This Golan007 or what ever your name is i swear you no get sense at all, them no born you well na the type of you wey dey suppose tie rope with stone and put into ocean to die since you bend on supporting evil and looting of this motherfuckers leaders in Nigeria.... Shame on you!

Shatap.

Na you come get sense abi?

eagleu:
When you borrow money to chop, share amongst your friends, and maintain your current unreasonable level of life style, without any production of goods and services, then you are robbing your future generations.

Since Buhari is so inept at everything, except sharing government money to his friends and family, he is not the one to optimize any loan we take out at this time.

Most of you simply speak from sentiments and not actuality.

gimakon:
My brother, check yourself. You really need to see a doctor. Borrowing and nothing to show is a good idea.... To you abi?

What do you mean nothing to show?

Where did you stop your education?

Temptee101:
Choi...

You must come from Antarctica.

Can't believe a citizen of this country can alter such insane words whether zombie or non-zombie.

Unlike you, I don't indulge in irrelevant cliches and platitudes.

Borrowing is NOT a crime and it is a time trusted economic mechanism.

Many of you have simply been programmed to accept jejune arguments with no independent thought to the true implication.

When you detach yourself from all the sentiments and bias you would be able to see things clearly.

Yankee101:
Alot of the Lebanese live in kano

It means the case in kano has exploded

And perhaps they spread it.

Greatview:
So you a actually support this continuous borrowing that has plagued this government. The other countries you talked about, how many are borrowing at this rate. If you know small economics you will realize if nothing is done to stop this Naija is in trouble.

I support borrowing, yes.

Why do several Nigerians think it is dishonorable to borrow a mere 3.5 Billion dollars yet think USA borrowing 4 trillion dollars makes sense?

You are claiming to understand economics yet you cannot see that a country of 180 million people should actually be more productive than it is.

Na wa.

Urchman200:
other countries are borrowing to do what, pay salaries or share as palliative against Corona?I the incoming government u expect to pay the loan will not like to borrow?

Stop beating around the bush.

All economies are hemorrhaging at present.

All economies are borrowing or reaching deep into resources they'd rather have avoided.

Nigeria is where it is today because of you and me.

Improve your productivity and watch what happens.

ProT:
I asked for SPECIFIC POLICY, but u seem more interested in ad nauseam.

I'm done with you!

I'm done with you too.

Cant eat your cake and have it.

neyorlmogzy:
your name is Racoon, but it should be bofoon. How can you be in support of something your generation can never benefit from, but will pay the consequences? Ode oloriburuku ole oshi

Hahahaha.

Racoon dem dey talk to you.

ProT:
Quick question:
What is this policy that seems to positively-affect only people from the SE?

The same ones that makes S.Easterners claim they have started to build mansions since 2015.

Give it up.

You cannot change the narrative.

Either the government has failed or it has improved your condition.

sulaak:
What has Nigeria done with all the money it has borrowed, Buhari government has borrowed $26 billion since 2015, do you see $26 billion worth of infrastructure in Nigeria today. The refineries are still not working so we will spend a large chunk of that loan on imported oil.

Please provide links to figures being bandied.

Nigeria's debt described:

Debt Management Office records show Nigeria owed N12.1 trillion in June 2015, a month after Buhari took office. This was US$63.8 billion at the exchange rate of the time. By June 2018 total public debt had risen to N22.4 trillion, or $73.2 billion.

https://africacheck.org/reports/has-buharis-government-plunged-nigeria-into-80-billion-in-debt/

In other words, Nigeria had borrowed less than 10 billion dollars under Buhari.

You cannot blame him for the debt of others.

Ade3131:
And you don't see anything bad about incurring liabilities for your unborn generations?

Actually, I don't see anything wrong in a universal mechanism.

We all act as if America isn't adding an additional 4 trillion dollars to its debt burden but go into a frenzy over a mere 3.5 billion dollars for a country of 180 million people.

All we need to do is be more inventive, roll up our sleeves and work.

The rest of the world is advanced because they seek solutions but we are in a funk of constant whinging expecting some kind of supernatural transformation.

Abeg.

ProT:
I think it's more of "Lions not eating grass no matter how tough the jungle gets," than Buhari doing nada.

There's nothing like that.

Can't eat your cake and have it.

Either times are hard or you are progressing.

If you are progressing then it means government's policy is paying off.

yesloaded:
Use your head bro except there's nothing up there

Biko no quote me again, I just checked your profile n realized you are one of them

Face your job ok

I checked your profile and realised, oh no not another one of them.

Face your tears.

yesloaded:
I'm sorry but I don't seems to see sense in what you are saying

Look harder.

MrPaul2:
What are you saying, because everybody is doing it, do it make it right, when naira is equal to zero against dollars?
Is it not yesterday we just received over $300m dollars from Abacha loot?
What's the hope for common man?

What do you mean what is the hope for common man?

Common man should increase his productivity and watch how his society improves.

Joefat:
With you keep quiet.. what are you saying... Please do read over your comment before posting it next time..

I should keep quiet so your kind of people continue to misinform abi?

Nonsense.

omonnakoda:
Sometimes keeping quiet does not mean you are foolish but you can confirm it whe you speak

He's right.

Show me anywhere in the world parents of sportsmen are put on any kind of allowance simply because of the exploits of their wards.

Money maybe small but it the thought that count.

zicoraads:
On Nairaland, every one is king.

True but he could be telling the truth.

PS712:
Rashidi Yekini gave us happy memories. Those days all young boys on the pitch wanted to be strikers like Yekini!
One of my fondest goals I received arial pass with chest, ball bounced in fine control, noded past my opponent (defender),pushed it a little further with my right foot and rammed powerful shot past the goalkeeper, it was a sweet goal.
I had seen exact move from Yekini.

Weh done sir.

Take your award.

You never wanted the money returned in the first place because you know you would never handle it.

Gerarahia.

PrecisionFx:
U mean buhari gave money to individuals in the SE to build those houses?

I mean the houses were built in the last six years implies he boosted their economy.

You can't win that argument.

Either he did badly such that no development came to the east or he did so well that easterners are building houses in such numbers as never witnessed before since 2015.

Time for Nigerians to roll up their sleeves even further.

Racoon:
The loan they lied is a grant have finally arrived.Generations to come in Nigeria will pay this loan & its accruing interest.

Name the government official that claimed it to be a grant.

By the way, all countries are borrowing and all countries have had their future generations pay debt.

The whinging is worn out.

spyder880:
A south east where whole streets are built up in a few years. None of these buildings were existing here in the past 5 years, all new developments......

And you say Buhari isn't trying?

You wanted us to vote a known bisexual didn't you ?

edoairways:
Not all Nigerians

A large number actually.

5 years.

debaj10:
every single one of u has skewed, warped, utterly misplaced priorities..

na so China take great, abi?

las las, una brain go reset.

#lazynigerianyouths

Nigerians seem to have a sense of entitlement.

Peterobi90:
A 40m populated South Africa is able to operate and run a satellite TV network in a country of 200m whom cannot even run a 21st century TV single station but have the highest paid political leaders in the world should call for concern...

It is unexplainable...

DSTV is a privately owned enterprise.

Nothing stops you from establishing yours to compete.
