Correct
He is not correct.

The "economic strength" is a term used by the IMF to deceive us.

Most of the rules where written to favor only the white people.

Its all about knowing our rights and fixing the exchange rate in our favor,

Use your head.

Some of these Arab countries we worship are not better than us economically,Even SA is not better than us.

They are just downplaying the achievements of Nigeria,

Think outside the box.

The bank of Ghana removed the last two digits in their currency.
But that country is getting better and better than us every day.If the removal of the last 2 digits as you claimed is worthless it would have backfired on them.

Nigeria should stop devaluting their country,no matter what.

If countries like China,Japan and co will break all the rules for the sake of the survival of their economy we should do the same.

We shouldn't make the IMF and co our slave masters.

FG should revalute the naira and keep it stable for years.

The countries in Africa play to easy with the laws associated with inflation and deflation.

We are too quick to reduce the value,ex rates of our currencies after every little set back and do nothing to restore our ex rates the moment we overcome our obstacles.

If the Naira will remain at this ex rate for 20 years many Nigerian willl be free from poverty.

u're poor in economics cos u don't know d diff between "exchange rate" and "value of a currency". And yes, d nigerian naira has more "value" than d ghanaian cedis.
How?

Value is tied to price in biz/econs my brother.

In some cases the ex rates dont mean higher value in reality,but the naira/cedi case is diff.



eg Gold is higher than silver.

No wise man will keep in money in an economy where depreciation of her currency is endless.

No wise business man will keep the Naira because its highly unstable,they will opt for the cedi instead.

The exchange rate of Gh has sid it all sir.

Foreign investors will pick Gh over Ng any day.

The fact that you spend more Naira to buy the Cedi meanS the Cedi is of a higher value than Naira,else their will be no need for such a transaction.

Ghana redominated their currency by removing 0000.....That is not an economic. Improvement...
If they redominate the Naira poverty in Nigeria may reduce by almost 30%, and if it remains stable poverty will dissapear gradually from the country.

One of the reason why Nigeria complain of endless poverty is because the naira keep loosing its value.Whatever Nigerians save and invest in will be eroded by the forces of poverty disguised as hyper inflation.No wonder Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world.

The multimillionaire with 5 million naira in his account in 1991, is now poorer because of the forces of inflation.

Ghana predominating their currency is a big economic improvement.The moment they made that move,MANY companies relocated from Nigeria to Ghana.Today Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world,while Ghana is growing above that class.

That great revaluation move attracted lots of foreign investments.

So its a big achievement for Ghana.

Pls focus on the msg.Years ago the Naira was higher.Although thats not an excuse.

The value of the Jap Yen @ y1 to N3.59 is shocking despite their huge scale development.The value of the Japanese currency should be higher na.

These guys are manipulating their currency to their favor,while our Nigerian leaders are manipulating our currency to the favor of the west.

Bottomline:Nations can fix their exchange rates their way.

PoliticsThe Truth About Exchange Rates And The Performance Of Nations by LikeAking(op):
Good day every body.

Here is the shocking truth,the exchange rate of a nation/value of their currency is not tied to the performance of the nations economy.

The economic health of a nation can not determine the value of their currenecy.

A country can be doing very well and still decide to have a very low exchange rate/low value of their currency.A good example of such nations are China,Japan and Korea.On the other hand a country can be performing averagely or badly and still fix a very high value for their local currency.Ghana is a good example of such a nation and many Arab/northern African countries.

The Japanese economy is way,way better than the Nigerian economy yet the ex rate of their currency doesnt reflect this reality.

The Chinese,Japanese,Koreans have decided to maintain a lower exchange rate that doesn't correlate with their economic development/success, because of trade reasons.These countries are economically developed countries so the value of the currency should be in the same league with the Us,Britain,but they choose the other routes because it will favor their economy.

The Chinese and co, intentionally maintained a low value of their currencies in order to out sell their rivals in Europe ans America.

The Nigerian economy is better than Ghanaian economy yet their currency has a higher value than ours,because they are wiser with their economics.

We have been made to believe that the reason why the value Naira keeps plummeting is because of the poor performance of the nation,but the truth is the Nigerian economy handlers are a big economic disaster.Nigeria is not doing badly as most people think,our privates sectors are one of the best performers in Africa.

Despite our poor economic condition as they claim we can still fix a very,very reasonable exchange rate for the country.We must use the economic laws to our advantage,not to our disadvantage.

In a world where nations fix the value of their currency,we leaders should act wisely and fix a reasonable exchange rate that will remain stable for decades.

Handlers of the Nigerian economy have been hurting the nation with their continuous acceptance of the devaluation of the Naira. If the handlers of the Ghanaian economy are wise enough to make wise decisions our own should not be different.

