We have no shame in this Country.


We can't get t a job with a 2.2 certificate but we can take leadership positions without a degree.

It's a shame

thank you for this your comment. Is like you know what I told my colleague in office today. You know the stress we passed through before gaining admission into the university and polytechnics. Thereafter one will still suffer after the admission and pay a lot with a lot of stress and money. After that, no job or job with peanut. But the one especially for the position like this case of Adeleke who will be earning millions of naira and a lot a of allowances like security vote will produce only f9 for just sitting for the examination. Worst still those that attended polytechnics will be told that they can't reach directorate cadre except if they produce additional certificate. Do you think we a reasonable constitution or what.

HoluwarTohbar:
Shut up! Igbos own Lagos!

no wonder you lost 2015 general election with all your igbo own Lagos to a fulani man who do not have 5 percent in lagos state. Ordinary chest beaters.

This is how they will be raising false alarm to have people's sympathy. How did you know the faces of strangers or do you know everybody in your community? You can also tell us your own strategy and swear if you have 100 percent of free vote from your supporters.

SadiqBabaSani:
Buhari must nt be re elected

I know you will never read the news. Your lords, jonathan and obasanjo iare the one owing them the arrears.

You have not even mentioned any tangible thing to hold for success of Adeleke your candidate in osun state. Point of correction, you said dickson is the only governor that has won the governorship race during the regime of pmb since he came to power, this a blatant lie. What of governor of anambra state, obiano?secondly, all your analysis can work in balyesa but not in osun state because of so many factors. No 1 the issue of incumbent governor.2. Division in the house of pdp. 3. The issue of dancing senator. 4. The issue of certificate. 5. Run away from public debate because of his lapses. 6. Partially because of his religion for converting to christian which make him to add his Muslim to his campaign

.....

Mr economist, I am a very insulting person, but I hold made not to unleash him on u,so we can discuss as educated,persons, but ur fast to add all manner of insults on ur quote...plz dnt tempt me..

back to the topic at hand.they tell u in textbook that cash crops are those grown for export in exchange for money, does it mean cash crops can't be processed in ur own country for ude..?.thats the same thing for foreign reserves, the money belongs to u,and is serve a purpose among OTHER purpose, to show a nation credibility for enhanced international trade, but remember I said among other things.

foreign reserves can also be used to build infrastructure, it can be used for loan management like OBJ did. so my man, dnt b restricted by just textbook, that's kemi's mistake.

ministers are policy makers nd not law makers, iweala met an economy that is xterised,by very high public servant nd narrow private sector..sh started he process of narrowing Recurrent expenditure by introducing the monetization policy.if u studied labour economist, u wld hv known that massive relief of workers of their jobs is a no no,it has to be don gradually, sh increased VAT to raise revenue, sh created the TSA to guard against leakages...nd suddenly their was a massive dwindling of govt revenue...if it were u and ur adeosun, u wld choose to do wot kemi did and send millions to grave,

no iweala, borrowed, to kip people alive yet announced to then to tighten thier belt as salaries may start delaying, sh introduce tax for the wealthy etc.

the difference btw iweala nd adeosun is dt iweala knows that economy affects ppl nd harsh policies myt kill humans in d economy whilst kemi is too theoretical abt her management..it is on record that iweala bed the govt at the gov forum to plz save for the rainy day,which they refused cuz of greed.....
iweala, created you win to grow investment, kemi crested n- power to pay more salaries.

iweala invested on joint private nd govt transport busses, inscription of fed,govt,assist,mass transit.. to alleviate the high cost of transport, do that ppl wld allow her deregulate nd reduce govt spending...kemi deregulated without thinking about the people...

if u must know,nigeria I'd nit an empty land, it us full with ppl,so theoretical textbook,policies can hv a delay effect on people.thst wot kemi never realised....

insult me again mr working class. I know all this cuz I read,eat,sleep econonics,nd hardly contributed to any other sector..i teach economics at a federal university..so don't think ur chatting with a great age boi......

