Let their citizens chop their presidents, or perhaps, IMF could help instead of lamenting. We are not big brother of Africa for nothing. Abeg, even though I have plied through the Benin border enroute Ghana before? Is their any other land border we shared with Ghana that I am not aware of? Why are the Ghanaians crying more than the bereaved Beninese and Nigeriens? 162 Likes 9 Shares |

I have issues with alot of Buhari's (cabal) policies, however the closure of the land borders is a decision of the FG that must be applauded, I can't believe I am saying this but, Bubu, we are solidly behind you. 190 Likes 6 Shares |

There is no need to open borders. We are okay as border closed. If company need our population, they should come to Nigeria to establish their company here. We have land for them and we have man power. We don't need parasites country . what are we benefit from Benin and Niger country? 73 Likes 5 Shares |

They need to be very specific. What regions in Nigeria have this extreme poverty and high mortality rates? What states could be found in those regions? All these vague assumptions is the reason our leaders gets away with inefficiency. The other day on the news, one of them claimed #30 is all you need..and sold it to the world. That's why our former President was point blank when he said 'Call a thief a thief. Not describing it with corruption'. Those who were hurt begun the 'stealing is not corruption' mantra. But he is very right. Nigerians detest and avoid a person described as a thief far much more than they would a person described as a corrupt person. 15 Likes |

I'm opposed to this border control...but must Benin and Niger eat at our expense? By the way, why can't African governments diversify their economy? All African economies are one track minded.... 21 Likes |

IMF and busy body. As if opened border is not threatening Nigeria's economy, security and even our wellbeing sef. That's how they convinced the previous governments to make Nigerian citizens start paying money for education and health to stabilize our economy, where are we now? Border remains closed. 38 Likes
