I weep for the so called Nigerian youths!
So it has come to the extent that they cannot understand simple information?

Airlines are doing businesses in Nigeria, footing all their bills but cannot take home their profits thus they may reduce the presence due to the dollar restrictions - if you are in their shoes what will you do?

If the western world made it a low that you cannot leave America or Britain with what you have earned in their nation how will Nigerians see it?

From your understanding is this policy not a negative one for Nigerians and our economy?

Can someone suggest to foreigners how best to take their hard earned money home!

Sall:
When corruption money no longer find it way out this foreign countries comes up with excusess and threat . They had better go fork they self. This change and more stringent policy are coming. NIGERIA WILL BE GREAT AGAIN.

Bro you dnt get it, nobody is saying they shld not take their profit home,

Can a nigeria doing business in UK/US allow to accept Payment in Naira from UK/US citizens.

when the business get to Nigeria, he changes his dollar to Naira.

So the Airline can go back to their various country and change the Naira to their dollar/pound.

with that their will be demand for Naira in other country, and that will help strengthen our Naira,

simply because the demand for dollar is high in Nigeria that one of the major reason our naira is in a free fall.

I know of some places in Ikoyi, that shooping complex where they only accept dollar, for payment of Goods, we have same in Abuja too. it worrisome.

I believe you read the main information from the media.

The issue here is that there is a RESTRICTION on foreign businesses in Nigeria taking their profits home. Is Naira an international currency?
The airline operators are not asking the government not to have restrictions but banned their access to forex is a going to boast trade.
Consequently, you will ask Chinese firms to collect Naira from their business partners and then change it to Yen - in a championship, the winner takes the gold while others scramble for the remaining wares.

Ok, these airlines are ready to take Naira out and change yet the government is against taking our currency out - what is the wisdom in all these?

As much as nations have what we refer to as sovereignty, to remain relevant in the world economy there is a great need for inter-dependence among nations. How will Nigeria survive, let me know.

No one is stopping Nigerians abroad from demanding their salary in Naira, so also for payment of different things.
You are aware that your Naira has little or no value intenationally, and you cannot use force to add value to it.
Mind you this restrictions are offering the black market a stronger service value.
May be, Nigerians will open financial institutions abroad where Naira will be sold to business entities coming to Nigeria-abi?

I take dollar bills to Nigeria. So they should take naira bills to their countries, find a bureau d' change and do the needful.

But wait. The amount of money involved would be wired out only. Does it mean the banks' computers are down?
The airlines should just be honest and say that Nigeria wahala don tire them...from adulterated Jet A1 to possible disembark with ladder in the near future. Who knows? It could be ropes like the marines next time. I don't blame them.

Which youth? You forget that you all have the same jacked up mentality. It is not about the old and the new. It is about the way Nigerian's think in general. Classic example is Ben bruce. He is well travelled and somewhat enlightened. But because he has stayed in Nigeria too long, his mentality is now questionable. There is a mental problem in Nigeria that will take generations to weed out.

if you cnt deal with our naira, then Bleep off our airspace.



can we tender Naira to buy flight ticket in Uk/USA. will it be accepted.

yet you want us to accept your own currency in our country.

you see them talking about repatriatin fund to their country.

if you must repatriate fund back to you country, them go with Naira and exchange it in your country.

Naira must be strengthened.
outright ban on dollar/pound spending be impose.

paying for jet fuel in dollars here in nigeria should not be accepted, they should exchange their dollar to naira and pay the marketers in naira, this are tinz that will help strengthen our Naira.

we have accept all their rubbish over the years, but now it time we take our stand.


African should stand tall and face the devilish white people to their face, we should stop fueling white man economy at the detriment of our own.


Just like Zimbabwe adopt the spending of Chinese YEN as a ledger tender in their country just because of $40billion debt.

Yeah right.

Tell the banks to pay N2b into my local bank account. I will notify the States Department of the legitimacy of the transaction, get security clearance against money laundering and I will fly the dollars equivalent into Nigeria in duffle bags the same way GEJ flew $14m into South Africa.

There you have it.

We have been all these years patching Nigeria up, deceiving everyone. Now Nigeria needs to be rebuilt totally, that's the reason its a tad difficult.
A house that took about 20 years to destroy and bring to its knees is expected to be rebuilt to full splendour in 8 months? Like seriously?

God is with Nigeria and this country is on the path to recovery. I know that. May God help the president and his crew, in no time the nay-sayers shall be confounded and would forever hold their peace.
