    Your stupidity is just unbelievable. The level of indebtedness is classified as huge or alarming based on the size of your economy. The Nigerian economy is over 400 billion dollars, so a debt of 6 billion dollars is no news. ...

    Who told you? Stop displaying your miserable ignorance here. Nigeria’s economy is never 70 times that of Ghana, not even 10 times. Take advantage of the free SHS. Go to school.