my responds did not insult you except where I also used your dad as an example base on what you used. Theoretical or practical all have meaning to the economy base on your assumption and findings. Micro from household to macro the larger economy. All government of the day must have one policy or the order but how to utilise those policy for effective and efficiency on economy is what matter most. Any reserve is meant for a purpose. And it must have a long span. Ypu are saving for the raining days ahead. Not that you can not take money from foreign reserve but you must be very careful because it will affect a lot of things which may bring down the economy. Thank GOD you said okonjo said we must save because she knows the important of saving. Any economy that is not saving is a not a good economy. That economy may be going at a high speed but it must collapse one day and it may a longer day before recovery which is one of the reason we are here today. Just like somebody that have 1m in his account and he started wasting the money maybe on dating girls and drinking beers. No savings at all. After some month he now realise that he left with just 20k then he started looking for where to give money to his girl friends and buy beers so that people will not see him as a poor man, mind you maybe he collected loan to build house initially but he has wasted the money on another thing. Please where, how, and when did you want him to get that money back? Maybe in the next three years after servicing his loan and get another one. Another area you mentioned is revenue getting to TSA by raising tax. Kemi has done well with this together with fowler. Okonjo initiated tsa but not fully implemented it. Kemi saw the policy and worked better on it. Those that refuse to join before are now part of the tsa. Our tax have increased tremendously to the revenue we are generating to thetsa more than any previous government. I'm sure you know this as an economist or can get this on Internet by comparing the past with present using ration analysis. More so this government is notowing salary of workers and not short paying talkless, of retrenchment. Lastly, I like ideal analysis than abusing words as many of nairaland used to do. You should also consider one factor in nigeria that is too much love of money. This led to looting of our resources and tsa have help a lot to reduce it but not to the expectation. With time it will still improve. Thank you.

..brother if ur very good in politics, beleive me,i would nvr quote u,cuz I know nxt to nothing abt it..but to say it makes more sense for ur dad to save up 1million naira in d family account wen u, his child is in need of 650,000 naira for a life threatening sickness is not sensible for ur dad, ppl build foreign reserves becuz of the rainy days. now in the mist of the rainy daiz. usage shld be encouraged and loans collected. adeosun single handedly killed thousands of nigerians through endless frustration rising from result of her sense policies.......

that's how your daftness and intelligent reach. We are talking about economy, saving for easy trading between our dear country and the rest of the world and you are talking about if I know politics. So your dad don't know how to save but to eat with all his ten fingers. Many of you don't know the difference between savings and borrowing. Loan management is what matter most while you borrow to finance your capital budget. Not in a situation of okonjo that was depleting our foreign reserves and at the same time borrowing to pay workers salary and still telling us to be expecting hard time in the country. Even you as a working a working class(tat is if you are) while would you borrow money from bank or government to buy car or build a house when you have a salary coming in every month. At the same time you will still be saving from your balance after paying your monthly loan. Just because it will take you a longer period to save money and buy the or build the house. We also have what we called time value of money. 1naira you have today is not the same 1 naira you have tomorrow because of some economic factor like inflation. Let me stop here.

You missed another genuine point. She increased our foreign reserve from 29 billion US dollars to 45 billion US dollar when the price of crude oil dropped 30 dollar, now about 70 dollar compare to wen oil was selling at 110-130. She really try on

RockHard:
It was a well planned and orchestrated fake news meant to generate public sympathy for Adeleke. Even Davido his nephew was in on it. Shameless people.

just the way adelelke won his senatorial seat with lies that his uncle borrowed aregbe money to pay salary of civil servant in 2014. They are born to lie

It is a bad thing when where you are getting money just vanish in a day especially from political angle. One of the most useless pastor and corrupt politician pastors in the country. Instead of praying for nation, they will be fooling their supporters by promoting one political paty especially the corrupt one like PDP that will be supporting them with big looted fund from aso rock. He has never do any permutation and come to reality. Let him swear that he is not even a cult member of one secreat society. Am sure he won't try it because majority of them are in one cult or the other.

