Bolustic:
It's simple. The naira will not appreciate until we start producing the foods we import, stop refining the crude our oil abroad, until our universities are world class.

It's just demand and supply. Naira isn't demanded as dollar is.

I don't see the naira appreciating till Dangote refinery starts working in the first quarter of 2019.

My thoughts though.

StOla:
The Murray Bruce family is one I will never gloat over their present financial debacle. Their history in business starting from their father, devoid of government loot, is one that is worthy of emulation.

I might not agree with Senator Ben Bruce politically, but he has my respect for his business acumen and lofty ideals. How this investment went bad is what puzzles me.

Lagos Light Rail Line is too costly compare to a similar project in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia .

Please see below :


Addis Ababa Light Rail Project,Span : 34Km. Cost : $475m
number of Stations : 39
Project Tenure : 2011 - 2015

Status : The project is already completed and running effectively .

Lagos Light Rail project

Span : 27km
Cost : $1.2Bn
number of Stations : 13
project Tenure : 2010 till date
Status : not completed

Is the new 4th mainland bridge worth the cost?

Is Nigeria turning to a one party state?
Meanwhile, former Ekiti governor (Fayemi) spent N50mil buying bedroom furnishings, he is now a minister under Bubu.
Why are some thieves better than other thieves?

MIKOLOWISKA:
is it there hungry governor's looting left right centre. Obj said anybody can collect licence and build but refused to allow Lagos under fashola to do so cos they were opposition

mandax:
Eternal survivalist strategist, Obasanjo.
Any one that has Buhari's ears is Obasanjo's pal.

$16 billion missing from the energy sector alone during the last OBJ admin.


Halliburton is a clear-cut indictment of OBJ

Halliburton scandal is being swept underground by Buhari.

Others included in the bribery scandal are already in prison, but OBJ circulates near Nigeria's seat of power to avoid prosecution.

eshietIntrepid:
I agree from One to three, four should be either calabar and kano, eight to ten is ok.

ehinja:
The annoying aspect for me is the fact that I was getting less than I invested after retaining my money for 6 years!!!

If you are not adding a penny at least give back the initial capital.

Imagine the difference in value of 140K in 2011 compared to 2016.

Anytime I remember that your consolatory goal against India after the Indians had scored 99, i'm always happy.

TellingItAsItIs:
Buhari hates every southern tribe/non muslim especially igbos because of our doggedness nd non zombieism coupled wit the fact that we saw nothing good in him nd dint fall for his "change" scam.
Picking a yoruba or igbo candidate to run with him is only out of political interest and not love.
This man is a hardened ethnic and religious bigot and his silence on the fulani herdmen menace on SW/SE/SS proves that.
GEJ was anything but a bigot.the north benefitted most from his administration than the SS(almajiri schools,good roads etc.
It is the duty of a good leader to provide good governance for all its peoples irrespective of who voted him in or not but bubu being an oldfashioned bigot fails to realise that.
Well,I wish nigeria the best till 2016.

micktoxin:
Nice to see the new generations of Yorubas doing great and following our footsteps. Let the governors invest in education to improve the WAEC/Jamb pass rates because the latest figures are underwhelming and less than what Yorubas are capable of.

busterr:
that's why his team mates' hearts are filled with jealousy.

Tokety7:

The change here in this instance is there was nothing like money for budget. Remember Fabian Osuji and Wabara budget debacle when killer party was in charge? Since this democratic dispensation, executives have been purchasing budgets estimates from NASS. It was attempted but it failed in this dispensation. No one purchased anything. There lies ur change.

Indeed he was great. I remember his goal at the '94 W/Cup Nigeria vs Italy.
