We have achieved number 3

Stop lying! Ink never even dry on many of the policies wey the Senate sign yet your conclusion is that even without actual implementation, it has been achieved. What do you gain by these lies?

yommen:
■ The fulanis are actually more brutal and wicked.

And the current administration is not even ready to tackle the problem of insecurity in Nigeria evidenced by the fact that it remains interested instead in looting the treasury blind and destroying the economy further in turn fueling the problem of insecurity and crime in the land.

Proudlyngwa:
✓ Yes Vulcanising,tailoring and mechanic, we need more people doing that , then improvising new ideas, new tools, new materials.
✓ That is how a country grows
✓ Improvise, evolve or go extinct. It has nothing to do with corruption. Nigerians are too docile

You are not being serious, are you? 🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐

2. A country grows by having its people trained as most of its youths trained as vulcanizers,tailors, and mechanics, and traders? Are you serious?

3. The word improvise pretends that you have something-- resources , skills, tools, etc., ---to aide the improvisation. Most Nigerians are dirty poor, lack the knowledge and necessary skills to do what you demand.

A farmer with only a hoe and his seeds cannot be used expected to improvise beyond the limits of his tools and resources. So how can you suggest improvisation as a way forward?

✓ You can’t be creative or think critically when you are hungry... all your focus would be how to eat now to stay alive.
We all know that Food is very important in brain development and when your brain is fully developed, then can you be able to think critically and solve problems.
God bless you Peter Obi. Hunger is very bad I know rich kids won’t understand this. Let’s conquer hunger first if we are to move forward.

Before all of this APC scourge befell Nigerians, were the people thinking right to have elected APC into office and even allowed a sick man remain in office even after the lesson that was Yar adua?

Abegi!

🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

danhans:
I don't seem to understand world bank self,today they will say we should be patient tomorrow they say something different

The World Bank is not saying anything different from what it said(IMF) said back ij 1986-1992 regarding the best way forward for Nigeria. The same set of reforms that were presented to IBB—he reused to wholly implement and maintain the reforms—are the same set of reforms that are needed even now if Nigeria is to move forward. Obasanjo started wholly implementing some of them in 2003 and he maintained those reforms until Yar adua came in and then reversed most of them before he died bringing Nigeria back to square one again.

The question now is will the current administration wholly implement the plans and sustain said implementations or will it simply continue looting Nigerians blind while it lies that it has put reforms in place?

■ Many Africans have argued that the cardinal reason behind such currency devaluation is to satisfy the Global North financial sharks like the IMF and the World Bank, and act their scripts.
■ It has become clear that the major interest of these financial institutions is to stifle the economies of developing countries and keep them under the control of world superpowers, as witnessed in Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

Was the devaluation of the Naira that occurred during the Buhari regime equally to blame on the IMF & World Bank?

This is a report that came out last year on the issue of rapid devaluation that occurred. Also note that as we speak, there are still multiple Fx Windows operated in Nigeria to this day.

2. How come, back in 2003-2007 when Obasanjo diligently implemented and maintained the reforms suggested by the IMF & World Bank, Nigeria's economy instead experienced a resurge of kinds that it had never before experienced?

Rather than pay attention to what other Africans argue, investigate the details for your own self to learn fact from propaganda and lies!

Blackdisciple:
Lolzz...
It will continue like this as long as we uses dollars in Nigeria and the people doing this trade in dollars probably earn in dollars .. so...

Stop yapping these excuses abeg!

richmond500:
everything IMF says is happening, so I believe the policies.

Stop lying!

What is currently still there are still just the policies on paper to get the reforms in place. The actual implementation --- even plans for implementation --- remain missing to date. Why? Because your government, 18 months in, is not ready to in fact implement any of the reforms as it is busy looting Nigerians blind while telling them to hold on in suffering.

Proudlyngwa:
✓ ..Am not talking of informal education from the street, am talking of learning trades, we have too many graduates pursuing too few white collar employment.
✓ What we need are more certified technical inclined people that can manoeuvre things , this can only be learnt in workshops .
That is informal education

1. Learning what trades? Vulcanizing? Mechanic? Tailoring? What do you mean by trade in this case?

2. No be engineers you dey mean? Aren't those trades that are typically learned in formal educational settings where students conquer booty the theory and technical aspects of the technical program?

chaloskyx:
all all thanks to taking directives from you to devalue our currency you now come to our face to gaslight us nawa o

That is a bloody lie! Stop allowing your corrupt kakistocrats deceive you with propaganda for Pete's sake!

Nigeria has yet to formerly implement any of the reforms suggested by the World Bank to date. The lawmakers have created policies to enable the reform but that is the most Nigeria has accomplished to date.

richmond500:
the bulk of our imports is refined fuel. With a refinery, we have totally eliminated that

We have, and yet as we speak, Nigeria continues to import fuel... how come? Don't think you can ever impress me with all of the bullsheet claims you are paid to make. Please try to skip over all that trash when responding to my posts.

richmond500:
■ when u hear people say I work in a particular sector or I have first hand knowledge, just know they want to lie.
Just because u are doing POS doesn't mean u work in the financial sector.
Ogbeni rest, FX mean foreign exchange and if u don't see how reduction in imports can help our foreign exchange then u have a problem.
Make u rest with ur financial sector, the highest transaction u make a day is probably 200k from that ur POS stand

The other commenter is correct to say that there is still not just one Fx window in Nigeria to this day.

How can Nigeria reduce imports when Nigeria does not produce much of what it consumes? Last I heard, Pencils and toothpicks are still not manufactured in Nigeria.

Cromagnon:
■ You really think they're is no corruption in Abroad

What is with these nonsensical segues for Pete' sake? Is Abroad the topic or Nigeria?

