Lol, as you are screening.... NEPA takes light .... what happens

Always thinking negative.....take your answer: you rescreen.

Tooreda:
That's the story they want to shove down your throat. Werey people. Tinubu us utterly clueless.

The man is right. If you want to hate, keep some remain.

ComradeKunle:
Obi the undisputed choice of Nigerians. We dey your back gidigba.

Obi is a boy How can a boy be a president?

Penguin2:
Change that money to dollars and you will see they are probably doing worse than they did in 2015.

Meanwhile the increase is driven by Nigerians’ blood who now have to pay more than double for the energy products that Total is selling

Yours is always to change to dollar. If you change income wouldn't you change expenditure? What is used to compare is the inflation rate. You should be talking about discounting the figures with the rate of inflation to 2015 base.

All these trader's mentality is makes you guys look at everything as what is the dollar rate.

lonecatt:
according to our ronu brothers who are defending their misfit brother the economy is ok and doing well.
the same people who supported clueless Buhari for 8years.

By contrast..... shopping malls that was not available in Aba before now are springing up everywhere. How do you balance this. Is it not the same Nigerian economy? Maybe Aba is in Cameroon.

Blackdisciple:
So what did FG said??

Go back to your English language class.

Kennitrust:
Just one thing I'm praying for


Let this coalition succeed


Let wike be put to shame


Let his master be put to shame

Surely, I will live to see the end of APC by Gods grace

Coalition will be too loose and cannot win election. Only merger of parties can. Unfortunately all the characters don't have parties that they control. Therefore no merger. PBAT remains. It's simple logic.

Namaster:
This is the DUMBEST man that ever dumbed!

He's a US Citizen with a US Passport and he's BITCHING about NOT getting a Nigerian Passport.

Absolute MADNESS!

For context, the US Passport can travel to 186 countries in the world WITHOUT Visa. The Nigerian Passport can only travel to 44, mostly African, countries WITHOUT Visa.

Owning a US Passport and still bitching about not getting a Nigerian passport is like standing in a SPRING of sparkling water and still begging for PUREWATER.

It's MADNESS!

That's for you. The man has his reasons.

AerialMapper:
Lol... Put your religious sentiment aside, be logical. Is what he said possible? Don't be a tool

That's where you miss it. Spiritual things fall outside logic. If it can be explained logically then it's not miracle. Miracles are nonsense. That's why God is God. Can a wooden stick magnet and ax head? When you come to God and faith, you leave behind your science, intellect and sense-knowledge otherwise you can't work with God.

AerialMapper:
This one thinks private jet can fly to the moon.

Just leave science alone and continue deceiving your people with religion.

You are not half a scientist as he is. Keep shut.

Fraudster Adeboye.
Very soon he will ask his sheep to contribute money to make it happen.
The greatest lie machine that ever worked on this planet earth.

And many believe him.....blacks and white, the highly literate and intelligent all over the world. You are here with one kabukabu phone typing rubbish. Mtchee

fasho01:
Which of your 'predictions' have come to pass so far sir

Keep quiet small boy. You don't understand things of the spirit. Do you want me to tell all that has come to pass this year even in my family?

E don happen to loose men.

They don see finish and they have to do finish.

Letmecum:
Oga no body scam you. At list you landed at UK. You should hustle your way na. Them carry you go UK Dem go still find work for you.

How will he get work permit? Even menial jobs they will still ask for work permit.

SmartPolician:
JP Morgan just wants cash out by offering dollar loans to multinational companies. If not, what would an American bank be doing in Nigeria? The GDP of California alone is bigger than that of the entire African continent.

What happened to Citibank that has been in Nigeria for some years?

ClearFlair:
Indebtedness is not what matters, the growth rate of the GDP and the quality of life of the citizens are the important factors. If the loans are well utilized, they can be debt-free before countries that are not even on the top 10 list

The narrative is changing. If we were number one on that list it would have been another narrative. Nigerians eeh.

mrvitalis:
One thing I have always said is if I ever decide to be governor or president Economics would be made compulsory in all schools from SS1 to university 200 level...

Volume of debt or size of debt is not an issue
Ability to repay is the issue

Someone can owe 2 million and be worse than someone who owe 10 billion

In nigeria the issue we talk about is our revenue to debt servicing is too high..

We need to increase revenue, sadly the only way to do that is to borrow more but use it for what would generate revenue or ability to pay back the loan

So borrowing and using it to build road, bridge, rails, and the reat feel good projects is foolishness... Very big foolishness

And that's what APC have been doing since

How will your economy run efficiently without good infrastructure? Provision of infrastructure and enabling environment is the function of government but building industries and commercial entities is private sector function.

The beauty of Jagaban is that he does his thing quietly without noise. Nobody ever knew that he was cooking this at the background. Fired the board the same day, appointed a replacement the same day.

When everyone was shouting fire Mele, fire Mele he ignored all. When everyone thought that it was no longer possible he struck. Strategic leader. Watch out for a private sector oriented NNPCL.

