Business / Re: There Are Too Many Nairas Chasing Too Few Dollars - IMF Rep by pocom16: 3:28pm On Sep 26, 2023
NotMagicBishop:
Courtesy of that bastard Emefile who printed over #30 trillion naira from thin air to float the dissatrous bandit government of Buhari.


So when he decided to recall all the nairas ..to reduce circulation..what happened...
See..the problem is ..we are an import dependent country...dollar is the global means of exchange..we need to produce more for the world to earn enough dollars simple...right only oil does that and it isn't enough

If she felt so, why not engage the company first and receive necessary information before coming online to discredit a well known brand. Some people find it so difficult to follow right channel in relieving their grievances, they take liberty to talk carelessly as a real big deal.
engage a Nigerian company.. and you think the Nigerian company will act on it because on person called.. what she did isn't wrong . and its the best way to get their attention..

supporting the fact that she got arrested for such proves how rogue you are.. so she doesn't have right to speak of a products she bought with her money cuz na her brother?
if it is Dangote that owned that company I can bet you won't say such

BUA’s dropping to 3500
And some people that are hating for things to be better are hoping for it to reach 9000k?

I always say the worst Nigerians that makes us suffer most, are the dealers of all these things we use, they’ll just feel like hiking prices just like that and can do it, no one will stop them, no one

BUA has not dropped anything..

All na wash..let them drop their price first..

They are paid back..

The 85% borrowed for Abuja to Kaduna has been paid back..
Lagos to ibadan is pending..

Kaduna to kano is FG funded..
Kano to maradi is funded by loans (85%) but this time not from china

Shebi useless Rotimi Amaechi left the railway undone while building Lagos-Abeokuta-Ibadan-Kano railway and the Warri-Itakpe-Ajaokuta railway. Such a useless vagabond like Olusegun Obasanjo

Amaechi was a minister not governor..
He is under a president..Buhari prioritize Lagos to ibadan .same as the northern rail..

A minister from a state doesn't give him the power to direct projects to his state..it is an appointment..use your brain

I doubt if Amaechi can finish anything, he just starts projects and abandons them, making huge losses. Monorail, Former UPTH, Transport University, Railway projects worth trillions of naira all gone.

Why on earth should a Chinese company provide 85percent funding for a project in Nigeria. What are they getting in return?

If you believe Chinese will do something for free for you, you are ignorant of their ways.
They provided 85 percent of the money that built Abuja to Kaduna and Lagos to ibadan

When you give job to China Civil Engineering Construction company, do you expect quality materials? We have capable engineers and engineering firm. Buit any job of note is either ceded to Chinese or other foreign companies. 45% completion in one year of three seems to be fast enough. The challenge here is the identified poor materials!!! kiss kiss

Mention the capable indigenous engineering firms that can beat the Chinese or German...

Or mention any one better than CCECC, RC, Julius Berger..
I am waiting ..


Most Nigerian contractors are completely incompetent.. Umahi lambasted one who ironically is an Igbo man that owns it the company and was given contract to build a road in his own state in Igbo land..go and see the rubbish they did..

When it comes to providing infrastructure..we should stick to quality and competence first..

The reason the Chinese are slow on that project is because there is no money..

Money doesn’t necessarily bring happiness ,it’s just important to have it to solve basic problems. but you think it does cause there’s probably a lot of stuffs you want to do with money.

Well think about it this way , after getting all the money and you’ve done everything you’ve always wanted , you start to feel empty ,it’s like you’ve seen it all so there’s no excitement anymore , u begin to get tired of luxury easily.

That’s why you see the likes of Elon musks , Dangote , Otedola , money doesn’t seem to excite them at all. But they understand that it important to have it.

But thought the Super tucano that the king of Lies The Legendary Lai Mohammed puffed and bragged about days unending would have silenced boko haram. ISWAP and the rampaging bandits..

No one hears about Super tucano anymore now it is ATAK, DA 62, CASA 295 etc we are hearing..

Anyways good luck to them....they sha make sure they deploy the most brutal of those new platforms to the south east, Ipob miscreants parading as UGM and ESN need to be wiped out.

If they can even target some of them on this platform better and more importantly they shouldn't forget that Bushmeat Simeon Ekpa.

But after the procurement..
Boko and iswap boys tuned down a bit ..

Bandits are still in rampage..
These should be top priority..

SE situation is not one that can be solved with guns.. the people do not admit UGM as an enemy

If south east making President matters less..then y'all should cry fowl every election of marginalisation..

This isn't a matter of who's tenure does good for the country.. it's about ensure regions have a sense of belonging by attaining high post of leadership.. stop pretending that it is irrelevant..but will complain later of being marginalized

Get out. You are a traitor. You are cursed. See how you keep betraying your people just because of what you want to eat. People like Ogbonaya Onu are members of APC but they spoke truth to powers on the need for power to go to the south east but you could not support him because you are meant for the gutters.
Shame on you.

But that's is the problem..Igbos think it is an entitlement that is given irrespective of how they act..no sir..it doesn't work that way..

Igbos need to be more committed to the Nigerian project and build alliance..

All this.. betrayal..bla bla. Won't help..
When Umahi left for APC.. he was seen as a betrayal..just for moving to APC...how dumb.. igbos view APC has Hausa Fulani party ..they attach hatred to northern tribe to everything that is why they don't like co existing..and any Igbo who takes a step will be hated by the tribe .. isn't that foolishness.. how many igbos are in APC that they will just dash them ticket..for where..

Check every political party..Yoruba and the northerns are very saturated there..they are also very liberal..but igbos pack themselves and support inside one party.. so how do expect politics to favor them?...
