When Obasanjo took over in 1999, crude oil price was about $30 per a barrel. Later in the years of his administration, prices improved but it was not over $70 per a barrel.

Learn your history and stop being fed propaganda by a clueless APC government.

Obasanjo and his team were just damn good in managing the Nigerian economy.

Even back then how many foreign goods and technology was Nigeria importing compare to now ?

Mobile phones was just getting to Nigeria unlike now that everyone want to use the latest gadgets, the demand for forex wasn't really high.

Jessyjeff:
Please, just say APC mismanaged the Naira by over borrowing and floating of the currency.

When Obasanjo took over in 1999, Nigeria had around 3 billion dollars in foreign reserve. Nigeria was still then heavily dependent on importation; he didn't float Naira, and he didn't stop subsidy on petrol, diesel and Kerosene.

Yet, Nigeria's inflation rate was under 15% and food was affordable too. He assembled able hands who were able to grow the economy and pay Nigeria's debts or negotiate some debt forgiveness.

Why did everything about Nigeria's economy start deteriorating rapidly immediately APC took over government in 2015? APC has no clue about economic management, especially on federal level.

You forgot that Revenue from crude oil Nigeria major souce of income was still at an all time high during Obasanjo government unlike now that we almost can't even get buyers for our crude oil.

You guys should let omo igbo rest
they have been getting serious beating across all sectors.

goaldynboy:
Roosevelt Ogbonna was holding a higher position than this woman;

Roosevelt Ogbonna has more qualification, more experienced and have been in Access Bank before this woman!

Roosevelt Ogbonna is the one to succeed Wigwe, if Wigwe was to retire alive, but he has been rigged out!

This woman has used politics and her HIDEOUS relationship with the Chairman of the bank to grab a position she is not qualified to handle!

I only pity Access Bank future!!

I wonder if you would say the same thing if she was an Igbo woman lol

toujurs:
Mr man shut up, yoruba's don't have levels. Your men are lazy people, this so called acces holding is owned with the combination of two banks both owned from the south east and south south. It's only noise your people are good at.

Which sector in Nigeria can you withstand Lazy Yoruba men lol ?

Duru009:
If you notice most banks in Nigeria are been controlled by Northerners and Yorubas. Access bank is a south South Bank just like Zenith bank.
They should have find someone competent from that region. Is just like removing the CEO of Wema bank which is a South west bank and putting an Igbo man which is IMPOSSIBLE.....

Honestly, this is so sad !!

Wail and cry harder lol

blowjohn:
Why are Nigerians like this?
So u want to tell me that 1 million naira per month is much or what?

Look that ahud be the minimum wage.

Tin of milk don enter 7k.

Correct chicken suya now na frm 5k.

Nigeria GDP and economy can't handle it

What is the federal government making as revenue per month to be paying 600$ as minimum wage.

Obviouslyblunt:
that is just $670 monthly.

And so ?

Do Nigeria have the GDP and economy to handle it ?

WorldRichest:
I think you are the Oloriburuku because I am not wretched like you

Typical statement from an Oloriburuku lol

Only a wretched person would called someone that is more successful than them in all aspect an Oloriburuku .

Can an Oloriburuku became a minister in the UK ? You are the Oloriburuku here for just throwing the word around.

WorldRichest:
Oloriburuku Oloshi somebody.

Olosho wanted to be PM, and went to say rubbish about her country, despite that, the other MP didn't vote for her

She still went far in the contest.

I wonder who the Oloriburuku is between you two ?

She is not the politicians looting away your destiny in Nigeria.

SoNature:
It's quite funny that despite the fact that the UK has stolen so much from the countries they colonized, their GDP is just $3 trillion while ordinary China is doing $18 trillion. There's power in having a productive population.

It is funny how you guys twist logic because of hatred.

What's the population of UK and China ?

You call China that is the most populous country on earth ordinary, UK is still better per capital bases.

Reason why Nigeria is like this is because we have too many dumb people that believe in stuff like this.

If a girl can go to the extent of telling you what she's not just to put fear in you and manipulate you then she can do anything or say anything, It's a big red flag of a very desperate girl that will go to any length to manipulate and use you, but most guys don't use their brain because they are desperate for the coochie, they will ignore every red flags until it crashed heavily on their head.

