Regarding what PMB is saying about how broke Nigeria is, I TOTALLY SUPPORT it. We are broke. We do not need to keep up appearances when our economy is disappearing. Do we still have an economy or just a market for foreign economies? If you are in a pit that you want to come out of, you must stop digging! Except you are making money from the depth of that pit you are digging. That is exactly why it's hard to assist some people in Nigeria.

One lady met me after an event the other day and told me of how she needs to complete her school fees of 185k. She only has 78k. I nearly gave it a thought then she asked for an #alibabaandi. And brings out an #iphone6splus. I guess that's what many people are expecting PMB to do.

Give the outside world we are OK look. No sir. Tell them of the potentials here. Tell them things have been mismanaged. Tell them that we are dealing with the thing that brought us here in the first place. CORRUPTION. Let the world know that they all had a hand in the condition we are in. Because our stolen monies have developed their real estate sectors & boosted the liquidity of their banks. Our stolen monies continued to boost their fashion industry. Let them know that our industries all died because of corruption.

And that they did nothing to help fight it. Tell them they welcomed the monies stolen with a bowl! And then sent us grants after making profits from same. PMB should not cover anything up! Tell them that whoever buys stolen crude from Nigerian vessels will be named and shamed! Tell them we are broke. Shout it. Tell them that in spite of that, we have natural resources and untapped potentials. We have NOLLYWOOD. We have numbers. Land. Waterways.

Rail sector begs for investors. Huge electricity needs. That's business waiting for them. We have a revitalized Code of Conduct bureau.We have CHANGE! So it's no more business as usual. Don't paint us good when we need help. You can't say your son is an A-star student fit for scholarship, when he can't speak well, read and write. We are not where we should be. It's good the world knows. If you have a load you want to carry, people will only help if u bend to carry it, not by just standing by it!

Hmm...

I tynk d statistics is not dat bad

Mehn... D girl above me spoilt my show

I 4 be FTC nw

noise maker.. Nigeria is never broke..

chai....short

Well said Alibaba, u r one comedian i know that is fit to venture into politics and do well in it. Keep it up Sir.

Nigeria has been broke for a very long time.


Signs of a Good Economy


Employment: 85% of Nairalanders are unemployed.

Stable Power: Generators are still one of the fastest selling commodity in Nigeria.

Security: When last have you felt safe in Nigeria? If in doubt about our security, look at the number of escorts the following types of people move with;

1. Expatriates

2. Government officials,

3. Even the Police and Army chiefs all need heavily armed security,

4. The rich and well to do.

Even Militants sef dey need security once them blow.. Even Abu Shekau needs security.


Good Road Network: As we speak, Port Harcourt has been cut off from Owerri.. Onitsha would soon be cut off from Owerri as well. As Soon as Abia cuts off from Owerri too, Biafra can claim independence in Imo State as the only way to reach the State would be by Air.


Productivity.. We are a consumer Nation.

Go to the Ports, The Ships that come into Nigeria are full of Containers, when they leave, they are almost empty. We are a Nation that produces Oil but Imports petroleum by-products.


Corruption.. This is a Nation where 20 Billion dollars just buy leg stroll, we lock up do like say Odeshi.. Meanwhile we had to borrow 1billion Dollars to buy arms to fight Boko Haram.


Instability.. The Niger Delta keeps boiling with the ever present threat of erupting. We are still paying militants not to militate in the Niger Delta. That matter is far from settled. Meanwhile Boko Haram are killing men, plundering villages, kidnapping and raping girls and buring down villages in the North daily. In the East, the clamour for Biafra is still strong. The Fulani Herdsmen and still wrecking havoc across stateliness, e.t.c. Political Thuggery is still rife in our democracy, e.t.c.


Education.. Nigeria today is filled with a lot of half baked graduates and our public schools are filled with unqualified and illiterate teachers. Today in Nigeria, quality Education costs way way way more than it ever did in history. The future isn't looking too bright on that front. Many of the Graduates you see coming out of school cant even properly fill out an application form without assistance.


Healthcare.. India is one of the worlds biggest Health tourism desitination in the world and Nigeria is one of its biggest market. A friend who went to get a Visa to India said its easy to mistake the Indian Embassy waiting room for a Hospital emergency room as most of the appicants are literally hanging on to life by the hair of their chinny chin chin.

Look at Akpabio who built a world class hospital in Uyo and commissioned it at a large party. Yet when was involved in an auto accident in Abuja, he rather flew 6 Hours + to London to get treated than fly 45 Mins to his Worldclass facility.


Friendly Business Climate: Lol.. Try to buy land, Omo nile dey wait you. Try to start cab business, NURTW go run you down. Try to enter Tanker business, NUPENG go run you down. Try to open store, government agencies from Environmental to health to name it go use stickers and levies run you down, meanwhile na you go still thruway your dustbin, provide your light, provide your water, still pay bills on top join, pay federal, state and local government tax, pay vigilante levy, pay Alaye levy, Agbero dey their own dey wait you.





The list too plenty. The truth is that we are definitely broke. That's why we keep borrowing money from the IMF and Worldbank and China on a regular.


The truth is that there is actually nothing to suggest that Nigeria is actuallya rich nation apart from the fact that we are an oil Producing Nation and that isn't enough to make us rich unfortunately..

He is right.

Awon wailers, over to you

.

6. 64% of statistics from and or about Nigeria is almost always inaccurate - including this one.

Ali-mumu

But me am broke

another funny comedy from Alibaba....

Frm Ali-Baba Then it's not true it's only a joke......

It was only a question of time before the consequences of our decades of waste, primitivity and lack of vision, caught up with us.

All over the world, intelligent and sensible leaders plan their nations but not ours. God will punish all those leaders who have contributed directly or indirectly to this huge mess we've found ourselves.

Are other countries also telling buhari of their problems? India has the highest level of rape crisis in the world, I've never heard of it from the horses mouth. America is struggling with racism, gun violence and scammers, I didn't hear Obama speak of it in Kenya or the last country he visited. Mexico has been battling with a bitter drug war and it even seems the drug lords are winning, I've never heard the president speak of it to foreigners. I only heard it in the news. Whenever u share ur weakness, people would first of all sympathize with u, then use it against u. Personally I wouldn't want to have anything to do with any country i hear negative things about coming from the mouth of its own president. This man is killing our pride, I wonder what he is trying to achieve? Is our image as a country not bigger than Apc winning elections in 2019?

Was it not the same dude that campaigned for GEJ

There've been cries and alarms here and there that at the moment, the economy is almost dead and it is biting everywhere!

My question has been: is it waiting to be revived by the ministers when they start working? If yes, then we can't wait!

Really?
