When you listen to this Prof, you actually realise that Tinubu is one of the BEST, if not THE BEST PRESIDENT Nigeria has ever had.[/b]

Others before him (apart from Gen. Murtala Ramat Muhammed in the 1970s) lacked the courage to do ANYTHING he has done.

THAT'S WHY HE'S BEING THREATENED BY TRUMP.

[i]Thankfully, our Chinese and Russian partners and allies have warned him not to dare try it.

Now he realises Nigeria, the Giant of Africa, and a BRICS partner member, is not isolated, and cannot be threatened.

Dellorisation ko, poundination ni. Country that sells crude in dollars, pegs budget in dollars, determine import duty in dollars, receive foreign remittance in dollars, collect loans and raise dollar bonds, even keep it's reserve in dollars is talking about dumping dollars

Mpeace:
Story story story. Nigeria started the sale of oil in naira long before the US threat of invasion. The policy was approved in July 2024 and started in October 2024. Meanwhile threat of invasion started over a year thereafter.
Please look for another conspiracy theory, this one cannot fly

MrBadNews:
Conspiration theorist are at it again oo, "De-dollarizaton policy".

Kemetian:
So what if it took a year? It's not just about oil sales. Nigeria is actively taking steps toward de-dollarisation — shifting or planning shifts in financing to naira, promoting local currency usage, and rethinking dollar reliance especially in trade/commodity contexts. But the process is partial, challenging, BUT ONGOING.

For instance, we have the International Finance Corporation (IFC) agreed with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to scale up local-currency financing across sectors such as agriculture, housing, real-estate, infrastructure, SME and the creative industries. This is aimed at reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar for financing and lowering FX risk.

It's a slow process, but that's where Nigeria is headed, and dictator Trump is peeing his pants about it.

If Africa's biggest nation is pursuing this path, it gives a green light to other countries in Africa and beyond.

America's ONLY power is the fact the world uses the dollar as its reserve currency.

Take that away and America would be like Somalia.

Kemetian:
Oh of course, in your head, America, for SOME STRANGE REASON, has ignored the 40,000 annual CHRISTIAN gun casualties in America to come and fight for 'Nigerian Christians'.

After all they are a country of 'perfect white angels' who don't mind ignoring their own tragedies, just to fly in and save you, African!

Won't you ask yourself what they really want?

The day you so-called 'Nigerians' start to use your heads the way the Chinese and others do, is the day your lives will get better.

ruggedtimi:
funny statement. Like say Trump know all these details. Try something else pls. Your politicians use dollars pass anything, some havnt seen Naira notes in ages.

SmartPolician:
That's his opinion and he's honestly entitled to it. The point is, the issue that Trump wants to address still lives with us.

Human lives are precious to sane minds more than anything else. This administration has demonstrated that it's insincere in its war and it's incapable of fighting terrorism. I welcome any foreign intervention in that regard.

Kemetian:
Instead of foolishly ''welcoming foreign intervention'', take just 10 minutes to study the history of US ''interventions'' in conflicts.

I don't know how you people claim to be intelligent and educated, yet you reason like dwarfs.

If somebody says he wants to invade your country to solve a problem, the FIRST THING YOU SHOULD DO IS CHECK THEIR TRACK RECORD.

Have you done that?

Name the president of Libya today.

No?

Ok name the president of Iraq?

No?

Ok, name the president of Afghanistan?

No?

What unites those 3 countries? US INVASION, FOLLOWED BY TOTAL DESTRUCTION.

That's why you can't name any of their leaders, EVEN MANY YEARS after the US left.

Their countries are shattered.

SmartPolician:
FYI, I don't give a flying f**k at this time! Anything is better at this point.
This isn't a country; this is a jungle.
Perhaps their invasion will mark the end to this shit-hole.

Kemetian:
You sound like a little child.

Today you can walk around and go to Shoprite and clubs, markets and banks in the south easily without fear.

When a US invasion starts, what was confined to BORNO STATE will spread across all Nigeria, as terrorists take revenge.

Next thing, suicide bombs going off in Onitsha, Enugu, Lagos, Aba.

Then that ''INSECURITY'' you keep moaning about even though you are safe and far from the heat, will finally become your DAILY REALITY IN YOUR FACE, thanks to your white 'saviour' Trump..

NaijaRoyalty:
Tinubu is a disaster to this country.. stop trying to spin the narrative Oga. Trump's concern has nothing to do with dollar .

Christians are being attacked daily by the jihadists in Nigeria and your president is doing absolutely nothing about it .

Nigeria needs trump intervention at this point because it's obvious tinubu don't know what he's doing.

SmartPolician:
Oga, save your sermon!

Kemetian:
Why does Trump care more about Nigerian christians than the 40,000 American christians slaughtered in his own country annually?

Wanna see their statistics? 250,000 since 2019.

WHY DO THEY CARE MORE ABOUT YOU, AFRICAN, THAN THEMSELVES?

Baxilexi:
A non-industrialized country speaking about de-dollarization. C’mon guys… this is a joke gone too far.

Medications - dollars
Foods imports - dollars
Cars - dollars
Oil service firms - dollars
Internet- dollars
Defense equipment- dollars
Airfare remittances- dollars
Political jamboree/junketing - dollars
Political pilfering- dollars

Our reserves have climbed because Nigerians are poorer now, and not because of genius policies. A Nigerian earning half a million Nigeria monthly (1:50000) gets circa $330 monthly. This is the cost of 2 low end Nike air-force 1s, he’d rather feed his family that shop online, now imagine what life is like for lower earners.

Trump a man that can see through the B/S of some migrants parasitic love for America, a man who has brought over 11 trillion dollars in less than 2 years to the economy, who has made all radio and TV stations glued to the White House and returned America to its former superpower status, please OP never put him in the same sentence as Tinubu.

Baxilexi:
How does gunfights/ dueling (a western culture) equate terrorism?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duel

This only becomes logical when all Nigerians have the right to purchase arms then I’ll support your argument.

Until then, we need help.

Kemetian:
This is nonsense. These things are all available without the use of dollars.



STOP WATCHING FOX NEWS.

Trump's approval rating in America stands at 38% and falling.

He's considered a national embarrassment in America. A buffoon and criminal convict with no business being in the White House.
