Nigeria’s economy has been reduced to the price of rice and other food staples in the market that’s why even with this data staring us in the face, some people won’t still believe that the successive administrations since 2015 faced difficult times.

For e.g under GEJ, Nigerian crude oil in the int’l market sold for an average of $99/barrel over a 5year period yet, without any significant investment in infrastructural renewal, our FX reserves were heavily depleted. As if that wasn’t enough, that administration was taking foreign loans mostly to pay salaries and settle other recurrent expenditures.

Under PMB (now late), his administration for most parts of it saw crude oil being sold for average of $58.3/barrel over 8yrs. Not to mention that his administration faced COVID that many nations of the world are still reeling in its aftermath effect over 5yrs later.

Yet, that administration with all its faults and “poor” handling of the economy, embarked on a massive infrastructural drive like never before seen in our history for decades. Is it the massive investments in our armed forces? The completion of the Abuja-Kaduna & Itakpe-Ajaokuta-Warri SGR? Man successfully delivered the Lagos-Ibadan SGR from start to finish; the Second Niger Bridge from start to finish; new airport terminals in PH, Kano, Abuja, Lagos and so many other legacy projects too numerous to mention. Of course, many of these projects were realizable due to loans as well but because of the way the economy was handled, many Nigerians still viewed his administration as a disaster due to how prices of goods and services skyrocketed.

Same thing is playing out now under PBAT that while the numbers show the economy is stabilizing (just like Dr. NOI of the WTO affirmed with the advise for more effective measures to be put in place to cushion the effects of the administration’s policies), the effects of those +ve stats are yet to be felt by majority of Nigerians.

The current admin has been able to increase our FX reserves even amidst paying off some inherited loans/debts in billions of $$ but until the prices of food commodities, cost of transportation & cost of living in general is brought down to a reasonable level, all these stats will just be flying over the heads of Nigerians.

Lol, na so.

Bros, today I went with my kids to ikeja, we decided to stop by shopright as we had not been there for sometime. Omo, my jor dropped, have any of you guys been there lately? That place tells the tale of this economy under apc, buhari and how current oga at the top finally rubbed the icing on the cake ie the "finish him" move. That section we use to buy steak, sausages ie the butchery all gone, shelves that use to be full all empty. The bakery deserted, infact we left without buying anything, at the door the security lady asked if we did not help them buy something, security before that will harass you for receipt now pleading for us to buy, maybe so they will see salary.
We entered iPhone shop, 16 promax 3m+, the cheapest one was my daughters type ie 13 for 900k+.
Samsung store nko, phone of 3m, money we use to use to buy brand new car 10-12 years ago before this apc charlatans seized power.
Oga what hit me the most was the cherry motors stand, one small car had price of 45m, the other 75m! 10 years ago even to see a house worth 45m you had to go to lekki and na mansion, now you talk of a Chinese entry level car for 45m? At our level and age in life anywhere in the world if this country had its act together, we should be riding at least a S class Mercedes or BMW 7 series, not the one one is looking at Chinese car that we cannot afford.
My point is that this people talk of reserves being the highest, they talk of how well they are doing, but there reality is they have plunged we ordinary Nigerians into deep poverty, destroyed our purchasing power to the extent even if you earn 2m monthly you cannot buy the cheapest brand new car. Even if you earn 1m monthly you cannot afford to buy a 22 year old 2003 camry big daddy that sells for 7.5-8m. Is this not weaponised poverty on a mass scale?
Where is the trillions from subsidy removal, why has naira not appreciated to store up our purchasing power?
What baffles me is those on this forum that have not fed 3 square meals today, those who will never know the smell of driving a brand new car in their lifetimes are the ones singing the praise of the current misfits.

Ade3131:
I just calculated my tax now and must say I'm impressed by what I saw....but there's a challenge.

What do I get from the government in return for the tax I pay?

I dug my own borehole and lay my own water pipes. I paid for my own healthcare and education. There's no more subsidy according to the government themselves.

The electrification of my house now cost over 3x what it used to and with that, I needed to have backup from my own pocket.

Security is almost nonexistent in my village.

So what exactly am I paying tax for?

Just a reminder..... There's no country that has ever taxed it way to prosperity. Taxation is not the ideal way to raise money for innovative governments. Only slave drivers think taxation as a vehicle for prosperity.

NuCypher:
Why should anyone respect this man? It continues to baffle me why that should be the case. The same man whose trucks kill tens, if not hundreds, of people every year, and nothing ever gets done. Lives erased at the drop of hat; promising school children killed at bus stops. yet, his slow capitalist machine keeps moving. No accountability, no compensations, no justice. Then add on top the horrendous monopolistic moves he makes to ensure his competitors never see the light of day, and God knows the amount of scheming he does by cozying up to the people in power so that he can always stay one step above the law. Even here, you can see it. Already sucking up to the military president and not to the people of Nigeria, all in a bid to stay close to power and have it favour him. This man is the devil, despite his money. Sadly, Nigerians will never see that. In a country blinded by poverty, the one-eyed rich man is king!

Says who?
Anything govt document is a public document
Which country have you seen where they are so obsessed with leakages except on grounds of national security like Nigeria

AKWATGOLD1:
I supported this parties for private Nursery and primary schools with my full chest. The suspension or cancellation should be nationwide.

To make it resemble the father now

Even if the child looks like another man it will still be the husband's ancestors.
However spirits can even tinker with how the child will look

lawani:
According to research I did with the IFA oracle, irrespective of who impregnated the woman it is the ancestors of the husband that will determine who incarnates in the child. However if a man is maltreating the woman the spirit of the woman will not allow his line to incarnate even if he owns the biology.
