What is odd about this? The biggest economy in the world,America has been running budget deficit for some years now and will continue for some time.America borrows money from other economies to get America running.When you spend more than what you take in,its called budget deficit and borrow to cover the shortfall. If you cant afford your borrowings like Ghana does at the moment,that is when it becomes a problem. Nigeria's case is not unique in the world of government.

It is not about the oddity. It is about the financial mess the country finds itself in that confounds people. With immense oil wealth, should Nigeria be running a deficit?

What is the sense in this article? If Nigeria borrows to pay salaries, should we do the same? This shows how stupid, useless, irresponsible, reckless we Africans are.

I wonder what this story is worth. Perhaps the first time I see Ghanaweb posting any international news. This is an NDC implant. But Ghana could have served itself better by thinking about solving it's deficit problem, the decaying cedi and dumsor than what amount Nigeria borrows.
