BusinessRe: Why Prices Are Still On The Rise Despite Appreciation Of The Naira by Iamgrey5(m): 3:28pm On Apr 18, 2024
There's no explanation but excuses by Producers who are forcing upward mobility in price despite other factors of production not changing much.

The only new cost is higher intrest rate nothing new.

BusinessRe: Data Shows CBN Not Defending Naira With FX Reserves - Businessday by Iamgrey5(m):
predictor1:
That lady Aisha whatever was actually encouraging people to keep on speculating against naira. You see the grouse people have against obidicianries?
She was actually telling speculators to hoard dollars that they don't need for any transactions to force Naira to crash against Major currencies.

I have never seen opposition actively encouraging economic saboteurs in my life.
BusinessRe: Data Shows CBN Not Defending Naira With FX Reserves - Businessday by Iamgrey5(m):
I don't understand the need for people to attack the stability of Naira based on limited knowledge of the operations of the central bank?

Even if CBN is defending Naira with our reserve, why should we encourage speculators to drag our currency to a terrible rate by stroking fear?

Don't they understand that the poor who don't have the money to "trade dollars for Naira and vice versa" will suffer the most?

And that is apparently 70% of Nigerians according to World bank data

I was surprised that a so called human rights Activist like Aisha Yesufu will let humanitarian needs fly over her head to start acting like a bitter soul.

The Lady is a power drunk lunatic

That's not how you declare independence.

You have all these money but can't help poor communities within the South West to dig borehole water, you can't help the poor with education scholarships.

However, you simply bought guns and Cutlass for some hoodlums and gave them instructions to match to the government secretariat which happens to be the most heavily secured place in the state to go and meet their doom.

She is not different from politicians that give guns to tugs during election to seize power.

How do you declare the freedom of millions without seeking their consent or gaining their trust.
Are you not just a rebranded dictator?
PoliticsRe: CBN Not Using Foreign Reserves To Defend Naira — Cardoso by Iamgrey5(m): 7:38am On Apr 18, 2024

Believe what you want to believe

I won't prove anything to you and your likes .

Seun just created a thread on Tinubu and I know your likes will call him Igbo too as usual .
Why will I call someone Igbo for creating Anti Tinubu tread. Did every single Yoruba person vote for Tinubu in the last general election?

Tinubu lost Lagos and Osun state in the last election.

Even all igbos don't necessarily love Obi and I know most of you call them "Agbado" a word you use interchangeably for Yorubas. grin

Anyone that speaks the truth is tagged Igbo person by Tinubu useless and foolish asswipes

Abeg is Chief olusegun obasanjo Igbo person who openly rejected Tinubu presidency ?

Is former vice president Osibanjo an Igbo man who openly rejected Tinubu presidency?

Tinubu was rejected in Lagos and Osun where he comes from so why are his supporters hating on the Igbos ?

Tinubu supporters are the most stupid sets of people on earth obviously.
So asking a ridiculous question about Oyo state as a Lagos indigenous person as you claim is "speaking against Tinubu "

Even the Obasanjo you referenced has his farms in Oyo state. grin

Gat you. I now know for a fact you are not a Yoruba man.

Most of you thrive on lies, propaganda and deception. This same road where many have lost their lives to herdsmen and ritualists or another one? Even some prominent people with police escort have come under attacks severally and the news can be found on the net, yet you come here to lie so shamelessly?

You and your likes can only deceive the ignorant ones.
The Lagos Ibadan road has less Fulani attacks than Beinin ore road or most Express road in northern part of Nigeria.

In terms of accident, it doesn't have more accident on average than most Express roads in Nigeria.

The Lagos Ibadan express road is one of the busiest route in Nigeria since time memorial.
PoliticsRe: I Will Be Traveling To OYO STATE But Scared Of My Safety by Iamgrey5(m):
The Journey from Lagos to Ibadan (Oyo state) is the most frequently journeyed in Nigeria.

I can categorically say a person claiming to be a Lagos indigenous person can never fear to enter Oyo.

