The #800 you consider default was it the price Buhari met, need i remind you as at 2015 $1/220 and was not even the price GEJ bet

That naira as not come down to the specific price you want doesnt negate Naira appreciated .. 1900 to 1200, 700h differences under one month is worth commendation

Which yeye commendation? Was it not APC that used their hands to create events that led to the catastrophic naira devaluation in the first instance!

216-28 that's 188 difference.

I don't even want to mention the 1950 ATH you guys took it too.



Olodo thats not how to compute it, in a lames man term, how many 28 will you cash out in 216, devalued rate is what we are after

216 ÷ 28 = 7.71

1200 ÷ 216 = 5.51

which is higher

Use your brain brother, it’s kept there to be used.

The reason I used N216 was because the person I quoted mentioned that and I just used the numbers. Now tell me the significant difference between 199 and 216 to affect my calculations. If 216 makes 8 folds, 199 will also dangle within 7-8 folds, so what are you talking about.

To your second point, don’t me a dullard. We are using term to compare and not actual time. The lady mentioned PDP met it at a value and APC term is still on and at this point is what we will use as our numbers. No one is asking for depreciation calculation. What gives you the assurance that it will be a linear progression? What if by the end of APC tenure (let’s say in 8 years time to make 16), they take the value down to N300? No law tells us the naira rate will always progress linearly.

The rest of your calculation are jargons because while trying to sound wise, you’re taking the argument to another context. What we are discussing is simple exchange rate fold increase per political party reign.

For my masters, I inserted that because of the nonsense you first quoted. You should tell us your own qualification instead of using Jonathan as a straw man.
You are still disgracing your so-called Masters degree.

What we are discussing on this thread is CURRENCY DEPRECIATION. To calculate depreciation, you either use the depreciation formula or you use the progression. That is why I said your progression was fraudulent because you changed the baseline. You used 28 for rate of progression for PDP only to change it to 216 for rate of depreciation under APC. That's false maths. Because you get almost x10 of the rate you used for PDP for one unit rate under APC. That's why the calculation for depreciation comes in to take care of that. You are expected to understand it as a student of engineering who has done calculus and integration which are basically calculations of rate of change based on non-linear rates.

So while you inserted your Masters, you have not shown adequate understanding of calculation of rate of change over a given period. Also, if you have taken business or accounting classes, you will know there are terms such as real and nominal rates which you have also ignored in your analysis. A good student of Engineering should know quantitative analysis should be balanced else you employ exponential series

PDP met it at N22 and took it to N199. If you look at that critically, you will realise that that is 900% increase Sir.

Mind you, from 1994 to 1999(5 years) under military regime, it was stable at N22. But within one year of Obasanjo's reign (1999-2000), it rose from that same N22 to 85, that is 380%.

Sir, if it could stay at N22 for 5 good years under military regime but rose from 22 to 85 within 1 year of Obasanjo's reign, then OBJ has a lot of questions to answer. The obvious fact is OBJ laid the foundation for continuous devaluation of Naira. Its glaring enough. Politics aside, OBJ led us this far.

Official rate and black market rate no difference now na. We allow politics to divide us instead to unite us. Because of party affiliation and tribe, we can’t tell some people say them dey do wrong. Pdp were not too sound, but apc came and its blackout for now. Forget politics. Criticism is good. Apc did against pdp.

At the end. Me and you, with them, everyone want a better Nigeria. Make we talk truth. If Nigeria be like them Singapore and China now, great system. Everything like 85-90 percent working. We will all be happy innit?
No, if Nigeria starts working today some people will be very embittered because of the same politics you talked about. You know them

Under army rule, naira went from N1 In 1983 to N22 offically in 1999, N89 Unoffically in 1999.

Dollar-Naira Exchange Rate from 1997 to 2000(Black Market Rate.)
1997 $1 = N84. 58
1998 $1 = N84. 70
1999 $1 = N88-N90
2000 $1 = N105.(PDP)
Then APC met it at N216 and now celebrating N1200? Is that not hypocrisy?


This was the official (CBN) rates. I was buying dollar at N178 to a dollar in 1999. The days of Zenith bank Surf card or VbyV card.

Go and sit down. You are worse than an illiterate. If you followed how the argument started you will see how poor your maths skills are. Someone said Pdp met currency at #28 and took it to #216. What's the percentage increase?

APC met it at #216 and took it to #1200. Calculate the percentage increase from 216 to 1200.
We found out that under the PDP the increase was higher than it has happened so far under the APC. That way there's no need to ignore or acknowledge any negative sign, you idiot.

Which means if some people quote a figure, one need to verify it, because did they got 28 naira to Dollar that some hypocrites are claiming on nairaland. 90 naira in 1999 and 216 naira in 2015 is just about 120% increment but from 216 naira to 1900 in 2024 is about 800% increment.

You are just saying nonsense. This is not an accounting class or calculus class.

The argument wasn’t even with you before you center yourself in.

This is the argument:
PDP took it from N28 to 216
APC took it from 216 to 1200

The argument is about folds per political party tenure not about inserting formular into the discussion. Because trying to insert that will mean we will now try to check the time value of those billion $$ PDP got from crude sales during that time with it peaking over $100 during Jonathan period. Then now use that to extrapolate how much PDP had to cushion the effect of naira falling and what modalities they put in place to keep production growing to be able to support the Naira.

Then we will now bring when Buhari came and crude oil sales fell drastically to Covid-19 era, and then now use that to arrive at all factors to now consider which is better or not.

Now tell me how much PDP government earned for their 16 years from crude oil sales since that is the main source of revenue for the CBN and then compare it to Buhari tenure revenue and then use those time value of money to infer which one is better. At least you know our earning power determine how much we have at hand to defend the naira.

Can you see we can take this argument to next year if you’re trying to check all parameters. That’s why it’s good to stay on topic.
