Nigeria,

A country where proven public service failures stand up to lecture others who had made a success of both their private and public lives. Fashola should be ashamed of himself for talking about economy even while his government has collapsed under economic woes.

You really cannot use infrastructure to grow the economy, what Fashola failed to mention was that the millions of liters of gas used to build the bridge were imported, at a very negative balance of trade for a country that has gas under its soil? Most of the other materials and manpower are also imported, benefiting foreign countries. The number of expatriate workers in JB will amaze you, with thrice that number serving them as cooks, gardeners, drivers and security men. Loss of foreign currency.

You grow the economy organically, by improvements in the GDP, creating enabling environment with power supply (an area Fashola failed woefully) and making sure more people work and exchange goods and services, not to talk about tax. APC keep proving everyday that they are ers by in the corridors of power.

Vote for Peter Obi.

He will make Nigeria so rich and prosperous that the likes of Fashola will relocate to Jamaica to hide their faces.

Pandora hoebi with a 3rd class in Philosophy is not qualified to be taught directly by the great Asiwaju of Nigeria.

He should be attending classes where Tinubu's students are lecturers.

All Tinubu's students are doing great, pandora hoebi the olodo should consult them, not Tinubu. Tinubu is too big for him. cheesy

Fashola and Obi are not mates.

One major drawback of Obi is that he talks a lot and if you delve deep into what he is saying most times, it is hard to correlate his words into tangible solutions for the economy.

Furthermore, a lot of youths shouting Obi really do not even bother to critique his ideas or solutions. To them it is simply about being "Obidient"

Abeg obidient to what? Most don't even know.

Why hasn't it been felt by ordinary Nigerians, the gains of the infrastructure, in regards to the economy..
Majority of the infrastructure this APC has put up is based on loans, most of that infrastructure has been rendered useless by insecurity, it was on that premise Peter Obi made his statement.
If the infrastructure APC is putting up isn't based on loans, and no insecurity, we will all hail them.

The point Obi made is, very valid.

Abeg obidient to what? Most don't even know.

How is building and getting necessary equipment for school not a solution to building the economy.

How is becoming a producing nation instead of a consuming one not a solution to building the economy?

How is cutting unecessary cost and channelling these same fund to important things not a solution to grow the economy?

How is investment in SMEs not a solution to growing the economy.

One thing you must understand about Peter Obi ers is that they are learned and they can relate to his policies. I know what Peter Obi knows, because I am in same field, and I know those are what Nigeria needs.

Tell me how building rail lines from Abuja to Kaduna has helped the economy of Nigeria.

Tell me how building fly overs have helped the economy of Nigeria.

No body is saying that infrastructure is not important, that can come and at the important places.

Good motorable roads in villages that produce food, that we need now.

There are sectors which will drive development and create jobs before we talk about building fly overs and rail ways which we need to borrow first.

Apart from insulting people, you guys dont have any points. Others are calling the names of the politicians, you guys are calling them with another names just to divert the argument to name calling and derogatory comments.
