It is magical that in the midst of borrowing debt to GDP ratio is decreasing. That simply means debt is decreasing comparatively to GDP. Hard to believe. The only explanation i can find for that is GDP rebasing. 2
It did not occur to you that the country is servicing the debts. If you borrow from 10 sources and paying back, if the rate of paying back is faster than the new amount borrowed , the debt will obviously reduce.

Promising on what huh you thinkbeconomic development is by doling out forged statistics

By 2026 Tinubu's draconian taxs will further shoot down productivity and trigger inflation becos the market is volatile , so where does investment come in and without investment on what is the economic you envision going to boom

Have you seen his policies does it foster SMEs and productivity, naa propaganda boom you dey expect
Don't cry about development news.

IF you like name Angel gabriel, angel Natasha and angel rufai certified the economic is stable its meaning nothing

Ideally a stable economic will lure FDI, investor are not blind .. thats the main indicator truly the economy is stable

Inflation is still volatile and at double digit then you think you can confuse us economy is stable where are the ripple effects
Nigerias inflation has dropped for 6 consecutive months, but that means inflation is volatile in your head, because that is what you choose to interprete.

As far as you're concerned, the cup is half empty. No positivity, but pessimism. Best of luck to you.

most if not all debt under have deferred payment date. Meaning that they give a window to the debtor to put the money into use and start recouping capital. It ia that window and rebasing of GDP Tinubu is brutally exploiting.

still writing with little understanding, Tinubu is not just servicing debts that he borrowed, the question is not about moratorium of the debt , it is about servicing of the debt, which the government is doing. there is a reason why Nigeria paid completely IMF's debt, it is an example of debts acquired by the administration and paid off.

Wahalai Tinubu na man you be. The economy was dead and about to be buried but you brought it to life. Slowly but surely, life will return to every part of the nation.

Subsidy, gone!

Crude theft, gone!

Pipeline vandalism, gone!

FX racketeering, gone!

NNPC shua shua, gone!

Meagre revenue to subnationals, gone!

University student dropouts, gone!

All under 2+ years. What will happen in 8 years? Nigeria will be great again.

But wailers, losers, and coalition bandits are not happy.

still trying to sound smart.
Then can anyone pinpoint where the funds for repayment are comiing from? You claim you are repaying debts taken without the projects the debt has been used for generating any sizable income. The logical route is taxation and agressive mobup of forex combination. Another is import substitution. None has been reported lately.

Instead of attacking like kerosene child, provide logical explanation for revenues and expenses.

If you asking this question , then i wonder why i am wasting time? so, when Nigeria removed fuel subsidy, it did not occur to you that is improved net revenue?

That is worse than a local market village woman way of measuring inflation. So i should simply look at an individual life to measure inflation in a country, dont expect a reply.

it is obvious enough but how much was saved? Can you point that out? To best of my knowledge what was saved has been wasted on roads and flyovers.

Okonjo Iweala, Sanusi Lamido, Femi Adeshina, Charles Soludo and other seasoned economists confirmed the fact that Nigeria's economy is stable. Not some ignorant election losers, especially "the finishing specialist" and his sore followers who had zero understanding on macro and micro economics.
We are steadily recording increase in non oil revenue, GDP growth at 4.2%, stock market highest ever gains, trade surplus, we moved from being an oil import nation to oil export nation, there's steady increase in oil production with OPEC quota benchmark, our debt to revenue reduced to below 50%, debt to GDP projected to reduce further to around 39%. Couple of months back, we paid fully our IMF debts. Our credit ratings have improved everywhere from a negative to a positive within two years. All of these are as a result of a carefully thought out policy reforms. These are clear signs of stability, however, we need to translate these gains down the ladder, to spread developments to the grassroots which is where everyone agreed. But first, without growth, without the gains above, there can't be development.
The issue of food inflation is the biggest elephant in the room and this is mostly a human made factor, Banditry that is bedevilling farmers from going to farms and mass producing is largely a man made factor, it has nothing to do with Govt policy. Buhari tried anchors borrowers to assist farmers but it ended up being a flog, local farmers became more greedy rather than solve the problem of hunger. The current administration has learnt not to follow same old failed route but to import some food to help crash food prices. The President has also approved the creation of forest guards in the meantime, but a state police would provide a lasting solution.
Again, this is a big indictment on the Southern region, if you could still depend on the north for food despite being plagued by banditry, it therefore means, the South is not only mentally lazy but productively lazy. St this crucial point, the south should be coming to the rescue, engage in large scale mechanized farming in all the 17 states and feed the region. The south is even supposed to transport food to the northerners to be able to eat while they're unable go to farms. Why can't the South return the favor?. Unfortunately, the lazy south still depending on trucks of foods coming down south from a plagued north on daily basis, what a shame. All your Governors are sitting on fat allocations doing nothing. The Governors are in charge of lands in their states but are paying no attention to farming. How many youth empowerment programs are they bringing to the people in each local government?, how many traders empowerment in each local government?.
time manager, is this below the confirmation by the experts of the stability and the sign that GDP to debt ratio will reduce?

When some people hear a positive report about Nigeria economy they feel SAD. why?? Kudos to president Tinubu.
Oga all this things na English.

It's 1 million miles away from the reality Nigerians face daily. From hyper inflation, unemployment, lack DFI, insecurity and corruption.

You need to use your 🧠, because if you don't, you will start hallucinating about an imaginary Disney world.

so you think Nigeria taking more loan equals Nigeria not servicing her debt..... ? huh

Your error of reasoning is worrisome. Nigeria factored taking loans in the budget for the year, likewise servicing its debt. Nigeria was servicing debt with about 97% of its revenue at some point in 2023, the last i heard in 2025, it is now 50%.
