Only the intellectually deficient can think the impact of reforms that have been overdue for decades will be seen in a year.


If it were that easy previous governments would have embarked on it. It’s not like they did’t know the problems and the solutions to the problems.

If other government not supported by you and your likes had involved in this project, you would not have written this stuff here.

Nigerians are now speaking up against useless candidates as President.
Tinubu supporters are irritating, they claim that since Buhari was Clueless, Tinubu’s incompetence and stupidity should also be tolerated also.
The era of Olodos parading themselves as presidential candidates should be over now.
You don't come to Aso Rock villa just to occupy space.

Before you resolve to attacking me please kindly show me what you were writing here in 2014 during PDP's government let's see how patriotic you have always been.

As everyday passes, I become more skeptical about any rebound of the economy. The level of poverty is unbearable and income is shrinking fast. Time will come when some middle class people would be unable to pay rent and the default rate will spike. The current food and groceries inflation is worrisome and the challenges to the economy are becoming even more challenging. I don't know if any of the other presidential candidates would have done anything differently . Truly, Buhari finished this economy and he laid the foundation for the current mess we are seeing. My problem with the current government is profligacy and the opaque nature in award of contracts and management of public finances, even in the midst of overwhelming poverty.

What reforms
You call this kalokalo economics reforms?

The guy gambled and he failed woefully, right now he is confused and clueless

I dont know what some fo you smoke to expect anything out of what this fake accountant seems to be doing. Subsidy is back and the devaluation they thought will bounce back to 700 in few months has remained at 1500ish. They are confused and lost now

God bless your deep assessment of things in Nigeria.
Since Independence,we have been living on borrowed time:
• On Food Productions - where are the -Groundnuts Pyramids of the North?
- where are the Cocoa Production of the Southwest - that Chief Obafemi Awolowo was able to build Cocoa House, Ibadan?
- where is the Pain Production Oil Production of the South - South?
• What happens to the Refineries - that even Obasanjo came 2nd Term,none was working,yet the the Nigerian govt was Exporting Crude and Importing Refined Fuels!
Are we jazzed?

I don’t need the apologies of a m0ron. I made a time tested statement that basically translates into it is easier to destroy than to fix and that the deeper the damage the harder the repair and immediately you come in from a partisan angle. This is the real problem with Nigeria…….Nigerians themselves!!!!

Is the statement I made right or wrong? You know it is right and you are the one who is a hypocrite which is why you ignored the substance and resorted to bringing the matter into the partisan or tribal or religious realm.


That’s what you people do and that’s why Nigeria will never make it. Again the problem with Nigeria are Nigerians!

And your own statements are meaningless because you have failed to acknowledge, or maybe just conveniently forgotten that the past governments that tried to implement said policies were thwarted by your own Messiah. But Right-thinking Nigerians haven't.

So you, sir, should change your own name to 'blind-as-BAT apologist'

Frigging hypocrites. Sheesh...

I'm a hypocrite because I told you that YOU WOULDN'T HAVE MADE THIS STATEMENT IF PDP WAS HANDLING THIS REFORMING OF THE ECONOMY AND WE ARE SUFFERING LIKE THIS?

WHEN SUBSIDY WAS REMOVED IN 2012 YOU AND YOUR LIKES CAMPAIGNED AGAINST IT AS IF YOU WILL DIE.

BUT YOU WANT US TO UNDERSTAND NOW.

😆 Just look at you pontificating. You guys never cease to amaze 😂.

Oh so now it is right because your rent-seeker-in-chief is the one doing it.

But it was wrong when someone else tried to do it more than a decade ago, and the system would long have stabilized by now.

And you call someone else a nincompoop? Really? 😂 😂
Re: Economic Revamp Without Impact - Punch Editorial by wallrichy: 12:12pm On Jul 01
You said it all. How do you plan for people you don't know? Corruption, Insecurity, Bad Leadership, Unpleasant business environment, lack of adequate Infrastructures, Lack of Electricity, etc.........These wahalas are too much on the neck of just one country. If Nigeria is a private company, I believe, or rather, let's say Nigeria is my company with all these troubles. I would have dissolved the company many years ago and opened departments in all our comparative advantage areas. I would not continue wasting money on growing the company again. Put up departments and get HODs responsible for your members. All the Units will be self-dependent and always ready to give accounts of your departments' tasks after a definite and mutually acceptable time. You fail in your department by not meeting up to target, you get fired and get debriefed, by investigation, etc........

I empathise with the President. This job must be very tough, and a lot tougher than he knew before he hot into office to "hit the ground running from Day 1".

I however know that NO JUPITER can turn Nigeria around as Punch seems to be suggesting, as against waiting "forever" in 12 months.

We are talking about a country with such porous borders, no acceptable census figures, no dependable database of ALL citizens. How do you effectively plan for a population that YOU DO NOT KNOW?

That's the first problem. We must be realistic in our expectations. We are in a mess, but we are still the hope of SubSaharan Africa. Let's give some more time, and if it doesn't work, we vote in ideals at the next elections, regardless of political party.

To do that, to have an effective electioneering system, we need citizens data. It is why I am worried about Minister Bosun Tijani's seeming silence in office. If Bosun cannot fix this data problem, so much so that his own data is sold on the dark web for 100naira, then we are in problems of such monumental proportions than what we perceive!

Nigeria is in for a long ride
Suicide bombing has started again in borno. The elite in Nigeria are only concern about their personal interest but the endemic primordial sentiment will never allow a common man to make good choices..
The metropoles don't make choices for delicate position like presidency's as a joke because when there's a mistake,it will backfire and the people will suffer.
Nigerian needs orientation on what good governance is all about, because w even the political leaders still social amenities i.e roads, flyover, decapitated hospitals used for campaign as an achievement
We need orientation both the leaders and the led

What a joke!

One of the things I hate most is the dishonest move of government giving 'palliative' to the masses.

One wonders how these policies come about though.

Out of the blues, you just decide to float the Naira as a solution to a problem the country is facing.

Then suddenly the struggling man who had $3000 equivalent in his account suddenly wakes up to realise he now has 1000. Three times poorer.

When you add that to the hyper inflationary effect triggered by the ghetto style removal of subsidies, everyone is actually about five to six times poorer. Everyone with 100 naira last year has only about N20 naira of the value of same now.
