Na him know

Damage control. Lol...

.

He needs to clarify himself cuz judging of understanding of economy will com up 2023

Bloody deny-er

This man sef.

All of a sudden tinubu is everywhere speaking.

Coronavirus fears mean shops are accepting card payments only. Is this the end of cash?

Deadratgrill:
Sharap we dont want to hear, it’s either you remove the walking dead president u imposed on us and also give us our stolen 500billion dollars or forget it

500billion gini, how much is Jeff bezos worth

ijustdey:

What I do want is for the government to meet the coming economic challenges with a swift, bold and effective spending plan. Those who, until now, would spend their time beating up on straw men should give us their own plans. If, that is, they even have any.”
https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/covid-19-my-position-on-economy-misreported-tinubu.html

Tinubu is indirectly part of the government, he created APC (ACN 5 states, CPC 1 state), he should be telling them what to do and not us.

Bloggers go scatter this country one day

Jagaban never mind the relevant few who are constantly on the lookout for loop holes in their neighbour perfection. In this era of pandemic some people can still playing crude politics. To tell us their solution is like trying to push Olumo rock but always the quickest to any solution profered.

Get some sense

hisexcellency34:
Why did it take him so long will deny it

waiting for his advisers.

now those who defended him that printing more money is the solution need to apologise

This are the kind of nitwit PDP produced to debate on NL. Who does not know that anyone arguing with this wretch being is wasting his or her time? You claim someone made a claim he came out to refute the lie yet this hopeless reject will rather hold on to what as been disclaimed ?!

Babatunde40:
Nobody forced you to talk in the first place. You were pushed by your selfish interest. As far as I am concerned, you wanted more Naira notes to be printed. Then you will use bullion van to pack as usual. Go and sit down with your audio N200m donation

Okay

Is One-World Currency Only a Click Away?



For many people today, online shopping is the way to go. You don’t have to fight traffic on the roads or wait in long lines. There are no crowded aisles, and the store never closes. You can turn on your computer, sit down, relax, and shop at your leisure.

You can buy just about anything you want online these days, including books, clothing, electronics—even groceries. That’s right, you can do your grocery shopping online, and the supermarket will deliver your items directly to your doorstep within 24 hours.

Technology is changing the way we do almost everything. It’s even daring to change the currency we use to do it with.

The Bible implies that in the end-times, the world will use a universal currency. The apostle John wrote that during the future seven-year Tribulation, the Antichrist “causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name:…666” (Rev. 13:16–18).

John must have asked himself, How will the Antichrist exert international control and manipulate who buys and sells in a massive economy? But what seemed incomprehensible in John’s time has become a reality today. Technological developments have made our world much smaller and more connected with the simple click of a computer key.

The “mark” in Revelation 13:16–17 can be interpreted as a stamp, branding, implanted microchip, or man-made engraving of some sort. Receiving the mark of the Beast will be mandatory for everyone during the Tribulation. According to Revelation, the mark has two main functions:

Identification. It identifies the people who show loyalty to the mission and work of the Antichrist. Those with the mark accept his aim to unify the nations under his administration and force everyone to worship him in all of his hubris. Verse 16 places no social or cultural boundaries on who can receive the mark. It is for “small and great, rich and poor, free and slave” everywhere; no one is to be exempt from the Antichrist’s plan.

The mark also conveys a message of complete and utter divorce from God. Revelation says those who receive the mark are in rebellion against the Lord and destined to face His wrath (14:9–10; 19:20).

In contrast, those who refuse the mark are in danger of being martyred; but they stand in allegiance with God, and their reward is great: eternal life (20:4).

Control. The mark of the Beast also functions as a way for the Antichrist to control the populace. Unless one receives the mark, he or she is unable to buy or sell anything in the global market, meaning many probably will accept the mark simply to survive. Managing what people buy and sell on such an immense scale would require a one-world currency to monitor all transactions.

Social and financial control of this magnitude in first-century Rome would have been inconceivable. Yet with today’s social and financial developments in technology, the idea of worldwide financial control is uncomfortably plausible.

Not long after the U.S. recession spread globally in 2008, the UN Conference on Trade and Development proposed a worldwide currency managed by a “Global Reserve Bank” to help move away from dollar domination in order to prevent a single currency from negatively affecting global economics. The 218-page report states an internationally controlled currency would help stabilize every member country.1 The idea of a global currency is not only on the minds of UN bureaucrats, but it is also on the minds of those who have come to distrust the banking system altogether.

Enter Bitcoin, a peer-to-peer, digital currency created by the alias developer Satoshi Nakamoto. The highly controversial currency transcends all countries, currencies, and markets. It lacks regulation and is in no need of a bank acting as the middleman.2

When you want to purchase a product with Bitcoin, you make a time-stamped, digitally cryptic transaction with the person or company with whom you are doing business. You and your computer become the bank. And since there is no physical bank, Bitcoins are saved in a digital wallet that is either on your computer or in cloud storage—meaning it resides in a gigantic data center somewhere in the great unknown.

