That was a very clueless response from Olufunmilayo. He demonstrated a shocking lack of basic comprehension ability expected from a medical doctor. What Ben Bruce said is absolutely correct. Buy Nigeria to make Naira regain its strength. The present value of Naira is its true value.

That utterly disrespectful assault can never be justified.

E no Dey work like that..

Please don’t let them deceive..

Most of the Nigerian business men send their money overseas, they only keep very little in Nigeria..

Even if you buy Nigerian goods, those CEO’s will still send dia profits abroad. They will also buy raw materials and equipments they can easily produce in Nigeria abroad..

So it’s still desame problems repeating it self in different dimensions..

No be only imports they make the Naira weak..

Remittances made by foreign companies to their countries is also a huge factor.. It’s even harmful than importation..

A reason Emefile suspended remittances by foreign companies to their countries, because it was about to destroy the Naira..

This deep pass for importation, then add corruption..

Truth!

Lying is in the DNA of IPOB cannibals.

Show me one country that imports 100x more than Nigeria and is doing better than us or SHARRAAP

Go find am for google..

Bloody illiterate…


Let me ask you devil a question..

Why are international banks with big money not available in Nigeria?

Don’t you think they will easily bring the needed FX?

Why is our banking sector nationalized?

Why is our banking sector a Nigerian affair?

Oga go google find countries wey de import even sand, water, yet they do very well..

Ur problem is you can’t think..

U b Mumu.

complexstuffs:
Why do IPOB cannibals lie so much

Calm down..

You know multi national / foreign companies remitting their funds to their countries is also a reason the Naira keeps falling..

Why did Emefile suspend it?

If not for that Naira would have been here since Buhari era..

Add our own big guys wey Dey hedge their profits in foreign economies, etc..

No be no only imports they mess the value of the Naira.. As dem make you believe..

The main problems Dey..


Many things Dey we dem no go tell the masses..

Dem corrupt die..

Be wise.

No support bad thing..

Iran(Persia) is the founder and sponsor of HAMAS in Palestine, and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Iran has always threatened to, in their own words, wipe Israel off the face of the Earth. Iran has been waging proxy wars against Israel for years through HAMAS and Hezbollah. For your information, Iran is Gog, while Russia is Magog.

Iran and Russia are the two countries John prophesied about in Revelation 20:7-9 (CJB):
"And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison,

and he will come out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war; the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

They went up over the width of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the holy ones, and the beloved city(Jerusalem). Fire came down out of heaven from God and devoured them."

Russia has already comfortably created a military base in Syria after helping Syria's President-Assad crush ISIS. This terrorist group known as ISIS was allegedly sponsored by the U.S. and its allies in order to topple the government of Mr. Assad. Still undefeated, still the Syrian President.

Not once in the past 2,500 years has Russia formed a military alliance with Persia(Iran), but they have recently developed a special connection. Russia has signed Billion Dollar deals to sell missiles to Iran, and the Iranians have helped the Russians, providing them with drones, weaponized drones to use in the Ukraine war.

The scriptures cannot be broken, I authoritatively say to you that Israel, especially Jerusalem will be bombed by them, but they won't succeed. Their moves lately is a testament to the fact that they're preparing for the release of Satan. Sooner or later, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Turkey and China will attack Israel.

Now, the irony of all this is that the United States of America through the Biden administration in a prisoner deal planned to give Six Billion Dollars to Iran. What a bad move it would have been to give any money to a nation that sponsors terrorism around the world.

The move to deny Iran access to the money comes after harsh criticism that the Biden administration had given Iran a vast sum for Iran to provide support to HAMAS and Hezbollah. Follow this link to get the full scoop:

Superstition!

Programmer47:
You dey bother yourself bros.
These ones are gone.
If whatsapp update show tomorrow, don't be surprised that the same person arguing with you will quickly change mouth.
Do you think he does not know all you are talking about?
Reply the ones you can reply and go about your day. Most of them are here 24/7 , switching between their various accounts while spewing all sorts of nonsense

You are right..

