The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Major Gen Muhammadu Buhari , has said that Nigeria needs over $400bn to fund its critical energy needs.

The report also said Buhari did not include a timeframe for the spending plan but said Nigeria would need support from developed nations to bridge the funding gap, an amount Buhari said exceeds Nigeria’s energy budget for the next 30 years. With the funding needs almost matching the size of Nigeria’s gross domestic product in 2020, his statement amounted to one of indefinite goals, unachievable to him without massive outside assistance, the report added.

Give him MBuhari 700Trillion GBP, and he will build snow in Aomori City, Japan and ask for more!!!; what exactly are MBuhari's core competencies; very poor in leadership & management, bad governance, visionless, but excellent in corruption and division!!

A responsible man who borrows, has plans and strategies to pay. Can someone ask these people what’s their plants pay for these debts that will obviously outlive the president and the next generation to come?

Northern Nigeria looting asap before disintegration of Nigeria.

After you borrow the money again don’t forget the 20Billion Naira u whole Oloye Sunday adeyemo igboho.. YorubaNationNow Yoruba

Buhari needs to open graze more cows for the money!

$400bn = 400, 000, 000, 000 * 589 = N235, 600, 000, 000, 000, 000.

ThePotentate_ They don’t need $400bn all they need is a good leader

Baba they cash out

A President that cannot provide ordinary power supply to its citizens yet it supplies other African countries power supply, is that a President? The dumbest man to ever rule Nigeria in this jet age,Yoruba and Hausa people wey vote sai baba for power,how market?

U wen be Hausa goat ur full generation fit count am finish till them wipe out the surface of the earth? Nonsense u always spill

Very soon I said soon they will write to Satan in Hell to borrow Nigeria money. One Nigeria my foot

MORONS have arrived again..

Go and looking for where to borrow. Another opportunity to borrow. President MBuhari I heard that Brazil is now giving African countries loans without collateral and interest. Quickly approach Brazilian government and apply for their loan before the door closes.

The other time, Emefiele stressed that US$100bn is needed for infrastructure dev., and now this...making a total of US$500bn. I expect more additions...to the siphoning of funds in the long run

3 gorge dam (world biggest) cost $32bn. Jamnager refinery (largest capacity refinery in the world) cost $30bn. The dam can power the country nd the refinery will solve all our petroleum need. We can even export electricity and fuel with them too. Why the f*k is he capping $400bn

Hmmm nigeria is gone

Just think of a country to borrow it la. Hope $400bn will be enough? Buhari is a man without shame.

Just 'go and borrow' then beg them to cancel the debt!!!

If you want to borrow again tell us in plain terms and stop going through the corners.
