Madam, do you really mean to tell us that you didn't get the drift.

I guess it has to be either one of two things:

1. That you do not have the requisite inclination to follow his explanation through, or;

2. That you're just being frivolous with your riposte.

I'll tend to think the latter is more correct in this circumstance, but you may advise us differently if this is not your understanding.
New English wey you learn dey sweet you to type here abi? What is the highest level of education you've attained if I may ask. I'm not here to join issues with juveniles who have never earned a paycheck all their lives. Rubbish!

At this point, I think there's no need for me to push you further on this.

I see you have a penchant for halfhearted measures. I can assure you I'm not the most educated guy around but I am continuing in my efforts to improve and better myself.

In the end, I hope it leaves me well rounded and intellectually competent to contribute meaningfully to issues both now and for the future.

I have no issues with you and all the insinuations you have and may still wish to raise about me while hiding behind an avatar.

Thanks and best regards,

Konvict0111

well,ur right! But common sense shd have told him dat at a time like dis he shd strive to patronise locally made goods 2 save our forex! Dat aint rocket science na! Any dullard in nigeria knws dat we are wher we are 2day due 2 overdependence on foreign goods. Dollar is 4h now bros and tins have skyrocketted...I just bot nivea rollon 2day for 7h against 300/350 dat I normally buy it. I'l leav u 2 catch ma drift,..

Innoson doesn't have any vehicle in it's inventory that is worthy of a direct Presidential fleet and besides they don't manufacturer vehicles but simply assembles them from foreign CKD units.

Money spent on Presidentaial fleet is not going to worsen Nigerians problem.

We are here today not because of foreign goods but because of corruption and not diversifying our economy enough. We were too reliance on oil.

We're not saying the same thing.

I support Buhari buying import vehicle, you disagree.

I am confident that Innison merely assembles from CKD units, you disagree.

I'm an autoist and just in case you think I'm belittling IVM please understand that I am a supporter.

No country can stop importation of goods and trading with other countries, not even North Korea.

Also Japan has no natural resource and imports everything.

Importing is not bad. What is bad is not exporting to earn other than oil.

By the way, we don't have to agree and I'm not trying to force you to agree but please do some research on Innoson. Going to Nnewi to see a factory means nothing.

On your trip to Nnewi, did you see a design team, an Research and Development team, presses pressing out steel panels, engines being built from scratch as in engine blocks being formed and pistons being created?

b4 we blame buhari,lets ask what is causing d increased fall of the naira against d dollar? Primarily, it is caused by the global fall of crude oil (90% of our exports). It is a global event dt even buhari isnt powerful 2 prevent. Check the currencies of oda major crude oil exporting coun3s & u wld notice d plummet in currency value. D foreign reserves & excess crude account is supposed 2 cushion d effects albeit temporarily. d problem we r facing is dt while our import bill is increasing, our export revenues r drastically shrinked. dis arose 4rm failure of successive govts 2 stimulate local production, diversify our economy, encourage multiple commodity exports & excessively reliance on crude oil. what makes our problem worse dan most oil export is dt we r an import dependent economy. So whaqts happening is dt d small dollars we have is going into d pockets of oda economies while their dollars dt used 2 come 4rm dem buying our crude oil has reduced seriously. What buhari is trying 2 do is trying (nt too well IMO) 2 put restrictions on d way our dollars wld leave our economy bt we r just too dependent on imported goods dt its proving really difficult. Importers need dollars 2 pay 4 imported goods so in dis case d importers anticipating crackdown on dollar availability r trying 2 buy more more dollars dan dey usually do. Dis creates more demand 4 dollars so because more naira is chasing fewer dollars, deres a spike in d exchange rate. Depending on d soundness of buhari's economic policies & d level of cooperation he gets 4rm involved parties, dis might either b temporary or worsen bt d bitter pill all nigerians must swallow is dt dis wld last a long tym & dere is little we can do 2 avoid it. We r reaping what we v sown b

All of u blaming PMB and canonizing GEJ should ask urselves dis simple question "if d nigerian economy was so strong as GEJ & NOI said & nt a fugayzi built on a stack of cards, y has it gone all haywire in d little tym he left power? If he did such a good job, y didnt it lat 4 even a year? Yes buhari shld currently apply more effort 2 salvage our economy 4rm going 2 the dogs bt dnt 4gt wt or rada who landed us here. When oil prices were $100/barrel, who didnt save sufficiently? who after 6 yrs in power (16 yrs 4 his party) failed 2 successfully diversify d economy? Who cldnt establish sufficient refineries so we wld stop importn fuel? who cldnt solve our power problems despite spending donkey years in power? dts who we shld blame.

No he won't.

He'll be getting the respect and admiration accorded to a General.

But please don't let me interfere in your salacious fantasy.
Respect for a General who personally disrupted a Democratic government? I'd like to see that.

Superlative post. Nigeria has no comparstive advantage in producing cars. The country is better off importing.

Imports are very beneficial. They fuel growth.

I have argued that if Nigeria decided to have a zero % duty for all goods, you'd feel the economy move under your feet.

The problem is Nigeria does not export as you said. Import substitution does not work.

It's his duty as an Officer that is sworn to uphold the constitution.

I fully support him. The fact that regardless of that, he's still hobnobbing with the elite leaders of the work currently mean that no one cares about the coup that he led.

It was for the greater good of Nigeria and I fully support him.

In fact if I woke up tomorrow and has declared martial law, I will be in full 100 support.

I would advice that you erect a statue of GMB and worship it every day because it's quite obvious that he can do no wrong in your eyes. You clearly don't understand Military regime and the issues that came with it. Who made him the sole determinant of what the greater good was? If he felt so strongly about leading Nigeria why didn't he resign from the military and run for office in the next election? Why should a man who truncated democracy be allowed to hold the highest office in a Democratic government. BTW Buhari can make mistakes and our job as the electorate is to point out these mistakes so that we can move forward.That's how a democracy works.
