Isn't that what Ngozi Iweala started? The death of our economy?

Previous Govts Initiated ‘Most Of The Things This Administration Is Doing’ – Adesina


A majority of the projects the Muhammadu Buhari administration is working on was inherited from previous administrations, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity has said.

Mr Femi Adesina said this when he appeared on Channels Television’s special Independence anniversary programme on Sunday.

“Most of the things this administration is doing – 60 to 70 percent of them – were initiated by previous governments,” he said.

“That shows you that in the past a government will come and say ‘this is not our project’ And it will discard what was being done and start fresh ones.”

As a result, Mr Adesina said there are many half and quarter-completed abandoned projects.
But rather than abandon the project, he explained that the current administration will complete it.

An example is the Abuja-Kaduna rail project which the Presidential aide said was up to maybe 60 to 70 percent complete when the last administration left.

“This administration came, completed it and inaugurated it. Then you will still find some people shouting, ‘they are claiming credit for what the past administration started,” he said.

“It shows there is a mentality in Nigeria that makes governments not want to complete what previous governments have started. But this administration is not going that way at all, it is just doing what needs to be done for the good of the country.”

Another example is the Mambilla power project, which has been in the works since 1972, but has now started taking shape under this administration.

In going about its activities, Mr Adesina said the Federal Government follows due process in the awarding of contracts, stressing that projects worth above N50m will require the permission of the Federal Executive Council before such a contract can be awarded.

“One thing this government does scrupulously is to follow due process in the award of all these contracts and projects.

“Anything that is above N50m must come to the Federal Executive Council. Before the FEC will endorse any project or contract, the Bureau of Public Procurement must have signed off on that project that it is worthy to be done and the projections are good, that this government does not joke about.”

Let us see what the administration in which Ngozi worked started- just one example oh.
I hope that you understand the impact of infrastructure on economic development.

kn23h:
Am I supposed to be fighting with you or defending politicians? Dude get a life.

I don't need to do all that to make money. Go meet your mates.

anonimi:


Why did you make a FALSE statement that you cannot substantiate when challenged

Does your life only revolve around making money? Why don't you take Kemi's advice or are you just a hypocrite?

CROWNWEALTH019:
See who we use do minister for economics, when she ought to be plotting graph

I no dey follow you fight for GEJ crumbs. Calm down.

anonimi:


You are the one who needs to calm down about going around making FALSE statements.
And you just made one again about fighting for crumbs, which ordinarily I should report you to the mods but I will let it slide for this time.
Learn to show some seriousness instead of following this yeye owambe minister of finance who with his baba isale of corruption Buhari, has ruined our economy from prosperity to recession in record time rather than deliver on their campaign promises. Understood

kn23h:


I no dey follow you fight for GEJ crumbs. Calm down.

No wonder Nigerian economy is just the way it's.Guess the APC otondo finance minister didnt say this during official function? Even if you must flex kindly do it on your own volition.

Central Bank drives the economy more than the finance ministry. It is the economic policy formulator and economic adviser to the Govt.

kn23h:
Be quiet.

Nigeria's economy has always been on life support.

I'm sure this won't be the first time someone is telling you to enjoy your life and not too work too hard. So what makes her case different?

Love Kemi to the moon and back.

anonimi:


Since when did the minister of Finance of what used to be the biggest economy in Africa become just someone?
It is your prerogative to love her to hell and back. However she owes a duty to the Nigerian citizens who pay her fat salary. Do you see the difference?

kn23h:


I no dey follow you fight for GEJ crumbs. Calm down.

deji17:
This woman is beautiful. Success all the way!

Are we not playing more than enough already?
That includes the time we spend in mosques and churches instead of research and brainstorming solutions for our society.
It is shameful that our Finance minister's key message on an international forum in a university environment was keyed on enjoying more than we are doing already.
She must be an owambe minister. Time to change her portfolio
For how long shall Nigerians, Africans and black people be the scums of the earth and rely on others for all our modern day life, including drugs for illnesses that are only here?

Are you joking or are you seriously joking?
Where did you learn the above from?
Or this is just a lame attempt to shield Kemi, the incompetent from taking the blame of ruining our prosperity and turning it into recession?

Stop the fallacy . Nigeria's finance ain't in any shambles. Almost all standard firms posted a very mouth watering and envious profit this year. Since I was born , it has always been one complain or the other about how the Nigeria economy is tough . Nigeria's economy is just like LIFE itself . It is what you make it .