CilicMarin:
I thought River State was 100% PDP?

don't mind him, that is how APC won senatorial election in rivers state yet they will still be bragging that APC/amechi has no political weight in rivers state.

Pls will this news make a bag of rice come down to 10k? A carton of tin tomatoe 1100?a crate of egg 600? Abi 1naira to 1$?

is like you are cursed with food? If you don't know the benefit of buy aircraft with opportunity of creating job which will bring food to your table and possibly bring the cost of goods down, you should ask someone for narration.

My Yoruba Muslim friend
We all know otedola is a Yoruba Christian

So kindly shut Up

you lack common sense. Is like the problem you have in life is about Islam? So Ambode is now a Muslim or what? Take it or you leave, 10 times of otedola can't be governor of Lagos when tinubu is still alive. PDP on its own, knew they are dead in lagos state and other yoruba land

Johnnyessence:
Tvc is Tinubu television. no governorship candidate. tvc has been compromised including their journalists. the only radio FM that recently conduct debate with the deputy governorship candidate is ravefm 91.7, And they have done extremely well in their questions. Infact 4 solid deputy governorship candidate came that day to answer questions, the names of the parties representatives are Pdp, Apc, ADP, SDP. kudos to them all. no one will listen or watch tvc cos' it's not reach in osun state and also it's Tinubu company.

if TVC is tinibu's own station, why cant you watch it live from channedls tv or is there anybody forcing tvc on you.

quentin06:
oh please keep emotions out of these, how graduates can afford keke?

not about emotion but saying earning more than some graduate. He cannot earn more than somebody like me but telling them the truth to change their atttide towards recking the owners of the tricycle other means of transportation when the owner suuferes to gathher money to buy it. If you read througthe line,you will see that i said that they can make any amount in aday but shshould also incoporate the system trusthworthy.

Yes i agree with you but majority of you are thieves. Am not abusing you on what you make per day but how much are you delvering for the owners? The same graduate you are talking about are the ones buying many of the trycycle and other commercials vehicle but you either give excuse when it the time to deliver her money. You make up to 10k at times but not ready to deliver her own 2k per day. If you can fulfill your own side nothing concers the owner if you make 15k per day.

Buterflyle0:
This is how you make an analogy

US National Debt - $21 Trillion - Debt to GDP 76%
UK National Debt - $2.3 Trillion - Debt to GDP 89%
China National Debt - $4.3 Trillion - Debt to GDP 41%
Nigeria National Debt - $73 Billion - Debt to GDP 21%

Debt is not the issue. It's what you do with it that's the issue.
Question is - If debt is rightly invested in infrastructure (that creates Capital Formation) or human capital (that keeps people alive & develop their skills and mental capacity), we'll be ok. If truth be told, a large Percentage of our National Debt was looted by the previous governments.

The conversation we should be having concerning our National Debt is
- Is it sustainable?
- What is it invested on?
- How much would those investments add to the GDP?
- When should we expect these ROI?

This government is committed to infrastructural awakening and is well on the course to achieving this with a time frame in mind after which we begin to get our ROI fast

These are some of the key indices that bring about an economical rating and yes as it stands now, Nigeria is the best economy in africa all thanks to this present Government which remained unwavering in the face of recession and maneuvered the nation out of those murky waters to the place where Forbes could now rate us as they have done.

Kudos to PMB and PYO.

A match made in heaven.

God bless Nigeria

my man! No matter how you explain to them ,they will still not reason to your explanation. Jonathan and okonjo school of taught on econmy is affecting their intelligence. I ahve one in my office, accountant for that matter, a graduate of OAU. The only thing you will be hearing from his mouth is that Buari borrowed money when they have recovered looted fund and so other jaggons. I used to let him know that at least he studies financial management and let him know all this point but he will be looking support from his group who doesnt understand anything about econmy and how to manage a borrowed fund successfully. Pmb still remain the best that has happen to nigeria. The best example is an increase in forien reseve and, development on capital projet and concentration on agricultural development which will yeild a positive inrterest for us in yeears to come

Princeofnigeria:
This mark the destruction of China, you can't fight God

Our lord Jesus Christ is forever.



