See generation wey wan hand over? The same generation that put the nation in this mess today due to bad policies and corruption.

Whatever the younger generations learned, they learned from the older generations. And they’re doing it in a bigger way. No be una generation make money ritual and 419 popular?

How much did Pdp meet naira when taking over from the military regime?

LOL
In 1999 naira to dollar was $1- 85 naira
In 2015 it was $1-216 naira.
% increase = 154.2%

In 2015 APC met it at 216/$
Now it is 1600/$
% increase = 640.7%

PDP in 16 years increased the exchange rate by 154.2%, APC in 10 years increased it by 640.7%.


If APC completes 16 years, we’ll compare 16 years of both parties.

Thought he denied just days ago that they were no missing ammunition.

Why is the state Electoral Commission fixing prices for nomination forms?

Aren't they supposed to be officiating?

No matter how a man is made to look bad by another woman or other women, there are many more women that will take that man.

See what we’re reduced to be celebrating?

An average Nigerian politician puts more money into constructions in the name of capital projects and put so little money in human development.

Wonder why so many of our public properties are ill maintained. Majority of the people are ill educated about usage and maintenance of these things.

Gotocourt:
Is Niger Delta university a state?

The name of the university is Federal University of Applied Sciences, Kaduna. Why is the headline saying Southern Kaduna University?

What the hell is Southern Kaduna university?

Is Southern Kaduna a State?

I see nothing wrong with this. If you want to run a church get a premises and follow the correct procedure. In the developed world do you see churches inside residential houses? Nigerias simply hate following the law

There are mosques in almost every street in most Northern states, I am sure in the same areas where this Emir ban churches, several mosques are present. Why is he selective in judgement? And who gave him such power to place bans?

Give him an appointment or contract and he’ll stop crying.

Reduce your prices and watch ur goods sold quickly.

Low patronage isn’t anybody’s fault in a free market economy.

The money isn’t there for people to buy, which means mechanisms for curbing inflation are working.

Just sit down, read what you wrote and ponder over it.

Your solution to curb inflation is to ensure the people make no money to buy basic food items once considered petty.

Those of you supporting this administration are evil.

Anyway, which way, that fat IGR must complete. Tax the hell out of the people so you and your others can enjoy luxurious living.

Use of Mother’s tongue cannot work. If a child in Katsina is taught in Hausa language and his counterpart in Imo is taught in Igbo, when they meet in a national competition, what language should be used?

Let’s stick to our English as official language and our dialects can be used at home and selected days in schools.

The EFCC that carried Emefiele after his tenure as CBN governor shall bundle Cardoso after his tenure is over as CBN governor.

Bolekaja economists and illiterates in power.

This is the end result.

Is Mr. imam aware that those against Shariah courts in the South West are his fellow Yorubas including many Yoruba Muslims.

If you think you can bully your way to getting Sahriah laws in the South West, you’re joking. The religion status in South West as opposed to the North is balanced.

Shariah cannot work effectively where majority are not Muslims. That’s the ruling binding Shariah. You can use shariah law in your family if you wish, but can’t force it on non Muslims.

TimeManager:
Donald Trump is a corrupt niggarr, we will collect all our penny hidden in America used to develop its economy. It might be true that Trump is a Russian asset, it's getting clearer how he's protecting corrupt Russian Oligarchs.


-Kiss the truth!

Na Trump send your corrupt leaders to launder your country money to his country?

If I were to be a president of those foreign countries, I’ll confiscate all the money politicians from Africa loot and store in my country and never give it back to them.

If you repatriate the money, another set will loot it.

mrvitalis:
Property tax I know is 1 percent the value of the house

So if you leave in a 50 million house u pay 500k yearly

Why did you say Nigerians should pay 800K monthly in taxes?

mrvitalis:
We don't generate enough tax

If you are asked to pay housing tax of 800k every month to have your streets like that would you?

Estates in Nigeria that pay service charge have super clean and landscaped streets too

Nigerians just want nice things for free

How much taxes do South Africans pay?

