Don't defend rubbish.

Jonathan's government failed woefully by not saving when prices were high. This is not arguable!

Buhari's government is too slow to roll out its economic roadmap. This is not arguable!

Be objective and just love your country.

Could out present economic situation have been better managed by this government?

That is the pertinent question.

This is October 2015 and you are still blaming GEJ.

You need help.

neocortex:
Barclays can go and die, Nigeria is greater than all of them
and we can thrive alone
Sai Baba

I hope you are being sarcastic.

Jesusloveyou:
If they like, let they forecast it to zero, we already moving on

This is the kind of blind support that has held Nigeria back.

You are suffering and still praising the cause of your problems instead of crying out in protest.

Mogidi:
This means nothing to Buhari, instead of fighting poverty Buhari is busy fighting senators.

Very sad indeed our economy is nosediving and APC has no clue how to fix it.

Change my foot.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has forecast a four per cent growth rate for Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2015, as the country continues to contend with the challenge of declining income from the drop in crude oil prices.

The latest growth forecast by the fund is 2.25 percentage points lower than its last year’s projection for Nigeria.

The multilateral donor agency stated this in its 208-page World Economic Outlook (WEO) titled, “Adjusting to Lower Commodity Prices”, released on Wednesday.

In the 2015 budget, the federal government had initially forecast a real GDP growth rate of 6.4 per cent in 2015 but was forced to slash it to 5.5 per cent owing to declining oil prices.

Oil accounts for the bulk of government revenue in Nigeria, but global crude prices have more than halved over the past one year.

Continuing, the IMF stated that it anticipated growth in sub-Saharan Africa to also slow this year to 3.8 per cent, from five per cent in 2014.

Similarly, it forecast that growth in low-income developing countries would also fall to 4.8 per cent this year, more than one percentage point weaker than in 2014, before picking up to 5.8 per cent in 2016.

LONDON Oct 7 (Reuters) - Barclays will consult with its index users on whether Nigeria's sovereign debt should remain in its emerging market local currency government bond benchmark, the bank said on Wednesday.

Barclays listed the "eligibility of Nigeria for inclusion in the EM Local Currency Government Index" among the primary topics to be considered in its annual review process, according to a statement, though it give no additional details.

Africa's largest economy has taken a hammering from the steep drop in oil prices since mid-2014. An exclusion by Barclays could add to its list of financial headaches after rival index provider JP Morgan announced in September it would drop Nigeria from its index, citing a lack of liquidity and currency restrictions.

Barclays said the consultation would run through October and results will be published shortly afterwards. Nigeria is one of 19 countries which make up the index and the only one from Africa apart from South Africa. According to Barclays, Nigeria's bonds had a weighting of 1.2 percent on Oct. 6.

In April 2013 Barclays added approximately $16 billion of Nigerian debt to its emerging markets government bond index under president Goodluck Jonathan's administration.
However with the lack of economic policies, trailing the fall in oil prices, in this administration, Barclays may soon delist Nigeria just as JP Morgan did.
