Akiko. Story

Is it the same finance minister who does not know the meaning of imprest that knows this?

We the citizens have already been in recession before now, having leaders who are financially reckless and without a definite direction of where they are leading their people to. Nigerian leaders know that there is death after which is judgment.

Even Nigeria needs to put Recession in National Anthem. Shio! Tueh

And I guess, you've gat no single clue how to prevent it (that's if we're not already in it prior to your appointment sef). We get Okonjo, we leave am. Now, other nations don hustle our own from us. Naija, kontinew to dey mumu o

Every country in the world already are in recession. You do not be the first or last. Always there is a good solution.

We are already swimming in recession, lots of businesses are shutting down and people are loosing their jobs....!

All these years without pandemic, are we not into recession?

Nigeria has been in recession

It's not a new thing , we are there already . No controversy.

Nigeria has been in recession since 1999 because we borrow. If you ain't in recession, you won't collect loan from China

We are already in recession, this is what is prompting the government in hurriedly wanting to open the economy. I hope we won't regret this as a nation.

end of next level

Nigeria suppose to be in depression now because of OilCrash, only source of revenue to zoo, Nigeria government.

Nigeria has been wallowing in recession since 2015. So what is this VVF patient trying to say?

When you do not know that if the main consuming population is made poor by government actions and inactions, it produces recession.

There was never a time since the regime of Buhari we came out of recession.

After looting Nigeria

Kemi was better than this one o. We are just retrogressing sha. Foremost Nigeria universities should have mentoring programs like Harvard does. Where people like Okonjo, Sanusi, Soludo will teach Kemi, this one and their likes. They mustn’t leave this earth with their knowledge!

We won't go into recession if all of u bring out the money u hid in ur wardrobes, underground and foreign banks.

Only for the poor.

May go? What is this one talking about. We are in recession already!

After giving palliative cash transfers to ghosts and feeding ghosts school children, you now remembered going on the recession. Nigeria is already on break.

We’ve known that before

We have always been in recession nah, which recession again, ask the ordinary Nigeria , abeggi dey should leave us alone, simple just say polithiefcians are going to recession because no oil money to steal for now

Sahara Reporter is equal to bad news reporters and supporter of book haram

She has never for once provide new ideas on how to grow Nigeria economy inwardly except on how to borrowing/obtaining loan all over the world... henryshield DokunOjomo

You don't say.

AChijioke Even before u pronounced it, we knew.

And you are there giving out monies to non productive sector of the economy, instead of providing a workable plan for the building of infrastructure. Give busines owners paliatives. Ensure the SMEs get funding. Encourage physical farming but providing tractors not audio farmers.

Our own recession Na because greedy men don share billions 😂

Funny I think; you run the country into recession and now you are telling me so I can do what? Are you not the minister, if you dont know what to do why not resign and go home?

And they are spending money feeding children that are in their parents house. 8 weep for this nation. Ooo

Have we been out before?

Before the COVID19 outbreak, Nigeria economy was struggling to regain a broad-based recovery as a result of the lingering impact of corruption in country. Compounding this is the historic drop in the price of crude oil that reflects the global decline in economic activity.
