The man is right. Nothing is wrong with the Nigerian economy, rather we are paying back ALL the free petrol and dollar we received from the government since 1960. The only thing is that both petrol and dollar subsidy shouldn't have been removed at the same time. But then, there's no right time to do it. Tinubu like the Messiah (the Satan of book of Genesis) won't be appropriated, though he've solved a major problem for Nigeria. But the future generation would benefit from it. The only thing holding us back now is corruption and lack of scientific know-how to begin to locally produce the things we import. 2 Likes |

crossfm: It is the situation because people are greedy. The policies can stimulate local production but greed has entered. You could but onsorted local rice for 38k in Kaduna in December 2023 what has changed between three months. People mopped up the produce to store in anticipation of hiking it. 1 Like |

musicwriter: There is no “lack of scientific know-how” to do anything in Nigeria. Nigeria has the sharpest minds in the world. Brilliant minds in every sphere. All we need to do is sort out the power issue, and you will see Nigerians have the know-how to be as innovative as Japan and China. 2 Likes |

Tellmeastory:I wonder why people are not questioning the governors.for billions of their FAAC. What did they do with it. Fed govt is not responsible for the state. Nigerans just focused on the federal alone Ask your governor what is he doing with the.money fed govt gave to them.obi.and his myopic plus Arise will never ask that question |

musicwriter:Bro there are some people that doesn't want Nigeria to survive You see those people that benefited from.the subsidy are the ones fighting back. They are using all.machinery to pull the subsidy back. Plus Nigerians speaking evil of our own country everyday. The Western world speaks good about Nigerians been hardworking I. All sectors abroad ..I have traveled far and wide with business home.and abroad. I know if Nigerians should resist the people that want the subsidy back we would achieve great things |

Who did you people blame during GEJ admin? Tribalism has destroyed this country. You people now blame ordinary Nigerians for the mess tinubu economic policy put us into but you people protested and blamed GEJ for the same offence during his tenure. What a shame!!! Twy: |

If you didn't know, better know it now that a leader leads while the followers follows. People rejoices when d righteous is in authority but people gnash their teeth when the wicked is in authority. Retailers actions are based on what they see from the govt in power. Govt body languages maters. 2ndly retailers jacked up their prices bcs of government policy. They don't just jack up their prices bro. Tinubu first removed subsidy and fuel became expensive. Almost the same time he floated the naira. U expect retailers to sell without making any profit? U ppl shld stop shifting blames absolving Tinubu. He caused all these!!!! epainos: |
Re: Hardship: Nigerian Economy Not In Mess – Ex-British Council Director, Roberts by epainos: 5:50am On Mar 06 |
cjfavour: Lol...People will die in poverty. A righteous leader will make Nigeria better in a nation with senators and house reps. Keep quoting a verse in the Bible that was written 2,000 years before Christ came. See....hunger will dance azonto on your head. When that portion was written, did the King have to get permission from about 100 chiefs and other district heads? If you expect to say Peter Obi will repair Naija....sorry...my first post is for you. See...that subsidy you want them to return so that everything will be ok temporarily which Buhari did for 8 years and killed us finally was what your fathers and grandfathers kept demanding. This same portion you are quoting is what they quoted. I mentioned illiteracy, you don't understand the reason I mentioned it. You are an example. You are illiterate cos if you are not, at this point, you will know that the only thing to do is to remove these subsidies. The methodology of removing it may be different for individuals but subjected to approval from over 200 people. So, how will an individual just make Nigeria great? If illiteracy does not apply to you, you will know that we must pay back the debts we have been acquiring since the 1960s via subsidies. Those people we are borrowing from are already saying they cannot give us again. If China had not improved its economy and been able to borrow nations' money, do you think Buhari would survive it? Dey play. Go bring the main righteous man...go bring Pastor Adeboye Kumuyi, or whoever you see as a real righteous, with the present Nigerian condition, we must suffer a bit. The next issue is if our suffering worth it? Cos they are still stealing. It is worth it if they aren't. So, as righteous as Buhari claims to be, did they not steal under him? Dey play. In a nation, the king has to take permission from his subjects. Only a military regime may be fit and can be a king who can do what you are saying. Has any military leader done so? Lol. Listen, that verse in the Bible is applicable when God himself chooses the leader. That is a righteous man who leads. In a nation you have elections is where you want to choose a righteous leader..... Dey play. See...you better use your brain to interpret well what you read before you come out to the public to say rubbish. Neither is God in democracy or military rule. Know this and have peace. God is in theocracy. Go and check the meaning of what I wrote. And that system expired before Jesus came to this world. I am writing from a Biblical perspective. And when Jesus was going, he did not say he was going to save nations....but said he would save people. So, God operates in the body of Christ which is now the church. Know this and have peace. This is why all those pastors predicting elections outcomes are always saying rubbish. I am not a Jehovah Witness' and I don't agree with their doctrines, but I agree with them in this regard cos God will not participate in elections. If you like cry to God with all your strength, he is a theocracy God. Get wisdom and apply it to what you read in your Bible. And stop talking rubbish everywhere. Hunger will dance azonto on your head if you expect a leader to fix Naija's problems. Since God is not in the system the whole world is using now (it is why democracy is failing also), we must make corrections that can still make it better rather the state it is now. Yes, it is imperfect, but we can still improve on it. And one man cannot do it because the system does not make a man make the decisions alone. These things that can make it a bit ok are what I have highlighted. But you want an individual to do it while the system does not permit it. Dey play. A beg, you educate yourself first. I won't reply you again cos it is not worth saying the same thing to a man who isn't educated in the subject of discussion. Good luck in finding that single man that will make Nigeria better. If you want to know what you can do to not die of hunger in this present world cos everything is collapsing everywhere (a sign that theocracy is the way), check my thread. Get knowledge, get any of those skills, and be financially free for the rest of your life even Nigeria is destroyed more than this. The world economy only favors less than 5% and you can be among them. No single man will make life easy for you. You will be the one who will make life easy for yourself no matter where you are born or live. Good luck! |