Typical. Instead of you to address the problems of the country which you created part of it, you instead resort to attacking those that criticise you. Is it not better to silence them by making the economy work better?

casualobserver:
Below are the prices for crude just before Buhari came into power and during his tenure. As you can see Jonathan enjoyed above $100 crude for more than 3 years. Buhari only saw it for 6 months during Ukraine invasion and we did not benefit because our production had halved (his fault) and our production costs had risen. For the majority of Buhari’s tenure crude oil hovered between $40 and $50 occasionally reaching $60. It was only from 2021 that oil sustained a rise above $60, hovering between $60-70.

No president presiding over a Nigerian economy where oil prices are half of what your predecessor enjoyed can ever preside over a robust economy.

In fact as I am looking at these figures where I am seeing $16, $26, $30, $40 a barrel (for some reason pics not uploading) for a man who is not a good manager of the economy he tried! That he was able to build 2nd Niger bridge, the elusive lagos Ibadan express, Apapa express way, construct rail, renovate airports etc , pay for all the 3 refineries….I don’t care what anyone says the man tried.

My comparison is Obj with Buhari. If you cannot answer that, forget it.

casualobserver:
Trading at a maximum of $100 for a few weeks is not the same as trading at a minimum of $100 for close to 2 years. Secondly production during Jonathan’s time was 2.3m bpd. Production during Buhari was closer to 1m bpd. Furthermore production costs during Jonathan were lower than under Buhari. Under Buhari production costs went as high as $40 a barrel due to theft, pipeline vandalism etc. There were times a when price of crude barely covered the costs of production.

Buhari did not manage the economy well, I have never argued that he did but neither did his predecessors. All I said is Buhari left more tangible legacies…

I did not compare Buhari with Jonathan but with obasanjo. Explain why Buhari failed woefully despite having received a much better economy compared to Obj

casualobserver:
We import everything. So even the man who has never seen as dollar in his life will increase his prices. A farmer uses petrol to farm or to transport his goods. Petrol is affected by the exchange rate and the price of oil.

Secondly, if a farmer cannot farm due to insecurity, prices of farm products go up.

Thirdly even if I have no dollar based input, if prices for the things I consume go up. I will increase my prices.

Anything else?

Explain why the price of garri went up from 400 Naira a paint to over 3000 Naira

casualobserver:
They did not grow anything. They were simply lucky that Oil price (which they had no control over) went from $15 under Obasanjo to $110 under GEJ. And what did they do with it? Which roads schools hospitals, rail, airports, etc did they build?

Let me tell you where the oil money went. This was the era when Nigerians started buying private jets, properties in dubai, ghana, Texas, London, Maryland, Miami etc etc. Uk customs started targeting Nigerians bringing cash in ghana must go bags.

During Buhari’s 8 years, crude traded for as high as $100 a barrel and the lowest it sold for was about $50 a barrel, much lower than $15 during Obj’s time, yet he was able to move the GDP almost 4 times higher than he met it. Buhari took it lower by almost half he met it.

What did Buhari and APC do with all the money they made from crude sales and natural gas sales in 8 years? Do not tell me rails, roads or hospitals, majority of those were built using loans from China.

LOL.

Nigerians never learn.

Oche211:
He will regret it later

Surely. A divorcee for that matter.

A paltry £333 pounds a month. Money that’s not up to minimum wage in their countries.

FreeStuffsNG:
The UN should stop depending on USA disproportionately. US is not even the wealthiest nation on earth!

The USA is the wealthiest nation on earth. How many nations do as much donations as the USA?

Namaster:
Miyetti Allah is a TERRORIST organisation.

Their members are ALL OVER the country killing, kidnapping, maiming, raping and razing everywhere they go.

The fact that they have NOT been proscribed is a FAILURE of the FG.

Arresting their leader should be the first step. He should be EXECUTED..

And every member of that terrorist group should be ARRESTED.

Go and arrest Buhari. He is a member and also their grand patron.
