Agbadorians prowling the internet and social media to distract you with news about Igbo and Ikwerre people are hoping you don’t see this one, hoping you don’t see how bad things are going in Nigeria, hoping you won’t be resolute enough to vote this calamity out in 2027
They are senseless, shameless, hopeless, and brainless.

These thief's in government are using Igbo and youruba as tribal bait to distract Nigeria. And some useless Igbo and youruba are buying it. All of the elite even in opposition are dining and winning but me and you are here killing out self because of tribe.

Next month now I will go and marry my yorubas babe, and you tell me yorubas hate Igbo and Igbo hate yorubas...I think that's only in niaraland here and on twitter X.

If Una like make una use una head.

Even if Peter Obi will not be president, why can't we see the right thing and call it right?

Did you factor in what was used to defend the FX and petroleum in those eras?

It was audio before. If you know you know!
Intervention or subsidy are not illegalities in economic terrain, they are simply measures in place to ease cost and standard of living ...

Subsidy does not negate real cost instead it is a paid up of deficit balance to real cost

Summary
PDP presidents left Nigerians better than they met them
APC presidents left Nigerians much worse than before
I pity anyone supporting APC. PDP era had order, it wasn’t the best but it was nowhere near this wholesale stealing

oga shut up

Oil price rose during Buhari’s era at a point. What did APC do with it? Always making excuses for massive failures
You are daft! Oil price during Buhari’s regime was always lower than what he met. Growth is a relative concept! Oil during Buhari’s period was always lower than Jonathan so for a country dependent on oil for forex and for an economy that is dollar based GDP was always going to be lower. I am not saying Buhari manages the economy well, but compared to OBJ and GEJ he did more with the little he had than OBJ-GEJ did with the much they had. You can point to roads, rail etc that Buhari did.

The point is NIgerias GDP is largely dependent on the inflow of forex from OIL. Forex inflow determined exchange rate, exchange rate determines dollar calculation of our GDP. At no point in Buhari’s regime was the OIl price 80% of the level under GEJ.

Below is the oil price for the period

There is a difference between oil price spiking to $100 for a week and Oil being steadily at above $100 for years

Re: Nigeria’s GDP Per Capita By Successive Governments 1999 - 2027 by MakindeHassan: 9:13am On Feb 08, 2025
Obj met it at $400 and improved it to $1k+. When you tell them Obj was the best president ever they begin to argue. Some of them weren’t born then and don’t know how difficult life was in the 1990’s and how things began to change by 2001. Agbadorians dislike him for no reason because they have been brainwashed. The average Yoruba person doesn’t like Obj but will support this government that is taking us back to 1980.

If I say my mind for them they will just ban me here

What was the price of oil under Obasanjo?
A bad workman always quarrels with his tools.
True oil price fell under Buhari and that was his good excuse for crazy borrowing. What was done with the borrowed money.
Why didn't the borrowed billions impact on the GDP?
Now under Tinubu, oil prices have been mostly above $80 yet the borrowing continues and the poverty continues.
The GDP is falling yet your guy is able to buy a new jet for himself.
Oil prices were down yet under Buhari, every single budget was padded. Make this make sense.

Obasanjo's administration is the best here.

GDP Per Capita Change by Administration (USD):
Obasanjo (1999-2007): $$1790 - $$481.95 = $$1308.05 increase
Yar'Adua (2007-2010): $$2330 - $$1790 = $$540 increase
Jonathan (2010-2015): $$2720 - $$2330 = $$390 increase
Buhari (2015-2023): $$1640 - $$2720 = $$1080 decrease
Tinubu (2023-2025): $$835 - $$1640 = $$805 decrease (Projected)

I have explained to you. That when our GDP is translated into dollars, it is dependent on your exchange rate. Exchange rate is dependent on oil income and since oil is our major source of forex. Our GDP will always be impacted by our income from Oil.

Are you that daft that a simple concept eludes you or are you so far gone in your political or tribal views you have lost any capacity to grasp simple concepts?

Look my friend you will never hear me say Buhari was a good manager of the economy because that would be a lie but he did more for infrastructure with the little he had than any president before him since 1999 despite having less than they did. That is not to absolve him if his incompetence in managing the economy, it is just a statement of fact. For instance if exchange rate is so important and oil is so important to your exchange rate, how do you a man who was a former petroleum minister allow oil production to fall to as a low as 1mbpd? Nobody is a saint here.

The argument here is an academic one. Your economy can grow in your local currency but your dollar based GDP can fall because your exchange rate fell. The oil sector is less than 10% of our economy but it has the most impact because it determines our exchange rate. In Nigeria exchange rate determines everything else from GDP in dollars to the price of tomatoes. Did Buhari perform poorly in the oil sector yes! Primarily because of his failure to sign the PIA in time and because he oversaw the fall in output from 2m barrels to 1m. But that’s not the point. The international price of crude which determines our exchange rate and hence our Dollar GDP calculation is not in the hands of ANY president! The questions that an educated person should ask is when providence favored you with high oil prices what did you do with it? When they were low how did you manage the slump?

Some of you people just talk like uneducated eediots! One cannot have a fact based discussion without turning everything to politics or tribe or religion.

Jesus wept!

Every government from OBJ to GEJ grew Nigeria’s GDP per capita. Tinubu’s government is projected to cut our GDP per capita in half, that’s how value we’re going to lose as a people because of what happened in 2023
When Nigerians could barely feed, pay for accommodation and take care of their other welfares the value is already lost, when Tinubu finishes dealing with Nigerians we go understand the meaning of renewed shege, happiness be say Agbodorians have their special card and are insulated from the economic woes

Again you keep failing
You know nothing about GDP. Oil contributes less than 20% of the Nigerian GDP.
Under Jonathan, it was less than 14% at one time.
Your GDP is falling because all sectors not only oil is falling.
Manufacturing is failing,
The service sector is failing,
Oil prices was lowest understand Obasanjo.
Oil price is actually good under Tinubu.
Again if you understand economics you would have know that borrowing adds to your GDP.
How come all the borrowed dollars under Buhari and Tinubu did not reflect in your GDP.

The Government under APC has become the government of excuses. Like a 5 years old kid, they would rather blame everyone else than themselves.
You have become like APC, lazy and irresponsible.
You are an adult, learn to take responsibility.
