If buhari wants to turn Nigeria into a production-oriented country, he should just go and learn from the Chinese.. He shouldn't be there trying to prove he has got a clue..., he hasn't and he shouldn't be desperate to reinvent the wheel.. Just copy "word for word" what the Chinese did and this country will be flying high in 20 years.. To start with, have a well planned economy! Forget all those nasty talks about how wrong a planned economy is. The Chinese economy is the fastest growing economy today and that started since the Politburo started mapping out plans on where to channel more skilled labor, more resources, more infrastructural development and more aid in their economy. You have to plan, you have to manage the plans by objectives/time, you have to inform the citizens of the opportunities being created in these areas of the economy, you have to provide skills acquisition centers for them to imbibe the skills to function optimally in these areas, you have to create solid banks to lend at cheap rates to SMEs in these areas and you have to look out for diplomatic openings to help export these finished goods to foreign lands where they are mostly needed... That is the job of a government and that's why i think those who keep following that liberal bullshyt about government having no business in business are just living in a foools paradise..

You know you are the kid here.., the question is legit; what apart from oil and related products does Nigeria export and earn forex from substantially? Answer that and stop skirting around facts. This country is by far the biggest colony of the most unproductive quantity of humans in the whole world.

Don't mind him! He thinks propaganda rather than action gets the job done.

As usual, sprinkle some irrelevant stats around while you aim jibe at me. @bold part, talk sense bros . . . So you mean oil isn't a product? I tell you, age is nothing but a number. You are irredeemable.

I know Americans are more understanding than Nigerians when it comes to patriotism especially when trillions of Dollars have been genuinely made privately by private citizens hence they would not let the great USA be put to shame like Nigerians are doing to their country because trillions of Dollars where made by public officials serving the government. Trump and Buhari both have a similar economic policy" use your comparative advantage" Buhari said "produce and buy Nigeria" Trump said " Buy America, Hire America" what was the response from Nigerians, we couldn't take the advantage of the initiative becouse those with the means got them illegally and would not invest through proxies. So we are stucked. Except we grow at this slow pace or we go back to importing everything and create a huge deficit balance of payment. Americans on the other most likely will respond to the policy by quickly investing in those areas of American needs that Trump will stop importation and fill the gap in record time to prevent the Nigerian experience. America will experience a slight inflation because of patriotism. Nigeria is suffering Hyper inflation due to unpatriotic citizens and unwilling local investors and neck deep importers who don't want to embrace change and go into local production. How do you blame a government for doing the right thing because her citizens are ether obdurate or too blind deaf and dumb to see an initiative? Buhari's government is giving no excuses. They are only dealing with a nation of wicked and unwilling citizens. Some of which have penetrated their ways into government. So the President and his government has this to deal with.

The price of dollar is simply a function of its demand and supply. FG has been the one supplying 85% of $forex. Commonsense should tell the vile amongs us that one the govt's major dollar source - oil sales - suffers our dollar supply goes down and demands further pushes dollar price upward.
Those irrelevant stats you bandied up there won't be complete without you stating our recurrent expense as of 1999.

PDP met the most patient and understanding Nigerian then with no phone, laptop(with internet) and social media at his disposal. The PDP achieved all they did at their own pace. The question is; If you take this current APC government back to 1999 would we be where we are today? The answer arguably would be NO! Nigerians in 1999 were contented with the departure of the Military and Abacha specifically. Little wonder even educated Nigerians didn't know when all these institutions were built. OBJ travelled the world with nobody raising an eyebrow. Times have changed and the PDP disappointed hitherto Patient, Naive and unsophisticated Nigerian, is now Angry, Impatient and Technologically advanced interms of info tech. You don't mess with him anymore. The APC and Buhari administration is faced with that Nigerian right now. The MONSTER the FRANKIESTEIN PDP created.

It easy for any pained soul to foam in the mouth about dollar rate of N504/$. Our system of defending the dollar rate with dollar reserve is not feasible if our dollar supply via oil sales isn't high. How much did GEJ govt earn asides oil sales?

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has denied reports that he is under pressure to resign.

Following intense speculation on the fate of President Muhammadu Buhari, rumours started flying around that northern governors had met with two former heads of state and decided to force Osinbajo to resign.

This, it was speculated, was to avoid the Goodluck Jonathan situation – where President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua died less than three years in office and his then vice-president stepped into the vacant position as stipulated in the constitution.

As a result, the north lost its turn in the presidency and power returned to the south.

This is believed to have fuelled the rumours that Osinbajo was being pressurised to resign to allow Senate President Bukola Saraki – from the north-central zone – take over in the case of a repeat of the Yar’Adua scenario.

The acting president has sternly denied the rumours.

“I am not under any pressure to resign,” he told the media in Abuja.

“I was voted for by the people of this nation, myself and Mr. President, and so the people of this nation have not asked us to resign.

“I am absolutely not under any pressure whatsoever. The truth is that there has been no pressure from any source asking me to resign.”

The American or UK system of government is the best or most accurate for Nigeria, if the nation is determine to advance. At least, Buhari will not have visited London for his medical treatment.

Yeah... Buy Naija to grow Naija my ass..

Omoakinsuyi:
Buhari should resign. Osinbajo should be made president and Tinubu will supply him with the materials and ideas that will make Nigeria work like Lagos is working
