Good then

The African market is the biggest opportunity waiting.

China and the others can't be as Influential as Nigeria will be on other African Nations.

If only our Leaders can see the great opportunity that lies in selling our culture across the African Nations.

Chill! Do we even value our own culture? I think it's a NO.

Have they paid back the billions of loans they have taken

If they can pay back why are they borrowing and from where?

Ameachi a terrible lying machine

Amechi means who knows tomorrow . All Amechi needs to know is that tomorrow is very much pregnant.

I hope so

OK

Loan again?

Earthquake2:


Have they paid back the billions of loans they have taken

If they can pay back why are they borrowing and from where?

1.Loans are paid back instalmentally.

2.We borrow because we need oil to be at 139.dollars per barrel to run a debt free budget without borrowing. Oil has been below 80.usd since 2014.

The children of this country may wake up one day to the reality that their country has been sold to pay for mammoth debt incurred by their past leaders. Many people are not aware of a new fraud in town. The so-called performing governors and presidents use loans to build structures while the allocations to their states are secreted in overseas bank vaults, overhead tanks and soakaway pits.

Trashy talk from a looter; a common thief.

Aw

Earthquake2:


Look at your useless permutations, you don't know they will loot the borrowed ones and go to China for more

Good morning, professor.