Too many low IQ people in this country.

Goodmarlian:
putins yesterdays interview was one of the best any leader can ever deliver, i dont even think any American 21st century president is that intelligent,talkless of Nigeria no wonder they have failed in all their attempt to overthrow putin.
putin singlehandedly summarised Russian history in less than 2 hours, people learned what they have never learnt about russia even in school you will see in putin a leader who loves and wants to unify his motherland ,Did you know the modern day ukraine is the motherland of all russian speaking people?
the first first russian civilization started in ukraine named (kievan Rus) kiev was the capital when moscow was just a village,but russia lost ukraine to other more powerful states like hungary and poland but later reconquered the land,when ukraine was under the rule of poland and hungary there were attempt to alter or disrussify the identity of russians living in ukraine that was were the ukrainian identity emerged,ukrainian language is a corrupted russian mother tongue,
this is exactly what the Nigerian state did to the igbos in the south south,alter their identity and worked very fine,well as a fan of putin i believe real countries are not neccesarily unified peacefully it is through blood and struggle,paraventure Nigeria breaks up in the future we must claim unify every inch of our motherland outside the southeast at all costs its non negotiatiable from the igbos in benue,kogi,Rivers,delta every inch of the 41000 square kilometers of igboland.

It is fair game then, don't wail because of the Biafra civil war because real countries are not unified peacefully, according to you.

It is hypocritical to support Biafra that's already part of Nigeria to break away from Nigeria but think Ukraine that's not part of Russia should be part of Russia and conquered by putin.

South East and all the resources there belong to Nigeria since ancient times and we will keep it so even if we have to waste another million.

stevnwigw1:
due to ur foolishness up till now you could not refine crude. Tell me that it is an igbo man that is Nigeria President and we have not started refining our own crude, go to dangote refinery you will see Indians everywhere

You guys are really delusional, is it Yoruba and hausa governing you in your redmud states ?

I thought Igbo men are all billionaires why can't all the Igbo billionaire in Oil business like Arthur Eze and co come together to build a refinery even if it is a small one ? they are more comfortable with the easy money they are getting.

Dangote did it and you were all wailing, what is stopping Anambra from supporting Authur Eze and co and even own part of the share to build a small refinery in Anambra ?

You did rather be happy to have a brewery built by Agulu Obi so Anambra people can continue to get drunk.

Same way Ibeto would rather import cement than manufacture cement in Nigeria, all you like is easy and fast money, even Agulu Obi is a chief importer but would be preaching manufacturing and production.

sreamsense:
Mention three Igbos with brains that you found and sellable to Nigerians that can rescue this nation because I can't find one at moment. Show us what their convincing contributions to the South east that may qualify them for Nigeria project.

If they even have brain they wouldn't be trying so hard to sell Peter Obi lol

stevnwigw1:
Okonjo Iwuala to mention a few. When Good luck Jona was in power, Igbos managed the economy of Nigeria, can you compare then and now? Can you compare 1960 when Igbos we're in charge of every sector and now? Where someone that didn't go to good primary and secondary schools is ruling you

You are delusional if you think Tinubu didn't go to school lol, you were part of the cabal that wrecked the economy.

You mean same Okonjo Iweala that was borrowing to pay salary?

Most Nigerians survive under 1 dollar a day during GEJ government and are still surviving under 1 dollar per day today.

Because things were cheaper at that time doesn't mean it is better, there were still widespread unemployment, poverty and infrastructure deficit during GEJ government, even security was worse because bomb was going off in Abuja but most Nigerians have short memory.

ok

How a Yoruba prince looks like in the 1930s. All the attires he is wearing were manufactured locally - And by Yoruba people.

Pls, ladies who do u luv in a relationship pls is it ur partner or his acc balance because ladies are now turning luv definition to "LOVE IS MONEY"

Only stupid men believe in Love, there is only lust and obsession.

The moment you realise a woman can only like you for what you provide and she can benefit from you it is the moment you will have peace of mind. You can't blame them though it is nature, same way men are attracted to women with good look and sexy build.

A woman can like you for so many things.

