The good thing about the debt business for the creditors is that Nigeria can never finish paying it. If this much goes to the debt servicing, how much is the total principal?
Debt is the best business model in the world--making money out of thin air.

I am not angry that our government got loans from World Bank and China, my anger is that I am finding it very difficult to notice or see what the loans were used for. I pray that an opposition party wins 2023 presidential election in order to have the guts needed to expose and unearth the mess APC has done to this once a great country.
Your problem is that you don't know how to read.
Another problem of yours is that you don't know how to make findings.
If you can read and make findings you will not open your fingers and type you dont know what they have done with the loans

Before the debt will be paid off... our great-grandchildren must have grown old.... Buhari have borrowed the future of Nigeria to loot and share it with his goons ..
That debt can never be paid off! Ever!!!

The only miracle that can happen is Debt Forgiveness, which is a once in a lifetime occurrence.

With our huge deposits of oil see where we gotten to!

The rot started when we gave chance to thieves.

Now this present government have exacerbated things.

Country come hard, if country no hard for your side you dey try o.

Close to three decades and this country never been hard as it for me now.

I said what I said.
Meanwhile, I was asking one oga at the top why despite increase in oil price we in naija have not felt the difference. Naira keeps depreciating while other oil producing countries are smiling to the bank.
Oga asked me if I am not aware that 80% of our crude is being stolen on a daily basis. Howhuh. He said it is not hidden secret say e day papers and news. In short the country is sharing 20%. How is that possible?
Anyway its when this regime leaves we will know how far. I hear the corruption going on now is unprecedented in the history of this country.

Little wonder they call China relationship with Africa "a debt trap diplomacy". So people pay this much to service a debt. This is a new kind of colonialism to me.

Why is it dt no one is asking how much Nigeria gets from crude oil sale daily multiplied by 365days a year?
What of money from taxes and rates,tarrifs on on calls etc daily?
Why then are we borrowing?
Can't Nigeria govt leverage on technology to generate more than enough revenue for d country?
With bvn alone, annual normal tax per citizen can be deducted resulting in trillions? It can equally be done through gsm lines.
Nigerian govt shld pls engage young guys with digital skill tech to help digitalise and automate revenue generation for govt.and stop borrowing .
we have no reason to borrow for we are blessed aside corruption
There is no sin in borrowing..

And the good thing is dat we are paying back little by little..

Tax collection is pretty digital these days...
The only obvious way to increase tax revenue today is to increase tax rate...
And you should know dat a vast majority of the tax especially VAT goes to states and LGA..

In terms of oil revenue...no one knows the actual figure..but our 2022 budget is 17 trillion...and there is a debt deficit of 6 trillion...
Which means the FG can conveniently generate 11 trillion
..You should know that dat would have been way higher inshort by an extra 3 trillion if we didn't have to subsidize fuel...

Meaning
. assuming we don't subsidize fuel
.out of 17 trillion.we can generate atleast 14 trillion and borrow only 3..

Mind u ..most country in the world do not fulfill their entire budget from their revenue alone

Borrowing debt nd paying back has little impact on the economy...

We are simply suffering In terms of economy because of the low forex reserves due to a consuming nation Rather than a producing one

Bros i agree with you that there is no sin in borrowing, but in our own case it is outrageous because we are only servicing the debt not even the repayment principal
