IMF AGAIN!

IMF says Nigeria is no more on the list of Africa's fastest growing economies. It says further that the country recorded economic success story in the last 16 years.

Excuse me! Which success story is IMF talking about?

This is the problem I have with all these imperialist agents of Western hegemony. There is almost always no relationship whatsoever between IMF theories and realities on ground. It is just like FIFA ranking. Whatever parameters they use to judge, you will never know.

Nigerians are better placed than the IMF to determine whether we actually recorded economic success in the last 16 years. What economic success when corporations owned by Western powers have all relocated to Ghana due to comatose infrastructure, insecurity and kindred other indices of backwardness?

Perhaps the IMF's idea of economic success is measured in terms of the billions of dollars stolen from Nigeria and lodged in Western banks by public office holders. Now that that opportunity is closing, the IMF has again come forward with its alarmist postulations.

IMF should please not sit in Washington and tell us what economic success is. The price we, the ordinary people, have been paying for goods and services in the last 16 years is enough to tell us what economic prosperity really means
