Pls how does "Andy" come into the discussion?

What is "dept"?

The fact that you are not like obi and you have knowledge of inter-governmental diplomacy, I am surprised that you could not answer the simple questions.

Let's try again:

1. what is the help and assistance that nigeria needs from other able countries?

2. how well has tinubu been doing his job on the home front?

3. how well has he used the resources available in nigeria to improve the living standard of nigerians?
Stupid questions.

World Bank commended his reforms

Today, the WTO-DG, Okomjo-Iweala hailed his reforms as on the right track.
Only enemies with hateful mindset fail to see the light.

TheBizGenius:
Hmmmm.

The difference between Tinubu and Obi? Macroeconomics and Microeconomics. Up to down and Bottom Up approaches. Simple.

To Tinubu, it's better I create an enabling environment where big companies thrive but while doing it, people will steal. The bigger the bread, the more the crumbs while cutting.

To Obi, it's better to keep the money so no one will steal and the people can run small businesses on their own.

Unfortunately for Tinubu, most youths now are at the survival level and need that Obi offer bad bad. And Obi knows it too, so he's marketing exclusively to that group.

May the better marketing genius among the 2 win jare.
How many times are you going to be told that what you put above is not the meaning of micro and macro economics.

How did you pass WAEC?

No country lives in isolation

Nigeria suffered the flight of production organisations for years up until recently.ack of locally production was the major factor behind Nigeria's economic downturn.
Therefore, we need foreign investments and they need to be enticed to come.
The onus is on the president to see to this.
No country lives in isolation but we don't have any ambassador in any single Nation of the world.

You guys talk in abstract.

No ambassador in any single country? Nonsense, please learnt to think for yourself, not them tell me.

Say that there is no politically appointed ambassadors @ the comment, just career ones.

Lol.

Funny enough, I didn't take economics as a subject in waec when I passed over 30yrs ago.

I have a purely engineering background and a doctorate in an one area of business like that.

I simply divided the economy into micro and macro sections as we do in the business world when tackling issues.

I am so sorry if my definition offended your technical sensibilities. I truly am sorry.

Unfortunately though, Google doesn't help the issue as it keeps backing me up. I need to update the app, I guess.

was it google you asked before you said this?



1. what are the connections that tinubu has made every time he is "out making connections"?

2. what is the benefit that has accrued to nigeria and nigerians as a result of these connections?

3. is tinubu the ceo of a super successful country?

4. does the constitution define tinubus job as president as one of marketing and image making or one of delivering social services to the people of nigeria?
Oga free me. You're giving me a headache. Na by force?

Of what benefit were those ambassadors when they were in place gulping billions of dollars yet non-productive and unusefull to Nigerians ?
Besides, a country does not necessarily need to have an ambassador to have her affairs carried out.

If he appointed the ambassadors, you are the same that will cry foul.

Trouble with you people is that your deep-seated hatred blindfolds you from reality.

you mean that in 2years only 4 presidents visited nigeria.

how many countries has tinubu visited in contrast?

how do these visits eflect Nigeria’s strategic importance in Africa and its growing role in global diplomacy?

what is the product of the purpose and highlights you listed above?
I doubt if you read the significance of the visits in my post but rather dwells on the numerical numbers. What Tinubu is doing for the country 1000 Obis combined can not even attempt.

Of what benefit also is the president moving up and down like Ajala the Traveller?

Also, If what you're saying is that ambassadors costs the country billions in cost, then you should know that the trips of the president also cost billions. Not even to talk of the frivolous spending this government has embarked upon like 39billion for renovations, 712 bullion for airport renovations and 10 billion for Solar installation in Aso Villa.

Then, saying a country doesn't need ambassadors means you're either an illiterate or just f.o.o.l.i.s.h cause there's a reason we have consulates in all nations. Will the president be in all countries where Nigerians are in at all time? This thing is just common sense.

But you're right about one thing. I have hatred. Hatred for corruption, for incompetence, for nonsense.

And those words define this government and their supporters. That includes you.

For one thing, it is preposterous for you to assume that I am corrupt, for another, your crass hypocrisy reeks to high heavens if you claim to hate corruption yet support Obi hose record of high level corruption and incompetence is legendary.

I am at pains to see where I said that I supported non-appointment of ambassadors..
I only insinuated that this may have been part of the means of cutting costs.
Except for mischief, how on earth can you compare travelling costs with the overall costs of all the ambassadors combined ?
Perhaps, your low level of consular workings makes you not to know that though there may be no ambassadors, but consulate affairs continue undisturbed.

Finally, I would rather not get into name calling like you which is the hallmark of Obi supporters but which everybody knows snarls of illiteracy and immaturity.

Obi is an opposition leader, he's doing exactly what he's supposed to do.
During Jonathan's tenure when Tinibu was chattering like a lost bird, I'm sure you didn't see any issues with that
He's not being a responsible opposition leader. He's acting more like an opportunist. Although I won't be surprised if you don't see the difference.

Was Tinubu being a responsible opposition leader when he jumped into the streets to protest against subsidy removal?

Was Tinubu being a good leader when he refered to Jonathan as an ineffectual buffoon?

Well, Tinubu has now shown he's worse than an ineffectual buffoon. Deal with it

In other words there's no difference between Obi and Tinubu.
Once again you have shot yourself in the foot.

"The situation we find ourselves in is deeply worrisome. Our President, who has not found it worthy to visit any of our troubled states, takes joy in travelling to foreign countries at the slightest invitation or excuse. Often departing several days even before the events he’s invited to" H.E. Peter Obi
