Most of the 'senseless' Buhari supporters are better than your family members in all ramifications and so shall it remain until the apocalypse.

DeleteAbeg d blog needs drama, let her keep bringing it. Wasted sperm!
Stella, give us the stats in a graphical form.. So it can be better appreciated... No be only copy and paste work abeg!
ReplyDeleteJob growth is a major market of economic growth. If job creation or growth is down, it means employers aren't hiring or are laying people off. In turn, spending will reduce as people are uncertain what the future holds interns of job security and they'll focus on saving for a rainy day.
ReplyDeleteThe reason jobs have fallen is the uncertainty in the economy. Nobody is investing. Nobody is starting new businesses that will employ labour. Nobody is sure of the policy direction of the new government especially as there's no cabinet in place. Thise with existing businesses are holding on for now. And where some want to brave the odds and invest anyway, they can't as they are unable to source foreign currency to import/export raw materials and machines. Tightening fiscal policy is not necessarily a bad thing but when you start restricting how people can use their money, your economy is in trouble. A policy targeting corrupt politicians is great but not when its at the expense of millions of legitimate business men and women
Lie! Fake statistics. How did they go about it? Una don see fool.
ReplyDeleteThis is what we call liar liar pant on fire.
