Our ranking would have be in the first 15 if Buhari hadn’t ignorantly and callously devalue our currency three times.

That yeye currency devaluation brought us this low.

How did Buhari devalue the currency, you people are just too lazy minded with no innovation, what did you or your state Government export for foreign exchange since 2015 to help your hapless Naira?

Lazy Shameless people, apart from NNPC dollars were else does the Federal Government generate forex from?

Weldone Karl Max of our time.

If you’re a good student of economics, then you’ll understand that I summarized lack of production by referring to devaluation.

You devalue when your consumption is dependent on importation.

Learn how now to abuse people.

Nigerians that don’t even know their own economy. Nigeria has already diversified its economy. 93% of its GDP is coming from non oil. With the majority of it coming from Agriculture, Trade, and ICT. Nigeria is the largest producer of rice in Africa. But if you ask Nigerians they’ll say we don’t have any Agriculture production.

Yeah, but it's actually per capita (meaning per head), not capital.

They devalued the currency . It is the same NNPC dollars that we have been spending before Buhari came to power.
When Obasanjo was there and before him Abacha. . It was the same oil. BUHARI HAS ENJOYED MUCH HIGHER OIL PRICES THAN ABACHA OR OBASANJO.
Oil prices have been high for a considerable period
Engage with the issue without vile language if you have anything to offer . Under Buhari in 7 years the currency lost 66% of its value. That is unprecedented in our history. That is a fact . Under Buhari our currency has had its worst performance ever.
Several other policies have not helped . The CBN has been lending the government money at unprecedented levels which is effectively PRINTING money .
You say that there has been no exports OK how come Buhari has posted the largest ever Naira denominated budgets ? Simple answer devaluation . This year they are talking about 4 trillion for OIl subsidy? Where is that coming from

So a combination of fiscal irresponsibility and erosion of CBN independence have led us to where we are
There is a lot more naira in circulation since Buhari arrived because they have been printing without restraint

These are sterile "facts"

The reality is that the GDP is too small for our population and so at a per capita level it is not enough to lift the majority out of poverty or even destitution. It does not translate to a good life for most
Largest producer of rice in Africa is a meaningless statistic , add to that cassava, peanuts too . It is not enough to feed our people and is unaffordable for most.
Specifically our production is inefficient and one of the lowest in the world in terms of tonnes per hectare.

The most important thing is employment or should I say unemployment which is one of the highest in the world.

Agriculture is the largest sector of our GDP and one of the most unproductive in the world still using machetes and hoes
Let me give you an interesting statistic. Nigeria imports in excess of $10 billion food yearly. Now where are those dollars coming from ? Over 90% is still oil. So if we do not sell oil we would starve.
It is that stark
