New 'currency', new census: Buhari's desperate quest for a legacy (Vanguard)

By Olu Fasan. FOR most of his seven-and-a-half years in office to date, President Muhammadu Buhari ran Nigeria with such insouciance that suggested he ...

He’s the first president, in 20 years, who authorised the redesign of naira notes and the first president, in 16 years, who would conduct a census. The mischiefs that the “currency redesign” aims to tackle, such as inflation, counterfeiting, money circulating outside the banking system have existed over the past seven-and-a-half years of the Buhari administration, and if it’s hoped the measure would revive the economy, well, it’s certainly too little, too late! Which brings us back to the currency redesign and population census. President Buhari rightly receives credit for signing into law bills that languished in the National Assembly for several years, such as the Petroleum Industry Bill that was unsigned for over 10 years, the Companies and Allied Matters Bill that gestated for over 30 years and the first-ever Competition and Consumer Protection Bill. Economists use the term “value for money” to refer to something that is well worth the money spent on it. Two such “projects” are “redesigning” the naira notes and conducting a population census.

Poverty wins, Buhari loses (Guardian)

Some political promises are difficult to keep. The nature of politics induces political leaders to make promises they know they can.

Politics makes promises the staple of diet of the game. The man who believed he took on poverty and won, now confronts the bitter truth that he took on poverty and lost the battle rather woefully. Our “galloping population growth rate” imposes on the Nigerian state more mouths to feed, more young people to educate and more young people to provide for in terms of job opportunities. We have all the grades of the poor in our country. Our galloping population makes the president look like someone who has problems with keeping promises to the people. We now have a National Social Register of poor and vulnerable households, identified across 708 local government areas, 8,723 wards and 86,610 communities in the 36 states and Abuja.” The wanton destruction of lives and property, the uprooting of perhaps millions of people from their homes and the loss of their means of livelihood and who now live in the internally displaced persons’ camps deprived of economic activities, the desertion of farms by our peasant farmers for fear of killers and kidnappers with the obvious result that we produce less food locally, the disruption of commercial and social interactions because killers, bandits and kidnappers are the lords of our roads – all these point to the fact that the president sees the realities with blinkers on. Rising prices have pushed an estimated 7 million Nigerians below the poverty line in 2020 alone.” If we do not have enough food or if the available food is priced beyond the reach of the majority of the people, the low food import bill itself would avail us nothing. In his broadcast to the nation, the president said that the various intervention programmes of his administration had made Nigeria a new, self-sufficient nation – a nation now able to produce enough food to feed itself. He promised to take 100 million people out of poverty in ten years. You are not about to hear it from me that President Muhammadu Buhari has clearly failed in one of his core promises dear to the people: wrestling down poverty.