Having lots of degrees doesnt make a man economically wise/honest.The so called academia's must be relegated to the class rooms for Nigeria must progress,because they got their certificates from the class rooms,not through practice.Kindly note:Most of the richest men in the world,who are impacting the global economy with their innovative ideas dont posses much of all these class room degrees.

Its obvious the "Professor" titles dont bring professional Nigerian solutions to the country.

The Nigerian currency must not be devalued when ever their is a small economic problem.
Nigeria is still trying economically,check our various privates sectors you will find development,innovation and progress.

RomanceRe: How Do I Turn Him Down And Not Hurt Him? by LikeAking: 7:05pm On Sep 02, 2020
Berryli:
Few weeks to my 25th birthday, last year, I ran into my Neighbour and we exchanged numbers, then the chatting began, we became friends and he offered to take me out on my birthday but It didn't happen.

Fast forward to the lockdown, I would go visit him we would chat and he appreciated my company as he was alone. He eventually started to make moves, getting all touchy which got me a little surprised and uncomfortable since as friends that was improper, which got me thinking if he wants more than friendship.

He has a great career, intelligent and all but not my spec, and I'm not attracted to him. We are very different people, socially and even our views about life. I enjoy his company but that's all there is. As a result if I use to visit twice in a week, I reduced it to once in two weeks and eventually monthly, and reduced the chats just to not give him the wrong impression.

He stylishly refer to me in future as his wife. What do I do? Is he starting to have feelings for me and how do I stylishly turn him down since he hasn't asked me out or do i wait for him to do so? cos there are people who just draw close and start dating without d while toasting stuff or is it just his flesh loosing control, which I doubt cos I try to be as decent as possible wen visiting him.

Do I just go with the flow since I'm currently not in a relationship? But won't that be me deceiving him and myself cos I don't like him in that way. or I'm over thinking the whole thing?

BusinessRe: How I Was Defrauded At Alaba International Market Today. by LikeAking: 7:02pm On Sep 02, 2020
mabeni:
embarassedi went to Alaba international market to buy a set of Tokunbo Home Theatre. Luckily/ unfortunately for me i asked around and i was directed to a shop where i would find my choice. I got to the shop and i specifically told them I want a SAMSUNG Home Theater and the search began. They tested 3 diferrent sets but the last one got my attention and I asked for the price.

The seller (shop owner) told me it was 55k and i negotiated it to 25k and he asked me pay. I requested for his account details but he declined saying he doesn't take transfers. I quickly went to use POS, came back and asked for the SAMSUNG SETS i had priced be tested to avoid foul play. It was tested and i confirmed it. I paid, receipt was issued to me but without going through my receipt, I wrote my name and signed because i never suspected scam.

Now, it was time for me to leave with my purchases and the boy boy told me "the engine/DVD to the home theater i bought does not support or work with electricity but strictly works for only generator ". I asked him to repeat himself and he did. The statement didn't make sense to me. He then suggested he could swap the engine/DVD of the SAMSUNG Home Theater i bought for another one that uses electricity. I sensed foul play and asked him why he didn't tell me these before making payment.

Note: the owner of the shop had gone out when boy boy was telling me this.
Luckily, he came back to meet us arguing. I narrated what his boy told me about the sound system they sold for me he affirmed to it that the engine/DVD doesn't use electricity. I got confused and demanded for a refund. These guys refused. Insisting I take another DVD...i refused either that i preferred what i bought. They refused me going with what I bought. This infuriated a lot of noise and here comes in an elderly man who claimed to be the landlord of the shop.

He asked me what was wrong, i told him and he slapped the Boy boy. At this point, i knew I was being scammed but was helpless as well. It was just only me against Alaba boys. The elderly man asked me to calm down that he was there to help me out bla bla bla and requested to see the receipt that was issued to me me. Lo and behold, the subwoofer and the other 3 small speakers was not included in the receipt. They only wrote the engine/DVD they claimed doesn't use nepa light and even boldly put NO WOOFER & NO SPEAKERS. (indirect or indirectly, i only paid 25k for just the DVD player )

The truth was, i never saw these errors before the arrival of the elderly man. he pointed out the errors and finally told me they don't refund money in ALABA that it was all a trick and the trick was for me to pay any amount cos the sound system i bought was more than 25k that i would have to add more money for me to go with it. I insisted i don't have more money to add and they insisted i take a Chinese product. I no gree.

To cut it short, i finally found out the elderly man was part of them. His job was to distract and calm their victim down. At the end of it all, i only got the subwoofer and 3 small speakers. The ENGINE/DVD was not given to me.

This was my sad experience today in the hands of some heartless Nigerians.

That is the face of the SHOP OWNER. TRUE CALLER shows his name as BEN.
