Every day, there are people who keep our eyes glued to our phone screens as we read their rants, opinions, perspectives on political and social matters, etc. Sometimes, they are even just downright ridiculous. We make it our job to take down the names of these noisemakers.
Here’s our list from today:
1. Oby Ezekwesili
In celebration of World Books Day today, and her father, Ms. Ezekwesili put out this tweet:
My Dad made me strike one of the greatest friendships of my life with Books. It endures through the years. No heartbreaks.#WorldBookDay

And her son responded:
My Mom made me strike one of the greatest friendships of my life with Books. It endures through the years. No heartbreaks.#WorldBookDay https://t.co/7X3Eo5oUBY

3. Joachim MacEbong
Last week, everyone was excited that the naira was making great strides against the dollar. From about 600 naira to the dollar to 430 to the dollar. But is that sustainable? Joachim doesn’t think so.
It didn't even take a week. Sustainability, sustainability, sustainability.

All the jubilation and so on was always, always premature. A cosmetic approach doesn't work.

The most amusing thing is that anyone who has really followed this forex matter, could have predicted it with ease.

By next week, without additional 'injection' or 'pumping' (defending the Naira, by another name) the gap will widen again.

This doesn't even qualify as an 'I told you so'.

4. Tunji Andrews
Because dollar is still scarce and CBN’s injection tactics are not quite sustainable, Economist and co-host of Ndani’s show, Analyse This has some ideas about more sustaunable ways to get Nigeria out of the rut and back on her feet.
We need to give investors (foreign & domestic) a dream to buy into
This revive oil production isn't inspiring at all
We need a buzz

You ain't going nowhere without oil.

This is sadly the truth. We keep looking back to oil. How I wish we could be audacious & break free. We go suffer small but be free at last https://t.co/i9fZWhldk4
