The CBN ban of sale of FX to BDCs is welcome provided banks will be given enough FX to give all customers with right documentation.

The next should be total ban on BDCs and revocation of licence as they have just turned to agent of money laundry and corruption. Thereafter there should be ban on all physical cash FX, only through accounts or card wallets.

Imagine the CBN gives dollars to BDC at 410 but they sale at 500, is that not Shylock ?

The BDC will also create artificial scarcity and further devalue the naira just to be enriched

When the Obasanjo/Atiku govt came into power 1999, they met a devastated economy by the military but instead of lamentations they hit the ground running ensuring the economy is private sector driven.

Atiku was made the Chairman of privatization and rejuvenation of the economy Among the first thing they did was introduction of minimum wage, hitherto there was non, as civil servants earn as Little's 600 naira monthly, they made the minimum wage to be 5500.

This increase lubricated the economy to the path of growth, as quality of life improved.

Herders that have lost their herds have gone into banditry and everyone is afraid to say it, almost everyone kidnapped in the north west will tell you it is herdsmen, why should we keep being diplomatic with them. A micro minority have spoilt an entire tribes credibility

Every profession changes with time and animal husbandry cannot be an exception.

I am against open grazing of animals by whatever tribe because human population have increased and hitherto grazing lands and routes have now become homes and farms for cultivation of food Moreso the animals that graze for thousands of kilometers tend to have lesser meat and produce less milk.

This led to the clamour for ranching which is now a universal practice where animals are kept in a ranch and everything being provided there without the long treks

In 1998, Kodak had 170,000 employees and sold 85% of all photo paper worldwide. Within just a few years, their business model disappeared and they went bankrupt. Who would have thought of that ever happening? What happened to Kodak and Polaroid will happen in a lot of industries in the next 5-10 years and most people don't see it coming.

Did you think in 1998 that 3 years later, you would never take pictures on film again? With today’s smart phones,who even has a camera now

While Volpi was the brain and technical partner, Atiku was the financial, political and Nigerian partner.
