Uhmm.

Improving Country since 1960, Just look at China, as of 1960s we were in d economic phase with China who is now competing with USA as world power.


We have large population n natural resources like China but our only achievement is making one person richer than China as a country.

Nigeria, Will never improve stop misleading the already misleaded n deluded failure supporters

Mumu, does China share the same history and challenges as Nigeria? You think development is by comparison? Every nation has its unique issues which it can only surmount in its own time, at its own pace, based on its own unique circumstances.

what you said is just an obvious reason why I should av stopped at calling you a fool but I just have to give you a little lesson.


we have Comparative politics. deluded ppl like you r our problem

It doesn't matter what we think. The fact is Nigeria is growing under pmb. The control of the economy is gradually shifting to the poor unlike before where one man blocks and does all things. Those of u wailing sit there and continue wailing while the serious minded ones make their money. My people are becoming millionaire from farming. Local shoes and bags manufacturers are making their money. What use to be wasted effort is now rewarding. ..... thank God for giving us pmb.. u are indeed God's sent

Nigeria has moved up 24 places to 145th in the World Bank’s ‘Doing Business’ report published today, and for the first time the country is recognized as one of the top 10 most improved economies in the world.

This was made known in a statement issued by the Vice President's office on Tuesday in Abuja.

The World Bank Doing Business project provides objective measures of business regulations and their enforcement across 190 economies worldwide.

Reacting to the development, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, said “I welcome Nigeria’s improved performance. We are one of the top ten reforming economies in the world in 2017. After a decade-long decline in Nigeria’s rankings, last year the Government recorded a modest increase.

This year, Mr President set us an ambitious target of moving up twenty places in the rankings – I am delighted that we have exceeded his goal.

“Improving the business environment is at the heart of the Buhari Administration’s reform agenda. We are reinforcing our economic turnaround by a vigorous and active implementation of the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP) so businesses operating in Nigeria can thrive and be competitive globally.

“For the first time, coordinated efforts across various levels of governments have been undertaken to make it easier to do business in Nigeria. I commend all stakeholders who worked with us to achieve this significant result, particularly the National Assembly, Lagos and Kano State Governments, and the private sector.”

The World Bank highlighted five reforms making it easier to do business in Kano and Lagos, the two cities covered by the report in Nigeria over the course of last year:

1. Starting a Business,
2. Dealing with Construction Permits
3. Registering Property
4. Getting Credit, and
5. Paying Taxes.

In the area of company registration, the Corporate Affairs Commission has moved to offer online registration and introduced new features such as electronic stamping of registration documents. Thus, entrepreneurs have been able to register their businesses much faster, within 24-48 hours, thereby saving cost and time

Getting construction permits and registering property in both Lagos and Kano States have become more transparent and easier for businesses with the online publication of all relevant regulations, fee schedules and pre-application requirements online.

Getting access to credit is now easier and Nigeria is placed 6th in the world on this indicator. The Government recorded a significant success by collaborating with the National Assembly to pass two new Acts, the Secured Transactions in Movable Assets Act 2017 and the Credit Reporting Act 2017, thereby strengthening the legal framework for access to credit for SMEs across the country – an important requirement for the success of SMEs.

Finally, it has become easier to pay taxes in Nigeria because taxpayers can file tax returns at the nearest Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) office, and electronic payment and filing are gradually gaining acceptance.

sanpipita:


Haha what is there to be pain about, continue hoping against hope, Nigeria is gone under buhari.

You are really pained. Just admit it.

Most people who express their Anger on Nairaland,unhappy about good news won't know there has been so many improvements on the ease of doing business

gawu1:

You are really pained. Just admit it.

Pls can you tell me what exactly is there to be pained about, this is a nation that only borrows money to service debts and salaries, where are th the future is very bleaked for those know and you are talking about being pained or not, 57 years old nationhood and nothing to be proud and some of you still want to be foolish.

GavelSlam:


It's your own destiny that is a lost cause not Nigeria.

Why won't you be tired when I'm providing documented evidence while all you are doing is yapping about.

You don't know what a documented evidence is, using a news report can't pass as a documented evidence its no data, I can do a news report and say whatever I want, bring a data to back up what you say and stop being foolish.

That's why you are pained. You think and reason like a pained idiot who sees and view everything with negativity lens.
I guess you are not one of those Ipob pigs, least you should have sense of commendation ones you see acts worthy of commendation.
Appraise yourself as a person; how old are you and what have you achieved at your age so far. Hence, can you see how proudly foolish you are for those comments you made?

i

Getting credit is easier now?
I honestly dont know what these APC people are smoking.

Even, in the bussinessnews link that you posted, this is what it says:

And I said he left it at 147, was he the one who took it down to 169 before the current ranking of 145?

147 was in 2013. Then it went up to 170 in 2014. Now there is a downward trajectory...
