I want Nigeria to sell more than just oil

Wow your really saying having mines and factories closed and the infrastructure being bombed out by terrorists leads to insecure economies no wayyyyyy

There is no point for the Nigerian government to subsidize or take away funding for corporations if the Nigerian market itself isn’t growing as small markets mean small potential profits and likewise corporations become what they’re like in the USA and become a drain on taxes constantly begging for more government money than contributing to the economy. I’m glad leaders that aren’t buhari realized this and are funding more roads and rails not just between provinces but neighbouring states like niger Ghana and Togo

But this site isn’t popular, it’s the 7th most native made website popular in nigeria, your thinking of a circle of idiots endlessly spamming sectarian and tribal threads away from the section of this website they’re supposed to be simply because they’re bored and have nothing better to do

BigSarah:
Majority of Nigerians are in support of his policies and style

No one supports buhari, people support local governments like Lagos and Abuja mayors but buhari spent his time in power by showing open support for terrorists and encouraging policies that led to inflation and civil unrest, the sooner he’s gone the better this country becomes

Like we even enforce immigration laws in this dumbass continent anyways, pretty much any dude can get into this place and Bleep things up however they like and an African man won’t do anything about it

When the hell has cutting funding for revenue producing assets ever led to any form of societal development, don’t fucking cut that unless those same dipshits expect to fund industry that can cover the costs of whatever the bleeps about to happen

400 billion in usd… what in the ever loving Bleep would anyone in this country much less the government need that kind of money for in practicality? we’re poor but there’s a limit to how much money is actually needed to run the country before it just becomes a matter of excessive spending for the sake of hedonistic virtue

Islam is decaying more around the planet as time passes

Solar is awful, doesn’t last long and constantly needs sunlight and no clouds to function properly, hydro is a much safer and long lasting source of energy

Why not get a gun or knife?

To answer your question in a genuine manner yes the economy recovered well after 2020 and were seeing a lot less inflation compared to before, in the mean time a lot of government investment has gone into road, electricity and infrastructure in general and likewise your seeing the effects of this with better access to food and other junk. Expect more of that as time passes especially since we pretty much overproduce construction materials at this point

Wtf are you rambling on about

I don’t care about the west as long as they stay away from us

2MW… that’s only enough for 1500 homes in a country of hundreds of millions… that’s nothing…

Thanks now rent can be even more expensive than it already is ))

Who counted them ?

Checked stats online

Ammishaddai:
Keep dreaming . The average Nigerian is religious so it's only God that knows where you got this figure from .

Our atheist community has only existed since 2014 and it went from 1 to 900k in less than a decade

The atheists of Nigeria are 900 thousand people currently and growing especially as more Nigerians move to the cities and as public security starts cracking down more and more on jihadism and fundamentalist Islam as time passes means Nigeria is gonna become increasingly secular as time passes. Thoughts on this trend?

I don’t mind if they’re destroying suburbs with those roads, suburbs waste land and resources

Namnam:
HOLY FUCKING SHIT ITS OBVIUS FAKE NEWS IDIOTS THERES NO WAY TO ACCESS THE ARTICLE

ALSO THE ONLY ARTICLES MENTIONING THIS BS ARE STATING THE GOVERNMENT IS RISKING LOSING IT TO PAY OFF LOANS NOT GIVING IT UP

HOLY FUCKING SHIT ITS OBVIUS FAKE NEWS IDIOTS THERES NO WAY TO ACCESS THE ARTICLE

Too much of Lagos is midrises and suburbs, admittedly a lot of those were quickly built due to a need for cheap housing due to immigration this sprawl needs to start facing a hard cap because the city is so large that it’s visible from space and that lack of density destroys potential buissnesses opportunities, inflates housing costs, cuts into government budgets that need to be spent on things like electricity and more railways to our ECOWAS members and wastes resources compared to high rise buildings like in Lagos communities island

Terrorists are now turning towards child predation since they’ve been kicked out of borno, the state of Islam is decaying more and more as time passes…

Walatip397:
Says a country filled with death from gun violence.

These are also the same people that spent 30+ years saying the Chinese economy would collapse

Mayor of ogun HAS to stop building suburbs. They’re a waste of resources, land, tax money and housing is barely available for the average Nigerian. Sprawling out every city like what westerners do only contributes to environmental degradation and makes buissnesses harder to form in Nigeria

I prefer less drug gangs forming

I think the situation is getting better, inflation has finally ended meaning food prices and the currency is no longer inflating, Boko haram and other terrorist groups at this point are dead and only exist to fulfill mindless sectarian violence, infrastructure spending increased 10 fold and the economy recovered from the oil crash

NO NO NO THATS NEVER WORKED

As bad as the Nigerian government is it’s SHOCKINGLY less bad compared to other ones on this planet, they’re willing to fund healthcare education infrastructure and more and at the very least aren’t going to cover up atrocities like the Lekki toll gate thing unlike China and Russia whom wouldn’t even have reported an event like that if it happened

Do you know what are other leaders were like? We’ve only had a functioning government for exactly 20 years, everything before that was endless wars from the west and dictatorships, the government before Bihari wasnt anticipating a population boom and just relied on oil because they thought things would turn out like Dubai, Buhari isn’t the greatest but he’s above average compared to the alternatives especially when the economy is finally seeing falling inflation rates and diversification away from oil

Inflation encourages civilians to work, the problem with food prices and inflation falling is that civilians aren’t encouraged to work or spend or invest in productive labour but rather save their money work less and wait for deflation to make them artificially wealthier without actually working to make any of that wealth legitimate, deflation cannot continue for the health of the Nigerian economy even if that harms the lives of civilians
