wirinet:They can only do that to key China vital exports to countries like USA that do serious numbers. It'll be stupid for China to devalue its currency or start subsidising Tecno phone sales ,toothpick,tissue and table cloth that is going to Nigeria from China. They're not that stupid please. You cannot use economies of scale to beat super high tarrifs oga,those countries China do that shit with is the ones that they do serious bilateral trade with because both parties have a lot to lose and will end up at a compromise, Not one way markets like Nigeria that can decide to frustrate imports from there and there's nothing China can use to hold them back ,except probably loans they'll ask for with immediate effect. |
wirinet:The way you people assume and throw words around without knowing who you're talking to baffle me a lot. Oga there are countries that have developed their steel sector so much that the economies of scale they've acquired on it has made them unbeatable in the international steel market. They can produce it cheaper and sell cheaper and make Nigeria investing on it stupid since an industrialist can always import from those countries way cheaper than he would have gotten buying from Nigeria. You don't just go about investing out of emotions. Steel isn't a sector that has an international cartel like OPEC that fixes it's price worldwide. If not for OPEC,Nigeria oil would have been useless because countries like US,Saudi,Russia would have use their capacity to make Nigeria oil unsellable and useless. We can discuss without you throwing words around please. |
Kennedyli:Rates wouldn't matter to them much if the CBN is giving them bigger credit(increase credit limit),isn't that so? Commercial banks can't be talking about devaluation affecting their profits for long term loans/mortgages when the capital they used to finance those loans isn't theirs or was gotten on credit from CBN. They can hedge against devaluation and make profits for their shareholders from commercial loans and use the excess credit gotten from CBN to finance long term ones. And please,credit isn't free money mr man,they'll repay. Did FG/CBN tell you that naira based debt servicing is their problem?Did they tell you they lack naira? Where they have issues on debt servicing is foreign dollar based loans as they have to earn it before they repay. The only thing they'll own here is liability for default, not devaluation as whatever transaction they make with CBN is naira based. |
Saintinoo:Steel mining isn't developing here because of cheaper imports of the same steel. It's not government's place to make steel available for industry,let the private sector handle that if they can. I also don't think we aren't manufacturing a great deal because of lack of mining capacities. There are great nations out there that don't even have steel deposits. How then did they do it? Only thing they need to fix is power. |
wirinet:Easy fix,increase Chinese and India import tarriff at the ports to offset local cost disadvantage inefficiencies. ![]() |
Kennedyli:25%? It's not that bad yet,commercial banks are still doing 17-19%. Banks are giving high interests because MPR is still double digit. If CBN reduces MPR,bank will reduce lending rates.Its not rocket science. And yes,banks can give longterm credit if CBN also gives them long term credit facilities(mentioned this cos I saw where you talked about the impossibility of banks to give long term credit because of unstable naira). Devaluation or not. Afterall it's not their money. |
PHOTSEE:Where did I say capital market isn't important? I said we don't need foreign investors in our capital market at this point in our economy because they're the ones putting strain on our naira because they'll eventually have to repatriate their profits/capital. Let them leave the capital market for Nigerians to invest in ,who might have little to no need to use whatever naira they make from it to be chasing fx. |
PHOTSEE:So it was Buhari's credit policy reform that brought about Chinese loan sharks revolutionalising Nigeria's credit space? I no be know ooo.. ![]() So Nigeria basically failed because it didn't attract enough loan sharks to come and give 50% interest,short term credit to vulnerable Nigerians or what? Or maybe you mean CBN failed because it was suppose to be giving loan shark credit packages to consumers ?... ![]() How is credit free money?You're gonna pay back and with interest. Where the trick lies is reducing lending rate.One has to look for ways to mitigate the inflation rate that reducing lending rate will cause,and one way you can do this is via taxation.It can be balanced at the tail end. Money flight by foreign investors in Nigeria is at the Capital market,which is a good thing for a developing economy like Nigeria.We don't need foreign investments at that segment of our fragile economy. They run because they can't get their profits out easily and also their investments have been affected by devaluation. Let them go! How many real foreign businesses in Nigeria have fly their capital that you know? |
