You do not need to tell the deaf person that war has started,when war start everybody will know because it is self evident
We in war of hunger, starvation, deprivation, hopelessness,yet challatants is talking about renewed hope for all this is deceitful,may be it only for the three tiers of government not the public with mystery index permeating all spheres of life
Another Multinational corporation just like others is winding up citing same reasons just like other,yet nothing is done,we only have propaganda of credit policies for SMEs,who have they given
Find below the problem
High cost of energy
Corruption
Toxic economic environment

Insecurity
We can now see more why our GDP dropped to 2.98% apart from using our reserve to offset forward contract of $7bn,our debt is far above N97.34trn this is at Dec 2023,adding Afriexin$3.3bn, World Bank $2.2bn will show our true status
Misplaced priorities
Utility car@N160m for over 300 dysfunctional legislators,shrowded in mystery of monumental corruption
Refurbishment and building all in billion
Building 700km@N4b)km,we hare going to spent N6trn in road good but not timely as the economy is in wreck, comatose, quagmire.
I want to belief we should first salvage the economy first
We are spending trillion on assymetrical war of terrorism yet there is constant killing,raping,maiming in North every day overstressing our defence,how can we survive now if there is external aggression
We have 48 underperforming Ministers,only 5 is doing mild work, Aviation,works,FCT, interior,trade though there is no meaningful impact on economy the rest are even more confused in thier one year media briefing ,no impact only financial wreck across all.
The war of hunger, starvation,out of school children,joblessness, terrorism across all regions who are secessionist is beating fast
Power
Government must subsidize power for industrial sectors little wonders from record three tiers of governments have not being paying electricity consumption over decades
Suggestions
All consumers residential, commercial must pay reflective price
We must exploreithet source at federal and subnational not later than immediately let us stop the craze of palliatives nothing is reaching the poor
We only have media propaganda with spurious figure
We still have 20m students out of schools mostly in North
IPoB in Southeast preventing student from sitting for Waec
We have 151 communities in captivity just like North east and Northwest,yet trillion is going ad security votes unaccountable
We need to restructure, recalibration reposition now
