Dont you think that our thin revenue is an indictment of the current government and party.?

I fail to see any self deciet

I don't understand what you mean.

The crux of my point is, there's no thin revenue. The revenue is looking thin to ordinary people because it is stolen in astronomical levels.
Nigeria has more than enough revenue to run a healthy country if we are a serious people especially in our political circle

Whether it is an indictment on the current government and party is another thing but believing the idea that Nigeria is not industrialized because we have thin revenue is false. It is a narrative by government to further shirk its responsibilities to the people.

Most Nigerians provide everything for themselves including providing security.

Well,our revenue is small,and it is a shame that government does not earn more or fight corruption with it.

Therefore government needs to do better. Serious indictment

And no,I am not excusing any government. If anything,again,thin revenue means that they ain't doing their job well.

There is no narrative..and a budget of 33 billion dollars is not enough for a nation of 200 million people, and that is before the looting starts.

But anyway, ye don't have to believe me..or agree with me

tinubu wants to be APC presidential candidate after tinubu?

The budget is still 33 billion today because it is not used for what it is meant for. If the 33 billion is utilized, the 33 billion that is looking thin to you would naturally increase because there would be productivity.
If Nigeria budgets 500 billion, the same reason(s) why the 33 billion is not working or looking thin would make it thin too because there would be nothing to show for it. Industrialization is entrenched not by simply having more money to spend.

@ last paragraph, I wasn't arguing with you as we agree on most points. Was only pointing your attention at the direction that "welfarism" is not really our problem which you seem to be against vehemently.
No form of government or type of economic system neglects government providing certain welfare for its people, and providing it should not stop government from performing other responsibilities if the country is a serious one.
