Why can't they finance the deficit with the trillions trillions that they already recovered
Maybe the so-called recovery is just another LIE from their very productive factory of propaganda, fabricated stories and lies.

No insult intended but this is a very silly question and you can only be pardoned if you are a kid or an illiterate artisan on the streets. Only people who still ask this question are those who have wilfully decided to block their brains (for whatever reasons) or people who are just naturally unintelligent. The hardest man to wake is the one faking his sleep, even if you are told 1000 times, your brain will never be able to comprehend, so there's really no point responding to your silly question.

However, strictly for the benefit of others who may be reading this, only roughly ~N78 billion has been recovered so far, and every sane mind knows that is not the sort of amount that can finance the budget deficit. Trillions sitting in the accounts of indicted suspects have however been frozen even as court cases are still ongoing; one doesn't need formal education or special wisdom to know the government cannot touch these moneys under litigation.

U fail 2 understand this isn't about GEJ. Did barack obama keep blaming george bush 4d recession? Nope he didn't. Now we hear PMB wants 2 borrow,why did it take him over 1 year 2do so? The man is just being a stubborn mule,nothing more.

Sometimes I do not know whether it's just natural ignorance, or whether it's just a prejudiced filled heart that induces people to make ignorant statements like the bolded above...

Is this the first time you are hearing that the FG is going to borrow to finance the N2 trillion deficit in the 2016 budget?...

lame as usual...be gone thou zombie!

Go hang urself, thou wailer!

WTF!!

sarutobie:
an epistle riddled with utter horse poo! so now you irredeemable zombie have finally agreed that people are hungry? I thought it was just wailers and tanoids dishing out propaganda? oh so now the omniscient government has run out of options?? be gone thou hypocrite!

If only you could reason with that thing inside your skull instead of the tiny orifice between your two rear lobes, it would have been clear to you that you just said nothing now.

buffalowings:
Who told you the trains are high speed.

Trains capable of travelling at speeds up to 100-150km/h, and standard gauge rails capable of supporting these rails cannot exactly be termed slow trains can they?

With the exception of super fast trains in few places like Japan, Spain etc., speeds of 100-150km/h are a standard all over the developed world.

Hiploko:
still waiting for the day you will make a meaningful contribution on NL

Coming from a person whose own definition of 'meaningful contribution' is probably to throw insults, make baseless ignorant criticisms and give pointless analysis devoid of reasoning, I'm sorry to dissappoint you, I wouldn't be making any 'meaningful contribution' any time soon.

How I just wish this oil price disaster never happened, the true effects of corruption would have been clearly seen but instead today we hear people ignorantly saying things like "bring back our corruption" because during the time of unfettered corruption, life was easier. These ones have no clue about the effect of oil price, or probably like many others, they've been told that the drop in oil price isn't a weighty issue but that buhari is the one swallowing forex. It's even particularly sad that even educated folks also say this.

jessiecah:
When you're fine, you're fine....

I swear... she was fine as pawpaw and she's also fine as an ebony. Too bad she just chose to be controversial.

Filling stations joining tanker drivers to protest?... This is simple opportunism.

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!

ekhai:
Ask those living in Victoria island to drink from the ocean. You are anti bayelsa for advocating drinking of the polluted water.

Lol.. na wa!.. did you just say I'm anti-bayelsa?... I might not be right but from the best of my knowledge, just dig 30 feet into the ground in most south south cities and you would hit fresh water. In warri for instance, you could dig a clean fresh water well in less than 50 feet.

Elbowroom:
Bros you go school at all? Why do you forget so quick
Have you forgotten the " ZakyZakky " happening in Zaria?

Meanwhile you cant ambush the COAS... If you've seen his convoy before
you would understand better

What does school have to do with anything here?

Even presidents who move around with full brigade of guards are still ambushed.

What if Buratai is ambushed and ***** in this visit?

todayboy:
The Fulani in the chamber will shut him up Its better he communicates to Nigeria on Twitter

Remember common sense is not common

Why should he allow fulani to shout him down?... even if they shout him down, why couldnt he use twitter to harp in it?... at least the last time I checked, everything he says on twitter still gets to the public.

IVORY2009:
lolzz why should he do dat, knowing fully well who Mr Buhari is, he does not want anyone to criticise his govt, if you do, its either AMCON file would be reopened, efcc/Dss would be sent after him or possibily some tax fraud issue levelled on his coy.

Why shouldnt he?... The man has engaged in loads of meaningless criticisms both on and off twitter which can best be classified as 'pointless wailing.' This one on TSA sounds meaningful/constructive; this is the sort of things he should be saying in the floor of the NASS before its implementation, not 1 year after.

Olukat:
Lord save us from APC
This project was on before PGEJ left office

FunkyMetahuman:

See them, typical Nigerian youths; they read only title and proceed to drop comments.

Lol... this one is gradually becoming the new clown.

rhames:
correct phrase: airport tax.

Second levy was importation tax. Go listen again.

Someone is trying to shade someone.. politics!

But water shouldn't be a problem to communities virtually living in water.

Importation tax

Second tenon

Why didnt oga Bruce raise this suggestion on the floor of the senate when the TSA was being kickstarted?

I just can't say whether I should be laughing over this but this is bloody hilarious

Time for some losers to start foaming in the mouth over this woman now.... I can already see them pouring in...

izzou:
Sure

But when his own is completed, we have no choice than to use his own which will make him more richer and smarter than the rest.

This isn't being Passionate. Its called FORESIGHT

If he built a refinery of this scale somewhere else, he could have made the money much faster. But then I agree with you, even though he doesnt make the bucks as quickly or as easily as his mates, upon completion, he will instantly send them all out of business, and that's good foresight. You cant however completely rule out his passion for country.

Nwaiberibe:
Oh! So you know the meaning?

mba amarom the meaning. But it sounds like one sickness which I've noticed many people on this forum are suffering from, #Iberiberism

izzou:
A businessman is after his pockets bro

Do you know why all the refineries in Nigeria are dead?.... it's because the government in collaboration with big businessmen killed the refineries so they can import fuel and make trillions from subsidies. Most of these so called devilish businessmen (including some leaders) actually stole money from Nigeria and built refineries in other countries from where they refine and import fuel to Nigeria and get massive subsidy payments; at a point, even Ibori was rumoured to have a refinery in south africa (a non-oil producing nation).

So coming back to Dangote, if Dangote was like every other businessman who was only out to make money even at the monumental detriment of Nigeria, Dangote could have made much more money locating his refinery outside Nigeria and joining the fuel import crew, but he did the opposite which no single businessman has done till date.

Nwaiberibe:
Not just policemen but the Nigerian police. I celebrate too

Ur username speaks volumes

It has gotten to the point where some now celebrate when armed robbers kill policemen.

I thought someone authoritatively reported today that Rochas was re-slapped by the ghost and he has returned abroad?