Anyone can earn, save, and invest Bitcoins; all you need is a computer, tablet, or smartphone to connect you to the Internet. Because Bitcoin is a cashless currency, you acquire Bitcoins through an exchange of products, services, or other currencies. That means if you sell a product or provide labor, you have the option to be paid in Bitcoins. You may also purchase Bitcoins, backed by your country’s currency, through a Bitcoin processing company like BitPay.

This currency proudly offers anonymous transactions. However, the ability to control such a digital currency for overseeing purchases would be simple to establish.

You’re probably thinking this currency is a bizarre, avant-garde, underground invention that doesn’t have two feet to stand on. Not so. You may be surprised to learn that Bitcoin is much more developed than many people realize.

For starters, major corporations love the less than 1 percent service fee levied for transactions, compared to the 2 percent or 3 percent service fees credit-card companies charge. Also, many companies see the world moving in the direction of a geo-cashless society and want to be ahead of the curve on currency transition.

Companies like online megastore Overstock.com recently started accepting payments in the form of Bitcoins. The Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors of the National Basketball Association will gladly take your digital currency, and Tesla Motors—the newest American car company—will happily sell its $100,000 electric cars in exchange for your Bitcoins.

BitPay, a Bitcoin processing company based in Atlanta, Georgia, boasts more than 15,000 merchants across 200 countries. And to think that as recently as September 2012, BitPay had a mere 1,000 merchants. BitPay also claims to have processed an astonishing $100 million in peer-to-peer Bitcoin transactions.

Forbes Magazine, one of the world’s leading publishers of business news, touts, “Bitcoin began 2013 at $13 a coin, only to ring in 2014 around $800 with worldwide fascination driving the 60-times gain.”3 Bitcoin’s extraordinary rate of growth probably means it isn’t vanishing anytime soon.

John Dyer, author of From the Garden to the City: The Redeeming and Corrupting Power of Technology, says, “When technology has distracted us to the point that we no longer examine it, it gains the greatest opportunity to enslave us.”4 We live in a culture that dives head first into technology without ever evaluating the long-term consequences.

And though Bitcoin may or may not be reliable or the future of one-world legal tender, it reveals there is an infrastructure, desire, and market for a global, digital, cashless currency. The question is, “Who will control it?”

Liar. You were not misreported. You used American government's increase in dollars circulation to buttress your point.

Erediauwa:
I knew he didn't say it, it's just some useless journalist writing rubbish emanating from their brains.


Even though I don't support His party and whatever they stand for or represent, I know Jagaban wouldn't want to jeopardize his 2023 ambition with that statement and like I rightly predicted, he came out to clear the air.


Nice one Jagaban.

he wanted to print more money.

his advisers told him printing more money will destroy the economy..... primary school pupils know that...... he is just trying to save face.

tinubu will not want to go into 2023 with a reputation that he failed economics in school.


if he was misquoted, why did he compare it to America printing more cash?

Please how do i delete a topic i created on nairaland?

Not every Nigerian is a forged certificate President Buhari like your Barawo bubu and his Thiefnuibu.
If he has had a rethink of his senseless talk, he should simply own up and beg for pardon instead of twisting himself like a snake

ijustdey:
All Progressives Congress leader, Bola Tinubu , has asked the Federal Government to print more naira notes in order to save the economy from collapse even as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to bite harder.

Tinubu said this in a statement he wrote in commemoration of his 68 birthday .

The former governor of Lagos State said the United States Federal Reserve had printed more dollars in order to boost the economy.
He said Nigeria could also do the same .

Tinubu added, “ Already , the price of oil has fallen to less than 30 dollars a barrel . This will bring a dollar shortfall . This does not, however , necessitate a corresponding shortfall in public sector naira expenditures .

“ The US controls dollar issuance . We control naira issuance as is our sovereign right . Just as America has used its sovereign right to issue its currency to stave economic disaster, so too may Nigeria issue naira for the same purpose .”

This are the kind of nitwit PDP produced to. Come debate on NL.

Haha. I am not PDP. In 2015 I was a card carrying member of APC. I was a member of ACN that merged with CPC to form APC. I want a better Nigeria. This has nothing to do with politics. All the lies you come online to say in defense of this government, can you look your children in the eye and say them with pride. Think my friend. Life is beyond PDP

LegendHero:
One thing you can’t take from Tinubu is his intelligence.

Well someone that worked for American companies like Arthur Andersen, Deloitte, Haskins, & Sells, and GTE Services Corporation will definitely be intelligent to an extent.

To cap it, he rose to the position of an executive at Mobil Oil Nigeria.

you guys were educating me yesterday on the important of printing more money

Nigerians always having solution to every issues. Let them be appointed and u think they are under a spell. Good points he listed but none will be done

IamhonouredG:
Baba Tinubu wants the CBN to print more money make another 10 bullion Vans dey deposit ahm for him house.

Spare a thought for those who spent the last few days defending money printing because they thought Tinubu was in support of it.
