⚡Netanyahu told a top Knesset panel that "Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) would finance the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip after the war against Hamas."

“The first step in Gaza will be to defeat Hamas. After that, I believe that the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia will support the rehabilitation of the Strip,” Netanyahu said in closed-door testimony to the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.
From would finance(which is definite) to I believe (probability). Why can't you make up your mind on what he actually said.

I have. I thought you'd provide a link to the research work so I can also see how he came to that conclusion.

Here we go
So you think we should give him 8 years too right?
Anyways it should interest you this is Edun speaking about monetary matters and not Cardoso
You've still not answered who or what will foot the bill of the inflation not affecting dollarised naira
You brought in CBN Gov into the topic, not me. So I had to make that statement on comparing both governors.

On the issue of footing the inflation because we can't wish that away, their plan is to shore up the external reserve with what they have in mind and you know quiet well that the value of a currency is tied down to it's reserve which has a ripple effect on inflation. If you read well, he said it's work in progress. Let's be patient to see the final work done and know if it can work or not.

Whichever? Someone or something must be the hedge against inflation. What that will be is not clear.
I've not said Emefiele was good. But if the people who declared him bad can't make cogent workable policies but just making open ended statements, what's the difference between them and Emefiele
Emefiele had more than 8 years to work but couldn't even get a single policy right. Cardoso has been in office less than 6 months and you want to compare both. Really?

Driving laws are known world wide you say? Not in Nigeria where people don't obey road signs nor even use trafficators.

Apologize for wetin abeg? The man was recording what may or may not be cheating and naturally, she'd be upset. The man don tire and wants out but was not smart to get better evidence.

The man is probably a simpleman, the type peculiarly known as simps



No, his cheating wife doesn't make him a simp, the way he handled the whole saga was what gave him out. With the way he was talking in that video, there was no iota of authority in his voice. Such a man doesn't deserve to be called head of a family. See how his cheating wife was even chiding and disrespecting him as if she did nothing wrong. And the lover boy was there too, telling our dear simp to stop embarrassing him. OMG!
You think say na naija where fight for don burst by now. Oga, you go hear am if you try am. My concern is his evidence is too weak if na this video e wan use proof say the wife dey cheat.

Obi has NONE.

Besides,the 3 ex useless governors of Abia are making Otti's popularity easy because they did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING..
Orji Uzor Kalu did well on road construction in Aba. He worked on several roads using zerock construction company that he is a shareholder in. Ikpeazu and T.A slept all through there tenure.

And to think that same IKPEAZU was voted in twice by same people trying to convince us against re-electing H.E BABAJIDE SANWO OLU whose performance records in term of capital projects and human development projects hasn't been matched by the achievements of all the leaders they celebrate put together.

A food for thought for the lost sheep of the YORUBA kingdom.

First and foremost, the government needs to be sincere with themselves and their citizens

So many mistrust and it makes any policy succeed even if it's the right one

Isn't it obvious that the populace and the government are on different divides

I wonder how we want to succeed sha
I agree with you, trust has been eroded. Everyone views every govt. policy with suspicion. However, I'll wait and see if the instrument is security backed or not since they are still tinkering the executive order.

IbeOkehie:
Will government still remain in control of the value of the naira as part of this plan? Will there still be a CBN rate, IFEX rate and parallel market rate? Curious about your thinking.



Nobody is afraid of the dollar losing value. NAIRA is the currency being decimated by inflation. In short, let's say it bluntly - this is an attempt to seize dollars from Nigerians. Anyone that deposits dollars and takes that "instrument" or whatever, is NEVER going to get their dollars back.

This has happened in Argentina, Lebanon, Zimbabwe and Venezuela. It's the USUAL step taken by bankrupt governments to steal from their people. This guy is a former investment banker, right? How can he prescribe something like this? Alarm bells should be ringing, it's a very bad sign of things to come.



And I thought it was just crazy thoughts on my part. Glad to read some sense here.

Cheers.
I like your analysis though I'm yet to research on the mentioned countries.

It's obvious such questions may come up and govt has to give a security to secure depositors funds or explain how they plan to mitigate the Argentine experience.

Since they said it is work in progress, I want to see the final work so we'll know if they are serious or not.

Nice one from you.

Well goodluck to him and the people that will deposit there dollar. If my dollar wont yield interest while it's in the bank forget it.

I want to ask why is tinubu so focused on the exchange rate, does it mean he is not interested in local production?
I think local production is still on the table. Pls bear in mind I'm not holding brief for him but based on the thread. The machineries and spare parts will be imported and that is where fx comes in.

Wait do you genuinely believe in what u just said now. In this present Nigeria? It's only a foolish person that would listen to that. First of all let tinubu take the dollar he has stored in his house to the bank.
He said they are working on it. Let's see how they want to sell it to the public but if it works, it'd be a brilliant idea.

Bound to fail and the reason for that is simple to comprehend.

The private earners have virtual dollar/forex accounts they keep their forex. The private buyers of forex within Nigeria too have similar accounts. At exchange stage, they communicate through channels CBN don't have control over. Channels like Whatsapp, Telegram and co.

This approach is dead on arrival.
You didn't read it properly.

What he sai is lets says you have $10k cash, you pay that into your account and get an instrument of $10k. This way, you do not need to worry that inflation will erode the value of the 10k since it's an dollar instrument not naira. Anytime you want your $10k, you will get it back.

I think it's anbrillant order as most people fear is inflation eroding the value of the dollars.

I watched the video the young girl is right to a great extent but the man who is asking the girl questions should shut up

Our roads are terrible and traveling by air is almost becoming extremely difficult due to the unbelievable amount that the airliners want us to cough out, can you imagine paying 300k to 600k for round trip journey that’s insane

Work’s minister saw shege when he travelled through Abuja Lokoja to Benin City ended up spending 14 solid hours in spite of having security

As if that’s not enough the wicked and heartless MD of NNPCLD or whatever ever the name is and reappointment by Tinubu said recently that the local refinning of crude does not mean reductions in fuel prices, what’s is the benefit of refining fuel then in Nigeria

It will never be well with these enemies of Nigeria
Why would you tell the guy asking her questions to shut up. Agreed some of her assertions are correct but to claim that you can't get a degree in Nigeria without sleeping with a lecturer is the height of foolishness.

The hasty generalisation was uncalled for and that was why she couldn't answer that guy when he asked if everyone with her type of financial background that graduated slept with lecturers
