If you wanted to borrow money from bank they ask for guarantor, may be three or two
If you default, it's the guarantor that will face the music

That's why people are careful not to do guarantor for people nowadays
Shark loans have noose neck breaking interst rates. If you don't pay by their stipulated time, their interest will keep soaring sky high

Nobody cares about anybody

Everybody cares about me and only me

No bank operates single digit interest rate, all of thrm are double digits, 39, 35, 33percent

They don't care whether you live or die. That's your own problem

Countries like USA live heavily on a good credit system.

You don’t need to have money before you build a house or drive a good car. All you need is a job and a good credit score, and there’s available credit system for you that gives you these house on mortgage payment, give you car to pay on credit and pay installmentally from your salary and infact, most tertiary institutions in the USA are on credit for the students.

So on this, he’s right.
he's not right because it what they called stand minimum wage and nigeria don't have it! Let nigeria government fix that first before talking sayarn. Aba

Even a broken clock is right twice in 24 hours.

He has not made any earth shattering or groundbreaking points. These things have been said for decades.

What people do is important, not just what they say. The candidate is not an unknown quantity. He has held public office before. There is only one set of questions surrounding him: Does he pass the integrity test? Does he pass the transparency test?

Anyone can be an advocate for widening the tax net. Or setting up a credit based economy instead of a cash based one. Nothing new there - first year finance and economics students know these things. For this candidate, the key question is whether he will build institutions and the answer, unfortunately is "no".

The facts are there. Did he publicly declare his tax returns while in office? Did he declare his assets publicly while in office? What has he done to 'domesticate' the Freedom of Information Act in his state? And so on.

He is not the right man for the job.

Price of goods have quadrupled in the last 7 years. Wages and salaries has been stagnant(some even take half pay) for years now. EscoBAT says he wants credit facilities to be available, isn’t that stupid? How do they pay back when there’s no means.


This man needs a better time with his grandkids, not with the presidency. Old Demented Fool.

I don't know he is even talking about corruption. Someone that's been fingered multiple times on corruption allegations.


The cause of corruption is also the cause or enabler of many of other Nigeria's problems and that is lack of accountability. Nobody is held accountable or very few people are held accountable for their crimes which is not good. It's the same reason a police man would tell you; he will shoot/kill you and nothing would happen.

That is it.
Brilliant write up. You are absolutely on point.

Are you blaming their gullibility? You know all these Obi people are indomie children with little or no knowledge of good governance. I agree with them about the state of the nation but they don't think deeply and that's the mistake millions of Nigerians made in 2015. I mean this "kick and go" support for Buhari and APC took advantage of it not knowing that our man knew next to nothing. The same mistake is about to be repeated by these children. Capacity and experience is very key and that's what would inform my final decision next year.
Think it through, how can government give you loan without an assured means to pay back, those that qualified have always gotten a loan, banks are even begging people to come and collect a loan but the challenge is paying back. Job security is another thing. Anybody giving out loan must have the means to get their money back.
If you make it less secured, they will lend money to their family and friends knowing that you cannot default without been jailed and that itself is another avenue for corruption.
Think well or ask any banker you know
Re: Tinubu: Lack Of Access To Credit Facilities Is A Major Cause Of Corruption by IfnobeGod20(m): 7:22am On Jul 30, 2022
Giving credit facility can not stop corruption in Nigeria. Let us first ask ourselves, why are those that have enough money still embezzling our common patrimony up and down?
For corruption to be nip in the bud, there's need to create enabling environment, create job opportunities and most importantly let there be attitudinal change. 70% of Nigerians are not patriotic at all. What is meant for a community, one person would won't to pack everything, not because he doesn't has but the greed in him/her.
Give loan to everyone, if there is no enabling environment, the money will fly away and repayment will be difficult. Why on the average, some are corrupt, not because they are not earning well but they want to meet up with taste because their income cannot meet up with demand. If such man is giving loan, the money given will drain because of bad economy.
So giving loan to curb corruption is secondary. The primary issues should be consider before the secondary.

Credit facilities? Really?

Another loan sharks in disguise.
This is Nigeria.

I’m guessing you did not even bother to watch the video

Abroad everyone has a credit card from the waiter I’m the restaurant to the fortune 100 CEO.

An African girl once did a vid saying “they say Africans are poor but if you see an African with an iPhone know that he paid for it 100% but a fin you see with an iPhone most likely bought it using credit card … so who is poor?”

What she did not realize is that credit means the guy isn’t looking for who to use for ritual so he can get rich

That credit means he isn’t looking for who to steal from so he can eat

That credit means he isn’t looking for motorist to fine for a traffic infraction so his family can eat

In developed countries almost everyone is on CREDIT

Apply common sense, my friend. If you can walk into a mortgage bank and take a loan of N100million at a mere 3% interest per annum to buy your dream house without having to bribe the bank manager, would you think of doctoring government papers in your office to siphon away Pensioners’ savings because you want to provide a home for your family? huh huh

Where will you get the collateral from or don't you think that we have such in place, what of the interest as banks would want?