It can be money, fame and popularity, your physical build, how you handle her in the bedroom, your confidence and charisma, your career and job, your status in the community or at work, your characters, Your talents and skills , your sense of humour etc.

Even if a man is broke you must still have some of what i listed above, so the women you are with are with you for some of it, as it is with everything there are always other guys better than you in what attracted your women to you. Same way men are attracted to beautiful women, men even cheat and are disloyal more than women sometimes.

CandidAdmin:
Bros, calm down. If you can't comprehend what I'm trying to say.
I'll say it in simple terms.

Cheating, Divource baby mama, e.t.c are fast becoming a Menace in our society that needs to be...

Which menace is it causing ? Living alone is still better than being in a toxic relationship, no one should stay in marriage until tragedy like a husband killing his wife or wife killing husband happen.

Nigeriableeds:
People that do not have money but have life no know wetin God do for them.

Typical Nigerian so brainwashed with religion.

So your all powerful god can not make someone rich and protect them ? how is he even a god if he can not do something as simple as that ? millions of poor people died every day, so what should we say about that ?

Politics is an hypocritical game in Nigeria.

Anyone that think a man can change Nigeria is delusional, even if you put Peter Obi there and he didn't remove subsidy and free float the naira, Nigerians are still going to wail every day and still remain one of the poorest countries on earth.

When Petrol was below 100 naira Nigeria was still a poor country with poor infrastructure and majority survive on a dollar per day. Even if price of everything is high now, most Nigerians still survive on a dollar per day, you just have the illusion things were better under Jonathan, Yaradua or Obasanjo because the prices were lower.

CandidAdmin:
Of course no one will regret it now. It's during old age we'll most likely regret it

Don’t assume everyone is like you that will regret divorcing a cheating woman.

Apart from all the dangers like diseases, raising bastards, a toxic woman that doesn't respect and care for you, constant cuckhold and losing all respect in the community and living a shameful life because you call yourself an husband of a community toilet and borehole, a woman that is likely going to poison you and orchestrate your death to please one of the men she is cheating with, you must really have no self
esteem, dignity and self respect to think you will regret divorcing a cheating woman.

You think a woman that doesn't respect you and think you are shit worth living with till old age ? that's like living a life in misery and penury lol You will not even live till old age.

CandidAdmin:
The same women are most likely sleeping with married men.


Whether you admit it or not you admit it or not, you won't like where our society is going with the kind of men and women we have in this society.

Also, in this generation, Don't expect a faithful partner if you aren't gonna be faithful.

Are you even a man ? look at you defending cheating women so shamelessly. You will never see a woman defend men cheating.

Have you ever seen where a woman defend cheating men ? men are always to be blame for everything but there are men like you ready to tolerate and defend every bullshits from women.

Don't assume every men is like you that is not going to be faithful or enjoy getting cuckhold.

No gender should tolerate cheating because it is just very dangerous. There are sexually transmitted diseases and high chance of raising bastards, once couple started cheating too the respect and love they have for each other wouldn't be there anymore.
It is just going to be two people living a miserable lives because they are scare of being alone.

CandidAdmin:
That's the thing. They don't care again.
Even after divource, as long as you're paying child support, they're fine.

The whole divource and cheating thing is not something we should encourge.

Who said it is for whether they care or not.

Divorce is for keeping your peace of mind and dignity it is not about punishing the women unless you really enjoy getting cuckhold and your woman getting pounded mercilessly by strangers on your private bed.

This is why it is better to Divorce if your wife is not giving you any peace and respect you deserve.

I'm sure the signs were there a long time ago but he was not strong enough to just pull the plug. Only stupid men take for better for worse and till death do us apart marriage vows seriously. The moment you stop having any peace of mind and stop getting the respect you deserve in a marriage, you should be gone and dust in the wind unless you want to live the rest of your life in misery and penury because once a woman you knew as a good woman turned bad she is gone forever and once she lost that respect she once had for you, you are never getting it back again, you can only recover part of it if you disappear.

Some men prefer to stay in a toxic marriage because they are scare of being alone, reason why tragedy like this happens.

robinso01:
I thought China is one of the most developing countries,so why the high Japa rate among Chinese people ?

Chinese Government is still very restrictive and authoritarian.

