₦airaland Forum

Nigerians on nairaland, we all know that despite all the bashing,words of hate,religious e-war on this forum,we all have one thing in common...how we wish that this country could be a good and comfortable place for all of us.
let's be honest with our self,at least for once. just imaging, if PDP were still in position today,what would you think that this country would look like,and that of the APC government now?.
as for me, I see all Nigerian leaders as one but still, I think this country would have no longer be in existence,due to the ways the past administration was handling it back then,eg borrowing money to fund the government.
you can share your reasons why you think the later is better or vice vasa.

If he was still president, a lot of people would have massively turned beggars, considering the fall in oil prices and impunity in looting spree.
Today, Director's in ministries, departments and agencies are very much afraid to spend their allocations even for authorized and genuine purposes. That's what I call sanity.

Nigerians would call him different NAMES, BLAME him for everything even their burnt soup, and Nigerians would so proudly say... Buhari would have done BETTER, good thing we know what's happening now.

Which fall in oil price? How gullible can zombies be!
GEJ handed over when price per barrel of crude was $38 but it sells for around $50 today. (You have internet access to verify)

The government recently introduced a N50 postage duty on deposits made into current accounts. You have an idea how much that could fetch daily?

Besides these, this wicked anti-people government also transferred the burden of subsidy payment to the masses through the increase of PMS price from N87 to N145. So, the government is making more money than ever before.

What about the hundreds of billions of naira of "looted funds" they also claim to have recovered?

Buhari who inherited a reserve of about $30billion is simply incompetent, stop giving lame excuses.

Was there anytime during Jonathan's 5years at the helm when things were half as bad as this?
Keep deceiving yourself because of sentiment while you starve in silence.

Your problem (just like most of your zombie-cohorts) is sheer ignorance. Your don't know zilch about public finance yet you delve blindly into economy-related discourse at the slightest opportunity

"...borrowing money to fund the government".

Even the almighty USA borrows to fund some of its programs how much more a 3rd world country like Nigeria?

Tell me ONE single year since independence that Nigeria did not borrow money to fund some of its activities and why is your "saintly" Buhari also running his padded budget through about 40% borrowing?

How do countries (especially the developing ones) finance critical infrastructure without borrowing, and why do you think most countries run deficit budgets?

The greatest impediment to Buhari's success as president I always say is the legion of sycophantic zombies who rather than draw his attention to his obvious flaws will always cheer him on just to justify their electoral choice.

It's disheartening how everything has to be Buhari vs Jonathan, APC vs PDP and that's why we all are in this mess.

Buhari inherited a reserve of about $30billion but depleted it to below $18billion within a year, naira exchanging at N220 to $1 but N355/$1 today due to gross economic mismanagement, PMS at N87 but N145 today, inflation which had been single digit for years now double digits under him.

He inherited price per barrel of crude at $38 but same sells for about $50 today. He introduced a postage duty of N50 on all deposits made into current accounts and also increased PMS price from N87 to N145...meaning the government is making more money than ever before. Yet things are deteriorating by the day.

...and when we complain of the biting hardship they term us "wailers" and sing the expired song Lai Mohammed put in their mouths-

"...PDP destroyed the country for 16years..."

Were we not in paradise in those PDP's 16years compared with the hell we're going through under this direction-lacking Buhari government?

The greatest impedement to Buhari's
