Nigeria just needs to build our real economy by producing things we consume and if possible increase our export.

Once we can do that, the rate of inflation will go down and naira will appreciate in value. What we were having before was a cosmetic growth not built on the fundamental foundation of economic development. It was solely on crude export, fixed exchange rate that skewed towards the elite that had political influence thereby create arbitrage for only a select few. That was not sustainable which was why Nigeria could not meet with its obligations before

Our problem for a long time is the artificial growth we were having.

Let's produce food for our consumption and export, produce textiles we wear and if possible export. We need to reduce our consumption of foreign food and materials and encourage local production. Ina very short time, our economy will grow.

We produce yam, cassava, beans, potatoes, plantain, oranges, cocoa and many more yet these things are expensive in this present day. The increase in fuel price is the major problem we have.

Next year will be bloody.

Wetin wan dey bush before, if not wild animals and criminal hideouts?

He’s one of the potential APC gubernatorial aspirants for 2027 right?

Naira to USD is 1.55?

This is a country under serious sanctions and also at war on many fronts. Nigeria is not at war, not facing sanctions from any international body but our leaders have sworn to make Nigeria living hell for its citizens while they lavish in opulence.

Paraman:
So you're in Lagos, I thought you live in Anambra or Abia

I’m more Lagosian than you bigot. To you everyone against your Lord T-Pain is whatever it is you think they are.

Myopic human.

Emperor Teezy.

There are petrol stations that sell lower than NNPC or the same price as NNPC in Lagos.

Tinubu and his economic team should be humble enough to seek opinions from Obj and his economic team on debt forgiveness.

Multi-lateral agencies like the IMF look for impoverished developing countries to exploit.

Imagine the interest on principal and also sure that some of those funds we diverted , mismanaged or over inflated.

You expect that arrogant someone to beg or seek people he perceived as opposition’s opinion?

Yet they tell the people to bear with the government policies that’s for the betterment.

I just dey pity those that believe there is any light at the end of the tunnel.

I used to believe Nigeria will be better, but with the way we run things, it’s not a curse, we may take another century.

ElSudani:
If only some Africans can think beyond food and procreation.
This reforms no matter how successful will still not help some people just because of their mindset.

In Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, physiological is the first and most important. If that is not achieved, the rest of the 4 needs above it are unattainable.

Yoruba says “When hunger is out of poverty, poverty is gone”.

Food is the most basic need for any creation. If as humans we’re unable to feed ourselves well, how do you expect such human to think and have a creative mindset?

PHIPEX:
These tales by moonlight stories are becoming Childish. It's one thing to attack the govt but another thing to demonise Nigeria; the later affects all of us one way or another.

This is becoming a self hate. It's Inferiority complex that makes a person to pull down her own people in other to gain public acceptance.

No matter how far Kemi runs and denigrades Nigeria, she will always be referred to as a Nigerian.

Do Nigeria police extort citizens or not?

God1000:
Grow up Kemi and stop behaving like a baby, making disparaging remarks about Nigeria every now and then doesn't speak well of her.


I wonder what she's trying to achieve

What’s the lie in what she said?

Can you swear by whatever you believe in that you or anyone you know have not had a bad experience with the police in Nigeria?

If una like make una talk say na lie she lie. We see police extortion daily in Nigeria.

Before the disbandment of SARS we all knew who and what that arm of police represented.

For this country to progress, we must do away with hypocrisy.

If I were told when I was younger that there would ever be a time when motor park louts would be glorified to such extent, I’ll not believe it.

Wetin una Dey import go USA before. We consume from them. So they should be the one scared , because if we decide to look else where dem go suffer am. Nigeria is one of the reason dollars has strenght . Cus we don’t produce jack we consume instead.

The Nigerian president official vehicle is a Cadillac. His phone is most likely an iPhone.

Most of the aircraft in the Airforce are from the USA.

casualobserver:
How much is the aid? See your low level mentality! Is it because of $1b a year that you want to sell your descendants into slavery? You say they are the highest spenders, did they spend it on you? Borrow yourself a brain abeg!

lol. Una go learn. Even your president dare not say all these rubbish una they yan.

Anyway which way, IGR must increase so our politicians can loot more.

Tax Masters Government.

casualobserver:
Use your brain, we export nothing to America, they don’t buy our Oil. We have little to lose.

The only thing we “export” to America these days are human beings.

The aids your politicians receive are in Naira? Who is the biggest contributor to IMF and World Bank we borrow from?

You think it’s only about exporting? Which country on earth has a higher spending power than the USA?

These aides and misyarning.

You compare Nigeria to Russia. Russia that still trades with the USA. Do you think if Nigeria is sanctioned by the USA we can take it like Russia?

Una wey dey talk say na slave talk.

The official vehicle of the Nigerian president is a Cadillac from the USA.

Majority of the aircrafts in the Nigerian Air Force are from the USA.

Avenue for some people to make millions.

SHE IS A ROTTEN LIAR FROM HELL AND YOU ARE LYING ON HER BEHALF.

I wasn’t born yesterday.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS LIKE IN THE 1990s.

