
Allah would continue to elevate you till your old age.

To the ignorant mumus quoting me, let me remind you that communal killings is different from banditry and terrorism.
Long before banditry and terrorism came to kaduna, there was always these communal clash among its indegenes especially on religion.
It all came to an end under elrufai.
Infact it only happened once under elrufai which was contained at the early stages.
As for banditry and terrorism in southern kaduna, a lot of ignoramus on this forum should know that prior to El-rufai, Southern kaduna has always been the rural part of kaduna and its no surprise its a sweet spot for terrorist cos of the forest.
If your looking for who to blame for Southern kaduna Insecurity, blame Buhari and CAN of kaduna who opposed elrufai suggestion of bringing in mechinaries to deal with bandits in kaduna since Buhari appears too weak to curb them.
Hypocrite.
Upon say this man come out and confess say he paid terrorists he employed to hands off, you still dey claim innocence on his behalf. Looks like you are not normal o .

He wasn’t selected as a minister because he is the terrorist in chief of northern nigeria and Sudan and Niger and chad.

God will punish him and his supporters/ defenders like you soon.

amoreobansu:
Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has sparked reactions with a new photo confirming his current location.

This comes barely a week after the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain reportedly withdrew his ministerial appointment, named a placement and travelled out of the country.

Recall that El-Rufai’s ministerial confirmation was suspended following a security report by the Department of State Security (DSS) and the National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu.

Naija News reports that the former Governor took to his social media page to share a new photo and revealed his location.

However, former presidential aide, Bashir Ahmad, took to his Twitter page to share the photo, and it generated mixed reactions from Nigerians.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Why Argentina Devalued Its Currency, Jacked Up Interest Rates To 118% by cucumbar: 9:06am On Aug 15, 2023
grandstar:
The issue has never been about those abusing the subsidy. The issue is the subsidy itself.

As at May 28 this year, a litre of crude oil used to process it into petrol cost 47cents per litre. Multiply that the unrealistic exchange rate at the time of 440 to a dollar and that brings the price to N208 per litre of crude oil. The petrol price then was 195 per litre

That means it was cheaper to buy petrol in Nigeria than the crude oil it is made from. It was even the unrealistic rate of 440 used. If the more realistic 770 rate is used, the figure will be more frightening. We are yet to add refining cost and all minor costs? The subsidy would have been at least 250 per litre. Multiply that by 50m litres a day [b](this is very conservative) [/b]and you have 12.5bn daily. Multiply that by 365 and you have around 4.65bn in a year. The government estimated that the fuel subsidy would cost about $10bn this year alone. This is about 2.2% of GDP.

Already, debt servicing was to consume 96% of government revenue this year. Where then is the more to subsidize petrol? The money no longer exists. The government is not borrowing for an investment that would yield interest to pay off the loan but something that would only add on to the country's unsustainable debt burden.

Is the subsidy removal biting my butt? Yes. I have only bought petrol once since the subsidy was removed. Do I support the removal? Yes. It was the right thing to do.

Even if the sub
sidy would cost the government nothing, it caused a lot of damage. It discouraged investment in the refining of crude oil. No one would build a refinery in a country where the government subsidizes the price of main products. Subsidy basically means selling it below the market price. Dangote and Bua could proceed because they could use their very profitable cement businesses as collateral.

Had the subsidy been done away with in the 1990s, by now, the country would be refining at least 2million barrels of crude oil daily. It would have a ripple effect on the oil industry and the economy. Nigeria would definitely be the no.1 petrochemical giant in Africa, same with fertilizer, second largest gas exporter in Africa, Africa's largest oil logistic hub and so on. The subsidy cost the country a lot of things. I won't be surprised if GDP would not be at least 3 times what it is today.
pally, it’s about the abuse…not the subsidy itself.
First of all, they haven’t told us how much fuel we consume or they have been subsidizing. That means certain persons have been inflating the figures at will.

Why have they been calling subsidy a scam?

They talk about smugglers taking subsidized fuel to sell outside Nigeria. Are these smugglers ghosts?

Why must you throwaway the baby with the bath water? Why not go after persons abusing the subsidy ?
Please be truthful for once.
