Little did we know it was a clear declaration of how our economy would be ruined from Top to Bottom.<\/p>\n<p>His words, \u201cNigeria\u2019s once robust economy has been wrecked and ruined, resulting in unbearable hardship, hunger, hopelessness, starvation, strange sicknesses, suicide and slavery.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr President and his administration have successfully turned Nigeria into an unenviable poverty capital of the world, where over 82.9 million once-thriving Nigerians can no longer afford their daily meals and other necessities of life. Millions of Nigerians now wish they were never born as Nigerians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWithout mincing words or any iota of reservations, Buhari\u2019s administration is a colossal failure and bedevilled with so many contradictions. The administration failed in every sector of our national life. This is the administration that made sweeping and salivating promises to the Nigerian populace, promising tantalising dividends the country stands to gain through its leadership, particularly in the fight against corruption, economy, security, democracy as well as national unity and cohesion.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that sadly, today, what we are experiencing is a comatose economy, corrupt and dysfunctional politics, a fractured society, a broken nation beset by widespread poverty, debilitating insecurity and, inevitably, massive distrust of government. And we have watched with dismay and utter disgust the gradual and total collapse of almost every fabric of governance in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, quite unconscionably Mr President still feels his administration is doing so well that he rolled out the drums to celebrate his seventh anniversary on 29th May.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a 28-page document, published on May 28, the presidency reeled out self-acclaimed achievements, covering legislative reform, infrastructure and agriculture. For the avoidance of doubt and for the purpose of clarity, how has the economy performed under this administration? Mr President needs to remark on his own script, to see what he has turned Nigeria into in these past agonising and dehumanising years of his administration:<\/p>\n<p>\u201d Our debt crisis manifests in our fiscal cliff as we now spend ALL of our revenue servicing debts. Nigeria\u2019s statistical figures recently showed that we now spend over 100% of our revenue on service debts. This past quarter, we spent N1.94 trillion servicing debts, while our revenue was less than that figure by N300 billion, at N1.63 trillion. This is ridiculous. So, the question we Nigerians are asking is where will we find money to fulfil other obligations? We can no longer depend on our crude oil because, it has finally become a liability, as our proceeds from crude get cancelled out by our import of petrol, Nigeria is now stuck for ways to fund itself.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the national debt stock of the country is about N41 trillion, or close to $100 billion. This is about a quarter of our GDP stressing that when we add government borrowing from people\u2019s pensions, the borrowing that was used in intervening in the bad bank, AMCON, and the Federal Government\u2019s exposure to the Central Bank of Nigeria, perhaps we are looking at least another N35 to N40 Trillion, taking our debt to GDP ratio to over 50%. Of course, debt to GDP is a meaningless index.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat about debt to revenue? That is where we find that our economy has really cascaded from prosperity to poverty on fulfilment of the unavowed determination of the President to bring the economy from fame to shame and from top to bottom.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the monetary side, the naira value is becoming uncontrollable. The foreign exchange market continues to witness a supply shortage to meet its demand. A gap of at least N250 has emerged between the official rate and the more-accessible \u2018parallel market\u2019 rate. As of today, the exchange rate is N710 per US$1 dollar, and the devastating effect of the same on the economy of our nation cannot even be fathomed. It has become one of Nigeria\u2019s worst nightmares because the exchange rate is tied to inflation and perception. It is a phenomenon that feeds on itself and leads to a spiral because Nigeria is still largely an import economy, we produce nothing apart from agricultural items which we sell raw.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInflation stands at 18.6% and the Central Bank\u2019s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has raised the benchmark rate by 100 basis points (1%) in the last two consecutive meetings. Even though rates are being raised, which should theoretically slow down inflation, the opposite has been the case. The higher the Monetary Policy Rate (MPR), the higher the inflation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigeria is also stuck in a perpetual trap of low productivity. Nigeria today is producing little or nothing. This administration failed to encourage or provide the atmosphere to increase production. And it is glaring when we analyse our exports against our imports. This situation has gotten worst under this administration. We are locked into a situation where we only grow crops and sell them yearly without adding appropriate value for export. Yet we attract the most sophisticated imports from the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMay I reiterate to the President the message of the classic Nigerian Singstar, Asa, who on the 19th day of July 2022 during the NNPC re-launch rendered her contextual song *\u201cthere is fire on the Mountain and nobody seems to be on the run?\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the song was a direct message that if as usual, you are \u2018not aware\u2019, that all is not well in Nigeria, the country over which you are the Commander-in-Chief. It is so ridiculously bad that the Commander in Chief is now the target in chief of bandits and kidnappers. What a repulsive and revulsive melodrama.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo my fellow Nigerians, this is no longer business as usual. Nigeria is heading for a seemingly irredeemable precipice under this administration. We need to speak up now before our National patrimony and collective wealth will be extinguished under this administration. Above is just an iceberg of what the economy looks like and if we fail to wake up, we may not have a nation called Nigeria by the end of this administration come 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI and other well-meaning Nigerians will continue to speak truth to power and expose the atrocities and economic scavengers of this government ruining our dear nation, it is a pledge we have made until we see a better Nigeria. the protection of our national wealth and treasure is a charge that some of us have laid on ourselves so the labour of our heroes past shall never be in vain,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Muhammadu Buhari has succeeded in taking the economy of this country from top to bottom, Nigeria\u2019s once robust economy handed over to Mr President by the last administration in 2015 is in a state of anomie today.
