If you are a young Nigerian, please make the effort to understand the Nigerian economy..
Read about other systems, read monetary policy in other countries.
Read about how they tackle trade and investment.
Don't let Nigeria fail you, know when you're being fucked with.
Read about inflation..
Read what triggers inflation, read about trade, read the factors that make trade possible..
I can't stress this enough, READ THE FACTORS THAT MAKE TRADE POSSIBLE.
I have given up on the older generation, economic policy is Abracadabra to them.

Next time you wonder why Trump is popular in Nigeria.
One ex U.S president refused to sell weapons to Nigeria and supported the Daura feudalist..
While another imposed VISA bans on Nigerian Politicians a week before an election.
We no hear pim about violence in Edo..
I don't like Trump for my personal reasons.
But you lot that paint Nigerian Trump supporters as stupid need to face reality..
And I hope you are taking lessons, one visa ban and people could vote in peace.

Food inflation at 16% already and expected to rise as we approach December.
Nigeria lost 25% of rice harvests this year alone.
Meanwhile Borders and still closed and bread bakers are threatening to strike.
Playing politics with food is a war crime and people will die.
Nigerians spend 60% of income on food.
With food inflation rising above 15%, it's obvious Nigerians are spending over 60% of their income on food.
Nigeria has a median age of 17.9, we have already seen what bandits can do.
The result of this sabotage will be violence.

Over 15 hours since the NEDC corruption.
And NEDC is not trending on Twitter..
Ogbeni Dipo suddenly won't tweet about NEDC and blame people in Borno.
The rest of you suddenly remember it's a Nigerian problem..eyahh
The safest place in Nigeria is your village
If you're an ethnic minority..
Nigerians will hold you to standards they don't even hold themselves.
God forbid your politicians fuck up..
That's when Nigerians will blame you for Super Eagles losing to Sweden in 2002 World Cup..
I dey observe, well done Nigeria..

Food inflation for the month of June was 15.18%
Nigerians are not earning more
by the end of 2020, 7 million Nigerians will fall under poverty
This nonsense we pretend Poverty is not the biggest threat to Nigerians will end us
Obviously we haven't learnt from Bandit attacks
The Nigerian govt cannot obviously draw a straight line between Poverty and Violence.
That's why even after Border Closure has made our food inflation worse.
We decide to ban maize imports, we are not working on increasing yields..
Just ban and impoverish your population.

Last week, Bloomberg and Guardian talked about pollution in the Niger Delta
It was Niger Deltans who are sick and tired about pollution killing our babies that made it possible
Nobody calls out corruption of Niger Delta politicians like Niger Deltans
It's why you know about it
Is the Nigeria taking our resources?
I mean Buhari has refused to sign a Petroleum Industry Bill that would have brought billions in FDI to industralize my region.
Meanwhile a an elephant project to send gas to the North has been approved.
Make we dey watch

It's easy to understand why some people mentally give up on Nigeria.
And spend the rest of their energy trying to leave.
The ones who can't afford to fly, trek the Sahara, survive slavery in Libya and enter a boat to Italy
It's a miracle we are not at war really, huge miracle
You can't put millions of young people in an unproductive country.
And expect loyalty, they will give up or turn to crime.
The Hushpuppi arrest is seen a tragedy to some because to some people Hushpuppi is a hero.
It's repulsive, but I don't blame them.

Nigerians think Pay Per View for DStv is cheap because of the " sachet economy".
We buy 50 Naira Milk and Milo because we are a poor nation, nothing else
The fact FMCGs make sachet Milk does not mean it can work in media where's costs are in $$$.
We will learn by force.
Before DStv dumps EPL, I hope they give us our dear PPV.
You go spend 20k to watch like 15 games in a month, your eyes go open.
Nigerians have lost $1000 in GDP per capita in 6 years, focus on that.
We can't even afford to stream games illegally, we are too poor for that.

Nigerians think DStv is " cheating " us is because 82 Million of us live on less than $2 a day
We are poor, disposable income no dey
House of Reps will support policies that makes Nigerians poorer
Then wonder why Nigerians can't afford DStv
Meanwhile we pay cheap DStv prices
We pay the some of the cheapest DStv prices in Africa.
Yet we act like we own it , like we pay the highest prices and have the highest subscribers ( we don't)..
A country where people want the benefits of Capitalism with Socialist economic policies..

From tomorrow, Nigerian Journalists will write epistles how Ajimobi nearly ended world hunger.
But death stopped him..
Abba Kyari's death showed niggas format.
By the way don't expect his friends in power to fix healthcare after Ajimobi's death.
The thing about terrible Government policies is that it will touch everybody.
Does not matter when, but Las Las E go touch everybody.
From poverty , to poor healthcare and education.
Everyone will have a story..

Nigerian Politics is so uninspiring, I wonder why we even bother.
Politicians and their Godfathers will unlook a shit Economy for 3 years.
But during elections, they suddenly discover the power to negotiate deals and move around the country in 48 hours.
The whole Obaseki - Oshiomhole thing is so exhausting..
This is what we have been reduced to, Federal Government is asleep, States are sleeping too.
But during elections, you wonder where these energy has been.
Because after this election, nothing will change.

When America prints money (QE), they export the inflation.
But Nigeria wants to engage in 1.11 Trillion printing money scheme in a plan to bring 10 Million jobs
We all know that inflation won't be exported.
next year we will all pretend to be shocked at inflation numbers
"with funds from N500bn from Special Accounts, N1.11 trillion of CBN structured lending and N302.9bn from other funding sources”.
This is a plan to fund creation of 10 Million Jobs..
A country wants to create jobs but no plan on FDI for it, just print naira and Ishallah.

Last Week Yemi Osinbajo admitted that 39.4 Million Nigerians will be unemployed by end of the year
His plan to kick-start the economy, no talk of opening the borders for trade
It's agriculture..
When that party is done with Nigerians, maybe we will have sense.
The party obsessed with Agriculture, but never gets its right.
We don't need more people going to the fields, we need less people and bigger mechanised farms.
If more people are returning to farming, it's a sign of multi dimensional poverty.
But maybe Yemi is a miracle worker

The Banditry and Terrorism Northern Nigeria...
Will be treated same way they have treated the economy
They will let it rot, because they did not come to power to lead, they came to eat
People that negotiated with Bandits are not going to end it
This is the new normal
The funny thing is, this is happening in Buhari's backyard.
It's not a problem in Onitsha or Ibadan, it's right in Katsina and he does not give a shit.
A man who does not care about his brothers dying will not care if the economy is shit for a Yoruba man.