ElSudani:
I said you are ignorant. The Arab oil producers can import as much as they want because their population is miniscule compared with Nigeria. Some have 5 times our oil reserves with population less than that of Lagos.
You are comparing things that are not related. You need to keep quiet.

You see why I called you an illiterate?

We have a big population, no doubt. But how many of the big population have enuf money to consume imported goods? Very few of that population.

80% of Nigerians are poor it means , majority of us are not using foreign goods directly..

Unlike the rich Arabs, that the whole population can afford foreign goods..

Majority of Nigerians are so poor the live bellow a dollar a day and spend all their money one food. Abi na foreign food them they chop?

Oga use your head?

Even if our population is big, %85 can’t afford foreign goods directly…

We even u products till after their life span has expired.. Our demand is very weak..

You are the Ignorant person here..

You can’t use your brain..


How much billion of dollars FX did emefile give Dangote to run his biz? That’s were u FX is been drained..

Another problem is remittance by Multi national firms. The rich hedging their funds in stable currencies. Currently the middle class has joined them.


Try reason..

Programmer47:
This is the new whatsapp update bros.
It is no longer about bad governance but the citizens themselves.

The major reason why we source Fx is Oil.
This should be the first thing that is slashed.
The clowns in office would rather dance around than actually do what needs done

Government clowns hand Dey inside, it’s all their fault.. Not the citizens..

How much billion dollars Emifile gave Dangote, for him to do what? Import equipments for his companies and raw materials.. This is one aspect that will continue to mount pressure on our FX..

It’s not the small, imported products me and you enjoy that draining our FX…

Most Nigerians don’t even demand foreign goods that much..

Make we cool down analyze this thing well.

Dem no want us to know the truth..

ElSudani:
You are a stark Illiterate. The more we export the less pressure on the naira. The more made in Nigeria goods we consume the less we import and the less pressure on the naira.
This is how it works not your convoluted beer parlor economics.

"Dangote and his bro n co are building refineries, so our import bill will go up.."

This is straight up nonsense, something you would expect from someone who never went to any school.

I leave you to enjoy your ignorance.

We have Arab and Northern African countries who are not exporting much, yet they have a good economy and stable currency..

Try think, reason..

I’m not disputing the fact that exports will make our country grow and currency stable.. But in the case of Nigeria it won’t.. Because we still rely too much of foreign machines and raw materials used for manufacturing whatever..

So it’s almost a meaningless adventure….

Nigeria has the biggest economy in Africa not because we export crude.. We have massive investments in the manufacturing sector too..

And this massive investments drain our forex cos of the points I mentioned earlier..

It will be difficult for you an illiterate to understand what’s truly going on..

niel63:
So I just say make I come post something here based on a conversation I had with a guy here on NL regarding Jobs in Nigeria and Nigerian employers.

So, there was this job alert on X for a mid-level React Native Developer. I swear my mind tell me say na one of those jobs wey plenty headache dey follow cos the person asked to join a whatsapp group. Well, I still say make I apply as country hard small like this

To my surprise, over 100 people joined same group, and I was like wow, devs dey 9ja ooo.

I became even more suspicious when i asked a question based on job description and the developments direction since it's RN... see ehn, RN has become complex, yet very simple but you need to know what development direction you're to follow.
1. The bare RN development
2. The Expo Managed Workflow, which is further distinguished by the SDK you're using... because of the new App Router in Expo SDK 49 and new releases.

So, I noticed a few guys also asked intelligent questions based on the job, they still didn't answer rather, posted a Google form link for application.
Finally, application form with job description.

Omo, Nigerian employers really need to do better.
You're telling people they will be earning 100k up to 300k in Naira... and have a work input of 40hrs per week.
Hahaha!!!!