It can be very suffocating to live in China with so many rules and censorship, every little thing that can even make the citizen think of criticizing the government is banned and censored.

Most Chinese in USA like the freedom they enjoy in USA and won't even consider going back to China.

Same way Taiwan would rather be destroy than to be join together with China oppressive government.

Troops of the Nigerian Army on Wednesday succeeded in rescuing 18 female kidnapped victims from their captors and handed them over to the Katsina State Government.

This is coming days after 55 wedding guests who were said to be escorting a bride home along the Damari town in Sabuwa Local Government Area of the state were kidnapped by suspected bandits.

The Brigade Commander, 17 Brigade of the Nigerian Army, Katsina, Brig.- Gen. Oluremi Fadairo, said that the soldiers took a rescue operation to the bandits’ enclaves at Yan-Tumaki and Dan-Ali forests.

He explained that the troops successfully engaged the terrorists in a gun battle, after which they successfully rescued the victims.

Fadairo then handed over the victims to the State Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Dr Nasiru Mu’azu.

He stressed the readiness of the Nigerian Army to continue to work for the restoration of permanent peace in the state.

The commander charged the personnel under the Brigade to sustain such rescue operations to ensure that all other kidnapped victims were freed.

Responding, Mu’azu restated the maximum commitment of the government to restore permanent peace in the state.

Mu’azu explained that Governor Dikko Radda has invested hugely in the security sector, adding, ” The investments have been yielding positive results.”

The commissioner commended the military and other security agencies for their courageous service toward restoring peace in the state and urged them to maintain the tempo.


He, therefore, advised the bandits, kidnappers, and other criminals to repent immediately or face a myriad of unpalatable consequences.

The commissioner equally assured security agents that the government was making necessary efforts to rescue the women kidnapped on their way to a wedding ceremony in Sabuwa Local Government.

He further advised the people especially in the front-line local governments to avoid night travel for their safety.

Mu’azu also urged people of the state to always assist in providing useful information about criminals and their hideouts.

The commissioner later presented N100,000 to each of the rescued victims on behalf of Radda.

The rescued victims, all female, were kidnapped at different times from Karaduwa, Sayaya, Dangani and Wawar-Kaza communities of Matazu, Musawa and Kankara Local Government Areas.

One of the victims, Firdausi Bishir, a 13-year-old JSS two student, said that she was abducted from Sayaya and had spent 91 days at the bandits’ den.


She thanked the Almighty Allah, who in His infinite mercy, the soldiers were able to rescue them.

The girl also thanked the governor for giving them the money to establish businesses after returning to their homes.

EmperorCaesar:



That CBN dept relocation to SW isnt my headache as my opinion here wouldnt change a thing but then, If Ndume was a SE person, Low IQ individuals here would have started telling us how its every Yoruba guys dream to marry an Igbo girl

Thing is, the liberalism of Yoruba men is so expressive that they can marry from any tribe, In fact, They've produced two presidents and none had a Yoruba woman as his first lady(none has an Igbo first lady too)


Kudos to a tribe that doesnt discriminate...Great Men is what they are

Remi Tinubu is still a Yoruba woman though

Remi Tinubu father was from Ogun state so how the hell is she not Yoruba? even if her mother was itshekiri, and even itshekiri is very related and connected to Yoruba.

Only stella wife of Obasanjo that truly count as not Yoruba.

Eunoiaa:
The kind of comments y'all make to stranger women online must be some kind of fetish p*rn at this point.


Just what the heck is the meaning of all this??

undiluted truth often sound like that

I'm just trying to help her cure her delusion.

I roll with some men at that age and young girls of 20 and above fight to get their attention. How many men are fighting for the attention of a 35, 40 women ? unless she is unusually beautiful and have the character to match.

She can only win that age war against a man that don't know his value or valueless, any woman that think otherwise is delusional lol.

pocohantas:
If they change, women can pick them. Until then, they should keep telling us they don't benefit from marriage.

Marriage is a cage women designed to imprison men. Keep deceiving yourself by pretending you can win, tick tock the clock is ticking and by the time you wake up it may be too late.

You will just settle for one aboki goro at 40 or 50 while men at that age can still get fresh virgins of 20 years and above.
