Politics / Re: Economic Crisis: Obasanjo Urges Devolution Of Power, Resources To States by Mccullum: 9:13am On Feb 25
Devolution of power to federating states from FG is part of the suggestive solutions.

Nigeria also needs to reform our legislation from bicameral legislature to unicameral legislature which is more costless than present one.

For Obasanjo, I think he's passing message to the north.

Anyway, I don't know anything about leaking of documents in regards to president planned business visits to Qatar.

FG does not need reactions on all information which didn't emanated from any FG institutions.

Some time it's not necessary.

This US hater, I have told you to change your moniker to WriterRussia or PutinAssLicker.



Come what may, America remains the number one country in the world in everything; from technology to economy to migration choice to education to military, wealth, intelligence, innovation, science and everything you can think of. You Muslim fanatics hating on America are wasting your precious time.

Is Russia a Muslim state? No.

What is the benefit of Muslims in supporting of Russia?

It's about choices, if you like US defend her with your facts. Gaslighting Islam doesn't hold water on this issue.

Mafia Putin.

I'm always shocked to see people supporting that man

Looks like the only metric of good governance in Russia and in the Arab world is how much you are able to show that you hate America and Western Europe.

Do that effectively and see yourself pass the good governance test

It's not about hatred, it's about clash of interest, America is not saint too. US still looking ways to get Snowden and Greenwald that leaked sensitive pentagon secret, had it Snowden didn't ran to Russia he would have been or assassinated.

Navany was accused of working with CIA against Russia. No nation will allow saboteurs. Any one of such will be labeled as traitor. Death sure for such person from the state.

Both US, Russia and Arab states are not different from one another, it's just a clash of identity without being under hegemony of one another and still one is aiming to destroy one for the interest of being the head in international power politics.

This is good news though but to maintain it, government needs consistent effort on it .

Other proferring solutions; such as solving of insecurity challenges, extensive farming, targeting Nigeria to become a products producing country.

This will make Naija to become exporting country and that will command inflow of dollars in Nigeria which will make Naira stronger.

Business / Re: How Binance P2P Contributes To The Plummeting Naira Value by Mccullum: 9:49am On Feb 22
Nbote:


Now this is an analysis of someone who genuinely wants to have a conversation. Yes your analysis just broke down how many of these fake ads hike prices on Binance but then attributing it to the freefall of the naira is am overkill. Where do BDC operators get their USD from if not the banks? Where do banks get their USDs from if not CBN. The CBN sells dollars to banks who inturn sell at a profit. The CBN allowed itself to be used as the wallet of the political elites and that's what we are suffering from. The manipulation isn't in Binance, the Manipulation is by the same political elites who have amassed so much monies to influence whatever they like.

You and writer of the post saying same thing from different angles.

Politics / Re: Bwala To President Tinubu: Ban Use Of Dollars For Local And International Trade by Mccullum: 9:59pm On Feb 21
emkz:
These are just temporary measures and are bound to fail. The forex market in Nigeria is like a hydra-headed snake. Cut one head; as you face another head, the first head will grow back. Cut the damn neck! In other words, let the CBN address the root of the problem instead of pretending they don't know.

Since last week, dollars injected into the forex market are mopped up.

Who exactly are those mopping up the forex?

What economic activity is tied to the raid of the forex?

Ribadu claims the activities of speculators are responsible for the hike in dollar rates.

My question to Ribadu is: why are the speculators not afraid of the government?

For many years, bank MDs have been accused of buying forex from CBN and the forex goes into the black market through back channels, for example, there are vulturistic abokis sitting in banking halls trying to buy off dollars from customers.

Who regulates those abokis?

If the $10billion the vice president said would come into the system enters, it would be evacuated by the same speculators which would not solve the problem.

My observation is that CBN has lost complete control of the forex market and are being regulated by the BDCs and population instead of CBN being in control. All over the world, forex trading is heavily regulated by governments through central banks.

What I also observed is that the dollars are mopped up by those who don't need them but are keeping them for a profit. Therefore, let CBN take complete control of the forex market through the following measures:

(1) Deregister all unlicensed BDCs. That market is heavily unregulated and until they are faced squarely by the authorities, the practice of the naira dying will not stop.

(2) Stop selling dollars to commercial banks as it is clear that they have failed in meeting their obligations to customers with the dollars. People who approach the banks for PTA/BTA and school fees are directed to the BDCs. Why do BDCs have dollars and banks don't? Even with banks, some people still approach the CBN to transfer their school fees. Infact, it was found that the banks had $5billion in their vaults. How come no one has been punished when these same banks created artificial scarcity to push people to BDCs?

(3) All banks should be compelled to show a statement of how they used the dollars they received from the CBN from the last two years. At least it would give us some ideas of what disappeared through the black market.

(4) CBN needs to carry out a tsunami on the banking industry. Use some bank MDs known for the forex fraud as examples by dismissing them for breaking the law.

(5) Once all these measures are taken, the CBN must protect all forex coming into the country to ensure the problems we currently have are not iterated.

In summary, CBN needs to take drastic measures to regulate the market.

There are other measures that can be taken to get the dollars from those who have stored them. Whether the CBN would have the will is something else. The Nigerian forex market is like those who pirate music.

Kill the black market for forex.

God bless you.
