rusher14: Since you decided to not to use your eye and also abandon your brain in the bin outside your house, let me enlighten you a little bit. You see in 1983, Nigeria was using naira and not pounds. But am sure you didn't know that, no problem. But if you look at the top side, you will see Ogun state college of education, which means the receipt was issued in Nigeria. But am sure you didn't see that too. But the amount written in words there shows the currency to be naira. But am sure your brain couldn't process that too. Then coming to your question of exchange rate in 1983, as you can see it's been answered already so am to advice you to also change your brain while you're also looking for new glasses 3 Likes |

Not much has changed. I was thinking perhaps it should have been sold for 50-70 naira. |

happney65:Maybe you should learn about how economics work before you formulate opinions on culpability in recessions and inflation. I'm quite tired of Nigerians who claim to be educated making wild blanket statements and apportioning blames to the wrong individuals. Nigerians are too dumb for my liking.Many fail to reconcile reality on the ground with their education., at least the illiterate can claim ignorance but to be schooled and still be claiming buhari caused the recession is extremely stupid. If some Nigerians are any more stupid they would need a watering can.Buhari failed security wise but he is a pair of safe hands in turbulent times. 8 Likes 1 Share |

obiekunie1:It's an endless list of the number of companies that went under soon as that disaster of an incompetent Daura bigot,sat his Daura as s on the throne in 1983,and again now. Imagine a sewing machine,tyre assembly or manufacturing company,vehicle assembly plants as far as 1983 and what those companies would have been doing today. Anytime I just remember that some people still voted Buhari in 2019 despite first hand experience of his rule,tears involuntarily just start dropping from my eyes. 2 Likes |

doctokwus: the fact that this locust from daura that destroys anything it lands on, still garner up to 100k votes in 2019 made me lost all hope in this contraption called Nigeria! AFTER FOUR MORE YEARS OF THIS EVIL VIRUS FROM DAURA, IT WILL TAKE THIS COUNTRY 30 YEARS TO GET BACK ON THE TRACK - THAT IS IF HE DIDN'T HANDOVER TO HIS DESTRUCTIVE GOD-SON ELRUFAI!

Babalegba: Abeg make we hear word. Oil prices crashed in 1982, and we entered a recession. The military took advantage of popular discontent and seized power. Finish. Back then the generals were extremely greedy and undisciplined, and used any excuse to seize power in a coup. 3 Likes |

obiekunie1: 1.Our economy was already in free fall by December 83/when Bubu took over, and yes, he committed treason by doing so. 2..Most Nigerian textile companies were.still working under Buhari and beyond.It was in the 1990s that many of them died due to globalization, and cheap imports. 3.PAN, VoN, ANNAMCO, were still working as at 1990, Leyland and Steyr had collapsed. Bubu even kept the car industry running via import substitution.. Failure to complete Ajaokuta, plus rising import costs, and so on killed the car industry 4.Michelin did not close until the 1990s. It was still healthy under Buhari 5.Okin biscuits was very healthy right up to the end of the 1990s. I know because growing up my family was close to.someone who did wholesale of the biscuits for the company.. Even after 2000, okin was still there.. 6.AP is still there. AP came thorough Bubu reign intact.It still exists as Forte Oil. Don't know about NITECO or ASCoN. Stop lying. I thought APC had the monopoly on lies 6 Likes 1 Share |

happney65: Babalegba is correct. Wahala started in 1981 when the price of oil crashed from $40 to perhaps $30. Awolowo warned Shagari to take pre-emptive action but he snobbed Awolowo. By 1982, dollar shortages began and companies started closing here and there and massive job losses mounted. A very severe recession had started. My 1983, crime rate was rising fast and armed robberies were high. We were even robbed that year even though I was very young. Prior to that, there were hardly any armed robberies. Hired killers were unheard of. To worsen things, the NPN were so corrupt that they didn't care about the state of the economy. They just kept looting. All that was needed then was for government to float the Naira and all that horror would have been avoided. Buhari now overthrew the NPN and introduced command economics. There were price control on goods and also essential commodities. This just made a bad matter worse. IBB overthrew him in 1985 and the following year started liberalising the economy. 4 Likes |
