Politics › Re: Akinwumi Adesina: Tackle 73% Debt Service To Revenue For Economy To Grow by smirn(m): 7:10pm On Oct 11, 2021
ChimaAdeoye:

Where are those people asking for more borrowing arguing that our Debt - GDP ratio was lower than America's and Japan's. While failing to mention that Japan and America were highly productive nations that did not depend on the price of crude oil and their diaspora remittances to get foreign exchange.

Those deceitful people are now silent after they misled this country into another debt trap.

The sad truth is that the debt servicing bill will continue to rise from 73% to surpass 100% of revenue in a very short period. As we continue the mindless borrowing policy based on the dubious GDP - Debt ratio.
Go and do a better research on this, no need wasting time to educate you.

If the government provides favorable policies and environment for businesses to grow, Nigeria will evolve into an export-centric country but how do you expect businesses to grow when all the policies of this government has been killing businesses?
In case you don't know, these policies affect you and I and not the elites. Na US dey suffer am. Even if cooking gas is sold at ₦1000 or kg the elites can afford it with money stolen from public coffers, na me and u go hear am. Major companies are/have migrated to neighbouring countries due to these policies, we've been seeing the news on nairaland. We've never had it so bad. All we've been hearing are excuses and useless reasons. The billions of dollars they claimed will be used to fix the refineries, do you know they could've used it to build new and more modern refineries? You and I know that my money will enter into private pockets.
I really don't understand how you guys don't seem to know that these people are making policies to make people poorer, and they're doing it on purpose. It's someone who has an empty stomach that'll demand for better welfare, a hungry man will manage any crumbs thrown to him. It's something they've used in the North and now they're trying to replicate it across the country. Las las, na still me and u go suffer am.

Even if the naira falls to ₦1000 to $1, it's actually to my advantage because I earn in hard currency[/quote]Please can you name one or two of these unfavorable policies of the FG and suggest what could have been done otherwise.

If you don't know what to say, why not keep quiet because nobody knows your mind than exposing your dirty mind. In stead of you attacking the messenger why not deal with massage. I wish you and your Generation the way Buhari is handling Nigeria economy, since you are supporting evil.
Ortom has a responsibility for Benue people, as the governor of his state and chief security officer let him tell us what his achievement are during these years. Like Buhari, he too did some appointments into different positions, he should tell us how he has achieved alot from his balanced appointment. This man is just too lazy and complaining at all time. Other governors are taking advantage of their constitutional powers to bring development to their people. Most appointment of the president are subject to approval from the NA.
He is free to go to court and challenge any unlawful appointment by the president

Kill the messenger, throw away the message. Is there anything he said there that is wrong? Buhari has shown timelessly that he's the perfect example of backwardness in every facet of governance. My prayer is that people have suffered enough that next election they'll vote with their brains instead of voting based on tribe or religion
Orton should concentrate on governing his people and give them the dividends of democracy. There are both elected office holders. He is busy challenging the president as if he has no responsibility for the people of Benue state. It's time these incompetent state governors stop hiding under the perceived lapses of the FG as they are both answerable to the people at their different levels. Let Ortom tell us what he has done to solve the problem of Benue people. As a Chief executive let him tell us how he has balanced the appointments in his state. If the president has breach any section of the Constitution he should go to court and stop all these noise making.

Which Lawan and Gbajabiamila are they asking to stop the lifeless from taking more loans? The earlier Nigerians realize that we don't have national assembly at least to what it was meant to be the better. Nigeria has gone to the dogs and it will take years before it will return to the level it was before 2015
Ignorance is one of Nigerians greatest challenge. This loan is already part of the 2021 appropriation act passed into law and form part of the medium term expenditure framework. One of the sources of financing our annual budget is through borrowing.

Who are ones responsible for the insecurity? Is it the government that is killing Nigerians? People like you in politics are the ones sponsoring this insecurity just to claim they said it earlier. The wickedness of Nigerians is indeed consuming them, man inhumanity to it fellow man. Not until we change from our evil ways, this is just the beginning of it all.

Not until Nigerians agree to peaceful opposition politics no matter who will be in power, security will continue to be worse in the country.

When they kidnap your love ones.. u will get sense and see what other forseen in this wicked administration. U will get sense by force
This is simply why kidnapping and other violent crime can never end so soon in Nigeria. It amazes me of our thinking and ideas as a people. These crime are perpetuate by majorly Nigerians who also have access to people's view about their Evil deeds. But am so surprised why everything is politics in this country and we tend to respond to everything in this country based on our political mindset, The wickedness in our heart as people will never make us see progress. A people that in the first instance will never see evil as evil and condemn It and also condemn those directly behind it but rather are quick to berate the authorities are the real enemies within People freely commit crime these days knowing the government will be blamed for it. We have forgotten that the so called bad leadership we have today is a product of a depraved and wicked society that we live. All our institutions are corrupt because they emanated from a corrupt society. Let us as a people naturally begin to value ourselves so hopefully we can build a better society

You are as foolish as your comment.
Where is the peace you referred to, with the senseless killings of innocent citizens in every nook and corners of the country.
No government anywhere in the world can and has ever successfully silenced dissenting voices permanently. When they foolishly try to do that, they only turn such voices into a dangerous group.
Nigeria belongs to all and without justice there can never be peace. There is no peace today because there is no justice.
Do you mean the government is sponsoring the killings? It baffles me that it is easier for Nigerians in the first place to blame government over every incident of insecurity in this country without first condemning our fellow Nigerians who do not want peace for their fellow countrymen. Every act of inhumanity is blamed on government and not the wicked perpetrators
Our government today is a product of the type of society we have. Wicked people expecting good government and good police force whereas we are enemies of ourselves.

Buhari was not up to 40yrs when he carried a coup even though he knew that if it failed he would be executed live or jailed forever!!! Nigerian youths please don't be scared, they cannot do more than they have done already in the past!!
which youths are you talking about, you better be specific. It's your right to protest but not your right to disturb the peace and freedom of other Nigerians who do not buy your approach for a better Nation.

[quote author=Otaz19 post=95222301]History was made this afternoon in Edo State when the leaders of ENDSARS protest engaged Mr. Godwin Obaseki in a face to face meeting, first of it’s kind since the crisis broke out about two weeks ago.

The meeting which was attended by enlarged youth interest groups had in attendance, representatives of National Youth Council of Nigeria, Youth wing of Christian Association of Nigeria, National Councils of Muslim Youth, National Association of Nigerian Students, various Civil Society Groups and organised professional bodies.

The meeting held at the government House banquet hall amidst convivial atmosphere.

Mr. Obaseki acceded to the demand of the ENDSARS protesters and promised to activate the processes for restitution.

In return, the groups agreed to work with government to send out the hoodlums that have hijacked the peaceful process out of the streets of Edo State.

Edo State instantly relaxed the curfew to meet one of the demands of the group.

Details later…
