Nigerians Became Poorer in Buhari’s First Term, Says The Economist - THISDAYLIVE via thisdaylive

The Economist has stated that Nigerians became poorer during the first term of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, insisting that while the Nigerian economy was “stuck like a stranded truck,” average incomes fell during the four-year period covering 2015 to 2019.

“The Nigerian economy is stuck like a stranded truck. Average incomes have been falling for four years; the IMF thinks they will not rise for at least another six .“Some 94 million people live on less than $1.90 a day, more than in any other country, and the number is swelling. By 2030, a quarter of very poor people will be Nigerians, predicts the World Data Lab, which counts such things,” the report explained.

“Where urgency is needed, Mr Buhari offers only caution. Few are holding their breath for any more drive in his second term, which began on May 29th. In an apparent support for the removal of petrol subsidy, the Economist said that public finances would be healthier if the government raised the price of fuel, which is imported by the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation and sold on at a loss.

.../1 Those who rigged buhari into second term by now, should be ashamed as the man is even more confused than the beginning of his 1st term.

I listened to Mr. Bismarck Rewani two days ago talking about the economy. Even though he alluded to some uncertainty, I knew then that Nigerian economists were being economical with truth for fear of being hounded by buhari terror cabal.../2
