"You have your right to vote against us (APC) during 2019 election if you want but I remain in the party because we will re-tool this party, we will re-tool this government."
"A damage of over 60 years and 16 years of mis-governance by PDP cannot be turned around overnight. Let’s be patient, let’s have the understanding, let’s hang on to hope."
~ ASIWAJU BOLA TINUBU

Below is one of the response from Chukwuma Ibiwuru to this post by APC Publicity Secretary, Lagos State, Mr. Joe Igbokwe:

In 1999, PDP met nothing except a pariah nation. The Party met monumental corruption including the money that the Abacha family is still returning today. They met an economy without the likes of MTN, Airtel, Glo, Etislat, Dangote Cement, NIPP, Shoprite, privatized NEPA and many more.

There were no agencies like ICPC, EFCC, to fight corruption. No regulatory agencies like NERC, NCC, PPPRA etc,. No due process or procurement Act, no UBE Act and many other laws. No Communication satellites, and many other creations of the PDP. An eldorado Nigeria was not handed over to PDP. In fact, there were no card readers to conduct elections until the PDP brought them into our electoral system. Can APC do better?

I therefore charge APC to bring up at least a single innovation of this kind to bring about a better Nigeria.

There was record oil earning for PDP to impress but they loot everything.
ICPC & EFCC mentioned in the so called apt response were toothless bulldogs that were barely awake in PDP's 16 years. It is not about volume but impact bros . . .

@ Op worry not your brain to think those accursed ones can engage you in a convincing way majority of these lost ones are wired upstairs in one way - GEJ is the cause. I can't imagine any right thinking human being who claims to be an intellectual or set of homo sapiens that claim to be intellectuals to think Buhari and his loud mouthed set of cabinet members (Amaechi, Lie Mohammed, Fashola, Audu Ogbeh, Dalung, Mama Taraba, Ngige, Ogbonnaya Onu, Kyari, and other peppersoup drinkers and dog neat eaters) to bring a dynamic change to a an economic that was not badly damaged than what they have done now. Imagine dollar now N504. Dear Lord, help your children.

It easy for any pained soul to foam in the mouth about dollar rate of N504/$. Our system of defending the dollar rate with dollar reserve is not feasible if our dollar supply via oil sales isn't high. How much did GEJ govt earn asides oil sales?

........ask yourself how much Obj inherited from the military in 1999 (about $3.8 billion) how much was oil then (around $9 per barrel) yet dollar vs naira was stabilized and no recession of this magnitude you wanna know how? He went on a rebranding of Nigeria to the outside world that is, he opened Nigeria to the frontiers of business globally and gradually our oil, telecommunications, bureau de change, capital market, maritime, agriculture and other sectors started picking up. I ask you now, what has your Buhari done so far to fight this recession? You know what he did something your lots are fond of doing and still doing, blame Good luck Jonathan. Obasanjo had all the excuses in the world to blame Abdulsalam, he never did but did something reasonable, engaged the best brains at his disposal to turn the tide. Learn and be wise.

PDP met the most patient and understanding Nigerian then with no phone, laptop(with internet) and social media at his disposal. The PDP achieved all they did at their own pace. The question is; If you take this current APC government back to 1999 would we be where we are today? The answer arguably would be NO! Nigerians in 1999 were contented with the departure of the Military and Abacha specifically. Little wonder even educated Nigerians didn't know when all these institutions were built. OBJ travelled the world with nobody raising an eyebrow. Times have changed and the PDP disappointed hitherto Patient, Naive and unsophisticated Nigerian, is now Angry, Impatient and Technologically advanced interms of info tech. You don't mess with him anymore. The APC and Buhari administration is faced with that Nigerian right now. The MONSTER the FRANKIESTEIN PDP created.

What will blind hate or ignorance profit any liberal soul?
The price of dollar is simply a function of its demand and supply. FG has been the one supplying 85% of $forex. Commonsense should tell the vile amongs us that once the govt's major dollar source - oil sales - suffers a dip in volume or price, our dollar supply goes down and demands further pushes dollar price upward.
Those irrelevant stats you bandied up there won't be complete without you stating our recurrent expense as of 1999.

Your brand of economics must have been handed over to you by your forefathers and not what our learned Adam Smith, Keynes coined for this modern world. Common sense should inform you that high price of oil is always a major boost to our huge forex reserve. You keep harping on demand and supply as if you are talking to kindagarten kids. What is Nigeria producing that is internationally recognized? Please don't mention oil, I need a commodity or an innovation of course none. Need I tell you that Nigeria is a consuming economy that thrives more on monetary policies of its government and this is where your uncle Buhari lost it. The fact is, Muhammadu Buhari's rudderless monetary policy and not a drop in oil prices is responsible for Nigeria's current woes. Impossible to take a free market economy, turn it into a command economy because one lacks critical thinking capacity and expect different results - no way.
Incompetences, Cluelessness........wrong policies,all these destroyed our economy......no thanks to apc led government. I am tired of educating kids. Demand and supply mostly affects a producing economy more and not as you imagined for a consuming economy as Nigeria.