VICTORIA ISLAND where she lived was NEVER a place that matched her description of hiding under the bed because she was hearing her neighbours screaming over gunshots from armed robbers, “wondering if her house would be next”.

THAT WAS A BRAZEN LIE.

She also LIED that lizards were coming out of the taps in her house.

SHE IS A HORRIFIC, CHRONIC LIAR.

AND YOU CAN REST ASSURED THAT SHE NEVER WALKED 1/10th OF A MILE TO FETCH WATER IN HER LIFE, despite LYING that she walked “several miles”.

She’s SCUM OF THE EARTH.

Okay then. You know her story better than herself.

Cryomancer:
The fact that it doesn't request code before switching to Android explains why you think the sound is great.

Let me explain:
When I first got my car, even if I disconnect the battery terminal, it doesn't request for code, not until I had a minor fault in the stereo and I called a Honda stereo specialist. After fixing it, he explained to me that my sound system has been by-passed not to request for code which in turn has tampered with the sound quality. I didn't believe him initially until he did it for just 7k and Boss, the sound was mad after he restored it to factory standard and gave me the code to keep whenever I need to unlock the radio for any reason. I was shocked at that discovery.

I initially used to think my sound system was great not until that guy opened my eyes. Now I can't even increase my volume pass 12 anymore due to the mad ass sound, yet you still feel my car vibrate from outside due to the sound. Initially I always set my volume at 22-26, but now I no fit try am again


I'm sure that you'll also notice the difference in sound production if you find someone with same kind of your car which still has the stereo codes intact.

P.S: I'm an audiophile

I don’t take my volume beyond 10 most times. I only increase to be very loud if I choose to constitute nuisance.

Topman7:
SHE TOLD NO TRUTH.

ALL SHE HAS DONE IS TELL LIES IN BRITAIN ABOUT HER LIFE IN NIGERIA.

Do you know who Kemi Badenoch is?

She is a niece of former VP Osinbajo.

She is an upper class girl who lived in Victoria Island and attended the expensive, high brow private school, International School Lagos.

Her dad’s a doctor and mum a university professor.

She has been LYING in England that she lived a rough life in Nigeria, was hiding under her bed at night from hearing armed robbers attacking her neighbours and “wondering if her house would be next”.

She claimed she walked for miles to fetch water, and that lizards came out of the taps in her house in Nigeria, and that she “doesn’t want Britain to become like the country I ran away from.”

SHE IS ACTUALLY DEMONIC.

The British have latched on to her, and you will soon see their media guys here in Nigeria looking to investigate further this girl’s background, and once they discover that she has been LYING about her background in Nigeria, she’s toast.

Finito.

That she is a niece to Osibanjo doesn’t mean anything. She’s not his niece but a cousin to him based on maternal side.

About the water, what she said is that she had to walk some distance to fetch water because the government did not provide water. It is true, Lagos the most developed state in Nigeria has no pipe borne water, talk more of faraway Borno.

They were times armed robbery was rampant in Lagos, Nigeria. She is in her 40s and if she spent 6-10 years living in Nigeria for her secondary education that’ll translate to around the 90s. Home robbery by armed robbers was very rampant. I also have a personal experience where armed robbers came into my street in Surulere, entered homes and robbed people. I lost an uncle then, he was shot dead by the robbers. This was in June 1998.

We cannot call her a liar. That she is related to Osibanjo doesn’t mean she enjoyed his affluence.

Osibanjo in the 90s was a lawyer, could have been well to do but he didn’t have the affluence he has now then.

Also the child of a doctor and a university professor isn’t upper class. That’s middle class.

Cryomancer:
Lucky you.

Before you changed your sound system to Android, does you factory stereo requests for code whenever you disconnect your radio switch or your battery terminal from the battery head?

The type I use isn’t the common type used in Nigeria.

No it doesn’t request code when I disconnect battery terminal.

PS: ignore the 900km/h. It was a glitch. Hehehe

Person say she’s not Nigerian, una dey force am to be Nigerian.

Kemi is a Yoruba name not a Nigerian name.

All she said about the leadership of Nigeria is true.

She did not attack or condemn the country but the useless people parading themselves as leaders.

Agriculture is life from time immemorial

Oil was just discovered in the 20th century.

Now, most countries are shifting form oil to renewable energy sources but is any shifting from agriculture? Certainly not!

Fast means of getting money will last.
But gradual means will last for generations.

For example, imagine a man who planted cocoa in his large farm in the 70s, 80s or early 90s. When he dies, he has transferred wealth to his children and grandchildren and generations.

This is how wealth is built.

We need to start thinking Long term and not immediate or short term.

Not just cocoa, all cash crops.

Wealth not sustained can be ended in two generations. Many successful cocoa farmers in the past that have children not enjoying from it now.

Cash crops were abandoned by our politicians for faster oil money.

MEGAWATCH:
Let's see who Tinubu supporters will support,

They always claim lovers of Nigeria.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Right under your comment is one of them.

If this happened in Lagos, some people will say it’s one man’s legacy.
