 Politics › Re: How Top Military Officers Pressured President Tinubu To Drop Nuhu Ribadu As NSA by savcy(m): 10:53am On Jun 16, 2023 |
To be fair, they're right. An ex-policeman cannot head a body that every security agency answers to. However, Tinubu must do well to appoint a southern Christian veteran as NSA boss. There seem to be this sympathy for insurgents that pervades that office. Let's have a Southern Christian this time. 85 Likes 4 Shares |

Okowa used Delta State funds that they didn't even have, because he borrowed a lot, to fund a campaign that was doomed to fail from the getgo. Nothing can justify borrowing billions few months to his tenure expiration. |

| Politics › Re: What Will Be The Impact Of CBN Free-floating Naira Policy To The Economy? by savcy(m): 8:56pm On Jun 14, 2023 |
The naira eased at N668-$1at the I&E window today. I don't anticipate a drastic loss in value of the naira at all, and among many reasons, it's the fact that people don't seem to understand that no one actually knows the true value of the naira. Yemi Osinbajo mentioned once that, if export volume determined strength of currency, why didn't the naira gain value when oil hit north of $95/b. Several unconventional factors determine the value of the naira with the BDCs being the principal element in the intricate structure that's the Nigerian FX market. Artificial scarcity is another culprit. I think the market would stabilize, and if a rapid loss in value ensues, the government knows precisely what to do. All in all, as scary as it may seem, the policy is a step in the right direction. 1 Like 1 Share |

So sad. Nigerians are acutely averse to safety measures for some bizarre reasons, and this isn't just about water transportation. We just love to put ourselves at risk of mortal harm for no good reason. You see artisans doing construction work on scaffolds of high-rise buildings with no safety harness on. There are just a handful of jetties that make life-jackets compulsory for ferry and boat passengers. The state govts do not regulate these local jetties, and yet every month boat mishaps happen. All it takes to avoid accidents like this one is to strap a life-jacket on, and yet we don't do it, and instead fill the boat beyond capacity and pray nothing happens along the way. |

One thing I can never understand is, why a man who has the resource to buy as many exotic vehicles as he wishes would still go ahead and steal the ones he bought for the office of the governor.

Reminds me of the John Wick 4 movie quote, "A man's ambition should not exceed his worth". Well, in this case Nigeria has plenty of worth. Aiming for a 6% GDP growth would spur the President and the economic team to work hard. Nigeria still remains an untapped goldmine. There's is a ton of things we can do to achieve 6% GDP growth. 1 Like 1 Share |

The actual problem isn't the tendency to loot. It's the fact that those who engage in it go scot-free, thereby encouraging others to replicate the act. If state funds, and not private funds, was used to purchase the missing vehicles then someone must go to jail, or else, the cycle continues unabated. 126 Likes 11 Shares |

I would understand if states like Lagos and Rivers want a lot of SAs. What I don't understand is these RMFAC surviving states doing so. At the end of the day, the state's IGR would remain the same, and more debt would be accrued from servicing these guys. They do this because there's always money to go obtain in Abuja every 23rd of a month. This is specifically why we have to seriously consider fiscal federalism. If every state survived on what they earned, 90% of these governors wouldn't even want to be governors. 22 Likes |

I am fully OBIDIENT, and it pains me to agree with Reno. The manner with which Tinubu handled this whole subsidy saga, and how he reasoned with the various unions is nothing short of admirable. I admire it well well. If he continues down this path, I probably may need to study his good sides and learn a thing or two. I envisaged a completely messy situation with Labour and TUC, but he handled it with finesse. He did promise that no strike would be recorded in his government, so we wait. Any leader who is accessible and easy to reason with is destined for greatness, and Tinubu is well on his path. I hope for all our sakes he performs. 11 Likes 2 Shares |
