Did you read the terms of the loan? Interest will not be paid till after ten years and repayment which will be spread over 30 years, will be at a lower interest rate than usual.

What you should be concerned about are the efforts that are being made to grow the economy so we do not feel the pinch when repayment commences eventually.



The underlying justification of any loan is purpose.

Jonathan in March this year borrowed another $2 billion under the guise of strengthening our currency after spending $5 billion on his Presidential campaign. Who in his right senses will not condemn this senseless misplacement of priorities?

Contrast that with PMB that is borrowing to rebuild the devastated NE and restoring a semblance of hope for Nigerians caught in the war. You're comparing apples and oranges.
After ten years abi...but interest will still be paid....and it's for rebuilding north east dey no talk about economy here ooo ITK

No doubt. ... the NE needs some support but why must that be on borrowed funds?

Is this not the same people complaining about borrowing by previous govt?

People borrow to invest and Buhari is borrowing to rebuild. Will the NE generate the funds to payback or they intend to pay using oil proceeds?

When will they borrow to rehabilitate the SS after years of exploitation with no FG prescence to show? 

When will they borrow to rebuild the SE after the civil war wreckage?

 Its funny that Buhari intends to use oil money to rebuild a region that was used through imnense propaganda to oust GEJ from office.... even when the oil money is from GEJ's region. Until justice is done, Nigeria will know no peace.

This duara dul.lard is a big joke, you've not finish winning the war against BH, and you're already borrowing money to rebuild North East. .. Only God knows how much you will borrow when you finally win the war.

i hope the rest of nigeria doesnt have to pay for the stupidity of those animals!!!! only the northeast should pay for this rubbish.. infact why is federal government borrowing? let the states go borrow on their own
nigeria doesn't even need to borrow to rebuild ,all the nation needs is planning and efficient management of the revenues coming in .if the nation is going to repay back this loans ,why doesn't buhari stop all governors from collecting security votes and channel that towards NE rebuilding the total security votes of all state governors in nigeria for 3 years is enough to rebuild the nE

If you don't grow the economy, you will struggle to pay interest when the time comes, no one said the money was to strengthen the economy. Try to understand before criticising.

According to Awolowo logic. The NE through Boko haram has depleted Nigeria's petro dollars, as the country has been forced to spend Billions of dollars it would have spent in building infrastructures all over the country, on Combating NE Boko haram.

The right thing to do is not to spend money rebuilding the NE, the right thing is to find a way to recover all the the money the FG spent securing the NE breakaway from Nigeria. In this case, NE people and wealthy individuals must be made to bear the blunt of their economic burden on the country, through this BVN stuff, money should be deducted from their accounts to cover for the money spent on securing their region from Boko haram they nurtured and grew. The FG can do better by reducing their monthly allocation and sharing it to other states.

NE must be made to pay for nurturing and unleashing Boko haram on Nigeria, and not rewarded.

This is Awolowo economics 101. But this is not being applied here. And I ask why?

Show me a part of the report that indicated that the loan is going to be paid back by the NE and not by the FG.

From the look of the report, it would appear the Money would be paid back by the FG.

There is nothing wrong in obtaining loans but what are the repayment plans? This man will not be there in 10 years time when the honeymoon period of the loan expires so it will be another person that will be saddled with repaying the loan.

A region that destroyed itself is rebuilt, but the Niger-Delta that is destroyed by the government is ignored.

Niger Delta destroyed itself, the individuals vandalizing the pipelines and causing oil leaks and explosions are from the Niger Delta, they are are the ones polluting their own water , kidnapping citizenry and causing havoc. The FG has been very kind to NG with a robust amnesty deal, extravaganza of contracts to militants , scholarships and their own ministry of the ND what else would you want.


Blame yourselves for not making good use of what you got, you can blame GEJ

In as much as that region needs to be rebuilt and regardless of what the terms are - don't you think it is too early in his government to start borrowing? He hasn't even selected his team (ministers) and I don't think he has established his budget and a blueprint of what he wants to do. Or was this part if the deal reached with the US?

This is a classic case of putting the cart before the horse. And drawing comparisons with GEJ who was an utter failure won't make it right.

The loan terms are typical of all World Bank and IMO loans and I have no qualms with it, I actually think the loans are a good idea if judiciously used...My grouse is with the hypocrisy of it all, considering the way the APC vehemently opposed and criticized these same World Bank loans with similar terms and conditions when NOI was finance Minister
Tell me, was the loans used or shoved into the pockets of some individuals?
