This was an interview where the Minister was specifically asked about the exchange rate situation. He tried to explain the factors that influence the rate making reference to oil price. He simply said the SITUATION (exchange rate) was beyond the president since he does not control oil price. He never said the ECONOMY was beyond the President’s control as misrepresented by the media.

How the media gets away with such mischief is beyond me. Worse still is the fact that 80% of readers do not even notice this distortion of facts. These are people that will later assume leadership positions. With such shallowness among citizens, the future is even more uncertain.

Seems ure d one with deficient intellect,why on earth will a govt. accept that anything is beyond its control?
If PMB cannot control d exchange rate why then is he pegging it?
D exchange rate is a fundamental part of d economy,govt. policies seek to stabilize,increase or decrease it depending on d motive.
If PMB's policy cannot control d exchange rate is it Iya Basira's policy dat will increase d value of d naira?
I supported PMB's campaign and even spent my personal money to ensure he wins,but lets call a spade a spade. Na wa o. When they said you shld go to school, u refused. Have u been sleeping since or living under a cave  Nigerian govt is actively in control of the exchange rate. Thats why CBN keeps selling at 197 eventhough blackmarket is 312. Were u asleep when Buhari refused to devalue And btw stop lieing about spending your funds for this govt, cos your comments shows your criticisms arent constructive in the slightest. You are just a regular wailer trying to disguise as a supporter! |

True he was asked a question about the forex situation The only way out is what the government is doing, which is strengthening the economy, diversifying it, plugging all the loopholes and making sure that only the essential things are imported. It will be extremely difficult, no doubt, but we are also in a state of emergency economically. You see, take for instance, your earnings reduced from N100 to N30 per month, something will have to give way…like relocating to a smaller house and I mean this is a reality.
The fact that the government is even still managing this situation, I give credit to the government, because the situation is completely beyond their control, and this is where people have been mischievous… But in his response, he moved into an analysis of the economic situation. That was the situation he meant control had been lost. Who is being mischievous now? No matter how you try to spin this for the APC government, 2 facts have been made clear here. 1, the current government is completely clueless on how to turn this situation around. They are only reacting to events trying to keep head above water. 2, Lai Muhammed has no control of his utterances 7 Likes 2 Shares |

And what makes you so confident that the SITUATION he meant was just that of the exchange rate? It seems you also inherited the lying gift from Lai the Lier.
Read the excerpt again. Lai mentioned the SITUATION that's affecting the free fall of the naira. He talked about balance of trade, export/import, fall in crude price. All these are the SITUATION leading to the free fall of the naira and the poor economy. And he said this is beyond the President's control. The SITUATION here is a totality of the forces affecting the economy not just an aspect of it as you claim.
So you see, you lied just like Lai. And you didn't even lie well. You should have said SITUATION meant fall in crude price rather than exchange rate. How can you say the exchange rate is beyond the control of the president? That means you're suggesting he's incompetent in boosting the value of the naira. Well, I agree with you on that. Do you just want to appear plain ignorant or just plain sillly? The question the minister was asked (if you didn't read it) was about the DISCIMFORTING FALL OF RHE NAIRA recently. To the above, the minister gave his answer. He started by giving the relationship between import and export and balance of trade as it affects the local currency. He explained further that our unfavorable balance of trade is largely responsible for the fall in naira value, occasioned largely by the fall in the price of crude oil world wide which in itself is a global phenomenom. Drop in Global demand for oil relative to "over" supply, brings down the price of oil vice versa. Is this under the control of Nigeria's government? Sadly NO. Not only is the minister right, his statement was miscontructed. |

Elose11:
Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has clarified that his comment on the economic situation being out of the control of President Muhammadu Buhari was misrepresented.
He was reacting to a story in THISDAYLIVE of this Saturday, March 12th 2016 entitled ”Economy Gone Out of Buhari’s Control, Says Lai Mohammed”.
This was contained in a statement by Mr. Segun Adeyemi, Mohammed’s Special Assistant (SA) on Information and Culture.
Although he described the report as a “complete misrepresentation of the comments” made by the minister, with Lai Mohammed denying making them, a playback of the recorded interview shows Mohammed said the situation was beyond the government’s control – considering the various forces at play.
“It is pertinent to state that at no time during the entire two-hour (radio) programme did the Honourable Minister say or suggest that the economy has gone out of the President’s control,” the SA’s statement said..."
However, the relevant portion of the statement from where our story derived is somewhat different. Below is the excerpt beginning with the question by the interviewer.
The programme was aired on FRCN’s Radio Link

Go back and read the text all over.. And while reading, pay good attention to the part that says: "...It will be extremely difficult, no doubt, but we are also in a state of emergency economically. . You see, take for instance, your earnings reduced from N100 to N30 per month, something will have to give way… like relocating to a smaller house , and I mean this is a reality.

You're gona do a lot of this. Did you at anytime use these words. "stealing is not corruption" ?
We all knew what GEJ said but it was twisted and used against him. Even Mohammed used it against him.
So, it comes around. The economy challenge is beyond buhari... Lai Mohammed Gej statement ''What many Nigerians refer to as corruption is actually stealing. Stealing is not the same thing as corruption.'' that statement is in no way related to the subject at hand. it's a statement on its own without reference to any other previous or subsequent comment. The subject matter draws its conclusion from a previous comment. |
