THE POLITICIAN COLOURED NOVEMBER 2013 | Page 21

The Chinese Yuan, Gold and Silver and the three vehicles that African nations should be stock piling and they need to substantially decrease the amount of US greenbacks they’re holding in reserve. The stabilization of the Naira is another great fete which will be credited to the Goodluck Jonathan administration. In the next 2 years we should expect to see a stronger and more stable Naira due to the solidification of our political and economic environment. Nigeria is about to enter a period of incredible economic growth and 2014-15 will see our economic growth enter double-digits, and I candidly predict that the Naira-dollar exchange will hover around the N125 to $1 dollar figure by mid 2014. That is the Nigeria that our President will leave for the incoming President in 2015, a strong Naira underwritten by a strong economy and a stable political environ. The drive to promote national unity, economic stability and political tranquillity has been the guiding star of the Goodluck Jonathan Presidency, and by the 29th of May 2015 when the President hands over the sceptre of national leadership to the Man or Woman whom God has chosen to lead our nation for the next 4 years, Nigerians would have received the complete realisation of the electoral pledge/promise that was made by President Goodluck Jonathan in 2011 when he was sworn into the office of President of the federal republic of Nigeria. Those who wondered whether President Jonathan truly meant well for Nigeria will soon have their question answered as his works would prove unequivocally that in his dispensation, Nigeria truly entered into its finest hour. 2015 is clearly on the minds of many Ni- gerians, most of whom are wondering whether President Jonathan would contest the presidential primaries and seek another 4 years in office. 15