Islam tried they fail now they bombard themselves to pieces while all the Christian Western nations are free and developed



I spit on China

.I spit on Saudi Arabia


I spit on Mecca


I spit on Medina


I spit on all enemies of Christianity

you should rather spit on your religion full of lies and disturbance. If you have read above the lines, you will know that China was doing it because majority of the churches they mentioned violated the China laws on building churches where is not suppose to be. At the same time may be they are tired of all your kajo miracles and systematic collection of money from poor to enrich your pastors. E.g money mongers like pastor adeboye,, and the elder stealing pastor of winners church. Fool what concern Islam with the topic?

Bibors:
Why?

because saraki is a thief and a crook which can never have the interest of the nation at heart. His only interest is to loot the nation treasury dry.

TooNoisy:
These people think we are daft.

Nigeria receives $322million refund from Switzerland which has now been shared with nameless and faceless poor Nigerians. However, we go borrow $328million to fund telecomms infrastructure backbone. Shouldn't the Swiss refund have been used for the telecomms infrastructure backbone?

So in summary, we have borrow $328million from China to share with faceless and nameless Nigerians. What a shame. We all know that there isn't going to be any telecomms infrastructure backbone.... they will just share some money to themselves, pay the Chinese a royalty and nothing gets done.

you people should stop digracing yourself. The swizz money was meant for another thing entirely base on agreement between Nigeria, world bank and swizz before was released. The money meant for borrowing is for another thing entirely but you people will not bother to read and comprehend but to share rubbish on facebook and other social media. Lazy youth!

vanbonattel:
kwara 8%
benue 0 %
taraba 5%
kogi 20%
niger 10%
plateau 6%

you don't even know what you are typing. Kogi belong to APC so is 70-30. Kwara presently is 50-50 if you know what is going on there. Benue apc may likely loose there. Niger apc will win but you may be thinking of iBb influence there. Jos also belong to APC either you like it or not. Please take hearth.

vanbonattel:
you stopped there because you know you will get only 10% in north central, keep bloating your egos.

please which part of north central APC will get 10 %? I will like to know.

You want to kill saraki and atiku this night abi? PDP look for your address for exposing their weakness.

Franchise21:
In my opinion, the best performing Governor is Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos State and the worst performing Governor is Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State.


Guys, let's hear you out

just because you put your flat head somewhere in the east, hearing nonsense from pdp supporters on the social mediam i can say money make Ambode to be the best but without using money power Aregbe is the best. If you can visit osun state by your self it will be better. The best public school s is in Osun state presently. Security of lives and property, osun will be rated among best three because it has one of the highest number armoured thank in the country after lagos i think. O' Ambuance has helped a lot of people to rgain their lives due to quick responds from osun state government intervention to good health. Roads construction in osun is very fantastic. Environtally the govt has done wonderful well by moving its vehicles including sundays to clean the majour roads and removing waste. Where he got wrong was inability to pay salary of workers up to dat. But in others i give it to him.

IllegalMoney:
..

aregbe dont need to making noise on his achievement. Wise people of osun can easily see the achievement across the state of osun. Only a fool and blind person with hearth of hatred will open his or her mouth and say aregbe has not achieve anything in osun. Meanwhile, if you have watched the program very well, you can see that they were in hurry because of rally in the town. Those crowd you saw yesterday matched from stadium to olaiya to imform people about thier interest.

Pdp is dead in suth west already. If you see the crowd today in osogbo both on the road and at the staium, you will certainly know that other parties are mere joke in osun.

If u can hand over yourself to police and EFCC now and confess all your atrocity of how you liquidated society general bank and kwara at large, then you can fight corruption. Saraki the highest crook and greatest looter of our time. I hail o!

United for life.
