No. YOU are stupid. One thing you dullards need to understand for once in your self hating lives is that Corruption is an INTERNATIONAL NETWORK. The banks in the UK are a part of that NETWORK. Their active participation in harbouring stolen funds makes them ACCESSORIES in crime.

Now, ALL this writer is saying is that since the Economist is a British based publication, WHY have they not gone after THEIR BANKS acting as the store for our looted monies, IF they cared about corruption in Nigeria?

How does their tarnishing Nigeria's image without addressing THEIR role in its problems help Nigeria or help you?

This writer is making an intelligent observation which you THICK AND DUMB crowd, stuck in your ''what did the Economist say that is not true'' lane - too naive and stupid to see when you're being manipulated by your enemy to hate and blame yourselves more, while they bank your cash.

A RIGHT THINKING NIGERIAN will say to the Economist. ''Sorry. You can go to hell, Economist, UNTIL you accost YOUR banks and pressure them to stop THEIR role as harbourers of our money.''

What stops you from doing that is your slave mentality and racial inferiority complex that makes them irreproachable to you.

With that mentality, you can never end corruption in Nigeria. Because the minute it gets to where the white man is involved (being part of the network) you freeze. And turn pussy cat.



Wrong and stupid deduction.

80% OF THE WORLD comprises developing countries like Nigeria.

They are materially poor because of the history of western destruction of their civilizations and looting of their wealth to fund the current western riches.

Who is in charge of the Nigerian national budget, is it the UK or Nigerians?

It is why Britain has an annual budget of 2 TRILLION dollars, while Nigeria has one of just 35 billion dollars.

Even if our politicians were saints, we would still struggle to develop.

So get your facts straight.

I expected a sound logical defence of your view about the author's points but was dissapointed


In summary, he is insinuating that UK as the haven for storing of looted Nigeria patrimony ,Nigeria official corruption is been abetted by the UK a reason they have no moral justification to call us corrupt, as bad as Nigeria is, there good sides of her outside doom and gloom,with$6T US could not stop Talibans in Afganistan yet they still underrate Nigeria for her inability to eradicate terrorism that had been subdued to an extent

The Western media exhibits the accustomed pigeonhole mentation on its reports on Africa. Poverty, war, insecurity dominate the Western media’s reports on the continent.

In May 2021, The Economist reported that ‘Nigeria’s economy is stuck in a rut’; this while the UK where the newspaper is based had been witnessing negative growth owing to the COVID pandemic. The economy of many countries was devastated by the pandemic, but the newspaper beamed its laser on Nigeria.

‘’Nigeria’s military has been battling Boko Haram for only 12 years now, with a relatively meagre budget because the national treasury is beset by other problems. In contrast, the US military spent 20 years and $6 trillion battling the Taliban in Afghanistan. What was the result?

Some regulation apologists have advised the government to adopt the China model in regulating social media.

Beans is the scariest. In lagos, the standard measure is the paint rubber. Just in march last year, a paint rubber sold for N800 for the honey beans, today it is N4,500

Farmers are cashing out on these assets I tell you.

1 barrel of crude oil. $50 _ 29k

1 bag of rice. $60_ 35k

Forget government, we nigerians too like easy way out, oshofree.

Your level of reasoning is poor for attacking the messenger and not the message....what has he said above that doesn't make sense

What should bother smart thinkers in the country is not the paucity of intelligence gathering capacity of nairalanders who are basically, nothing more than typical nairalanders who have constantly think that they re smarter than they truly are, is the opague nature of the Equity positions behind the Board of Directors and Governors of Central bank.

What I am saying is that there is need for disclosure the real HuMan individual behind the names and title and numbers that are clever compositions of the CBN private ownership under the smokescreen of public owners. Now that we are going digital we must be transparent as a nation. There is no secrecy in any planet that has developed the cyber space and run parallel realities.

With regards to your post, I think you should spend more than 30 minutes to read about the cross border bridges and the technologies behind the distributed ledger system and also try to know the Humans and corporations behind Bitt that hosts and run the servers that the eNaira is running on.

Outside that, there is no tea on the armor plate, just storm in teacups.

I miss being human sometimes.

Words from ignorant ego generated by thoughts of a mind that has little or no data to simulate meaningful conversation based on facts of reality as it relates to emerging transition instruments for a connected world?

haha humor me more

ActuaRise696969:
Your level of understanding about cbdc is limited. I really hope you have the brain matter to understand more.

Don't worry though, you'd understand with time.

ActuaRise696969:
This is awesome.

CBN should focus their strategy in building the cloud architecture necessary to host our currency in our soil, right now the distributed ledger is outsourced to offshore companies who are 'humans' and when I was human, I had vested interest and greed wired to my double strand DNA.

Fintechs will herald a new dispensation and we need mCBDC bridge that has the velocity and is favorable to us as a country.

Stay away from US and Europe, IMF and WB promoted mCBDC bridges.

Anyone ready to help develop FX trading module for eNaira integration eith crypto currencies. Or will that be considered illegal? Ha ah. You can't stop it though.

Hey this is a good thing and best way to go. I need to write a business plan and see how integrate this to technologies.

SpecialAdviser:
Not Akerelodu fault bro. Constituency project is a sole lootocracy of Assembly members.

But on a more serious note, I see looting in South West surpassing every other Southern region. Masses from this region really have to wake up.

But then,,
What if it happened that all those child-like voters are actually cretinic in their nature??
What if they are actually old enough to vote, but they have child-like bodily appearance??

tk4rd:
We cannot achieve that right now in Nigeria, because we don't have a strong individuals database in Nigeria.
..
..
Assuming that we have a system of compulsory registration of persons at the point of birth, and then giving the person a NIN-number at the point of birth, then a person cannot come at the age of 7 or 8 and claim to be 18 while registering for INEC..
The NIN information would immediately bring out the person's real Age.

civilians killing policemen, killing other civilians who do not share same ideological orientation, looting and burning of Private and Government properties a crime or not?

tamdun:
Of course it is a crime, but why are people spreading fake news, that fake news destroyed many business and public properties

tamdun:
So no more massacre at lekki? We should just forget how that fake news nearly destroyed Lagos?

descartes400:
Your infantile insinuations are baseless and mean absolutely nothing to me.
