It's possible u don't need aid now. But before now u heavily depended on it guy

mikolo80:
That's what gullible means


Very simple
Sell new naira for every 360 old ones


Like which one
Agreed they are not willing to fix things but if they were they're all possible

due to 0 years of experience they want service before payment
Cos we have been paying new increased prices for fuel but scarcity every Year
School fees yet strike everyear
We don't trust the politicians

mikolo80:
what I heard on your news channels although with the former leaders
TBH can't speak for addo

SSBN:
My people this is no joking matter. If we do not kick France out of West Africa Nigeria will be the next Libya within a decade i kid ye not. What does Nigeria and Libya have in common?........thats right, largest oil reserve. Opposition to AFRICOM and other Foreign military bases, and lets not forget proud proponents for regional integration. It saddens me that Nigeria, the most educated minority group in the United States- eclipsing Asians, consistently produce leaders that struggle with articulation.


The last articulate President we've had in Nigeria is Gowon. Shagari talks like he has hot yam in his mouth. IBB spends nearly 30 minutes giving a 4 sentence speech yet still doesnt make sense. Even MKO (no pun intended ) was a chronic stammerer. Atiku Abubakar, OBJ, Yaradua, Good luck Jonathan, Buhari. Oh boy. Nigeria cannot be an effective hegemon if our leaders cannot articulate clearly. Its sad.

SupremeBeast:
which opposition party in the world ever commends the ruling government for doing a good job?


you should listen to what the average Ghanaian is rather saying about the government, are they regretting ever voting for Nana addo ? the answer is no.

but in buhari's case many have regretted.

anyways I'm still waiting for you to list buhari's achievement in almost three years of his governance.

SupremeBeast:
please please please, don't put words in my mouth. being gullible means being easily convinced or deceived, it doesn't mean someone is foolish so go check the dictionary.

secondly redenomination is not simple like you see, it also involves a Lot of money. is your country ready to spend that money?

thirdly buhari talked about increasing power production and ensuring that every Nigerian has electricity, is this what is happening?

fourthly, with the current conditions in Nigeria no government will come and provide electricity before increasing tarriffs. it won't be done.

mikolo80:
not opposition parties o
ordinary Ghanaians complain about pay, flooding, football management, same words we ordinary citizens use in Nigeria

I don't even know party names
I'm talking of youth

only a dunce would expect buhari to fix economy
we justwanted PDP out
still do
yes we wish he would fix refineries like he did as a minister and industrialised our nation

but I'll take just removing PDP

mikolo80:
I'm not putting anything in your mouth
please check a thesaurus
they mean the same thing
only fools are easily deceived
you have to watch what you Say
being called gullible is derogatory

our country that spends 20 naira to print 5 naira note
our useless politicians can spend anything

don't shift goal post
you asked if the promises were possible not if they were delivering on said promises

govt can(at least at the beginning) , it is private companies that won't

once ppl see sincerity they will pay or they can stay in darkness
we waste too much power anyway

SupremeBeast:
s. a also waste electricity yet they still have it, Ghana waste electricity yet we still have it. the blame goes to the government. if it allows most states to generate their own power, they will be OK.

SupremeBeast:
Buhari has failed just admit it. Jonathan was corrupt yet the project that took place under his regime were enormous. how many projects has buhari done so far that were not started by Jonathan?

Yea u ar right about how world trade agreements grossly disfavour Africa.
But that is nature. Every human is first of all selfish and can only relent when he meets an equal or superior power. So when the super powers make policies, it's normal to favour themselves and take advantage of laser powers like Africa who can't compete. After all most inventions n patents are coming from the western world. So why will they not favour themselves more?
So right from conception life is a survival of the fittest. So no one is gonna protect ur ass out there, u got to go fight for ya portion.
So i do still believe that Africa has always been her chief enemy. Because There's so much we can do that we aren't doing. Our leaders are the worst globally. Look at the case of Mugabe, see how much the nation has suffered economically as a result of one man. With so high literacy rate yet unemployment is at 90% and inflation is above 200m%. It's normal that since he expelled white minority farmers from lands. That western nations will come against him n d his nation. But wisdom demands that he should have handed over power to a trusted comrade long ago, that will come and pursue aggressive economic reforms. Likely the fury from western nations against the new face will b much less. And overtime the nation will have moved on from the land dispute stigma. But instead he was busy enriching himself wt d nations gold, platinum n diamond while d whole nation suffered greatly. So who did he fight for the land for, himself
A 93yr old coga to collect 10m dollar settlement after impoverishing his nation all these yrs. Haba common guys!!!

