I laugh my ass out when i see you comparing the USA with Nigeria. You really need help.

Don't kid yourself. Which of us really needs help?

Me or you who cannot comprehend facts. The whole point of my comparison was to show you that everyone borrows. Federal governments, state governments, companies, individuals.

PMB will borrow to make up his inflated $6t budget. Fashola and Tinubu gave Lagos little development compared to the giant debt profile they left in their wake.

So I ask again, what is your point?

Coming from someone that went to borrow to pay salaries this year?

If she managed the economy well will nigeria be giving bail out funds to states?
If she had managed the economy well would we be in the mess we find ourselves?

Stupidity is when you think a finance minister has the power to change Sports, power and the fortunes of other ministries.
She was doing her Job. No matter how much you sycophants praise Fashola, he is not going to change anything in Health, Agriculture or Sports.
He has his own field to concentrate on.
Those ministries had their budgets and accounts, handled by ministers from other parts of the country.
Okonjo Iweala was never going to dictate to Minister Kwankwaso on how to run his ministry. Nigeria is a complex nation and only pure Patriots can help it. Unfortunately there are not many of the Patriots in Nigerian politics. If your President can go to the outside world and tell them that he will marginalise some parts of the nation because they gave him 5% vote, don't you think he will even do worse behind the camera?

Animals are still ruling Africa. When humans take over, things will change.

NOI was the coordinating minister of the federation and sat as a senior members of GEJ cabinet for over 4 years.

Her chance to endorse the progress of these institutions she now advocates for was most present and she had the capacity to ensure the country was in a position to source finance for projects and influence the relationship with private partners.

She knew the questions that needed to be asked, knew the answers they may give to the progress and prosperity of the nation and its people , either through negligence or corruption she decided not to ask them to our collective deficit.

Stop sounding smart, we would see what Fashola and his companions make of the opportunity presented them.

Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, you are a MOR*N ! As the minister for finance and co-ordinating minister of the Nigerian economy, what did you and your government do to support the private sector? Instead you chased away manufacters to other neighbouring West African countries and you have the gods to spit nonesense.

My conclusion, if the west and all those organisations you are working with are really credible and serious, they will never have anything to do with people like you but of course, destroying the Nigerian economy is in their favour and you were their agent in the last government.

Shame on you Okonjo, you are a female Judas. God will expose you very soon.
What gibberish is this bitter soul spewing?

Some people are indeed pathetic and shameless.
How can a woman Mrs Okonjo Iweala one of the de facto President in GEJ era who single handedly coordinated and supervised our economy to stupor has the audacity to advise the present administration?

She lacks both the moral and philosophical right to advise the Nigerian government not even a state in Nigeria.

She had a double chance in two previous administrations to show her tactfulness, skills and resourcefulness to prove herself and write her name in gold but she failed woefully.

You don't give what you don't have, she might be an economic guru but she's a helpless novice in the Nigerian economic terrain.
She should keep her unsolicited advice to herself except she's telling us that she's a better spectator than a player.


Puff puff was imposed on OBJ by the Western powers to destroy the Nigerian economy and primarily to sink Nigeria into the abyss. If you want to read or know more about people like puff puff, read the book The confessions of an economic hit man.

So now if the west is that to our problems then why does the president keep running to them for help? Or hasn't he realized the points you made about the west?

That is world politics for you.
Truth is that the world is structured in such a way that you still have to embrace them. They are like a woman to a man. Men complain of women but can't do without them most of the time. We still need them to help solve the problems which they created majorly.
Ever wondered why the US Fed ISIS to become the Monster they are today. Ever looked at the Iraqi and Libyan situations. Why would the west cause so much chaos in some countries yet the people turned back to them for soccour.
Thats the way it is for now. As Hadley Chase puts it "they hold the four Aces " .

Was this not the same woman that promoted the interests of the western powers (World Bank, IMF, Paris and London Clubs etc) when she was in government under Obasanjo and Jonathan? Was she not the same woman that rushed to pay these people over $36billion dollars to them when other countries pressed further and eventually got better debt forgiveness. At the end of the day, it was her cronies that benefitted from the commission accruing from the payment. Again, at least $10billion(according to her own admission) went missing through fraudulent oil subsidy payments under her watch as Minister of Finance

Corrupt and clueless woman. Puppet of the west

But I thought she got a great job in a great position in an International organization. If she was irrelevant they wouldn't have jumped on her immediately after leaving office. Or are the Americans we run to for help now dumb to fight over her to come work with them?

Does knowing how to run an economy translate to getting a great job in a big company?

I think i agree with okonjo Iweala. It takes an average of $1.5m to set up a waste to electricity generating plant at a land fill site.

US has more than 500 such plants converting solid degradable waste into energy. This is a cheap method of electricity generation.

Peugeot, Nissan, Hyundai, just rolled off new brands from their assembly plants. Toyota, Mercedes, Honda, Ford register interest to set up plants.

For the first time in Nigeria, we were self-sufficient on rice, with million dollar rice Mills set up. This was the hallmark of the agricultural revolution.

Revitalizing the moribund rail sector.

Should I continue?