AngelicDamsel:
It baffles me how some people are saying "the female staff will want to nack the driver because they watched him having sex"


How do you guys reason?
Olosho don scatter una mindset

It's true na. Most of the female watching must have soiled their pants with holy water.

bigpicture001:
What budget deficit means is this...

You plan your earnings, u plan your expenses... As the year goes on... You achieve your earnings, but your expenses is now so larger than what u plan... Now the expenses is bigger than your originally planned expenses... And then u needed to borrow to make up your activities....

Dat difference between your originally planned expenses and your real expenses is the deficit. ... So when the expenses difference is large , we say we have large deficit, when it is low we say we have low deficit.. and when your planned expenses is equal to ur planned revenue... The we say the budget is balanced ..

So in this case.. tinubu's govt is reckless with expenses... They hardly stick to the books...

I agree with all your explanations but a deficit does not come only through reckless expenditure. At budgeting point if you want to expand your economy particularly where your income is low you will deliberately budget more expenditure than your income and borrow to fill the gap. All experts have been shouting that one major problem of the Nigerian economy is low income. That's why this regime is focused on expanding our income base. The ordinary persons will not understand this.

Goldeno:
That jagons, I know you are not an economics but before you enter discussions you don't know at least do your research.

As a bonus for you, look into GNP and why it became GDP, hopefully you can find your way.

Discussions that I don't know..... hahaha. According to you of course I'm not an "economics" It is called economist. I will not reveal my profession because this is a faceless forum. I repeat that what you said were issues of inflation and they don't have anything to do with GDP.

ivandragon:
Same bat that stood against the reforms when they were being implemented in far more humane manner?

Same bat that said fx at N217 to $1 was too high?

Same bat that said pms price at N145 was too high?

Anyway, some people will always find a way to justify incompetence.

What you see in government is different from what you see outside government. The man on the saddle if he has balls should carry out what he believes is right. When he said all these that you mentioned did he stop the man on the saddle from carrying out his reforms if he is sure of what he wanted to do.

Obi and Atiku have been opposing PBAT policies but it didn't stop him from carrying out his reforms. That's the hallmark of a great leader. Do what you believe in no matter the nay Sayers.

ivandragon:
What is the glory or pride in being a leader when your main legacy is impoverishing the people you are meant to lead?

How can someone who lied and used deceit to get power be worthy of praise?

How can someone with a dubious history shrouded in mystery that involved drug dealing and lies be a role model?

How can someone who isulates himself from the devastating consequences of his rule while telling those he rules over to endure, be a good leader?

At the national level, bat is a terrible leader.

You are suffering today because what PBAT did in two years past regimes ought to have done them when the economy was flourishing and the pains would have been much less but they lacked guts both civilian and military because of the possible backlash. PBAT dared.

Enwhen:
False prophet everywhere


Make God keep this man to find his voice after APC govt, walahi we go burn all the redeem churches in Nigeria

Joking.....try and you will face the strength of RCCG physically and spiritually. You don't know how powerful this church is.

Goldeno:

Well GDP is not a sign of better well being, it just a measure of how much people are willing to pay for things.
So the more expensive things get the higher the GDP.
It doesn't reflect the well being of the society.

Say for example you use to buy 3 oranges for N50 and now its N100, then the GDP grows.

Once opon a tin in your village/community when are stressed you can take walk to the river/beach but now a rich man has Boughy and fenced the place so you have to pay, the GDP increases.

GDP increase in the matter of fact means reduced comfort for the people.
Because it means you're paying for things you normally don't pay for and paying more for things you used to pay for.

GDP is a measure of the productivity of an economy. What all that you pointed out here meant is inflation rate. Sometimes people should hide ignorance in faceless forums.

Bendeco02:
Peter Obi have bad mouth o

Forget, the only opposition APC sees now is Peter Obi.

So in Nigeria opposition means condemn everything that the government has done. Don't point at anything positive. Don't suggest or contribution ideas. Paint a picture of die-hard enemies. This is the Nigerian definition of opposition politics.

Clobisman:
If you read the last part of my comment then you shouldn't write about unclothedness. You as a person how many clothes did you buy last year? You might claim that you bought a lot but if you can sincerely ask upto 10 average people around you probably less than half of them really changed there wardrobes last year

Must people change their wardrobes every year? Just a little addition in a year is enough except you are a fashion freak. We shouldn't over paint the economy very negative in every conversation.

arewafederation:
It means Nigerians can't afford second hand clothes anymore...

Nay......imports are expensive which is positive for the local industries. Local tailors and textile makers are making more money. This is positive for government policies. Don't bring hatred. This is economics.

Clobisman:
Kenya overtook nigeria because most nigerians can't even afford to buy the second hand clothes, infact the primary need of more than half of nigeria population is how to eat atleast a meal for a day and not about clothes as long as there are old clothes he can wash and wear.

So Nigerians eat and go naked? Kenyans have a better standard of living and they opt for used clothes? Review your comment and humbly ask us to tell you what caused the drop for Nigeria. In fact it's positive.

Mariangeles:
In summary, this is how life without woman is -- empty.

What is the name of Obi's party? I want to check something.