Well, guess what, I got kicked out of the group when I asked why they'd want to pay a React Native Developer between $100 - $300 per month on a 40hr weekly input.

Na ment?
I know say hunger dey but some 9ja employer wicked abeg. Tomorrow they'd say they are doing you favour... someone will take the job and I wish em the best of luck when RN starts with im wahala! RN is simple BUT omo, if e start with you, you'd hope you don't smash your computer on the ground.

See screenshots 🤣🤣😂😂

E go beta.

ElSudani:
You are talking nonsense. You have no clue what is being discussed. It is always good to read and learn than to just display your ignorance for the world to see.

You don’t know all the factories they are building in Nigeria rely on imported equipment, raw materials, etc..

They add it up, to our import bill..

No be Wetin the masses they consume they drive the import bill up, na wettin the big men they import for their biz, etc..

Know one is talking about that, cos majority of us can’t think, read and investigate the truth..

ElSudani:

Ok!

Then talk the sense let me hear..

Na illiterates like you Dey kill this country..

Go and check the list of things imported into Nigeria.. The most valuable ones are fuel, machines, raw materials, wheat and cars..

Most of our imports bills are industrial goods imported by big manufacturers like Dangote and co into the country..

We spend $3B dollars importing cars, this amount consist of all viechles in the country..

We also spend $3.something dollars importing wheat, most of this wheat are imported by the industrialist for manufacturing. Eg noodles, flour, etc.. It’s not the bread me n you eat that gulps that amount.

Another thing you should know is some of this equipment and raw materials are funded abroad, so don’t rely on our FX system..

Dangote and his bro n co are building refineries, so our import bill will go up..

Lots of industrial activities accured in the eastern part of th nation last year/this year and other parts of Nigeria..

Let me give you a clue: The factories we build in Nigeria, the more the Naira will slump..

As a core illiterate you won’t understand..

You believe what ever you hear..

Get your self informed.

Mr. illiterate, It’s not the imported goods me and u consume that’s the main problem.

Ezi bida, crimes cannot totally be stopped but it can be brought to a minimal level

You’re a f001 for calling me small pikin, my last child is 17 this year

Like I told you, something’s are above your reasoning

Former governor willie Obiano reduced burial ceremonies to only one day, this people are acting on intelligence reports, stop f*oling around

All the crimes in Nigeria can be stopped..

Try and think..

Are aware of the smallest child on the street knows the name of all the bad boys on their street?

Even the parents of the bad boys know their domes are into crooked stuffs..

Another strategy is to create economical opportunities and end corruption..

U have a child of 17 years old and you are supporting Nigerian politicians… Do you even love your children? Do you even care about their future?

It’s obvious u love policticians more than your children..

Dey play..

Time will tell..

Mind u age is just a number..

Nigeria's import bill was 61 billion dollars in 2021, of which refined petroleum products accounted for just 11 billion dollars.

https://oec.world/en/profile/country/nga

My point is the products we import are not what the average Nigerians consume directly regularly..

It’s fuel, chemicals, machines, etc that occupy most of our huge import list..

Other nations too import and they are doing very well.. Some even import more than us..

For eg: Majority of the wheat they import are used for their noodles, etc and not even bread and co..

We also import lot of our industrial equipments, etc..

Our import what ever is not 100% based on what average Nigerians consume.

I don’t know if you understand..

For eg how much is Nigeria spending on shoe importation yearly? Compared to petrol, chemicals, machines, etc..

I hope you know they add all those Dangote and co refinery equipment in our import list, etc..


If I am wrong correct me.

Look at this small boy arguing with his elders.

Mr Man, I deal in statistics, not Beer Parlour analysis, like you.

In 2022, goods valued at a total of 53.61 billion U.S. dollars were imported into Nigeria.

You are the kid..

Most of the goods na fuel and disel..

You can’t even analyze a simple data..

I said get a break down of the data..

If them Tell your Nigerians import $56 billion dollars you go believe am..


