Excuses!!!

We just don't earn enough FX for both the NEEDS & WANTS of this nation!!!! What is readily & easily available is never scarce nor costly!!! Increase exports to earn more! Every other thing is just mere wishful thinking!!

Kondomatic:
Did Nigerians vacate other countries and return home before they got their independence?
Point of correction.. not cos I'm interested in this yeye thread but just felt like a lil education won't come amiss since most of you tend to confuse secession with gaining independence.....

Nigeria was never one country with its colonial masters, Nigeria was colonised by only one country: Britain & it wasn't an acrimonious separation......

An example (may not be apt but it comes close & it will be easy for y'all to grab) is a boy/ young man leaving the village to come to Lagos or any city to "SERVE" oga, there will come a time that he will be granted freedom to start his own biz & it's that same oga that will give him the initial capital to take off... Imagine if everyday he fights, abuse & sabotages the main business venture & walks away...... would he be able to go lie on the man's couch, eat his food & enjoy his hospitality again ?

Don't mind me, I've been trying to tell myself to face left & leave the clown to his deceptive spammy ads but misinformation will keep thriving if one continue to unlook...

IMTOs rate remain basically same and it's still baffling to me why that is, despite the CBN's efforts..

CBN don dey do like woman wen dey c period, too volatile.
Really!!! Stereotype much!! sad



One day you hear 306, another day you hear 350-370, another day you hear 400-420. Anyway, I like where the direction is going, e b like say reality is setting in.

CBN hand don weak, news now na say them 1 increase sales from IMTOs to BDCs, while they ration sales of wholesale forwards (money coming from reserves). Party don end. Everybody in the CBN is sober now.
Here i need a bit of enlightenment but as per the highlighted , could it possibly be interpreted to mean that outbound MG & WU will be almost impossible to send from DMBs ? Since what they send out are usually inbound remittances from same operator.... could you shed more light on the implication of this, i get it a fair bit but still have gaps to fill...

In a publication i read yesterday, Bismarck Rewane opined that CBN will likely chill out on pump action cos forwards are maturing next week or so... Manufacturers are about to get FX they paid for months ago right?



The CBN now wants to use panic to quell dollar demand. Unfortunately, it's having the opposite effect.

-Lord
I still believe the 500s won't happen again but 450 looks like it could be a possibility if oil price doesn't get to the $58-$60 band sooner than soon.

Reserve still above $25bn, CBN never tire... smiley

Jokes apart, gist i heard (could be true, fit be lie, i have no proof either ways) is that CBN is ok with 400-420 but know crashing it way way way down is the only way to ensure speculators/hoarders don't force it pass 500 again... Now, there is an element of risk in the unwholesome practise..

That 520 range really sent a chill down the spine of the powers that be & they had to quickly arrest the situation before power run leave dem & God being merciful oil price also coperate with naija god....

Oil is presently trading in the low $50s so CBN is using sense follow the thing now.. interventions will still be done but the sporadic rate of the past weeks already hit the reserves small, they can't continue with it less they cause more F ups than the one they are trying to clean up.

Abagworo:
No Sir they said they want it to revolve around 380. Let us see how it goes but they can bring it down to 350 in a week.
Not true...they never did...350 will mean they have to intervene intermittently which is suicidal...Underground gist is that they are cool with 400-420 so that reserves doesn't kick the bucket... The 520 rate was not only scary, it was capable of toppling the present admin so they had to arrest it.

Since nobody has mentioned this popular slang, let me do so.

How can such massive mismanagement be going on under the administration of Mr Body Language? Or are we still under the so-called Ineffectual Buffoon?

Where are those critics when you need them?
Nothing can ever satisfy you lots... Hatred, lack of focus and bitterness have combined forces & robbed most of you of all sense of objectivity & clear thinking.. It is your sort that will still bleat upandan about "seperation of power"!!! Chanting "leave states alone", "no interference".

So Buhari is supposed to micro manage state governors as well? May God help you think straight!! Oshisko!! undecided

Why on earth are the governors operating a single account? huh


For what intent & purpose? If we are to go by this publication, APC, PDP, Muslims , Christians and non believers somehow managed to put ALL their differences aside to unite under one single common cause?

Business › Re: We’ll Push Dollar To N305—CBN Boasts by modath(f): 8:09pm On Mar 29, 2017
LordAdam16:
Madam, the CBN knows the party is ending. They don't want a replay of 28/02/17 to 08/03/17 to occur. So, they're giving early indications that they are still on the offensive.

I wouldn't pass it off completely as hogwash. Who the gods want to destroy they first make mad.

But what I sense is panic on the part of Okarofor, the CBN, and the FG. Unlike in the early days of this month when they started their second round of intervention, the oil price was rising, currency reserve was rising, and speculators still had lots of dollars in hand.

Now, the oil price have fallen, currency reserve is falling, and speculators have reduced their exposure in a big way. Seriously, speculators wouldn't make big losses now. They'd solely be eating up every cheap dollars they can lay their hands on.

If the CBN wants to, they can inject $1.5b to reduce the parallel rate to N305/$1. We all know they can't go lower, and as they've said, that's their target. This is the first time they've actually made that known in public. However, if they wanted to reduce it further, IMTO's will cease sending money to Nigeria. Investors will scream blue murder. Foreign remittance will stop increasing. The pressure on the foreign reserve will increase multiple fold. And FDI will halt completely (not that anything was coming in anyway).

When parallel rate appreciates to N305/$1 and there's no where else to go. There'd be only one direction for the rate to go. The fall will be the biggest fall in recent history.

I can't wait.

It's clear that the CBN and FG are masochists. And Nigerians wouldn't get pity, because it appears they too want to listen to blues.

-Lord
I refuse to panic!!! I'm going to believe CBN has 9lives. cool

Read my post again, Mo.

It was about optimism about 'improvement' in power and refining capabilities of our present government refineries; not solution, nor nirvana. Pessimism is allowed too. I have my reasons for posting what I did (just same way I called N350 to the dollar about a month ago even though you vehemently disagreed), I just don't sit and think or hope them . . . bookmark and let's revisit in 6-9 months.


P.S. Diaspora remittances at say $40b in a year when rates harmonize plus selling oil at $30 per Barrel brings in as much Forex as selling just crude at over $75 per Barrel 'if' rates harmonize.


There are actually a few government programs designed to bring in more of those remittances through housing schemes for guys overseas and some other means.

Well, let's revisit in 6-9 months.

I agree with "optimism" about improvement cos that's all all have going for us right now... All the permutations leave me weary cos none has ever worked!! NEVER! Not once... Just builds ones hopes & walks off into the sunset.

BTW, parallel market rebounded by N5 today, doesn't make much difference but it sends the wrong message... we both know what it means... lipsrsealed

P.S... That Abokifx thingy isn't correct, it's one guy (was a NLer for a while) that saw an opportunity & riding the wave... checked nairametrics as well, same thing!! Doubt Feyi Fawehinmi is in cahoots with saboteurs..
