With Tinubu, Nigeria Will Soon Become Number One Debtor To World Bank –Peter Obi by bennybuhari(op): 9:07pm On Sep 11, 2024
Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 general elections says Nigeria, under the leadership of President Bola Tinubu is number three highest debtor to World Bank.

Obi, who spoke in an exclusive interview with News Central TV also said Nigeria will soon climb to number one on the World Bank debtor list with the way things are going.

“Look at our debt, rising irresponsibly. There is nothing wrong in borrowing. Borrowing, for any government globally is accepted. People make reference with every other countries today. I have compared so many countries with the issue of borrowing”.
“Even countries people cite, like Singapore. Singapore today owes over 100 percent of their GDP but they have a clear law that all borrowed money must be for investment”.

“Japan owes over 200 percent of their GDP but the money Japan borrowed, most of their debts apart from being domestic were used for the economy and the people of Japan. Today, China has huge debts but you could see where those debts were invested in”.
Speaking further, Obi said Nigeria has nothing to show for all the loans the federal government has collected since the All Progressives Congress (APC) came to power in 2015".

“Today, we are the number three highest debtor to World Bank. That happened within the past one year. We actually estimated that the way we are going, we will soon be the number one highest debtor. We are a country without anything to show for it”.

“Bangladesh is within those three highest debtors of World Bank but we could see the different. In 2015, when this APC government started, our debt was a third of what it is today”.

Obi is an expert in peddling falsehood. Nigeria is not even close to being number 3 let alone number one. He is just trying to set us up for a world criminal libel.

It’s just really sad the state of the nation is in. I can’t even believe I live in a country where N1,650,000 is just $1,000. Like and we were laughing at Zimbabwean dollars just few years back..

APC has giving me the feeling of what Somalians felt, how Zimbabweans felt. Pray to God we don’t end up having to use wheelbarrow to convey only our bread money

All the devils are in politics.

Lamba king at it again.

Someone asked if this lamba king did not see the kind of stadium Akpabio built in Akwa Ibom? This man has no legacy as a governor to his name other than unverifiable stories.

Nigeria is at a cross road, they have to remove subsidy in order to reduce borrowing. Even an intelligent SS3 student would know that.

Indebted to the World Bank is not the same as indebted to the world.

There are other financial institution in the world, owning World bank doesn't place Nigeria in the number 3 position of the world total debtor.

I wonder why Peter Obi can't pay attention to details, as he always gaffe in his rush to the press to score a political point but always ended embarrassing himself.

No wonder he passed out with 3rd class