Wetin Nigerians one import reach $56 billion dollars?

Our women spend BILLIONS OF NAIRA A YEAR buying that thing they call Brazilian hair or whatever.

IMAGINE if they used all that money to pay local women to create these TRADITIONAL NIGERIAN HAIRSTYLES FOR THEM?

Being Nigeria, the cultural capital of Africa, before you know it, the convention has gone viral across the continent, helpIng to boost economies, by stopping capital flight, and creating millions of jobs for talented traditional hair stylists.

If you don't attach PREMIUM value to your internally generated products and creativity, your currency value can never rise, unless by artificial mechanisms.

It is the value of the DOLLAR, and the EURO, which you use to buy all those foreign products that will continue to rise, NOT the NAIRA.

How many of our women?

May be just 5%.. Most own a few…

This our import thing is blown out of proportion..


I know you are among those that supported the planting of made in Nigeria rice..

What’s the price of rice today?

Nigeria is not a rice country, else we have to import rice from rice countries…

We shud have focused on palm, cashew, cocoa. That’s our own comparative advantage..

Majority of Nigerian states can’t grow rice, so we have to import it to supplement..

Same thing applies to fish, but not meat…

Most of the huge rivers are in the South and those rivers can’t give the nation all our fish demands.

All the Nigerian rice mills will totally collapse in the next 5 - 10-20 years…


Some of you don’t think deep..

Rostikol:
This guy must be drunk.

Have you ever been to Apapa Port?

Don’t judge by what you see at Apapa port..

Deal with facts and numbers..

Check a breakdown of the value of everything Nigeria imports yearly, then compare with our population..

We are in country we’re less than %10 Nigerians own their personal cars..

Our imports is below normal..

What’s the highest price of the shoe in your worst one? If you even have shoe..

Apart from fuel, cars, tech and machines gulp a huge part of what we import…

Even clothes we don’t import it too much.. We’re the money to they by clothes.. May b apart from cheap Ok…Even many people can’t afford that now.

Oga calm down and learn this economics of a thing..

No Dey argue..


Many Nigerians can’t even afford any imported goods… Even medicine..

You are a novice calm down..

Una don turn everything to tribalism..

There is a serious security situation in Lagos.

YOU ARE NOT ''DOING YOUR BEST'' TO BUY NIGERIAN MADE GOODS.

LIKE YOU ARE DOING NIGERIA A FAVOUR.

YOU SHOULD PROUDLY BUY NIGERIAN - MADE STUFF.

STOP PREFERRING ITALIAN SHOES TO NIGERIAN MADE.

YOU WILL SEE SOMEBODY WEARING NIGERIAN MADE SHOES, YOU WILL BE LAUGHING AT HIM.

CALLING HIM LOCAL CHAMPION.

BECAUSE OF YOUR MENTALITY, TRADERS HAVE TO LABEL THEIR STUFF ''MADE IN ITALY'', ''MADE IN GERMANY'', JUST TO GET YOU IDIOTS TO BUY.

YOUR WOMEN PREFER GUCCI BAGS TO NIGERIAN DESIGNED BAGS.

THAT MINDSET THAT NIGERIAN MADE IS INFERIOR MUST CHANGE, OR YOU CAN FORGET ABOUT NAIRA RISING IN VALIUE.

HOW WILL IT RISE?

BY MAGIC?

Continue in your ignorance….

This Naira rising was caused by the president you elected, not because people are not buying made in Nigeria…

They are just using your head..

All those their claims of importation are lies..

We don’t even import anything in Nigeria..

Oga Nigerians are buying Nigerian goods and Nigerians are also manufacturing..

The main problem is not importation, it’s corruption and miss management..

Our politicians and businesses men are just using the importation narrative to play us..

Nigeria is even importing very, very less cos Nigerians don’t have money..


Importation contributes just a little to our problem, cos Many countries import too….

Even the advanced first world countries..


Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa despite our flaws…
