I habor no hate in my heart and I'd love nothing more than to see my country great again.
But if stating things as they presently are is what you call hatred for my country, then so be it smiley
bros, ""great again"" means there was a time nigeria was great which is false. one of the problems of nigeria is people always supporting evil because it favours them and such people are all over every thread on nairaland and they are just quoting you and you are quoting them. fortunately nigeria is practically a train on high speed without brake and all the professional patriots on nairaland and high places in nigeria cannot stop the crash,

They know what is going on in Aso rock,
Nigeria won’t taste that money unless,
1. The real president “Abba Kyari” is out of the picture or
2. When Apc finally vacates the office in 2023

It is worrying how political positioning is addling some peoples reasoning ability. It is as if some people are no longer capable of arriving at the truth of a matter by considering its logic. For instance, given that any Nation for which Covid is rife among the population, constitutes longer-term danger to the world as a re-infecting point, why would any organisation dispensing funds to fight the disease withhold funds from that nation?

Reasoning like the above should lead an individual to conclude that since it is not in the world’s interest that any nation becomes a Covid reservoir waiting to re-infect the world, that it is unlikely World Bank has excluded Nigeria funds for any other reason save that it adjudged, rightly or wrongly, that Nigeria does not require it as much as others. Or the entire news is false.

People who always complain about Nigeria’s huge debt profile are now complaining that World bank did not give us Covid-19 loan.

Vanguard that reported the news didn’t even bother to speak to anybody from the ministry of finance or debt management office if the country applied for any Covid-19 support facility from the world. They just saw the report that Congo and Eritrea will benefit at the first instance and they concluded that Nigeria was excluded. In the same vain, I can also conclude that world bank excluded South Africa, Egypt, Ghana, Algeria, Angola etc.

It is also funny how they portrayed the world bank loan as some sort of gift to help the countries. The money is a loan and not a gift.
It is the latest madness in Nigeria today, hating the government is the latest fashion. If they sneeze, in Rwanda, Nigerians will tell you that Nigeria is doomed because the sneeze better in Rwanda and if hey shit in Ghana, Nigerians will tell you that their shit smells better than Nigerian shit.

This is the craziness and herd mentality many Nigerians are into these days. It's really silly.

Just imagine, poor countries collected IMF loan and all of a sudden they are better than Nigeria.

I guess collecting loans is the new gold standard and sign of good governance.

A very good sigh of relief to know that we still have sensible, intelligent and right-thinking Nigerians.

Kudos.

This is a welcome development.


Let them give the funds to better nations that will religiously use the money for the proper cause.
