Why Can't Nigerian Billionaires Help The Poor Citizens? by DikSin(m): 10:20am On Dec 31, 2023
I am not an economist but I believe that if all Nigerian billionaires (athletes, clergy, and entertainers) give out 200m each to build roads, hospitals, and shelter. The country will move forward in no time.

Just me thinking out loud

Good!

But the problem is that the level of patriotism is very very low like 1%

So it won't happen, they would rather go dump their funds in already advanced countries

So what will the government be doing?
Re: Why Can't Nigerian Billionaires Help The Poor Citizens? by Ireportlive: 10:58am On Dec 31, 2023
Calculating total infrastructure deficit of Nigeria , Umahi puts it at 40 trillion Naira, with this figure we will have the best road and rail network, best housing and hospitals and fix Electricity


Now the problem with you idea is most Billionaires don't even have 1 billion in liquidity, what they have are assets worth their billions

Look, I'm not trying to put the whole problem of the country on the said billionaires, all I'm saying is they should assist by doing something meaningful for the poor citizens. Building a Plaza with 40% low renting will go a long way instead of throwing money in the air or picking out one individual/family for trends.

Low-cost shopping plazas will reduce the hazards attached to roadside trading and encourage a hustling spirit in our people

Please take a back seat while the real billionaires contribute to the topic at hand.


It's people like you that I'm asking the billionaires to help but here you are attacking my efforts at minimising your suffer head lifestyle.

@ Bolded: your suffer no go end and you no go make am for this life wey you come because of your wicked and bitter mindset.

Heaven help those who help themselves.
I'm no billionaire, but no billionaire in Nigeria owes me a dime. If I want to hold people responsible for my predicament I turn to the government.
Peace.

You are not reffering to billionaires in Nigeria but elsewhere.

The ones here that got theirs through embezzlement of public funds have theirs stuffed in cash under their underground bunkers.

Another 8billion dollars loan requested via senate will soon be diverted and looted again in raw cash.

Had it been that they would leave it in the bank, it would have helped our country numerous FX demands
