The real clown and ignoramus here are both of you. Tell me the price of crude oil back then and now. That GDP didn't represent real manufacturing and production, just oil boom. Today, the price of crude oil is nothing to write home about but we're still on top. The question you should have asked yourself is, why? Because Buhari's economic policy restricted excessive importation and tried to make Nigerians look inward and produce as much as they could.
Now, if you are really interested in this, let's dig up the contributions from crude oil for both 2014 and 2020. Then take a look at GDP from other sectors excluding oil for both 2014 and 2020. Only then you will realise that you don't know anything about economy

It is you who is the Ignoramus here. Not the chao you were quoting.

The share of oil and gas in 2014 rebasing was about 9%. It should even be lower than that by now.

The rebasing decreased the share of oil in the GDP of the country, so the high GDP after the rebasing could not have been due to "oil boom": it was due to bringing newer sectors like telecommunications to the calculations and also including income ans expenditure in the computations instead of just production

You guys should stop talking about oil prices. It is silly.

This Govt has retrogressed on every economic index. If it is a lie, i dare you to name just one in which there has been an increase. And that sort of performance isnt due to falling oil prices. Absolutely not

uptimumOne23:
Then it's safe to say those African countries are also suffering from the drop in crude oil price and again with the covid-19 lockdown like we are.

Buhari and that's done well in managing and growing our economy

Crude Oil prices...their greatest refrain!!!

Most African countries do not produce oil, Bros.

Buhari could not have managed the economy better when EVERY (i mean All) economic index under him(GDP size, growth rate, Inflation rate, Poverty rate, Employment rate, Foreign Exchange, Flow of Investment, Balance of Payment, Value of import and Export, stock etc etc etc) have gone SOUTH under him.

There are just certain arguments you guys should never make aloud

authority2006:
What was the price of crude oil in 2014 and now? The fact that we're still on top amidst plummeted oil price means that Buhari economic policy had a positive impact on our GDP.

Lolz.... Ignoramus

What is the link of crude oil price and GDP size?
Do you even know the percentage of Oil and Gas to the GDP of Nigeria?

Shift joor

And plzz, do not ever talk of "Buhari economic policy" except you wanna get your finger really burnt

favor914:
The $90 billion dollars decrease, has to do with the devaluation of the Naira.

That is not fully true.

There are 2 recessions i.e at least 4 consecutive negative growth in the economy( that is a CONTRACTION in the economy). Coupled with the fact that even those months when we witnessed growth, they were low growth(in fact, growths that was lower than the population rate). In such situations, you are bound to see a decrease in the effective GDP size.

Even the devaluation, which contributed, is actually a symptom of the poor state/growth of the economy in the last few years.

Afamed:
Long Live Federal Republic of Nigeria

Long Live PMB

Long live PYO

Look at this Zoombie, lolz

They are all coming out

uptimumOne23:
You are a confused being. If the government has failed to create enabling environment for business to thrive then how come you are claiming our economy is being driven by private sector investment and not the government.

This has nothing to do with this Govt i.e that we are still the largest economy in Africa.

The current Nigerian GDP size is $422.9billion while it was $510billion in 2014.
That is actually a decrease of almost $90billion under Buhari.

The only reason we are still the biggest is cos other close African countries no try.

So stop praising Buhari. It makes you look very ignorant

Simplyleo:
I disagree with this ewedu Ibadan Express report.

Tinubu trying to convince us that bubu is working, but as a dedicated drinker of lamidi cownu's urine I know Tinubu is a liar.

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and lamidi cownu are all aware that our online country is the largest economy in the world.

Las las, ipob pigs are brainless.

Lolz....you are only foooling yourself with your attempt at "sarcasm".

I hope you know that this has nothing to do with your lord, Buhari. Nigeria was already the biggest economy years before he became President. In fact, at the current $422.9billion, the size of the economy has actually decreased in real and relative sense since Buhari became President(which is no surprise since we have had 2 recessions and very low growth since).

Bros, so you still dey support Buhari? Shame no dey catch you?

The catholic Church of Nigeria just called the present Nigerian Govt EVIL.

Interesting times in Nigeria indeed

Very useless Gov

I no know between him and Buhari, who useless pass?

bigjackass:
he has a point. How can you be having sex regularly and be broke when you can be paid handsomely for the same sex

There is a huge difference

tsdarkside:
abegi....thunda fire your englishitt....

Is English unislamic/haram perhaps?

I guess your bigoted mind thinks so

tsdarkside:
park,mbok....

people like you didnt make soo much noise when that otuoke moroon was still in charge and things were bad too....park....!!

boko declared a nation in nigeria back then....official....!!
many were displaced....and you are here ranting nonesense now....

Is that you cannot write in simple English?

How educated are you sef?

Coronabirus:
PMB doesn't have any cause in judiciary and legislature because, judiciary's appointment is subject to recommendation of NJC while Legislators seat depend mainly on the party with majority and how the members are spread across the nation. we've 6 zones out of which SE and SS exclude themselves from NASS big positions politically due to the little or no number of their Presence in the caucus expected to lead the arm of the govt. This is the main reason why since NW has President NE got Senate President while speaker goes to SW despite them having VP which should have moved to either SS or SE but political miscalculation failed the structure of the two zones.
I advise u to go back to history and check previous govts appointments before shouting marginalisation.

What you are saying makes little sense historically (and it is funny you are asking me to consult same).