Af0nja: ![]() |
Af0nja:If it has the highest number of millionaires per unit area like you claim,why is there no middle class in Nnewi and most of its youths carrying barrows up and down in those dirty markets hauling goods for N100? ![]() I am not interested in "ime-ahia" facts please. For a place that claims to have the highest millionaires per unit area in Africa,I mean the middle class there should be booming ,but its not so apparently. All people can afford to rent there are 15k/month old,poorly constructed, dilapidating ,storey buildings that their landlords have dashed them over their inability to pay rents,plus they combine like 20 of the so called millionaires inside one 3 bedroom flat. I'll suggest you pass because you're stressing me for real with your unrealistic claims, analogies and inferences. |
hayoholla:What's causing the high inflation rate if I may ask? |
PHOTSEE:You think I care about who you vote for? ![]() I am not here for sensationalism please. |
PHOTSEE:Leave who can access credit for the bank to decide,they have trained,paid experts whose only job is to identify who is credit worthy for what volume of credit and who isn't. All the government can do in this case is to reduce lending rate by reducing MPR and the CBN giving banks more credit to disburse,and then in turn look for other ways to checkmate the inflation this will cause and keep it at the barest minimum. I would have explained more but I no get strength to type abeg. |
Af0nja:There's no other way that ensures the circulation of money to lift anyone from poverty asides value!No other way.What?you want to start handing out free naira to people to bridge poverty gap? ![]() Look,cheap accessible credit means lots of people and businesses can/will now want credit to increase capacity/profitability,this process creates more demand for labor/services and its ripple effects and this is how people get lifted from poverty. That was a terrible instance,never make poor examples so you don't come across as ignorant. It's not government's place to raise income oga,leave that to private enterprises. When you've attracted the creation of enough of them in your country,they'll compete amongst themselves to get the best man for the job in their enterprises, one of the ways they do this is by offering bigger pay for labor.That's how income bracket of a nation increases. Government can only set minimum wage. This makes no sense,the consumer determines his/her credit strength by his/her earning potential. If you want more credit strength, earn more money legally! Proceeds of corruption aren't kept in commercial banks ,neither do banks use them for credit eligibility. What they look at is cashflow and not volume of deposit. The capitalist countries didn't just acquire a hundred times Nigeria's economic strength in one day.It was processes like these that led them to where they are today.Nigeria can do same by emulating the same methods. Of course jagaban is smarter than I am,there's no disputing that. Even if it was scripted by someone else,it means he has smart thinking people as his entourage and that's good enough. Peter Obi speaks a lot of dumb economics from his brain which makes little to no economic sense to the trained eye, I rather one who speaks correct from a script than another that spits a lot of garbage from his brain. He wants to make Nigeria an economic powerhouse,yet he saved N75B in a volatile currency,in a state with one of Nigeria's poorest citizens whose biggest prospect of its citizenry is nwaboy and yet sees it as bragging rights /him being an economic wizkid tells me all I need to know about how empty he actually is, Ask him for a step by step guide on how he intends to make Nigeria an export nation like he's been saying and watch him go blank. I chose track record over sweet talks,no offense. Tinubu has told you how he intends to achieve economic progress for Nigeria. I am not campaigning for anyone or make you see reasons to vote tinubu,I just have a penchant for identifying quality when I see it. Cheers. |
Af0nja:For your first paragraph, we can do that by bringing in more working/productive Nigerians in the tax bracket and tax them effectively.This process curbs much of the naira that will be released to finance credit.Win win for everyone and a stabler naira. There's no such thing as effective circulation of money,not even in first world countries. No one will give you N4m credit on an income of N30k/month.Even in the US ,the volume of credit one can access depends on his/her income. Yes,it is succeeding in the most capitalist country in the world(US) where 1% of the populace holds almost all of the nation's wealth.That's kind of how capitalism works. Jagaban is smarter and more sophisticated than all of his fellow contestants, including that overhyped/arm chair economist Peter obi. I hope I've helped to clarify your doubts, Cheers. |
