Everytime you spend your money on a foreign product, you are watering your neighbour’s farm – Reno Omokri

Listen, the Naira is now floating. That means the Central Bank of Nigeria is no longer defending it with $1.5 billion monthly as we have been doing for the last 40 years. If you and I want a strong Naira, we must defend the Naira with our consumption habits. If you are not using Glo, don’t come on social media to insult Tinubu. You can’t be part of those sending $20 million to South Africa and India daily through MTN and Airtel and blaming Tinubu for what your actions caused.

Insult Tinubu with Glo so the Naira can blow! Which country can have a strong currency if its people are crazy enough to spend $20 million on a foreign service that can be provided locally? Isn’t it funny that a person goes on TV dressed entirely in foreign-made clothes from head to toe and proceeds to lambast Tinubu for the drop in the value of the Naira? We do not seem to understand cause and effect. Imagine your father has a farm, and you don’t water it.

But you water your neighbour’s farm. Yet you criticise your dad for not having a bountiful harvest. Does that make sense? Everything you spend your money on a foreign product, you are watering your neighbour’s farm. Shoe from Italy, shirt from Hungary, tie from Germany, suit from Turkey, and the only thing you have for Nigeria is your criticism. How won’t the Naira fall?

People throw about the term ‘decolonisation’ left, right and centre. University campuses say they’re decolonising curriculums, and corporations – the workplace. But true decolonisation is a question of land, sovereignty and self-determination. Today, three countries in Africa – Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger – have taken revolutionary steps towards achieving just that. They have booted out Western troops stationed on their territories and torn up exploitative contracts with multinationals. Now the trio is pushing ahead with building nuclear power plants, ...
