I Will Use A Contractionary Monetary Policy To Fight Inflation - Peter Obi by nlfpmod(mod): 9:44pm On Sep 05, 2022
These are my views on the economy.

Flutterwave, on its own, was recently valued at US$3 billion. We will create an enabling environment for our startups to thrive. Beyond creating access to easy funding,

We will enforce the legal framework protecting foreign investors and their indigenous partners. This is the only way to improve our business environment and tamper capital flight.

We will stop borrowing for consumption. All loans must be invested in regenerative projects. Inflation is a factor of spending on goods and services outstripping production. Since we have not resolved the minimum wage issue,

We will not use wage and price controls to fight inflation. Rather, we will pursue a contractionary monetary policy. We will mop up excess liquidity by reducing the money supply within an economy.

The truth is that for long market forces have not determined the exchange rate of the Naira. The two tier foreign exchange regime is a fluke. It has to end. Let the exchange rate be determined by the forces of demand and supply. It is that simple.

Government must continue to collaborate with the organized private sector in this regard. Creating the enabling environment for raising employment must start with expanding the SMEs cluster via unfettered access to funding. -PO

Now this is the only candidate that is ready

Good point... the economy is tight already, production would take a process, I believe the template used in managing Anambra where cost of governance was reduced to bearest minimum should be employed to help distribute scarce monitored resources to areas of urgent need.. the major problem would be the cash-cow bottomless pit areas such as insecurity in the north.. we should have collaborations with stronger nations on mercenaries...

I strongly believe that the exchange rate would crash the moment Obi is declared, while it might skyrocket for the others if other candidates are declared..

Policy .

The truth is that for long market forces have not determined the exchange rate of the Naira. The two tier foreign exchange regime is a fluke. It has to end. Let the exchange rate be determined by the forces of demand and supply.

He was trying to impress zombidients with highfalutin words without knowing what it means when he was talking about contractionary monetary policy.

A fantastic economist!
There is nothing fantastic about what he said. The man when to USA and heard about contractionary monetary policy (a kind of macroeconomic tool) that the USA adopt for their federal reserve, and boom, the man(obi) just assumed that such policy can work for Nigeria.

What works for A is not likely to work for B. There is a big difference between an economist who understands every dynamism of both micro/macro economics with someone who is a trader.
