We earn all our forex from crude oil. Once the forex from crude oil is no longer there, other sectors won't get the required forex to import and expand/maintain their operations. And once these other sectors can no longer maintain their current operating level not to talk of expansion, the economy will not grow, hence, recession. Recession simply means our economy is no longer growing.

The situation of the Naira is also as a result of the shortage of forex. The high $/N exchange rate is seriously pushing inflation to an extreme height which in effect had reduce the purchasing power of Nigerians. It had also reduce the growth capacity of other sectors that contributes to the GDP.

If only Jonathan had not squandered the huge foreign reserve and the excess crude savings he inherited, the current government would have gotten something to fall back to, investors ability to continue to invest won't be eroded, Naira won't be this bad and most importantly, we won't be in a recession today.

That is exactly what they told china.
But that country is now the second largest economy in the world and the largest exporter to Africa.
Atleast igbos are producing and learning. What does the rest of Nigeria produce?

u guys are unbelievable! Since wen does refusing to vote for a particular candidate translate to hating the person?so alld ppl u haven't voted are ppl u hate eh? Not ppl u think may not be qualified enuf to steer ur affairs right? And since wen too has it bcom a must 2 vote for sb because he chose ur kinsman as his running mate?? U see igbos don't play such nepotic politics. We aint like yorubas who voted in a fossil (witout an iota of clue as to governance),partly because he paired up wit ur kinsman.do u knw dat ojukwu also contested dat same election u referred to and 'lost woefully' even in anambra stste?
Even if igbos 'hate' buhari,so dat justifies his skewed appointents and federal shortchange of southeast right? So jonathan dat despite the glaring hatred from the north,still did more for them (evn more than his own region) was a fool den?


Finally,..let me state it clearly for u 2 see,..incase u havnt been able 2 read d writ on the wall since,...we are in a recession now because of yorubas. Yorubas voted in a fossil wit zero clue to com and lead us,just to spite igbos. because u felt dat igbos hate buhari and dat buhari will surely shortchange the igbos. That is the recession we are enjoying now.

Me I just tire for that guy and his ilk.... According to the dude and his co-travellers, they believe GEJ is a demi-god and even with the magnetude of the sleaze exposed so far, their shallowness still makes them believe gej was rejected because he was a minority. And then one begins to wonder whether GEJ was from a majority in 2010/2011 when Nigerians from all works of life and tribes/ethnicities rallied around him and made him president.

NOETHNICITY:
ur frustration is really epic. As weird as ur perception so it is dangerously shallow.
Did the so-called pple u labelled afonja not over-look the tribalism u talked about to reject Buhari in 2011?
Did the afonja pple not rally around GEJ when he was sidelined during the period Yardua was sick and supported him till he was appointed president in 2010?
Also did the afonja pple not overlook the tribalism u talked about to vote for GEJ in 2011?
Personally I'm frm the SS and I supported GEJ in 2011. But toward the end of his tenure I gave up on him seeing what a big disappointment he was. What did GEJ do for the SS pple with all the unprecedented oil boom money he made, apart frm enriching militants? GEJ govt made a whooping N54 trillion from oil boom and what does he ve to show for it?
If PMB govt makes thesame amount of money with nothing to show I ll despise him also.
The only tribal bigot here is u. Get over election loss my friend and move on with ur life.

The limit of your brain power is aptly captured in your lame attempt at tribal labelling; you think everyone is equally shallow-minded and petty enough to follow the ethnic/tribal route in everything, hence you already think you know exactly where I am from just based on my political choice.

Meanwhile for persons within this your weird ideological realm, everything must have a tribal/ethnic/clannish colouration; hence you believe everyone who opposed the return of GEJ's government (even with the putrid sleaze it represented) must have done so for ethnic reasons. Wonderful way to reason!

obailala:
Tell these your tales to the birds, the ipob agitation gained prominence only because GEJ lost the freaking election, not because of all these trashy theories you and many other buhari haters are giving here. Obj locked up Uwazuruike of massob in a cage for God knows how long but nobody raised an eyebrow. GEJ also sanctioned the arrest of several massob men and they were treated like pieces of trash and not a single person cared; one wouldn't forget in a hurry the case of several incarcerated massob members who were summarily executed by the police extrajudicially in the Ezu river case but nobody raised an eyebrow. Nnamdi kanu had been out there spewing trash on his radio waves but nobody ever took him serious not until gej lost an election and the hatred for buhari from the very first day automatically turned millions into die-hard admirers of the hitherto ignored kanu... once again, tell these your buhari hatred stories to the birds.... and may I remind you that this isnt an ipob thread please.

obailala:
Are you lost?.. can't you see the title of this thread?... Why don't you kindly go and open an ipob thread please and then you can discuss your ipob matters there..

VulgarVulvas:
Mr. Man stop spewing trash.

Why is the SW celebrating cocoa instead of oil palm?

I have looked into the Report of 1911 (check page 16) and you will see an average earnings for the past 5yrs up starting from 1907 to 1911 and Nigeria earned an average of just €85,000 from cocoa. See it for yourself.


So how come You made €900,000 from palm export and we only hear you guys beating your flat chest about cocoa?

Stop your lies Abeg !

Can you point to Palm Oil house in Ibadan ?

You can lie for satan I swear!

And finally cocoa was also farmed in present day Delta state (my state ), Akwa Ibom, Rivers and also Calabar.

So if we go by your own logic then Niger Delta made half of that paltry 5yr average earnings of €85,000.

You people should stop giving Yorubas a bad name with your jealousy, envy and outright lies.

All I see on this thread are just a bunch of pathetic wailers doing what they know how to do best; wail and throw insults foolishly... Nigeria is currently in a dire situation and needs all the money it can get, borrowing has since been mapped out as the way forward but even getting the lenders to release money seems to have been a problem. Everyone knows borrowing from the imf/worldbank isnt favourable and the nation has tried to avoid that situation. But with things getting tougher and people going hungry, the govt seems to have run oit of options and may have to eventually resort to these same exploitative lot.

Now how anyone who is a Nigerian sees this unfortunate development as something to be excited over is beyond me; probably just getting another opportunity to throw insults around is what excites some folks. Such wastes!

IM not looking down on him but forget it bro. the way i look at life is different from how people see it, like i earlier said, the house its ok for his level, but as for me, that house is not even fit for boyz quarters. i need the c-ronaldo kind of mansion and that what i will get, its all about the mentality bro.
