Gbawe:
I must ask, what the eff are you talking about? You are the one who is clueless about the economy. There is not much Buhari and the APC can do, in the short term, that will give the miracle results only ignorant and mainly prejudiced folks clamour for because of our peculiar economic vulnerability and challenges, worsened by the GEJ I am sure you supported, you guys are simply failing to acknowledge. Britain for example is still recovering from the 'credit crunch' of many years ago and I watched a few days ago as the UK CBN governor explained that interest rate will stay at the record low 0.5% it had been running at for 7 years !!!!! The opinion is that the British economy is still not 'robust' enough to continue recovering if interest rate rose.

If a country with Britain's economic options and flexibility is still carefully managing its economy many, many years after the credit crunch then what manner of miracles are you unreasonable folks expecting from Buhari and the APC in months given our challenges and unique situation which makes Nigeria one of the most, if not the most economically disadvantaged nation in the world currently? What abracadabra do you want to see for our mono economy with oil selling for $27.00 per barrel while our SME sector is moribund and our infrastructural stock is near worthless?

As one example, if electricity supply was not improved appreciably when GEJ sold oil at $110.00 per barrel is it sensible to be screaming at Buhari and the APC about lack of electricity when oil is selling at $27.00 per barrel and we our struggling to pay salary and fund our recurrent expenses? What is wrong with you guys? Constructive criticism is good but there is non of that in your talk and that of others like you. Instead I only note ignorant, petty, illogical and completely banal talk motivated by a very obvious agenda you and others will never admit to yet such is crystal clear and putridly offensive.

bloodyBLOGGER:
stop being childish and tribalistic. How did she perform? She borrowed N470billion to pay salaries just after few months of oil price dwindle. Is that the kind of person you want at the elm of affairs now? Someone that couldn't manage in the time of plenty now being called back by fools to come and row us in this time of little.

bloodyBLOGGER:
your grouse is that your dear ngozi okonjo has been booted out and replaced by a Yoruba lady, that's all!

Or, how many times do you want to be told the favourable conditions those above names worked? How many of them existed when the price of crude oil became 28dollars per barrel?

Pls stop reasoning like a boy high on tribalism.

seunmsg:
You Igbos really need to stop this nonsense. Dollar was already exchanging for N220 at the parallel market before PMB was sworn in. So, how was Emefiele okay before Buhari showed up?

See, the CBN governor is in charge of monetary and forex policy. If he can't fix the problem, let him resign and allow a more competent person to take up the position. This silly idea of blaming the finance minister who only assumed office less than 3 months ago is just crazy. You bigots should blame your clueless Emefiele who has been in office since 2014.

bloodyBLOGGER:
you igbos most times make one marvel at your low sense of reasoning. Maybe it's cos you cloud it with tribalism that's why it never makes sense.

You said she met the naira at 160 to a dollar and left it at 210 which someone says it was actually 215 she left it at. How come you applaud such awfulness? During her service, the price of crude oil was at an all time high. If at all there was a time the naira shouldn't have depreciated against the dollar, it was during her tenure. Yet, the naira sunk against the dollar. The period you claim the naira hovered between 165 and175 was the period global oil price was at an all time high.

I don't understand why you tribalistic folks feel you now need to blame the new minister of finance by claiming she is not competent cos the naira has become 305 to a dollar. Don't you know the price of crude oil in the market- $28? It means the economy of any nation that is based on crude oil will crash.

Instead of blaming the ogun state born minister, blame Ngozi okonjo iweala for not diversifying the economy and for also looting the treasury with her cronies.

omonnakoda:
Any person is more suited than the last one. Any person is an improvement on the last one who received MORE OIL REVENUE THAN ANY FINANCE MINISTER IN AFRICAN HISTORY and failed to save for the rainy day. She ran on the Federal side budget deficit after deficit borrowing for unproductive schemes like Abuja light rail and so on. A complete disaster

Instead of facing her failings she blames state governors for her failure to save THE FEDERAL GOVT SHARE OF EXCESS CRUDE ACCOUNT which she spent without appropriation

doctokwus:
He has a tenured post and there is sth like the senate having to approve his sack,if i am not mistaken.Besides,his ethnic group presents another challenge.
But,pmb is just unnecessarily postponing the inevitable.
Just like the govt seems to be dillydallying with GEJ's arrest,emefiele has several reasons to have been sacked since yesterday:gross incompetence and his involvement in the sleazes under the GEJ govt. If there is one cbn gov that has failed in all aspects of central banking,its Emefiele.Why he remains there is known only to the govt.
To avoid cries of victmization,another Igbo can be appointed and there are countless more competent ones than Emefiele.

Is that all?

Where is the award?
There are countless of great men who left the world without honour nor even known for their works. But what conspicuous the few that are remembered today or known is " HONOUR "

StOla:
Maybe the other tribes were allowed to take their own goods out?

Funny, an Igbo dude here once beat his cheast that Igbos decide who gets what in Lagos. One of many reason why I have no empathy when government decides how Lagos is developed.

Another Igbo dude was reminded some years ago here that he had not condemned a certain demolition of markets in Abia State. He retorted saying as long as it was done by his tribesman, it was certainly done with good intentions for the state.

I also believe this demolition was done with good intentions for my state, which will not have any recourse to another tribe's opinion on the matter.

I dey laugh them. Igbos shouting marginalization are the lazy Igbos. From my little stay with the Igbos, they are way way industrious, they have good business sense to take nigeria out of it's misery. But the lazy once who has moved out of nigeria and suffered in the hands of there slave masters abroad are the onces making noise. Can you imagine someone with a british passport coming to cause trouble in Nigeria? When the war starts, he goes back to Britain and will watch from afar. Where is Asari Dokubo today? He has gone back to Benin republic where his business is to mind his business. It's high time the igbo youths think before they follow a supposed messiah