Cabalgeneral:
■ I'm Deltan not Yoruba

If you are Deltan and you own farmland, in say Taraba State, and you then realize that pests have invaded your farm, would you not kill those pests and save your crops?

Or do you want us to believe that because you are not from Taraba State, you will allow the pests to ravage your farmland as they please?

Cabalgeneral:
■ Inside Benue part of south east

What are you arguing? Since when is it required that farmers only protect their crops in farms that are located within the same region they are themselves from?

Is a farmer who owns land in the North, for example, not allowed to eliminate pests on his farmland because he is himself from the south east or something?

mrvitalis:
■ We would welcome that retaliation. Any Igbo man they see inside their forest they are free to kill
Thank u

What nonsense vomit is this?

Cabalgeneral:
■ What will happen when Fulani, Hausa,kanuri,Beru etc in the middle belt and north start retaliation to the horrendous activities being carried out by Ipob Igbo in the south east, Benue/Ebonyi border.

Why would they need to retaliate when the argument is that these southeasterners(southwesterners not excluded)—many of them possibly farmers protecting their crops— kill only the animals that have become pests to their crops? If you have a pest infestation, isn't it common sense to kill off the pests to save your crops?

Akfrenzy:
■ they'll still find a way to maneuver it and push it to common Nigerians. Ask urself how much tax waivers these politicians and their companies are getting yearly. Especially Dangote, MTN, Glo, UBA etc

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Elusive001:
■ While at that, no policy no matter how excellent it is can work when Corrupt, greedy, evil, wicked men are in leadership or are to implement it.

Yes, finally, Nigeria has reached the point where it can no longer continue kicking the can down the road as far as corruption is concerned. Corruption has become a blackhole that can not and should not be ignored or Nigeria risks becoming a failed state by 2030.

Elusive001:
■ World Bank and IMF did not. Why lead a country when you have no iota of sense on what to do? How can one want to achieve high performing leadership with the hope that these bodies.will guide him?
This is the consequence of being a president just for the name of it.

The reforms suggested by the World Bank, many of the same reforms that were part of SAP(1986-1992), and eventually implemented by Obasanjo, although many rolled back during Yar Aduas time in office — are really common-sense reforms that are needed in Nigeria to this day. Many of these reforms have been made into policies however, a problem comes up when it comes time to implement them as the government does not have the will to put in place these measures that will reduce their powers.

Obasanjo was able to begin the successful implementation of several of the same reforms between 2002 and 2007, and I suspect he had sought a third term in office to ensure the reform implementations were maintained beyond 2007. But we all know how that never happened, and Yar adua put a cock on things.

FriendsAndFans:
...

Yes, the grid is now at about 90% assuming generation is really at 5600MW claimed by the government in the resent report.

LadyExcellency:
Next year or two, when it appreciates to N1200, they will call it the best-performing currency.
The World Bank and IMF deceived Buhari and Tinubu into destroying the economy and degrading every social class in Nigeria.

Nonsense!

The world bank/IMF did not decide your Nigeria. Rather, your Tinubu and Buhari deceived you by blaming the IMF and world bank like IBB before them did.

Proudlyngwa:
■ Education does not necessarily mean formal education, are you saying that the parents who suppose to teach children stealing is bad is corrupt or is it that they just don't care.
■ Education of the mind which is the most important thing starts from the home. Moreover people put themselves under unnecessary pressure to get irrelevant white collar education making them poorly educated for the task ahead , what a simple trademanship would have taught them.

1. Have you seen the average Nigerian parent before? They are themselves corrupt entities who are all too willing to take bribe, cut down their neighbor for their own benefit, etc. So, how do you expect those same to teach their kids that stealing is bad or corrupt?

2. I am sorry to tell you but what you already see of Nigeria reflects the quality of informal education obtained from upbringing and society combined in Nigeria even today. And if we are honest, we can at least admit that Nigerian parents are doing a very terrible job raising their kids and changing society. Formal education can actually go a long way in countering a lot of that, however, corruption stands in the way of providing the people with beneficial formal education.

Proudlyngwa:
■ The greatest challenge to Nigeria's development is education and miseducation

But corruption is at the root of the problems in your Education system and the reason for much of the miseducation. Corruption has safely situated itself as the black hole that will stop all progress in that country.

Imagine for one minute the many lies/propaganda that your very president has been reported to have said during many of his interviews, meetings, and live broadcasts — all of these sources of misinformation —, don't you see that corruption is to blame for when it is all without consequence.

Olaolar:
So as husband in the house the money I make is everybody’s money .. But the money my wife make is her money Even though she’s making money more than I do Make responsibility kill man ??

You chose to make your marriage this way, and you are here to whine about it, why?

Look, if you want your wife to contribute portions of her earnings to the running of the household, then you and her need to come together and make this decision together as a couple. Strangers cannot do this for you.

Peter Obi

The greatest challenge to Nigeria's development is not food insecurity but corruption that is at the root of the problem of food insecurity.

Thrasher2024:
I hate seeing this kind of headlines. Lift poor Nigerians with 5k abi 10k in this useless economy? What happened to giving money to businesses, startups and empowerment to drive our economy forward? Instead they're giving money to Nigerians that it'll not benefit

This is money for the politicians as there is no way to confirm that 20 million actual Nigerians, all of them living in abject poverty, would get the money. This is the same crook and crime committed during the Buhari period that this administration has been executing for the last 18 months.

Capitalism Has Failed in Africa: Musician Seun Kuti Speaks Out 🔽

Nonsense claim!

Africans still dey tackle corruption on a massive scale --- it has literally become a black hole. And Africa has never truly known capitalism. What part of the Government sharing rice and free cash when the people are vexed while the rich continue to loot the system is capitalism? Nonsense!
