Before Asiwaju became the President, Nigeria was not rosy

In 2021, I watch a video of kids in Katsina, who were consuming raw grass due to extreme hunger
And in that same period, you were a top notch Psy Baba citizen 😁😁😁

Sadly, it was 18k and that 17k you mentioned is more powerful than current 70k

You need to save 4months minimum wage to buy brand new tear rubber motorcycle but now even 1yr can't even afford to buy same by now

What's the price of cement under 18k minimum wage compared to now?

Bag of rice cost 6500 under the 18k minimum wage which means you can buy 2 bags and still have 5k left but how much is it now?
I think it was 19,800 cos I was serving then as corper in ekiti and our federal allaweee was 19,800.. regardless be it 17 k 18k or even the 19800 I mentioned it's far better to current 77k minimum wage. Then we had a far better purchasing power to now . He kukuma said it that he will reduce the purchasing power of the people and widen the tax net and he exactly so.

Why not governments at all levels do more to translate the achievements to more Nigerians. Why only the FG? What about your state governors and local governments?
The Federal Government controls the levers that affect virtually every state.
In fact BAT currently have 32 governors out of 36 states

Both the fiscal architecture through which states receive their allocations.
and with the political structure of the country.

FG cannot simply wash its hands of the consequences of the system it controls.
If Abuja has the power to shape the system, Abuja has a responsibility to help enforce the rules of that system.

It's bad to ask citizens with limited power to fight on multiple fronts against governments with vastly greater power.

Yet some people say nothing is happening in Nigeria. It's just that Nigerians are yet to feel the impact. Simple

MrRichmond:
That "kiddo" is right and obviously way smarter than you.

The purchasing power of the naira has depreciated by roughly 85% since Jonathan left office.

That 17k from 2015 is worth N121k today.

learn from that kiddo, mr old man.
The APC is all about 'Voodoo Economy'!

The minimum wage should be at least ₦200,000 as a result of Naira devaluation and fuel subsidy removal.
Re: Then And Now: Nigeria’s Economy Under President Tinubu - TheCable by eniteden(m): 10:32am On Aug 25
This one just dey everybody post dey work for him 30k cheesy ride on brother but remember nothing u mentioned up there affects the ordinary poor parent in the village or your so called akara business ur compatriot talked about.

Everything u mentioned only benefit the rich a little sef nothing much there oga u and i know this.

Nothing u mentioned brought the common man's food rice back to 10k per 50kg or groundnut oil for frying akara to 5k or beans to 300naira or fuel that affect every business to 150 per litre undecided U see small 30k because of hunger u are allover people's comment section spilling lubish in support of ur oppressor grin

Minimum wage under Jonathan was N17k. It was Buhari that increased it to N30k.

Kiddo, I'm not your guy. Show some respect pls. Thanks.

Is it not the same BATISTS? It was in 2020 that land lorders were locked leading to massive inflation of price of food commodities
BATists were shouting border remain closed while kids were starving in Katsina
Meanwhile UNICEF and MSF says more kids starved in 2023-2024 than known in the history of Nigeria

Re: Then And Now: Nigeria’s Economy Under President Tinubu - TheCable by Skj13777: 11:13am On Aug 25
This statistics is faulty. What is value of naira then and now. So your supposed to divide any current value by a factor of 3 because exchange rate was 460/$ now is 1360/$. So whatever you state currently has to be divided to equate previous figures. Secondly the hardship now is second to non. Also the increase in poverty is unacceptable.

There’s literally a thread on front page where Peter disagreed with Atiku on the return of subsidy.

Why are you being mischievous?

Yes but it was a small percentage. India had the highest number of extremely poor people before 2015
Nigeria overtook India in that disgraceful statistics in 2016 when we earned the title of the world's poverty capital
APC is a weapon fashioned against the prosperity of Nigerians

This your minimum wage own made me laugh

Jonathan's 17k has more value than Tinubu's 70k but na statistics we go chop?

Guy! cheesy
Voodoo economics at its finest! shocked

All this 'wonderful' things have been happening to the economy, yet Nigerian individuals, families and businesses are feeling worse off now than at any point since the return to so called 'democracy' in 1999!

The bottom-line indicating improving economic conditions should be: better value of the currency, translating to better capacity of individuals and businesses to afford goods and services; more jobs and less jobs losses; less borrowing of foreign loans; infrastructural/investment rebirth IN ALL REGIONS OF THE COUNTRY and not just the south-west/Lagos; etc-etc-etc! Is this presently the case? You don't bang on about how you're giving more money to states because of removal of subsidy and tout that as a 'achievement', when in actuality states are now receiving less money in real terms than they received before you arrived with your yeye hope agenda!
