Re: Henry Boyo Is Dead by ambu2:
There were some economic theories, which this man kept proposing that it would help Nigeria economy get better. He talked and talked but nobody in government seems to be listening. Now he is dead without seeing the economy back on its feet. Sad.

Gentleman, eloquent, persuasive and passionate but ...

Rest in Peace Baba.

Henry Boyo, the only confident and non-hypocritical man who could call a spade a spade.

He once boldly called Okonjo Iweala a failure! And has also damaged the Nigerian economy

Well, by all facts and the price of oil then as a measure, the economy was indeed a disaster.

The only reason why we appreciate her is because the economy of now isn't fairing better than hers, but it doesn't mean it was all good


RIP sir

Journey well Mr. Henry Boyo. cool
Re: Henry Boyo Is Dead by chloride6: 4:54pm On Nov 20, 2019
He is gone but his economic analysis lives on.

Boyo was not your conventional economist..

He was something like a mix of Paul Krugman and Keynes mixed and shaken up...to put it a simple way....not afraid to challenge the status quo with a dash of madness

grin grin grin

He was a steady critic of the CBN Fx policies from time immemorial

Rest well and whenever you are, continue to dare to be different

The man critic government polices and the CBN polices on the economy, the currency and its effects to the common man.



Loved the way he made his points simple to understand by a non economist



RIP sir,

Indeed I won't be exaggerating if I describe these news as shocking.

I am a big fan and a regular reader of his articles on the economy. Coincidentally he died on the day when his articles are usually published by Punch newspapers. A profound intellectual is dead and is quite a huge loss.

If you want to understand the nature of Nigeria economy, then you should read his articles.

I wish him an eternal rest.

You had to bring rubbish politics into this.
