Thunder fire Jonathan abeg. The situation would be worse if he was the President. Just imagine continous Looting added to drop in Oil price that affected our Naira...I'm sure by now Naira would be 2000 to 1 dollar 1 Like |

macfarland: The truth is, Until True Federalism is implemented, Nigeria won't be able to increase the different types of exportable products she can exchange for dollar. Therefore, Buhari should send a bill to the National Assembly urging his Northern colleagues to join their Southern Colleagues to enthrone true federalism through the law. 1 Like |

ipledge10:. You are displaying your insincerity. Pls answer these questions sincerely. Did the problem suddenly become a global one under buhari? Did the problem not start under GEJ but was EXPERTLY and INTELLIGENTLY managed? Was buhari and his co-travellers not aware of the existence of the problems before promising to make Naira of equal value to the dollar? Was it not because Jonathan was accused of non-performance that he was forced out of office and Buhari foisted because he claimed to have solutions to the identified problems, why the blaming of GEJ for the past 9 months?. Pls address the issues squarely. 3 Likes |

Sunnybobo3:thank you. This is the same question i have been asking. Did they not know the price of oil was going down?did they not know that the past government looted our money? Did they not know that our economy was not diversified ? Yet they went ahead and promised heaven and earth. Yet some people will defend a government that is making life hard for its citizens. If things can go from bad to worse in just 9months then let it be known that buhari has failed Nigeria and Nigerians. I rest my case 3 Likes |

GEJ was not a saint neither were his ministers Things were really bad, yes.. AGREED But we never had it so baaaaddd! This administration is Nigeria's costliest blunder Because it is so glaring the president and his 'host of saints and angels' are clueless about what to do to revive the comatose economy I miss the 'corruption-ridden' era of GEJ when our economy was NOT GOOD but not DYING either A 'corrupt' administration where our rights as citizens were guaranteed and we never got visited by DSS for insulting the president (and insulting the president was the hobby of so many e-zombies here and these same zombies go apeshit when we dish the same to their 'messiah ".. Bunch of hypocrites!) I miss GEJ, I swear.. But thankfully, he is drinking his ' ogogoro' in peace in Otueke 2 Likes 2 Shares |

ipledge10: Wrong wrong wrong. Between 2014 and May 2015 Oil had infact dropped from over $120 to about $40, yet the value of the Niara during that time remained relatively stable. GEJ had a top class economic team in place and they were quietly able to weather the storm without the Niara taking a hit. The big drop in the currency has all taken place in the last few months. So please answer me this, how come when oil fell from $130 to £50 the Niara did not crash, yet now it's fallen from $50 to $30 we have a crash?? You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all the people all of the time, one day Nigerians will come to realize that Ngozi and her team were THE BEST ECONOMIC MANAGERS Nigeria has ever had bare none. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

ajebuter: What so many people miss is that while GEJ govts was of course corrupt (BTW EVERY SINGLE GOVT IN OUR HISTORY HAS BEEN CORRUPT) he did manage to have some very good people in key positions. Ngozi, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina and Ms. Arunma Oteh have gone on to get top international appointments. These people among others quietly worked in the background to help keep things stable while the corruption was going on. Zombies have been insulting Ngozi, yet she kept the economy stable during the steepest part of the oil price crash. The current Finance minister seems to be completely clueless. For goodness sake the woman was talking about how she was going to go to the bond market to borrow money to finance the budget of yams!! How bad do things have to get before Buhari understands we are in an economic emergency 3 Likes 2 Shares |

ipledge10: Don't mind them. The same GEJ that got us where we are today? There is a big difference between an inherently inept government doing badly in prosperous times , i.e the GEJ government, and a competent government unable to deliver maximum economic impact because of very difficult overarching global economic realities beyond its control and the 'impotence' bestowed upon it by the highly inept and grossly corrupt PDP rule of 16 years - most especially that of GEJ who virtually earned more money than all others combined courtesy of oil selling for more than $100.00 per barrel for most of the years GEJ was President. We are not pragmatic in Nigeria and many Nigerians do not understand what it means to think critically. Read the article below from 2014 , with comment from neutral expert analysts who are not sentimental or impractical as the average miracle-seeking Nigerian, to note that anyone seeking for Nigeria to be economically prosperous today is a joker. The article bleakly highlights the fact that we were in serious trouble, when oil was selling at $68.00 per barrel, and that the Naira will keep failing in value. The article also warned that no quick recovery should be expected because of the many 'booby traps' we myopically set for ourselves via failing to diversify the economy away from oil, embracing corruption rather than developing critical infrastructure like power and transport, refusing to see the need to prioritise the development of the SME sector that had been allowed to become moribund and blatantly ignoring the need to save for the 'rainy day' when oil sold for over $100.00 per barrel for a long time. GEJ some myopic Nigerians are asking for is guilty of all of the above far more than any other President we have had since 1999. Which reasonable person would think the above issues are problems that can be resolved in the 9 months Buhari has been President when the highly educated, experienced and effective experts below warned us not to expect any quick recovery at a time Nigeria was much, much better off than it is today? The reality, for those who do not kid themselves, is that most Nigerians are not reasonable or realistic. The solutions that will aid and sustain our recovery, so we are never in this position again, can only bear results in the long term if adhered to holistically and religiously as I expect Buhari to do. For example, the development of our solid minerals sector , the growth of the agricultural sector and the deliverance of constant and adequate power supply that will help us diversify our economy will not be delivered in a few days, months or even a year !!! Bear in mind also that the money to invest in those sectors is simply not available today in a period we are even struggling to service recurrent expenditure such as salaries for government workers !!!! There is nothing, I repeat nothing, we can do today to make current Nigeria economically prosperous overnight. Anyone who truly understands the problem of Nigeria, and is realistic about what can be done to defeat these problems and the time frame to deliver the lasting solutions required, will know Buhari and Osinbajo remain capable of leading us forward. Some Nigerians are simply expecting water from a stone in defiance of logic. Some of us are used to this because we know our people to understand how unreasonable and unrealistic Nigerians are in comparison to others. If I ask these GEJ lovers to make a convincing argument for what can improve Nigeria today they would be unable to do so because we are a mono-economy now experiencing every crippling aspect of an economic downturn due to how our main expert and foreign currency source, i.e crude oil, has lost over 70% of its value and is unable to sustain us because we allowed ourselves to be almost 100% dependent on it ? As you point out, and as the article below also asserts, others oil-dependent economies, far better prepared , more organised and more prosperous than us are struggling yet some expect miracle from a nation that burnt all the bridges it should now be crossing to get to the economic recovery it needs. http://www.wsj.com/articles/nigerias-tumbling-currency-a-victim-of-falling-oil-prices-1417535209 Nigeria’s Tumbling Currency a Victim of Falling Oil Prices |