Una no know say the werey dey pay huge to defend naira





Tinubu is paying for naira subsidy
How is Tinubu paying subsidy on Naira?

Most of you will just be saying something you don't know.

Emefile paid subsidy on Naira by keeping one artificial rate and one real rate called the parallel market rate.

We shoul all know that history can not be changed

the people we now call Yorubas and the Edos AKA Bini have one history together we cant deny today?

Oshodi is a big family in Benin, same as Akpata.

The Edos have Kehinde, Taiwo and Olufemi as names.

The same history is what the Itsekiris have too.
This is not true

There's no way to interpret Kehinde, Apata or Olufemi in Benin language.

The Ishekiri on the other hand can interpret it because they speak Yoruba.

That quote was filled with wisdom.

Jonathan was also President and was thrown under the bus by you and your region.

So what makes Tinubu untouchable?


You have lost Southern unity Propaganda and even the North doesn't regard TINUBU. So where will you manufacture the victory? Who do you cling to, when 'shit hits the fan' . You dug your own grave, because in your test for power you setback your region a 10000years.

Keep deluding yourself.. e go shock una.
Lol

Jonathan and Tinubu are not the same type of politicians, the circumstances were also different.

Jonathan was seen as using Yaraduas turn to be president and gang up against him to remove him. Jonathan is not even a proper politician but he almost overcame them


Tinubu on the other hand is proper politician who won the First time against all odds. He is not seen as using northern slot in office. It's also too far from election period for Tinubu to sabotage his own government with insecurity.

BusinessRe: Exchange Rate: What Is Now The True Value Of The Naira? by Iamgrey5(m): 4:34pm On Apr 13, 2024
DMerciful:
Anything above $216 APC met it is unacceptable! So far Emefiele performed better because exchange rate was around N500.

Whatever money you think Cardoso is saving is being looted by Tinubu and Gbajabiamila so it doesnt impact the common man
Exchange rate was around 700 to 800 before Emefile's departure without the subsidy.

That is exactly where it's heading again.

Nigeria oil production has fallen from the close to 3 million barrels in year 2015 to 1.5 to 1.7 and price of crude oil is not at 100 dollars per barrel as it was in 2015. So I don't know how you want CBN governor to return the rate to 250 to a dollar.

The Nigerian budget has also grown without substantial growth in TaX income and GDP.
BusinessRe: Exchange Rate: What Is Now The True Value Of The Naira? by Iamgrey5(m):
DMerciful:
You're gaslighting yourself bro. Cardoso is doing exactly the same thing. When Cardoso sells $ at a certain price, thats fixing $ at that price, all other things you're saying is verbiage
I really doubt you know anything about economics

Cardsoso sells at 1150 but the real market settles around 1050 naira. That is what is called market forces determination of price( it shows demand is lower than supply)


The moment Cardsoso sells at 750 but the reaction in the market is to sell at 753 Naira to Nigerians, That will simply mean supply and demand of dollars in the Nigerian economy is at almost or at equilibrium.

This is a complete departure from Emefile' policy who fixed the rate at 450 while the real market kept tumbling upon to it got to 750 naira.

The 300 naira that is in the middle is the subsidy CBN was paying on the Naira, So he was borrowing to cover the 300 Naira that only few Nigerians benefited from.

DMerciful:
Cardoso is doing exactly the same thing!
Cardsoso is not doing exactly the same.

Hence, your currency was allowed to fall to 2000 naira before CBN will start intervention in the market.

The CBN now wants metrics like Market forces i.e (equilibrium of supply and demand), the rate at which CBN can also defend without borrowing to determine the new dollar/Naira rate.


It's no longer artificially set at a given price where they have to defend it recklessly.

Emefiele cannot borrow money to do that. Prove it!

If you wanna defend failure, go ahead without making it seems Emefiele was responsible for Bubu's ineptitude.

APC met dollar below N200 so why has the APC not been able to bring down $ for 9yrs below N200?
