Report from a pained ass.

You mean even the ones felt by the common people were not benefits?

1. No fuel scarcity lasting more than a week
2. People buying lands and building houses everywhere
3. Civil servants and businessmen buying cars
4. Foodstuffs prices very stable, for 4 years, no panic buying for Xmas, prices of rice was constant even in festive periods
5. Transport fares were not hike during festive period cos fuel was stable
6. High production of crude oil resulting in work for company workers. Dollars was stable
7. More accessible roads even Fashola acknowledge this and for first time many travel cheaply using train

Need I say more? This are what common people like me felt not the one Ngozi would stand in NTA and talk about maro and micro economy
