Tinubu's Adviser Tope Fasua Will Dance Naked In The Market. by Asonaijaaso(op):
Where does Tinubu get this Special Advisers that have lost touch with reality.
This people want to see al Nigerians dead due to starvation.
Look at him lying on national TV, that the cheapest food in New York is $20


Dr. Tope Fasua, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Economic Affairs, has highlighted the complexities of poverty measurement while defending the value of the naira in local terms, comparing the cost of living in Nigeria with that of the United States.

Speaking on the MicOnPodcast with Seun Okinbaloye, Fasua argued that many Nigerians misunderstand the concept of multi-dimensional poverty, which is often used in global poverty indices.

“Some people don’t understand the meaning of multi-dimensional poverty,” he said. “They think multi-dimensional poverty is worse than food poverty. What multi-dimensional means is that maybe the school your children attend is too far from you, or the hospital, and they categorise you as multi-dimensional.”

He went on to explain that despite the high exchange rate of the naira to the dollar, the purchasing power of local currency in Nigeria remains significant compared to the cost of living abroad.

“$1 is N1,500 – it’s a lot of money for many people in Nigeria. $10 won’t buy you lunch anywhere in the

U.S., sometimes you need at least $20, that is N30,000 in Nigeria,” Fasua explained.


Using relatable examples, Fasua described how ordinary Nigerians can still enjoy decent meals without spending much.

“I will tell you what you can do with $5 – that is N7,500 – if you are not going to eat in some eyebrow places. In Gwarinpa, there are some people that sell Boli and fish and you will eat for N1,500. If you know where you are coming from,” he added.

These are the people "advising" the president on "economic" matters.

One chance special adviser.

This man is tone deaf and should be nowhere near the president to advise him on anything.

There’s this shawarma guys in the US that sell shawarma and other Middle eastern food, what they require is you to bring your own plate or bag of chips or whatever you want to put the meat and fillings on.

Those fillings sell for $10 or less and it’s a lot of food.

Can I get a lot of food with meat for 1500 Naira in Nigeria today?

I used to respect Tope Fasua back then. His posts prior to his political appointment was always insightful.
Upon his appointment by the current government, I don't understand this former presidential aspirant anymore.

Why not use the #10 to $10 comparison, or is the $ now Nigeria's official currency? How much is the federal minimum wage in the same America that $10 can't buy you a good meal? For every USA resident that will do a $1 per hour job, there are over 50 Nigerians that will do same job for a daily pay here. Some will even give testimonies in church for securing such a job. Stop arguing and supporting nonsense.

After this administration and he continues his presidential ambition from where he stopped, I will never take him serious.
Is it safe to assume that we rarely have people with strength of character in the political space?