I know Americans are more understanding than Nigerians when it comes to patriotism especially when trillions of Dollars have been genuinely made privately by private citizens hence they would not let the great USA be put to shame like Nigerians are doing to their country because trillions of Dollars where made by public officials serving the government. Trump and Buhari both have a similar economic policy" use your comparative advantage" Buhari said "produce and buy Nigeria" Trump said " Buy America, Hire America" what was the response from Nigerians, we couldn't take the advantage of the initiative becouse those with the means got them illegally and would not invest through proxies. So we are stucked. Except we grow at this slow pace or we go back to importing everything and create a huge deficit balance of payment. Americans on the other most likely will respond to the policy by quickly investing in those areas of American needs that Trump will stop importation and fill the gap in record time to prevent the Nigerian experience. America will experience a slight inflation because of patriotism. Nigeria is suffering Hyper inflation due to unpatriotic citizens and unwilling local investors and neck deep importers who don't want to embrace change and go into local production. How do you blame a government for doing the right thing because her citizens are ether obdurate or too blind deaf and dumb to see an initiative? Buhari's government is giving no excuses. They are only dealing with a nation of wicked and unwilling citizens( the criminal elite poisoning the minds of ordinary Nigerian against government). Some of which have penetrated their ways into government. So the President and his government has this to deal with.

You tried but no thanks to your naive submission. America is a producing economy with Apple, GE, and other global brands you already know so Trump can say buy America and eat America. In California alone, a state in US (which happens to be the 6th largest economy in the world) can boast of over 77,000 mechanized and sophisticated farms that produce billions of dollars worth of agricultural products. So what is the basis for comparison between a consuming economy as ours compared to a producing economy as US total whatever we claim to be producing locally like sorghum, rice, beans, cassava, corn etc are they enough to take care of our domestic consumption alone? Not to talk of how they can be commercialized to fetch us heavy money. Think again bro.

A guy asked you what apart from oil does Nigeria produce that is internationally recognised and you still don't know you are dealing with a child? Na you I vex for not even him the little child. He has just knocked himself out. With all Agro product and solid minerals, the baby is saying oil is the only recognisable export product in Nigeria. Oh! What a monumental failure. Besides, what should a large market like Nigeria and America be doing thinking of exporting as a priority? We have the resources, we have the market withing Nigeria and our immediate neighbours who are almost like a part of us. We needn't look to far. The concentration should be more on producing for ourselves momentarily then focus can shift to export much later just for BOP purpose. China was done providing for 1.1billion people and then shifted focus to the rest of the world. That's a workable theory. We need to educate little kids. They are the leaders of tomorrow.

You know you are the kid here.., the question is legit; what apart from oil and related products does Nigeria export and earn forex from substantially? Answer that and stop skirting around facts. This country is by far the biggest colony of the most unproductive quantity of humans in the whole world.

what's your definition of wiseness; Should it jettison experience? You could claim to be "WISE" but how much can you throw away the experience of the Old? Especially when it is believed " Experience" is the best teacher. That aside, am only engaging you for the purpose of teaching you and broadening your horizon. Am simply just doing what is called " Social Engineering" It will hurt to leave you in ignorance. You are suffering from what I term " Crowd syndrome" majority is condemning the Buhari's administration so why will I see any sense in it. Oya! Me self go join condenm the government. Little boy, read more, learn more create your own stance based on your personal study and understanding. Change from time immemorial has always being accepted by Majority in theory but minority in workings. Majority of Nigerians who voted by INEC result voted for change, how many people have the patience to see change implemented; a small minority. That makes it a genuine change. Minority will support its working, majority will enjoy its outcome. Change has never come without pains but the knowledge of the joy that comes after the pain heals. Bad people don't like change becouse it gives opportunity for all to prosper. Enjoy guys! Am done. I hope knowledge was passed.

APC have used this same line to decieve and blind you lots that u fail to realise the amount of damage they have done to this country in less than 2 years in office, its so unfortunate that people can't think anymore... I pity your condition

If buhari wants to turn Nigeria into a production-oriented country, he should just go and learn from the Chinese.. He shouldn't be there trying to prove he has got a clue..., he hasn't and he shouldn't be desperate to reinvent the wheel.. Just copy "word for word" what the Chinese did and this country will be flying high in 20 years.. To start with, have a well planned economy! Forget all those nasty talks about how wrong a planned economy is. The Chinese economy is the fastest growing economy today and that started since the Politburo started mapping out plans on where to channel more skilled labor, more resources, more infrastructural development and more aid in their economy. You have to plan, you have to manage the plans by objectives/time, you have to inform the citizens of the opportunities being created in these areas of the economy, you have to provide skills acquisition centers for them to imbibe the skills to function optimally in these areas, you have to create solid banks to lend at cheap rates to SMEs in these areas and you have to look out for diplomatic openings to help export these finished goods to foreign lands where they are mostly needed... That is the job of a government and that's why i think those who keep following that liberal bullshyt about government having no business in business are just living in a foools paradise..

why did okonjo Iweala tell us in 2014 at $70/barrel to prepare for recession if PDP economic policies have worked, that is if they even believe in any policy apart from stealing not being corruption? What economic legacy did pdp leave that Pmb could build on ? How much did the nation earn under PDP for 16 years? How much has Buhari earned. While the pmb administration sincerely has some policy defects ,which hopefully are being addressed, the rogue and profligate PDP and its hirelings who plunged us into this mess are least qualified to teach us any economy sense. What economy diversification structure did PDP leave for Buhari? oya let us take it one by one from the petroleum industry,power, employment, agriculture, judiciary, manufacturing, youth development, security and etc

PDP did quite much to change the fortunes of Nigeria. APC did just a little to reverse the change of Nigeria.
