Well we would always have some corruption, but in my opinion, improved tax to gdp ratios would incentivise people to pay more attention to what their government is doing with their money.

A big problem with fighting corruption is that it is hard work . Hard hard work

nairalanda1:
Actually, I'm right.

We are a resource dependent nation..as a result when the price of what we sell goes down, we get into serious issues hence the borrowing.

Also when what we produce falls in production level, we lose income. See Ghana. Because of a disease that has wiped out most of its cocoa crop, it has to pray to mother world bank for a loan.

This does not mean I believe we have a good government. If this government was serious they would have taken us off oil dependency. And began the process of making us an exporter of Industrial goods and services

The problem with Nigeria can be fixed by industrialization, exporting industrial goods and taxing more of our gdp which would help our economy grow, fix unemployment, enable us to earn far more in terms of cash, promote self reliance and reduce corruption ( higher tax level means people have an incentive to hold government responsible at a higher rate)

It's called dutch disease. And I have shown how it can be sorted

Note, it does not mean that I do not believe there is no corruption or that apc is running a good economy. Infact I have just shown you why and how apc is running a bad economy .

Every beautiful economic blueprint you have highlighted will fail because of unbridled corruption and weak institutions we have. We have a very corrupt political class and business elite. My brother, take away corruption and even a layman's economic blueprint centred on Agriculture, security, basic education and due process will thrive because we have the market and hardworking population


But of course, you can disagree with me
Too many missionaries,too few heathens

nairalanda1:
They borrow because

1. Oil revenues are low, due to a combination of low oil prices for NIgeria and massive previous debt

2. Poor tax to gdp ratio.

These people are criminals! After renovating the office, I believe he'll be mining gold in the office to boost the revenue generation of the state

Macnnoli4:
Lol, Bassey Otu from Cross River, I hope his multibillion renovated office can help him repay the debts

idealogical:
Kaduna,


I'm sure El Rufai did not return to office to borrow money..

As seen on the street of social Media. A user posted video of animals killed by a hunter. There's a Warthog, Civet and other unidentified animals in the video.

The camera man had just one job, move the camera around so that we can have a proper view of the hunters kill.

Pandora pathological lair OBI lost and lost big. Just because he won in SE doesn't mean that he won everywhere.
The IPOb terrorist conman went to court and cannot even show the court an ounce of evidence of how he won. He was banking on some useless excuses for them to declare him a winner. Where is that done?
Till today, he has not shown any evidence of how he won, he wants the court to declare him the winner based on his own feelings. What a comedian.

Looting is never a message but a criminal offense that we all should condemn. Imagine a senior advocate that know about law is saying this nonsense.

If only this mumu can walk around Africa and compare the cost of living in most African countries with Nigeria.... Maybe you wouldn't have say this.

The only thing, Tinubu should do now is to increase the minimum wage.... Make The citizens survive themselves.

This nonsense coming out from senior advocate shows the mentality of Nigerians..... how entitled they feel and how liability they are.

Nobody invited him, that's his way of chasing clout

My daddy G O, no scandal whatsoever.

Happy birthday baba Obasanjo llnp.

I will never like this Obi because I see through him and his deceitful ways. Before opening the topic I knew he'll be there to chase his usual clout for political favour. Mtcheww messiah that's not messiaring

Alex Otti is the man of the moment, nobody can call him fake messiah tomorrow because we are seeing what he's doing with our eyes.