So what of the asian Tigers n the Arab nations,were they favoured originally in trade agreements? So how come they have made far much progress than oil rich African nations
Pls kindly tell me the advantage that Qatar, UAE has over Nigeria??
Pls don't talk about d population, cultural/religious diff, because that's an advantage, except u ar a blind leader like we do around Africa.
I have an in-law who's a senior manager in cheveron, he says that even the oil meters that is supposed to b monitored by NNPC to confirm the amount of crude lifted by joint venture partners, have not been working for yrs n no one cares. These are same partners lifting crude for decades in nig but never built a rifinery here. All NNPC is interested in is to package million dollars contracts to a sick president in London to sign.
Y hasn't Nigerian leaders reinvested it's proceeds from oil like Arabs nations are doing
Or is that also a problem of western powers on Nigeria??
How can a leader grieve while looking for power, that Nig leaders are going for medical tourism abroad while our health system is in tatters here. That if voted he'll stop that starting from himself. Only to get to power and budget N2.1b to a common clinic in his villa (more that budget of all tartiary hospitals in nig) and runs to London to treat ear infection. When the sickness became serious and every one was praying for him here (where the hospitals don't work) he ran to London where they don't pray (but the health system works) for treatment. Only for his wife n daughter to affirm that the clinic in the villa has no string n pcm yet nothing is done about that. After all he can afford to take a chunk of that hospital budget to go treat himself abroad. Tell me my friend is that also a problem of the west on Africa
Yet some people are still clamouring for him to contest in 2019, all because he speaks same language wt them n follows same religion as them.
A president that proscribed a group asking for their right to self determination a terrorist group. Sent soldiers to level them and innocent civilians. Yet the AK 47 carrying headsman killing with abandon since he came to power are saints in his eyes. Western world could not side with nig in that proscription u know. We were a joke to them if u didn't notice. Because they know about these headsman all these yrs and that there has not been any clear convicted bokoharram terrorist in any nig courts since this govt came in. Yet many were clapping for Mr President even here in NL.
Is that also a problem of d west on nig

I'm yet to talk about a Gov building statues of stranger presidents (including Nana's) wt millions of naira in his state yet can't pay salaries n pension of senior citizens. Awards all road projects to his construction company and appointments his daughter a commissioner for happiness.

How can we succeed as a nation with this quality of leadership Tell me!

I repeat until we look hard inwards choose capable leaders without sentiments, make both internal n external policies that will strengthen us, we'll not progress as a nation. All these noise (including the one by Nana) will not make any difference.

mikolo80:
you're not listening
we voted buhari to do 3 things
remove Jonathan and PDP
Boko Haram
fix econom

he has done 2 out of 3
he is not a failure

you can't get everything you want from a politician
even South Korea and Singapore complain about their leaders that developed them out of poverty

SupremeBeast:
he has done one and half out of 3.

Boko Haram isn't really dead so that's a half.

he has also failed with the economy that's a zero.

as for the corruption war too, it's one sided and he has failed to deal with the corrupt people of his govt

mikolo80:
agreed
although to be fair terrorists are hard to fight
but at least they not doing anyhow anyhow like under Jonathan

didn't expect him to (but same noni with Jonathan)
although it would've been a nice bonus if he fixed power

one sided is better than no sided

SupremeBeast:
with that said infrastructure wise what has buhari done?

mikolo80:
what did Jonathan do
or obj or any of our leaders.
even fashola that was building 2 billion per kilometre is a failure
but I reiterate
I will choose them over PDP so that PDP will learn to share the money so it won't matter who is in power they have to share the money (infrastructure and social services) if they want votes

SupremeBeast:
well, apc will be gone in 2019 so enjoy your few time you have left in office.

mikolo80:
wetin concine me
no be all of us go suffer am together once PDP enter again
it's game over

SupremeBeast:
that's not true, pdp will make Nigeria better than it is.