We have it in place but you have to be qualified to access it which most Nigerians are not qualified for.

You can't just give a loan to someone that cannot pay. My bank is even begging me to collect a loan which I turned down.
The inflation rate won't even allow lenders to give out loans too
There are unemployed people everywhere in the world and that's why credit facilities are means-tested. If you don't have the means to pay for it, you can't get it...

There are millions of Government workers who are unable to get a roof over their heads but earn enough to afford to contribute 30K to 50K every month to pay over a long period like 30-35years to have a house to themselves. Credit facilities will ensure they can buy whatever they can afford to pay over some time. It is so funny that people can use this facility to buy something as stupid as a Phone and repay over 12-36months depending on what they can afford to pay, that's why it is always means-tested and not collateral dependent as we presently have in Nigeria.

The unemployed will have to get a means to attain regular income, an okada driver, a bus driver etc will comfortably own home if credit systems are in place unlike the present situation where individuals need to raise a bulk amount to buy land, raise another to do foundation and the cycle goes on
Re: Tinubu: Lack Of Access To Credit Facilities Is A Major Cause Of Corruption by AdeniyiA(m): 7:30am On Jul 30, 2022

Check out those saying he is intelligent without even the slightest clue about what the man was bleating about.

Banks advance credit facilities to those who "qualify". The question is: How do millions of "unemployed" or "underemployed" youths access credit facilities? Or should banks hand out money to people because Tinubu says so? Tinubu is living in lala land.

Tinubu is putting the cart before the horse. Economy and Employment are the priorities now. Apparently his speech was aimed at those doing well in the society. I guess the best he can do for the unemployed still remains agbado and cassava.

Credit facilities such as Mortgages, Car loans, personal loans, Educational loans etc are certainly the way to go to attain luxury in most developed countries everyone wants to "Japa" to.....Availability of both soft loans and hard loans will reduce dependence on bulky cash transactions; a precursor for corruption) which means individuals only need to find a regular and steady means of paying back a predetermined amount then other secondary needs can be achieved with ease

You can try to deny it but a large number of Nigerians in the diaspora who have a house to themselves today or will buy in future can only achieve it through a mortgage and you don't need to be in the most glamorous of all jobs to own a home in most of these countries because individuals are means-tested before loans are handed to them and such loans are protected with different forms of insurance ( mortgage insurance, life assurance, income protection insurance etc.)

He has a genuine point and liberals like me love to hear alternative solutions to the status quo and not the normal shenanigans our politicians dish out to appeal to emotions. I guess this submission and the widening of the tax bracket are different ideas that are not common for politicians to come up with...
That is absolutely a hogwash.
You access credit facility when you are employed and has way of paying in the West.
If you fail to meet up, you will be penalised. More problem for you.
In Nigeria, where is the work?
Millions are unemployed.
You don't take the cart before the horse but that's what he is doing already.
As long as production and exportation remain zero in Nigeria, a dollar will become 1k very soon. Simple basic economics.

China was nothing 30 yrs ago.
We still boast, we don't want made in China but the same made in China has made them the world's second economy.
What do you produce, nothing.
Even aba people that are producing, ethnic hatred stiffled their growth from the centre.

Nigeria is number one globally in throwing lavish party. We waste more than we make.
You are giving out loans to people that is not captured on database?

If you are part of his team, tell them to write better proposals for him as this is a total f.

Each state has strength, he should capitalise on that. That is the message he should be sending. Message of hope and excitement.

That is why obi is gaining momentum.
For the first time, the poor people in the North felt they are part of the system and are eager to work even though they are not educated.
The world has more nonskilled workers than skilled workers.
Give them hope not coming every 4 years to use them under the disguise of religion after bribing They are tired. As long as those in power continue to practice politics of exclusion, Nigeria will never get better rather it will be worst. No country has ever progressed with that. Just a matter of time for the masses to come for the elite. Uprising starts any day and Nigeria is not immune to it. It take just one little nudge

Dust your sociology and psychology textbooks and read. It's no miracle. That's how the developed countries emerged.

when u have enough to sort your bills n u can always pay later u will never think of stealing at work or bribery

Just imagine u need urgent 100k n it’s very important to get it,if there’s availability of credit facility u can always approach credit facilitators n get d cash but imagine in a situation u can’t access credit anyone who gives u an offer of corruption u will surely go for it

What it means is that if u have many options to solve your problem u won’t think of stealing

I hope I made sense
