Politics / Re: N300 To 1$ - Nigeria Will Be Great Again by OkCornel(m): 11:34pm On May 04
OkCornel:


When we cut down imports of essential commodities like wheat and other foodstuffs we can grow locally, iron/steel etc.

Ramp up production and boost our exports, that’s when the naira can gain reasonable value.

But how can this happen when;

1. Insecurity and killings are rampant in the middle belt and the north?

2. Ajaokuta steel complex isn’t producing enough iron/steel products?

3. Power supply is still epileptic and our power distribution (not generation or transmission) infrastructure is a mess.

4. Nigeria still spends several billions of dollars importing wheat, industrial sugar, drugs, medical tourism etc?

5. Significant chunk of the nation’s foreign earnings still comes from sale of crude oil, which is subject to wild price volatility in the international markets.

6. An extremely corrupt mindset in the public sector that has an insatiable urge to embezzle already scarce foreign exchange proceeds to their several personal accounts offshore?

Factors like these puts a lot of demand pressure on foreign currencies and makes our naira lose value.

So far, nothing much has changed.

BreconHills:


Let reply your question since we are in the season of questions.

Let us assume that the NGN was 650 to the USD. How much was being used to maintain that price per month? Let me help you. The answer is $1.5bn. If you factor that into the rate - then the NGN was never ever 400 or 650 or whatever you all use as your holy benchmark.

Secondly, what was the speculators arbitrage? $200 that's the difference between the official rate of 450 and the black market of 650. Today that arbitrage is next to nothing.

When you factor arbitrage cost and the $1.5bn, the current rate of 1250 - 1300 is far lower than your magic abracadabra 650.

Nigeria is a far better position today than it has been in many years. Yes it's painful but you can't make
omelettes if you don't break eggs.

300 naira to the USD in the “short term”

Before you start jumping up and down, ask yourself should dollar be more than N300..🤔🤔🤔

At all o.

Jagaban promised 300 to the USD in the “short term” as of April 2023.

1 year later, sycophants want to gaslight Nigerians into celebrating 1,200 to the USD.

Interesting ain’t it?

If drinking alcohol is a sin because of drunkenness, can we also say eating food is a sin because of gluttony?

The main issue is lack of self control.
