Government Spends More, The People Sinks Further
What An Unfortunate Situation...
Kindly Compare the Two Pictorial Presentation of How Nigerians have fed with the Yearly Increase in Government Budget. Its Expected that as the Budget increases that the Benefits that should come to the people should also increase.
Several Years Ago when Budgets were still declared in millions, things seem OK for Nigerians with Prices of goods and services still favorable to the masses and Nigerians where a little bit comfortable But Presently Government Budgets are being declared in Trillions of Naira and instead of Nigerians getting a better deal out of this increase it just seems that we are continually sinking further and shrinking while the Budget keeps increasing,
leaving us to ask the Question. How is Our Budget being Managed, Is it being used in the interest of the people or in the interest of some pockets and Bank accounts?
IMMUNITY CLAUSE The Safe Haven For Those In Power
Several Activist and Groups in the Country has been clamoring for the amendment of the 1999 constitution by removing the immunity clause for public holders to be prosecuted while in office when they fall foul of the law of which the immunity clause had become a hindrance to tackling corruption in the country.
‘’It is now proven to be a stumbling block to the effective investigating and prosecuting of persons suspected of being connected with corruption. ‘’It is worrisome that this immunity has now been transferred to people who ordinarily have no such protection under the constitution.”
This has been the problem that has Handcuffed the EFCC and ICPC from Successfully Prosecuting Most of the top Office holders both past and Present who were believed to have embezzled some public funds or mismanaged public funds.

Can Madam Fix It All Finance Minister Help Fix Nigeria Economy
Nigeria's Economy has been struggling to catch up with that of other developing countries and this is as a result of so many negative factors that has been forced on the Economy. A country with 73% of its budget on recurrent expenditure and only 27% on capital expenditure do not encourage progress and development.
So the Task laid into the hands of The Minister of Finance, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala might seem too herculean for her to handle as the system has already deteriorated so badly that she would need to bend and search for a solution from scratch to the lingering economic problems of the nation.
The Removal of the Fuel Subsidy is one of the methods she thinks we can start fixing the economy as its believed that much money that should have been channeled into other areas of the Budget is being looted all in the name of Fuel Subsidy. If removed will help relieve the Economy of some of these problems.
The System here is quite different from that seen in the World Bank but lets Hope and pray that Her little inputs will help to at least keep the Economy Alive.
Measures To Stabilize The Naira Against The Dollar
The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Governor, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, has said the apex bank has reached the desired degree of stability for the Naira and does not have a cause to be concerned over inflation due mostly to recent stability in its core components.
He said: “When the naira reached N167 to the US dollar in October, every currency was going through a crisis. Now, we have retraced that. We have created the stability that we needed. We have stopped the panic”
Inflation rose to 10.5 per cent in October from 10.3 per cent in September, but Sanusi said a breakdown of month-on-month numbers shows that “inflation has come down on all three components: headline, core and food inflation.” According to him, “year-on-year, core (inflation) hasn’t increased which has not been the increasing trend seen in the past. Month-to-month (inflation) has been moderating and core (inflation) is also not increasing (which) would suggest that as far as non-structural components are concerned at this moment … we don’t have a cause for concern.”
The CBN governor, also, disclosed that the bank might reduce its exposure to euro and buy Chinese renminbi. He added that the exposure to renminbi might “most likely” result in arbitrage deals to the detriment of the euro.
Well Thanks that the Price is currently stable and won't go above these figures.

Falling Educational Standard In Nigeria and its Causes
The High Educational standard in Nigeria this days seems to have been lowered with lots of Issues ravaging this all important sector of any nations development.The loss of educational values is one of the factors that has left Nigeria still in the state of underdevelopment as most of its citizens are not developed themselves to tackle the rising issues and demands surrounding the nation today.
This fallen educational standard has been caused by so many factors and issues like General Corruption both in Government and Educational centers, dilapidated study centers in both high and tertiary schools, Lack of innovative and academic friendly study centers that enhances learning. Lack of Modern Facilities and not keeping up with the current academic standards in the world, recruiting of wrong and inexperienced staffs and inability to pay standard staffs, non reviewance of lecturers and staff's salary, too much negative government interference on academic issues without fully implementing most of the beneficial policies that can help and advance education in the country, inappropriate tools to measure academic standards.
The loss of parental values by most parents in checking the academic performances of their Children and wards and in giving them helping hands in sorting their ways into the next academic class or level even when their performances shows they are not qualified for such promotion or advancement. That is why we have so many unemployable graduates in the nation who can't meet the employment demands of many high and respectable organizations and companies both within and outside the Country.
Many Students Generally has lost interest in education as most of them now sees the higher institution as a place where one can just get into by whatever means and get by all means necessary that printed certificate that can only get them a job and not as a place of self development where people need to gain the relevant knowledge and skills needed to tackle most of the high demands and problems of a modern world. With over a Million Student failing the recent WAEC Exam shows that the Level and Standard of education in Nigeria has much been chattered and with even the cut off marks lowered by most institutions many students still were unable to meet up with the new set cut off marks.
Most students are being carried away by so many pleasurable things they see and feel around them and mostly on the internet and many spend hours Facebooking, Pinging and tweeting away time on Twitter and other Social Networking sites (not fully utilizing the many opportunities and advantages of the internet ) and also in entertaining themselves out with the new trends of music and entertainment programs around while forgetting that pleasure comes after labour and success after work.
The Big Issue here is where are we heading to considering all this mess in the Educational system. If this continues we will end up having a fun filled illiterate society surrounded by so many problems and economic instability that will continually leave the people and nation in a state of underdevelopment.
Here are some comments made by people regarding the comic picture presenting the falling educational standard.
