Wait a second... I live in a democracy and I am sure that is not how it works at all. Laws are not made simply on grounds of popularity but on considering the evidence available to support the need for the laws.

What percentage of Nigerians use foreign currencies for goods and services? What percentage of workers in Nigeria are paid in foreign currencies? ... Is the volume we are talking about here really enough to negatively dent the Nigerian currency in the way this Ned Nwoko suggests?

I seriously doubt it, by the way.

Popular opinion and demand made Northern Nigeria practice Sharia law. Even though Christians live there, the majority had their way.
Back to Ned ,I'm sure being a senator, he's in a good position to know how these rich people spend. It's enough to affect when you realize most foreign embassies collect their visa applications in forex. Same for schools too. And hiring these our top celebrities is done in forex even in Nigeria.
Let the FG stop this practice first and let's see if it doesn't make a difference

I am not spitting. Just telling you to stop wasting your own life all in the name of trolling.

You are the one punishing yourself by creating on average of 5 monikers daily just to tell others to shut up. It takes less than 30 seconds to report

We have asked you to tell us the name of the richest man from your village who made his money by trolling others

Oya, respond robotically

Sultanofpiglets:
They will call him IPOB...and a BIAFRAN apologists.

Tomorrow they will say IGBOs want to claim Anioma and are land grabbers.

They will also say that NED NWOKO is a terrorist


They must cry Blood

I just noticed it
Calling Ned Nwoko an Igbo man now
These same folks were angry when this man proposed that Anioma State should be part of the SE

I disagree because history tells us differently! Sharia was imposed on the people since a referendum was actually never helped to ascertain what it was the people wanted before that decision was made.

2. Stop lying!

Isn't he of the same set of lawmakers who last year concluded that eliminating fuel subsidy at a go— not drawing it down as the previous administration had instead done— would have little to no impact on Nigerians and the economy? Many of them also went on TV to state this but we all know the eejits are mostly disconnected from the life of average Nigerians. So, why in the world would you think it makes sense to now suggest Ned Nwoko has so much more knowledge than the average Nigerian on the street, and use that as a basis to support this ludicrous idea he puts forward without so much as a pinch of evidence to back up the claims made?

3. You mean like FG stopped Fuel subsidy last year and Nigerians are still paying through the nose for that even that one decision?

garykoeman:

Ibos always using S.W and North identity to perpetuate their Cocaine business in Saudi.

Cocaine billionaire.

Shame of the country they are

Dude couldn't even own up to his tribe criminality yet trying to deflect that Igbos are the ones pushing drugs in Saudi Arabia.

Are Igbos the ones on death row in Saudi?

Dem say your tribesmen are chameleon and I tend to agree.

Tinubu is still a drug dealer tho!

helinues:
The killing could turn to suicidal.

Dey look face if you want to tackle people online.

Tackling Helinues, then be ready to ta iku laya

STFU abeg! I don weigh you and nothing come out!

You think being a nuisance on nairaland makes you a somebody?

Clown!

They lie without decorum.

A very pathetic region that breeds and celebrates liars and propagandists.

Forkthiefnubu:
So it is agreed that this government is an afoncracy, not a pan Nigerian government like that of GeJ and to an extent OBJ

He meant a government headed by a Yoruba you n1tw1t.

Kobojunkie:
What policy(or policies) did Ned Nwoko state that you claim suggests makes sense? Name one!

He was interviewed based the bill he sponsored and that's what the discussion is based on.

I don't know why you just want to twist the narration since you said his proposal is can't work

Ttalk:
■ He was interviewed based the bill he sponsored and that's what the discussion is based on.
■ I don't know why you just want to twist the narration since you said his proposal is can't work

What bill did he sponsor and how did you come to conclude that what he said and the bill itself makes sense... please answer the question already!

2. Where exactly did I say his proposal can't work, by the way? And what do you mean by Work?

Kobojunkie:
Should laws be made based on popular opinions though?

What wrong if the popular opinion will solve the problem.

What popular opinion has ever solved any problem as far as Nigeria is concerned?
Have the Nigerians ever had the chance at a referendum since at least 1960, to begin with?

Read your history, Midwest region was created out of referendum.

But that's not the issue here, we are talking about how we can ensure naira gain it's deserves value

Good... so we have an example to work with.

2. We were on the issue of popular opinions and to gather that we would need a sort of referendum, would we not?

On the issue of Naira gaining its value. Where is the evidence that the Naira's lost value is partly due to the use of foreign currency by a huge minority in transactions though? Where is the evidence that this bill would help the Naira gain its value? Where?

Kobojunkie:
Know what? What is it that the man said that you think made sense? Why do you people simply parrot whatever these kakistocrats feed you all without so much as doing your own research?

If you're not aware that Tinubu is clueless and can't solve Nigerian main problems then you're so slow and daft

Mrfixiit:

I didn't ask you of Tinubu but of your claim that Ned Nwoko's suggested bill makes sense and would solve the problem with the Naira.

Your comment is an evidence that education has lost its value in Nigeria.

What was the value of Naira compared to Benin Cefa in 5 years back?

If Cefa can gain value over naira in the past 5years shows a decline in naira value.

Now look up for the number of the elites that seeks medical and educational assistance abroad in the past 20 years compared to the number that seeks external assistance in the past 5years

Please answer the questions asked without the many distractions and deviations.

Topman7:
Tinubu should definitely look into this.

It’s a sound proposal by Nwoko.

unfortunately they won't because they are the biggest culprit, they hoard forex I'm large quantity to use it to influence primaries, inec and judges
