Am sure you saw the new jamb cut off mark? Buhari banned the students union and that of the doctors then,what makes u think education will improve where an illiterate is the leader,have you slept since one year now or have you been drunk since one year now?

Thanks Saudi Arabia....see what you have done.

Trying to force the Americans out of the oil business.....by overproducing.

Nigeria should get off oil.

Modified: I see some PDP slaves blaming APC. Make I laff at them.

This is not a defence of APC....for once.Just stating facts.

1.The USA is now buying 3% of our oil...thanks to the production of shale oil.

2.Saudi Arabia is overproducing...so as to force the oil prices down....and force those shale oil companies out of business.

3.As a result...oil fell from $123 in June 2014 to $65 now.

4.Nigeria is not earning enough forex from oil.

5.Our Naira falls in value due to lack of forex.

6.Therefore...Nigeria must diversify from oil....and become industrial.

7.Nothing to do with Buhari. Everything to do with PDP and their corrupt ways for the last 16 years...with nothing left for education and innvoation. Also...our lazy state governors who prefer overspending oil money to innovative economic development.

You can blame Buhari if after two years....Nigeria is still oil dependent.

I knew GEJ govt traded oil barrel for $120 for over 6 years.This should have brought an unprecedented reserve swell.We are not even talking of the primary excess crude acct which should have risen because of the $120 sale of barrel.But I gez you knw he spent the whole eca and nothing left.If we had saved enough all these years,this won't have arise

Even if we saved enough...once oil prices keep going down....we would still be broke in five years (We would be just delaying the evil day).

We have to get off oil.

Money is the life line of any business,
no money, no success,
take money out of any business,
the business is distressed.
I know to begin, you must have a vision,
you will get your business off the ground if that vision is fueled by a passion,
but to make it big and turn it into a brand with massive loyalty,
you will need to invest good money to ensure it's sustainabiity and longetivity,
money is the crux,
for a small beginner, where will this money come from?...

1.JAMB is no longer important like it used to be. Even if you score 300 in jamb...so long as you fail post utme...no university would look at you.Even JAMB knows that.

2.The ban on unions was during military rule...when there was no Constitution remember? Now...we have one. And Buhari cannot ban any union....he has to go to court...or pass a law...not easy under democracy.(And if he tries...impeachment...which is possible now that the NA is not a rubber stamp).

3,I do not drink alcohol of any kind.

guilty conscience called your attention right? Going by the above outline, u blamed PDP and down the list, u blamed the governors, and the last I checked, PDP wasn't in charge of the 36 states, it's high time u call a spade a spade. APC is now in charge, just in case u av forgotten and anything that comes out of these period, either good or bad, must be ascribed to them.

If PDP had developed the power sector...instead of decieving us from OBJ to GEJ....we won't be here.

I am watching APC. I also know 2 months cannot repair 16 years of mess.

After all...when we criticsed PDP when they were in power....you people told us they were working. Well...we see the effect of their work. An oil dependent economy by May 29....with a naira that fell from 114 to the dollar to 180 to the dollar

APC should work hard....and should start talking industries...but this is PDP's mess

1.PDP had 16 years to get us off oil and into industrial development. They did not.

2.APC must use this mess as an opportunity to get us off oil and into industrial development

3.That is how I will be judging APC. So far...some noises about diversification. If they are serious.....then it is to be hoped that Nigeria will be free from resource dependency....or out APC goes in 2019.(That is why I did not support PDP....and if APC is found wanting out they go.).

4.I have said in times past that governors need to be serious about industrial development...during the GEJ admin. If you have time...go through my posts.

5.And don't call me a tribalist. Because I am not one.

Even then....it is not enough. It may be enough for APC supporters...but it isn't enough for me as a Nigerian.


What I want is four new refineries (via private investment), power up to 20000mw....and Ajaokuta working again...as well as states doing what they were meant to do...use existing resources to develop industrially....not sell to some Western factory at half price...and share the money!

Fed gvt cannot fund the demand by the bidders to import goods or to send dollars to import raw materials.

The reason is simply the unimaginable dipping of the foreign reserve from over $80b to $29b by GEJ administration.

Let's give GMB the coming years to build the reserve and repair refineries to stop demand of dollars to import refined crude.
Yeah he dipped into it to improve the power supply, working refinery, 2nd niger bridge construction u are acrediting to d dullard.

the bank puts a markup on theirs to make money just as normal BDCs do.

Till then...you remain an old fool.
