Lol. An economic illiterate calling others joker. Simple question requiring a simple answer.

You claim "the allocation of previous administration can still do more"

yet why were States on the verge of collapse under Jonathan and Buhari to the extent many were borrowing to pay salary whereas today all States pay salary comfortably with their federal allocation?

Explain.

The main 'ability' most of you have is being the most insulting and uncouth Africans alive whereas you lack the knowledge of those you insult.

Pay particular attention to the assertion;

Among three countries that involve in the war, who started the war?

And America that have over 800 bases across the globe nko??

Can you show some evidence?

What's the connection between floating the Naira, removing subsidy, and borrowing.

Many of you just parrot fake opposition 'anger' against borrowing. Has Mr Obi or Mr Atiku said they would not borrow if they became President. What a joke. They will put a dollar-printing machine in Aso Rock and print dollars to their hearts content abi?

Virtually every country in the world that has access to borrow money is borrowing.

The richest countries in the world- Switzerland, Norway, Saudi Arabia etc are constantly borrowing money to improve their countries.

Yet, you expect Nigeria that desperately needs infrastructure to siddon dey look as the likes of even Ghana, Kenya, Ethiopia, Rwanda etc borrow to develop their economies.

No country on planet earth developed without borrowing money. If you know one, mention it.

Lagos State is the most indebted State in Nigeria, yet it is the most developed. If you are Ekiti or Cross River etc, and your people are opposed to your state taking loans to build infrastructure, no problem. You remain stagnant where you are.

NIGERIA NEEDS LOANS.THE COUNTRY SIMPLY DOES NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO FINANCE ITS INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS.

It is no coincidence that Mr Dangote and his companies, MTN, Airtel are some of the most indebted companies in Nigeria. But they are also some of the richest. Often, you have to borrow to invest, and then pay back the loan from the profits from that investment.

Mr Dangote borrowed billions of dollars to build his refinery. No doubt his mates who opposed borrowing and chose to sit down at home eating guguru are looking at Mr Dangote's refinery success now and wandering whether they too should have borrowed to expand their businesses. If you choose not to take risks in life, no problem. But often, the most successful are people who take risks.

The issue is not about the loan itself. It is about whether you can afford to pay it back, and whether you use it for the right purpose.

Nigeria can certainly afford to pay back its loans. The economy is growing at about 4% annually, though that growth rate may or may not fall in the near term due to the Iran war.

Instead of jumping up at the mention of government taking a loan, citizens should focus on mounting pressure on the government to ensure that loans are deployed for the right purposes.

WizardOfNG:
Subsidy money not seen how? Aren't States and local Government getting at least 3 times what they were recieving before subsidy removal?

Go and lobby your Governor and LGA chairman if you want to "see" subsidy money and stop obsessing about Mr.President alone.

You guys deliberately refuse to do your civic duty, as done elsewhere globally, so you can indulge your unprogressive and bigoted desire for demarketing a President you dislike because of his ethnic and religious background.

It is nothing other than that because you would be more active lobbying those, leadership-wise , directly more important to you than the President, your Governors and local Government Chairmen, where you and all Nigerians live. I.e in a local government of a State in Nigeria.

Medical Doctors dey over do things normally. The government should start appointing Pulic Administration Officers to head Teaching hospitals and other public health institution.

DomPerignon:
The US is launching strikes from standoff positions over Saud Arabia and UAE using fighter jets that take off from Greece Cyprus and UK's Diego Garcia Military base in the Indian ocean.

All the US fighter jets and bombers dare not enter Iranian airspace since the downing of 2 F-35 and 2 tanker refueling aircrafts.

The US has not achieved air dominance over Iran courtesy of the state of the art Chinese radar system and satellite recon provided by both China and Russia.

The US has lost all their radar installations in the region. A billion dollar radar network was taken out in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar and also in Israel.

There is also no naval fleet in the region. All have withdrawn to a safe distance 1,000km away in the Indian ocean.

This war isn't going well for the US.

They are talking about low budget fubara not Mr Governor
Don't mind those lashing you here, they are doing as if they can't make mistakes

Many people are announcing they fought Abacha as if fighting Abacha is some form of accomplishment.

Abacha has done his bit and left. As bad as Abacha was to the political class, check the metrics of his time. Abacha kept exchange rate stable, ramped up foreign reserves, started train 1 of LNG, built major infrastructure in Abuja, created six states, and never borrowed a cent as Nigeria was sanctioned.

Abacha was corrupt based on NSA Ismaila Gwarzo raising suspicious vouchers to collect forex from CBN. The money Abacha looted is being sent back home and never finishes. Wasn't a former CBN governor in a civilian administration accused on moving boxes of forex from CBN? How is he different from Abacha?

The politicians during Abacha's time were decent, compared to the politicians now.

As for those comparing Tinubu to Abacha, they should be aware that if Tinubu is anything close to Abacha, they won't even be living in Nigeria as Nigeria would not contain them and Tinubu. Tinubu is probaly the most liberal president since 1999. What Omoyele Sowore and Nasir El Rufai are doing today, they wouldn't get away with it under Obasanjo or Yar'adua.

Richtaiwo:
Reno Omokri continues to hang like an albatross around the neck of Pitobi and his directionless supporters.

If Tinubu were truly the tyrant these unthinking crowds loudly proclaim, figures such as Atiku, Obi and Sowore would not be freely expressing dissent, they would already be behind bars without explanation. Even Nasir El-Rufai, who often indulges in reckless public commentary on national television, would hardly dare such behavior under a genuinely repressive regime.

Lithiumite:
It's funny how this people who get oppurtuned to leave the shores of this country are always quick to lampoon their country as they revel in the glory and grandeur of their host western country..... their condescending attitude is disgusting mainly because they are apparently ignorantly oblivious of the hideous fact that these countries they are always praising for their development and organisation are in fact the ones responsible fir the underdevelopment and economic mess sub Saharan African countries are going through.......someone messed up your father's house ,you move over to his house which is better and then you start abusing your own house destroyed by your oppressor.

Not deaths.

About 10 million Ukrainians fled to neighboring countries. About 2 million are dead or wounded, while the remaining 8 million are in Russian occupied regions in Ukraine.

Since these Ukranian territories are now basically Russian, the inhabitants would no longer be counted as Ukranians.

By the way, 3 million Ukrainians fled to Russian mainland in the early months of the war.

The problem with immigration is that it'll be hard for those that left to return, majority of them are women. They've started whole new lives in their various countries and might never return to an unstable and unsafe country.

All it'll take is a single generation for those Ukranians to fully convert to the nationality of their host countries. Ukraine has lost them forever.

In 4 years 20 million gone.

Would you like to see another 20 million gone in another 4 years?

And FYI, if you believe Ukranian men are the ones still holding ground, I have a bridge to sell you.

Ukraine recruits from every part of the world. There are dozens of websites where any random person can apply and join. Easy.