aviara:You don't know what you're talking about. The bank pays innosson cash and give you the consumer credit. You'll owe the bank that in turn owes the CBN and not innosson. I hope I've cured a bit of your ignorance, Cheers. |
Felicity001:I think they're trying to build the local auto industry, not about them wanting to suffer citizens for nothing. Cheap,usable locally made cars will soon start springing up because of this new NCS drive to satisfy that demand. It doesn't make sense for Nigeria to be the dumping ground for old used cars around the world that doesn't produce any substantial productivity for our populace except directly to the owners of these cars,which doesn't benefit government and the society at large in anyway. It's a great move,however I only have problems about the way it was done,of not preinforming importers before hand. |
I keep saying that this man is way smarter than his counterparts running for this election,including the arm chair wannabe economist called Peter obi. Not just credit but cheap ,single digit credit for consumption and businesses. A cash based economy is recipe for corruption and stunted economic growth. |
When I dey talk am ,una dey say I dey craze or I'm not modern. ![]() Na experience with a lot of them make me kill that idea. I need space,I want freedom....na their mantra. One tell me say she's a full grown woman and i should not restrict her movements or tell her what to do, That she is free to go to any country of her choice for vacation and if I'm not coming she'll still go, Or I can't hold her from having girls night out with her friends if they come town(clubbing sef follow),she say make she make those points clear before marriage. Funny thing is I'm way more richer than this person,the gap is so obvious. Sometimes when she starts to cap,dey form levels,i go remind am say I be odogwu, she go stay quiet. Now imagine if she was richer?Suicide! Anything independent woman,my hand no dey. When I ready to marry,I will look for a 22 year old out of university girl,if she must work,there's plenty of room in my business. Carry your so called independence go meet men weh no fit hustle,no carry am come hustler side. You can date them, have casual fun with them but try not to marry them for your sanity's sake and to prevent yourself from emasculation and emotional/verbal torture. There may be good,submissive ones out there but very few and they'll pretend a lot,it takes a very smart man to see beyond their smoke screen. |
GuyWise101:He can go to France and come back the same day sha, One of the Wonders of jetting private. ![]() |
Itsrm:The guy put 2014 Jaguar xj for N31.5m,they almost lynch am that day.. ![]() He's either out of touch with reality or e still dey Learn the work. |
Itsrm:I think this new move by NCS is to purge this country of very old cars. The only part I don't support is them not pre-informing importers like 3-4months ahead of the new directive.Sad. |
Marry very young brides, Avoid all these so called independent women for marriage(I make money too gang),una no dey ever hear. Una go dey shout support ,mature conversations and all those meaningless things,now see. What an embarrassing way to separate,tueh. You can date older ladies but don't marry them,unless you can really vouch for that person and be sure it's love and not pretence. |
Are you male or female? Your response to this will help my decision making process. |

Wasky101:You clear 07 C230 at 2.3m? What kind of business decision is that? Why import it in the first place? You could have gone for newer models cos no one in their right senses will pay 5m for an 08 C300,let alone 07 C230. Wasn't a very smart decision if you ask me. |
Nice countryside,i love nature and places far Away from the menace of capitalism. Enjoy man,cheers. |
Happy birthday |
jamesversion:Reality go soon clear his doubt. ![]() |
jamesversion:I just smh after seeing his price, There's something really wrong with him. How much be 2018 Mercedes E300 weh person go come buy old ass ,unreliable jaguar for N31m? ![]() Even E400 2018 is around that price and is a way better car. Buying this above N10m isn't such a fair deal,let alone 31.5 ![]() |
Mindlog:They may have an alibi to either be with their daughter at the hospital or running around for her health emergencies. You don't expect someone whose daughter is on life support to be babysitting another healthy adult. The boy is 21 years old. I am very certain he will lose this case and be deported back to Nigeria. Where you are doesn't matter,it doesn't give you a say as to how the judiciary or legal system of your host country operates. Cases aren't won via emotions but facts. |
Mindlog:Stop being naive abeg,how long do you think it'll take for him to dash out of their care and make this claim and then effect their arrest in the UK? Just a few hours is enough. |
