Just like saying the US provides $92.7million to increase the wealth of 2% Nigerians. Because the money is going to be enjoyed by not more than 2% Nigerians(Politicians)
You're right

Foreign aid we all know is not generousity but way of pinning down the imperial interests and deepening neo colonialism in Nigeria. Only few can discern what I'm saying

Spurious! it stated that remittance will commence from 2015 to 2020, not that it will be “released between 2015 and 2020”

https://www.nairaland.com/2643936/us-give-buhari-2.3bn-fight

What can you deduce from that phrase? Yes, it will be released between 2015 and 2020, but it doesn't confute the fact that the remittance was to commence from 2015! So I will adjure you to stop feigning ignorance and make logical depictions.
Ur ignorance is epic.

Where is the $2.3bn that was initially disbursed to Buhari to help eradicate poverty? This govt have secured abundant grants, and we hear of govt injecting billions and trillions into the economy without any visible impacts, this goes to concretize the notion that clandestine and copious defalcations of funds are going on in this govt.

I have said it, and I will like to iterate, the problem is not “lack of funds” but lack of dexterous, disciplined and qualified individuals in the govt.
So sorry bro, but am not understanding your big big English.

This is even a chicken change to the money the US immigration offices in Nigeria extorts from Nigerians daily, and at the end of the day, they won't grant them Visa. And besides, you give Nigeria government money to eradicate poverty? How absurd? It will be fu¢king looted mehn, even our Judges Stinks.

You don't eradicate poverty, you make the country better by;

(1) Fund education and research, and make available student loans. Continual examination of Teachers and lecturers regularly to conform with world standard.

(2) Make jobs available

(3) Provide infrastructures: Good roads, constant electricity, regular distribution of water e.t.c

(4) Reduce the salary and allowances of government officials from federal to state.

(5) Educate police and pay their salaries on time.

(6) Make sure multi-National company pays tax, so that money can be available to government, and they can loot out of that if they want.

You are holding Buhari responsible for utilization of fund that hasn't been fully released. I hail oh.
it is being released in tranches mr. Man. Did u read that the aqreement is until 2020? Or do u think they will put in a bank until it's complete? Smh. Even then, is buhari not going to be responsible for the utilization? Nawa u o

Did you understand what you read at all? $93m is less than N40b. Are you saying what the admin has done can't justify that amount. The FG's monthly wage bill alone is four times that amount.

ALARMING EMERGENCY !
PLEAESE, ALL THE MODS AND MY GOOD PEOPLE ON AWESOME NAIRALAND,TAKE TIME TO READ,CONFIRM AND SPREAD. LET OUR ATTENTION BE DRAWN TO THE THIS ROT AND EXTORTION GOING ON IN LAGOS STATE HEALTH SECTOR,GENERAL HOSPITALS ( IGANDO, AGEGE GENERAL HOSPITALS TO BE EXACT). I AM SURE OUR WONDERFUL GOVERNOR IS NOT AWARE OF THIS HYDRA- HEADED MONSTERS REPRESENTED BY NURSES AND DOCTORS IN GENERAL HOSPITALS IN LAGOS.
OUR PREGNANT MOTHERS’ LIVES ARE IN DANGER O ! I HEARD A HEART-BREAKING STORY FROM A PREGNANT WOMAN WHO ATTENDED ANTE-NATAL CARE YESTERDAY IN ONE OF THOSE HEALTH CENTRES IN LAGOS. DELIVERY PACK THAT IS PROVIDED FREELY FOR THEM BY THE GOVERNMENT IS NOW BEING SOLD TO THEM IN GENERAL HOSPITALS AT N8,500. COCONUT OIL AND PAD AT N2000 WHICH IS COLLECTED FROM THEM ON THE DAY OF THEIR H.I.V TEST. IT MUST BE PAID BEFORE THEY EVEN LOOK AT YOU OR ATTEND TO YOU. DELIVERY CHARGE WHICH WAS N32,000 HAS NOW BEEN INCREASED TO N45,000 IN THE SPACE OF 14 DAYS (2 WEEKS) ,WHICH THEY NEVER SAW COMING. IT BECAME A HUGE RUDE SHOCK TO THEM YESTERDAY. THESE FEES MUST BE PAID BEFORE DELIVERY !!!! IN THE CASE OF CS, IT WAS N45,000 TO N90,000!!!!!! ALL WITHIN 2 WEEKS !!!!! MANY OF THEM HAD TO LEAVE IN TEARS NEVER TO RETURN AS THEY DON’T HAVE HOPE OF RAISING THAT MONEY FROM ANYWHERE;LEAVING BEHING BLOOD DONATION WHICH THEY ALL MADE BEFORE ANTE-NATAL. THIS BLLOOD DONATION HAD TO BE MADE BY THEIR HUSBANDS !!!!!! MY PEOPLE, WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE ? THIS COUNTRY IS HARD. IN A DAY, NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT ASK ME FOR ALMS ON MY WAY TO AND FROM WORK INCREASES. THE OTHER DAY, MY YOUNGER BROTHER WHO CAME VISITING FROM THE AIRPORT TO MY HOUSE WAS ACCOSTED BY FOUR PERSONS ASKING FOR ALMS. THE ONE THAT GOT HIM CLOSE TO TEARS WAS A CASE OF A MAN WHO ASKED HIM FOR DIAPERS FOR HIS CHILD. HE SAID THAT HE DOESN’T NEED ANY CASH BUT PAMPERS AS IT IS CALLED. WE UNDERSTAND THAT EVEN THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT FINDING IT EASY BUT THEY SHOULD TAKE IT EASY IF THEY ARE THE ONES BEHIND THIS UNTOLD HARDSHIP AND EXTORTION ON PREGNANT MOTHERS IN LAGOS. PLEASE, MY MERCIFUL GOV. AMBODE, LOOK INTO THIS. LETS SPREAD THIS UNTIL THIS WOMEN’S HOPE AND CHANCES OF SAFE DELIVERY IS RESTORED.
THANK YOU, NAIRALAND FAMILY.

Re: U.S. Provides $92.7m To Reduce Poverty In Nigeria by Nobody: 11:16am On Oct 12, 2016
All of u dat is blaming US government for helping,why nau...did they use rope to come and drag our greedy past and current politicians to save money in their country.#1 was $1 even then no oil,only agriculture and when oil was discovered they stupidly abandon agriculture then some greedy people started selling crude oil illegally realising huge gain and making sure they spoil our refineries stop working and brings it back into the country after refined double gain....They still make sure Nepa lights are unstable so they can also bring in generators forcing us to depend on the oil by force....56 yrs of these going on,some people expect it to end overnight

Look at your mouth like "OUR MONEY". Who dash monkey banana. It is Niger delta money joo. That chicken change you assumed they are sending you, have you seen any work your govt have done with it. By the way why did you stole your people's money and send it to foreign nations. If i were those nations, i will never smell a kobo of it. After all, if they sent the money, it will still go to corrupt few in govt or used to increase the presidents and legistrators allowances. Let America continue to keep the cash until we have matured govt that would utilize it well. This govt is running a high dimension secretive corruption war. Just check out the news coming from sahara report.
Re: U.S. Provides $92.7m To Reduce Poverty In Nigeria by Nobody: 12:18pm On Oct 12, 2016
If our stolen money is in their banks, and they have not repatriated it back to us, it means they have stolen our money. Let us not mince words about this.

How are they looting us?
