• Naira and dollar notes
Our Girls are missing since April 15 2014. Pray.
God has blessed Nigeria mightily with gifts, but we repeatedly abused that blessing, leaving citizens underdeveloped in power, water, housing, education, health, transport and security. THE GIFTS ARE FOUR. The OIL we steal, impoverishing the nation; the SUN we ignore, making us powerless; the CITIZENS we cripple with Corruption. Only the CLIMATE allows us to endure the loss of the first three.
Buhari’s anti-corruption agenda appears rejected by the Uniforms which are killing change – The police, ‘yellow fever’, customs, and road law enforcement. I see one NCDCC in Bodija Ibadan at7.30am every morning, arrogantly displacing traffic with a siren and armed men. Corruption elimination is not nuclear physics. One past IGP succeeded at checkpoints.
The President Buhari Agenda must show the public actual signs of ‘UNIFORM CORRUPTION’ elimination. He will be judged by all Nigerians suffering the ‘NIGERIAN UNIFORM CORRUPTION EFFECT’. Every Nigerian child has seen a ‘UNIFORM INVOLVED IN A CORRUPTION ACTIVITY,’ from checkpoints, crossroads, ‘charge-and-bail-is-free-but-pay-N5000-sha,’ customs points, unanswered calls during robberies, to simple going to a police station to report, where you could become the accused! All need sanitisation. Solution? As the New Sheriff in Town, Buhari holding monthly ANTI-CORRUPTION MEETINGS must CHALLENGE EACH HEAD OF A UNIFORMED ORGANISATION WITH a QUERY, SUSPENSION and or SACK IF CORRUPTION PERSISTS IN 1-3 MONTHS. The country, Georgia, did it, so Nigeria can do it! REPEAT THE PROCESS WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF HEADS OF UNIFORMS UNTIL THEY CLEAN UP THEIR ORGANISATIONS.
Do these people AND President Buhari even get a ‘NATIONWIDE CORRUPTION PERCEPTION REPORT’ broken down by LISTING IN ORDER THE MOST TO THE LEAST CORRUPT LGAs, State, MDAs? Publish the list monthly. Maybe NEIITI or Transparency International –Nigeria should also do this? The Government must continue to encourage WHISTLEBLOWING.
For some time, the naira has been reduced to the status of toilet-paper due to years of PPP- Political, Public and Private Sector-theft. But now Nigeria appears on a new course with the naira, which is only considered precious by those with no foreign account. MAJOR NAIRA APPRECIATION, NAIRA UP, DOLLAR DOWN. This is an almost unknown event in Nigerian banking, demonstrating the treacherous triangle of speculators, CBN policy maladjustments and government policy precipitating the collapse of the naira recently! The recovery is supported by a reasonable dollar inflow from oil from a semi-peaceful Niger Delta, a massive reduction in frivolous spending, a stranglehold on corruption. But let us not stop at N309 as it is not the real signpost of value. The naira must reach N150, and even N80, to improve the value of money in our pocket. The better the naira value, the less agitation for salary increase! Nigeria must also be rescued from the ‘FRIVOLOUS SPENDING’ ON MULTIBILLION POLITICAL SALARY and Perks and hyper-Pensions of NASS which must be cut by 90% with sitting allowances only! Speculators- sell or frame your dollars bought for N4-500 dollars. Dealers are protesting to the CBN because they have NEVER experienced a ‘Rise in naira value.’ WHO HAS QUANTIFIED THE ‘FEEL GOOD’ FACTOR OF A STRONG HEALTHY NAIRA?
With a policy guaranteeing increased Foreign Reserves at $1-2b/month, we can predict a figure in 2019 of $50-80b, a figure we should have attained 10-15 years ago if our Presidents and NASS had been responsible, longsighted and held naira in higher esteem. Of course, too many officials managing Nigeria’s naira think first of inflating the value of hoarded stolen dollars by devaluing the naira. The cheaper the naira, the more naira they got for stolen dollars. They are in-house ‘NAIRA TERRORISTS’, destroying millions of citizens’ goals and aspirations and the naira fall for their evil personal gain. And the cheaper the naira, the easier it is to pay salaries cheaply with fewer dollars –which they still manage not to do, even with Paris Club Refunds. All is corruption!!!
Among Nigeria’s Presidents, only Buhari has seriously protected the naira. The others agreed with economists that a weak naira promoted exports. These economists are also against paying pensions in order ‘to prevent inflation’. Inhuman economics, abi? The naira should reach N150 or 80:$1 by 2019 Feb. In agreement with the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan, we must stop importing petroleum products, reducing dollar demand, ASAP. BRING OUT HOARDED NAIRA NOW! Millions of people will be elevated from poverty by empowering the naira!
Fulani cows should be branded, confined and fattened in their home states and shipped by trailer or train, NOT TRACK. No nationwide free and murderous grazing. To feed a dog, chicken or child, you buy food and feed it. Same for cows. A farmer’s produce is not FREE FOOD, and his life is worth a million cows! Allocate money to feed cows.
After 20,000Mw of power immediately, the most important responsibility of any Nigerian President, so far abandoned by all except Buhari, is to EMPOWER THE NAIRA to empower all Nigerians, not a devaluation which depresses everyone and empowers only those who corruptly acquired dollars.
NIGHTCLUBS HAVE MURDERED SLEEP nationwide, particularly, in Bodija, the residential area around Awolowo Road, Ibadan, Oyo State. This is now a BODIJA NO SLEEP NIGHTMARE NIGHTCLUB DESTINATION just like Admiralty Way, Lekki, Lagos. Citizens suffer throughout the night. SOUNDPROOF NIGHTCLUBS. RESPECT THE CITIZENS’ RIGHT TO SILENCE AND SLEEP. Where is government?
NNB: Nigerians, you, must put forward a new generation of untainted ‘I LOVE NIGERIA’ KNOWLEDGEABLE CANDIDATES for 2019.
