That is like half of what Buhari was borrowing every three MONTHS from China.

Topbanter,Delarue

Why is Tinubu not getting praised for some of great strokes his istration has embarked on?

Is the PR that bad that one would need to follow an external news medium to be aware of few of these things?

It's like the oppositions are the ones controlling the media outlets in Nigeria

Let’s be truthful, Nigeria is finished, beyond what any physical or spiritual entity can repair.

If I try to agree that hope is never lost, I am still certain not in next 150 years.

In my life time, less than a decade ago, Nigeria use to make (from that small Niger Delta) $140m DAILY

One of my lecturer said to get debt cancellation from IMF and World bank, you must agree to come back and borrow

Obasanjo told us Nigeria Dept was cancelled and the rest paid but he didn't tell us that he had gone back to take another loan

Let's give Tinubu a chance

You can't be paying debt and still be subsidizing fuel and dollar

It doesn't make sense

Krankhead:
Did you read the headline or you are just mischievous

Saturday PUNCH gathered that part of the foreign debt was the $4.95bn in loans obtained by the current istration in its first 12 months, just as the Central Bank of Nigeria said a total of $15.55bn had been spent on debt servicing between 2019 and 2024.

Some of the loans obtained during this period are the Lagos Metropolitan Development and Governance ($200m)

OBJ cleared our debts only to take another round of debts with the help of Okonjo Iweala as the errand girl. They kept it a secret from Nigerians yet same man saying some leaders ought to be behind bar, whereas in a saner clime, he'd be spending the remainder of his life in jail. Jagaban has come to carry a heavy burden and only the brave could throw himself into a deep ocean to rescue a sinking nation. Only the wise would understand, not the gullible and emotional nitwits. So far, Jagaban has been able to reduce our revenue-debt ration from 98% to 67%. There're only better days ahead.

Keep kwayet you don't know anything... tiefnubu can't clean ngozi shoes when it comes to governance.

Buhari was borrowing because he did not want to offend Nigerians by removing fuel Subsidy


Buhari was borrowing to pay fuel Subsidy

Why would a Two-Time Gov and a President of a sovereign state be compared to the head of just one organization?

Nothing to Kiss here. It's full of lies. Do you know how much apc alone borrowed in 8 years? Why did you dodge that fact? Obasanjo met 28bn usd loan obtained by the previous istration and paid a whopping 10bm out of it when crude was sold for less than 50usd. That's great achievement for Nigeria. If not for his monetisation policy, Nigeria would have collapsed by now. Crude is selling well now yet, nothing to show, but extravagant lifestyle of Tinubu buying yacht and presidential jets here and there. Every government borrows but what you do with it and the result matter. The electricity you and I are enjoying today, which your mentors said obj wasted Nigeria money on, wouldn't have been there. How many power plants did the apc build, compared to that of obj? This is the truth you need to kiss.

For your information, the loan taken by Buhari alone can't be liquidated in 2 decades. This is the truth you should kiss and not that fake and bias post you put up.

When buhari took office, he was busy blaming Jonathan, the man who left a robust economy for them which they ended up squanderig, for the Nigeria's economic woes. Now, Tinubu is blaming buhari, an apc past president. Isn't this wonderful? What a confused set of people and their ers . As if he wasn't the one who went and picked him from his house to rule Nigeria, as if he didn't tell buhari to print more currency which had further reduced the value of the naira. I didn't call Tinubu's ers illiterate without veritable reasons. Your post is one of the reasons.

Tinubu was governor when the loan for Lagos Metropolitan Development and Governance mentioned in the news piece was taken. It wasn't as if the then FG ate it. Obj touched every region in development unlike that we see today.

Two time Governor and president my ass...two time minister.. coordinating Minister, foreign affairs and head of world class organization bigger than Nigeria is no match to a cocaine sniffing failed ant who took our economy from where Jonathan and ngozi left it as biggest economy to 4th in Africa...you should be ashamed of your IQ and your banana education.

Tiefnubu product.

But Tinubu is taking more loans than Buhari did. So how can you claim he is repaying loans whilst he is actively taking loans?

Na person go still pay the loan this one dey take now

Philipponzaghi:
No wahala, this is the reality of governance. The current FG is just cleaning up the mess from past istrations. Steady progress, one step at a time!

We have absolutely nothing to show for this loan. Just look at some of the things we took the loans for, you'd know they were taken to line the pockets of some people while we pay back.

The easiest way to get healed is to give up on Nigeria.

When you say this to people, they start to throw insults around.........

They lack the intelligence to look at data, staring at them .......

if the politicians stopped stealing, we would have been debt free even before GEJ's government ended. Alas, he said stealing is not corruption.

GEJ's governement was riled with policies that didn't really improve standard of living or economic potential of Nigeria. it was too bad. Then Nigerians went for Buhari.... omo we have suffered

The best economic In Africa at that time standard of living was OK. Now Tinubu government is diplomaticly blaming pdp istration. Let Tinubu government publish all the loans from obasanjo to Tinubu era each loan each président took so far let us shame the devil 😈

This means that Buhari's debt alone is over ( $32b) 32Billiom US dollars. since our debt is over 42.12 Billion US dollars.

Yankee101:
Tinubu and Buhari are the biggest culprits

No saints but they had to deal with the mess. PDP could not fix refineries and power in 16 years. GEJ started borrowing to pay salaries, Okonjo revealed that even before they left power. Everything finished by the end of GEJ's tenure.

How much that useless Buhari and Tinumbu collect from inside those billions of dollars?

My fear is that one clueless almajiri from the north will get there and reverse all these gains (that come with pain) like we recently experienced.

Tinubu has finished this country you are paying back 10b dollars dept by former President but you have also borrowed almost 5b dollars in less than 2 years

Over $32b.

Who sent his father to become a donkey for Nigeria? He rigged his way up there to carry Nigeria's load right? You think Nigerians are brain dead‽

Your Jagabandit himself, hasn't he added to those loans? He's paying 69 different loans, how many has he collected within 1 year in office?

Same blame game you guys played for 8 years under Buhari, always blaming the previous istration, you guys want to continue... When Nigerians can't take it anymore, all of you will suffer the consequences.

I wonder why Buhari;k's name Mr loans for infrastructure is not mentioned

The moment i didn't see Buharideen's government I know it's politically motivated

Krankhead:

Shut up. Headline kill you. APC should stop using our scarce resources to bribe useless bloggers to post rubbish. Tinubu is clueless, incompetent, criminal, Animal and a liar.
