Nigeria really need to seat up we are lacking behind in all sectors no countries have confidence in us as a nation again because of corruptions and greed 1 kenyan shilling is equal to 200naira
currency value does not always determine the Country's Economy

Did you say progress? Collusion with colonial France in an attempt to sabotage & distablize African regional economy & keep us in shackles at the mercy of white colonial masters is progress to you? Nigeria nor any Ecowas nation will be use as dumping ground by the franc colonial masters. Never again. We are Africa. About time we make our own rules. We are done receiving handouts from the Alien invaders from across the Atlantic. Francophones are traitors & a disgrace to Africa sovereignty.
I agree with you on the points you made about the francophones potentially setting themselves up for another colonial rule, but what other options are available to them since Africa cant get her acts right and United, especially in the area of having a common currency? Gaddafi fought for that to happen, so did several other african leaders. But all we hear about is just discussions upon discussions, no progress at all.

France stepped in to motivate the fracophone countries to decide and they did, obviously they are aware of the impacts of their sacrifice. Euro wasnt created for no reason, and the impacts of reliance on dollars greatly changed many economies in Europe.

Africa refused to change, and still have divided economies and stunted growth.
Read through http://www.usfunds.com/interactive/the-true-size-of-africa/ yet no progress.
So, I'm of the view that african countries that believe being watched over will bring them some dynamics are on the right track. Will Nigeria be the way it is today if the British still watched over it? There is no unity within Nigeria alone, let alone with her fellow african nations.

If yoruba, ibos, and hausas sit together to decide on something that can be of value to everyone, reaching an agreement could take a lifetime because each tribe suspects the other, let alone all african countries with so divided cultures and mentalities. That will take eternity for it to materialize. I dont want my future grandkids to become grandparents themselves before the African continent decide on a common currency. So, the francophones know what they're doing and it's their best alternative for now.

He's very right. The reason is because our west-african countries don't have the required apparatus to have a common currency. Our economies is cancerously unstable compared to our european folks. There will be lots of inter-plays before it can be authorized.
I think we should bury the idea of a common currency

Let Nigeria keep NGN

Add me on this conversation.. i wanna know why because i am not understanding since 1983 during the military era..


Princedapace:
can we meet one on one?

Can I call u my self? I will load 5k airtime and speak with u! I want u to defend Buhari soundly on call or physical communication!

I want u to justify why u called Buhari intelligent! If we could meet, that would be fine, but if we cant meet, we can still do virtual meeting and discuss like matured adults or we can do voice call. whichever one, pls, do not decline. I want to tell u why Buhari is not fine and intelligent and why those who are against him are not saboteurs.

I can also see that u are already calling some people 'silly'. Prove me wrong, be a man or a woman who can reason logically without insult. I want to challenge u logically.

Valid points raised, France and their modern day colonization should leave us be

God Bless The President
france has those francophones in their pockets, they want to add Nigeria and ghana to complete list under the guise of single currency. Why should france be the guarantor of the currency? Thief!
