How Does The PDP Or APC Intend To Fix Our Economy? by Nobody: 10:23am On Jan 26, 2015 |
I just read an interesting article by Prof Charles Soludo and I began to think deeply. Neither the PDP nor the APC have told us in clear terms, with figures attached, how they intend to fix our economy. With the recent fall in price of crude oil and devaluation of the Naira, what is the way forward Nigeria? I am asking this question like a Nigerian now without any connections to any political party. Please this is not a thread for shouting GEJ till 2019 or Sai Buhari! We need facts and figures on how the economy of Nigeria will be managed in the coming months. God bless Nigeria. |

While Jonathan is busy searching for certificate he knows exist, looking for phone numbers and preparing for marathon with his opponents, Buhari have been busy outlining his plans for Nigeria. On Economy: - Diversifying the economy by exploring and boosting other sources of revenue for the government. - Investing and developing other sectors like Technology, Agriculture, Mining, etc to boost revenue. - Curtail Corruption in the system to help prevent funds that are blatantly looted by government officials and re-invest them in capital projects. - Make funds available to new and existing small-scale businesses in order to empower Nigerians to grow economically. - Review all existing Government economic policies to streamline them for better implementation. - Open up mining exploration across Nigeria for job opportunities. - Invest in Education and Healthcare delivery as a long term effort for Human Capital Development. These and many more. You can read more at www.thisisbuhari.com and get updates on https://twitter.com/ThisIsBuhari 1 Like |

Buhari told us already: He will dash N5,000 to 25 million unemployed people, which is N1.5 trillion in 12 months and equals 1/3rd of the 2014 budget. He would rather create eternally dependent almajiris and area boys rather than provide enabling environment that adequately generates employments so people can earn a living in DIGNITY! As it was with his military DICTATOR regime of two years the pensioner has nothing on managing the economy beyond IMPORTING cheap & cheerful basic items like rice, milk, sugar, vegetable oil etc that killed our farms & factories resulting in massive unemployment. The systematically scientific duo fo Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and Arch. Namadi Sambo have been reviving the factories and agribusinesses that have overtaken the old style farms due to agro-industrial policies of the technocrat-filled cabinet of this federal administration. Jobs are being created again by private sector investors under a stable economic policy for progressive growth. Which reasonable Nigerian wouldn't want this to continue 4 Likes 1 Share |

Buhari belongs to the museum but I guess too many people are glued to the word ''change'' that they hardly notice how backward and achaic the flag bearer of that change is. voting in a Buhari will set this country ablaze. 2 Likes |

EUROBOMBER: 1. Cut down the cost of running government. Buhari has already promised to work with the National Assembly to review the earnings political office holders across board. Currently over 80% of the budget go in for salaries while only about 20% is left for capital projects and development. 2. Buy diversifying the economy, government can earn better revenue to develop Nigeria. 3. Buhari also has promised devolution of power so that States can have power and control oven internally generated revenue. This will encourage healthy competition among State to generate additional revenue. Remember that the Tax Code will be uniform so that some State Government will not be exploiting the masses. A vote for Jonathan is a continuation of his failed economic policies that have not impacted positively on the masses. While a vote for Buhari is a strong statement that we want change and set of new competent hands to take progressive measures that will benefit every Nigerian (rich or poor). Vote for Change, vote APC. 1 Like |

EUROBOMBER: There is a serious communication gap in the federal administration that needs urgent correction. Nevertheless be rest assured that many real beneficiaries of the laudable initiatives for steady progress "feel" the results of the ONGOING transformation. The key issue in next month's election is what can the alternative offer to Jonathan's steady progress. The answer is nothing better only something WORSE based on the records of their flag bearer and even the governor who could have been their "best" candidate. Vote wisely!!! 2 Likes 1 Share |

anonimi: Here is Soludo's response to the bold: "The parallels with the Shagari regime are troubling. First, at the time of oil boom, Nigeria again went on a consumption spree such that the budgets of the last five years can best be described as ‘consumption budgets’, with new borrowing by the federal government exceeding the actual expenditure on critical infrastructure. |

anonimi: The oil boom he is talking about is when price of oil per barrel was around and above $100. Instead of Jonathan saving more than his predecessors, he was squandering what was in the reserve, eating up the massive income and also borrowed even more than the previous regimes. Also poverty rate increased in the mist of plenty. That is reason why immediately there is a decline, Jonathan is having problem funding budget, paying salary, etc. The summery is that Jonathan has mismanaged the economy - So why then should we reelect such incompetent individual to preside over Nigeria especially when we are on the brink of economic collapse because of his inefficiencies? Nigerians need Buhari - a man who will Not tell us that stealing billions and trillions is not corruption. Vote for Change. |