Even at those times when particular zones did not vote for tbe sitting president, they were never totally excluded from national assembly top seats. For eg, when GEJ won 2011 elections with little support from the NW and NE(who massively voted for Buhari then), the few members of these zones still got positions in NA.

And by the way, the President is key to top appointments in the national assembly. They are political positions shared by the party. And he is the leader of the party and Presidents always has interest in who hold those positions.

By tbe way, it is noted how you did not respond to other areas in that comment. It is telling

tsdarkside:
park....!!
am not northerner....!!

but i see through your islamaphobia....!!

go and bark at a tree....!!

Islamophobia? Where in my comment was any reference to religion made? I hope you are not sight-challenged.

Wait!!! You are not a northener(??) but you have been running around the thread, passionately defending solid arguments made as to the nepotism of the present Govt towards the north and the parasitic position of the north, because you think these arguments is anti-Islam cos they concern the north? Cos you are a Muslim?

Is that how much a slave you are to religion?

Smdh

Redcrafton:
Nigeria has never had all the arms of government and top agencies going to one region as the following and more wen to the north.

Executive

Prison
Customs
Immigration
AGF
SFG
NCC
SEC
NPC
NITDA
EFCC
Federal Character Commission FCC
Etc

Never!!

tsdarkside:
how is North parasitic....??

that is a very rude thing to say....

are all northerners politicians....??

Are you also honestly arguing that this Buhari administration has skipped appointments of the main power positions to almost the exclusive preserve of the north?

By tbe way, the north is actually parasitic.
It has been like that since before the independence of Nigeria(with exception of only a short period of time probably). It is the creation of a terrible northern elite class and not necessarily the people of the north. And it is not an insult. It is the TRUTH. It is a truth that you should be ashamed of and disgusted about as a northern youth and not defend. I know that if i was a northerner, it is something i would seriously fight against. It is a weak position and one of tbe reasons northern Nigeria has some of tbe worst socioeconomic parameters any where in the world(poverty rate, unemployment rate, number of children out of school, hunger index, terrorism index, literacy rate, etc).

I make this statement without a single hatred to the north, as you may have seen from my comments on this forum. But I am truly confused as to how educated young northerners can not see it and get disgusted enough to want to change the narrative.

Coronabirus:
I don't disagree abt him given sensitive position to Northerners but I want u to know that there are more Southerners than Northerners in his entire appointments and why when previous Presidents were in powder and all those positions were in South nobody has ever raised the dust?
That's the question, when southerners were in power similar structure was done and all of them kept quite!

The sensitive positions is where tbe real power is.

That those positions in the Presidency, Executive, Legislature, Judiciary, Security, Finance, etc, is totally in the hands of one section of this country, is what people are calling nepotism ans bigotry. Nobody is a foool you know

This has NEVER happened before in the histroy of the country, from any President from any part of the cojntry.

I dont get why some of you are even arguing this.

It is time for Trump to be shown the way out.

There are some Leadership that disgusts me.

Byebye

The incompetence of the handlers of the President buggles the mind and is telling!!!

How do you allow this kinda video to evdr come out at this time?

This is the worst set of President's men in the history of Nigeria

Teejay13:

And am talking about your bad bosses that sent you. Not half-lings like you

NoIgboSoundTueh:
Thunder faya all the useless Igbo thugs in that video
They should carry their motherfucking protests to the east.
Yorubas will resist any second attempts at causing untold destruction in their lands

The protest has started in Osogbo as i type now. As core Yoruba as they come.

Go and tell Tinubu and Lagos APC who sent you that the Nigerian Youths are not interested in them

We want the entire current political infrastructure to fall.

We are tired.

Go and tell them

Basicend:
The hoodlums and yahoo ones have finished spending their looths.

Go and tell them

Justice35:
No buhari supporter have the moral right to call anybody "incompetent"

Hehehe....

I tell you.

JAMO84:
CNN destroyed Iraq with the fake news about tones of atomic bombs. 20 years later, thousands of Iraqi Muslim brothers, sisters and children murdered by the American terrorist government and they haven't found a single bomb.


CNN destroyed Libya with their multiple fake news about human right abuses. 10 years later, the whole world regret supporting the American terrorist government to kill Gadafi. The destruction of Iraq, Libya and Syria is what led to the emergence of ISIS. CNN is a Criminal News Network but we the patriotic Nigerians will not give them and their PDP Dundees the luxury of setting our country on fire. While they continue to dwell in the stupidity of their fake news, we shall continue to counter them with the wisdom of the true news.




I AM DONE TALKING

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is how you know a paid Govt hack!

Shameless things!!!!

The salvation of the north from their rapacious elites would only happen by the northerners themselves.

Is this article an example of such?

travelwaka:
There are about four places where you can do Kayaking in Lagos

1. La champagne Tropicana beach
2. Omu Resort
3. Lagos Kayak at Ikoyi
4. Kampari Tours in Lekki

The Cost of Kayaking varies from one destination to another. Between 500 at La champagne to about 4,500 at Kamapari tours

My first experience was at La champagne beach, I loved the experience but La champagne is a 3 hours journey. The second experience outside La campagne was at Lagos Kayak with the Lagos Google guide team. It was another beautiful experience. We moved from Ikoyi towards Lekki and Victoria Island.

The third one was with Kampari Tours and I will be sharing more pictures from the event

Check Out www.travelwaka.com for more exciting travel content and don't forget to follow us on IG for www.instagram.com/travelwaka_tours

I have used Kampari Tours previously.

Really good experience and good service if i recall.

Let me see if i can get their link on Instagram

Update: This is https://kamparitour.com/
