We Have Plans to De-dollarise the Nigerian Economy to Strengthen the Naira — Olawale Edun
Nigeria’s Minister of Finance, Olawale Edun, has announced the government’s plans to de-dollarise the Nigerian economy in a bid to strengthen the Naira.Edun emphasized that reducing the nation’s dependency on the U.S. dollar for international transactions is critical to stabilizing the Naira and boosting the country’s economic resilience.
Edun highlighted that the dependence on the dollar for trade and financial dealings has negatively impacted the Naira, leading to depreciation and inflation.The government aims to diversify its foreign exchange reserves, promote the use of the Naira in international trade, and encourage foreign investment in local currency, thereby reducing demand for foreign currency.
In conclusion, the Finance Minister’s declaration signals a bold move toward restoring the Naira’s value by reducing the economy’s dependence on the dollar. This policy, if well carried out, could play a significant role in boosting Nigeria’s economic growth.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
