Rising from his crystal ball ,the Chief Economist of Paedia Express Multimedia Group, Professor Charles Adeiye has declared that what the nation’s economy was going through could be described as its pathway in business cycle.
In an exclusive interview with the News Office Desk ,shortly after been discharged from a Lagos Hospital where he had been recuperating  after a lengthy battle with an ailment said that this type of   business cycle could take between  20 to 25 years depending on which one as prevalent at some point in an economy.
According to Adeiye ,also of the University of Lagos in Nigeria ,the possibility of Nigeria getting back to the boom period will depend on a whole lots of factors which only its leadership ,citizens and even external forces could be fingered as lead determinant.
In an hour long chat with this reporter ,it was discovered that through the economist analysis that there were key indices or phases in every nation’s business cycle and these were the recovery ,boom, recession and depression period with each having its associated symptoms.
He pointed out that when an economy was recovering from its shock, the level of growth in the land will be slow ,with creation of jobs far and in between by enterprises while also listing other prevalent features of this phase of an economy to be sticky upward prices, sticky interests ,costs lag behind prices among others..
He warned that when an economy begins to boom people should not get carried away with its features like business confidence, employment rate, profits,costs and prices which all grows strongly  but quickly added that all this could change overnight when an economy is poorly or badly managed due to massive looting of a nation’s resources just as it the case with Nigeria presently.
He listed situations like costs being unsustainable ,marginal firms closing down ,rise in unemployment leading  to lending costs discouraging new vista in investments as the key features of recession.
He added that there was no doubting the fact that Nigeria was heading towards depression at the moment as cases of general economic decline now abounds in all spheres of national life, government Inclusive.
Analysts  ,now think that there had always being a recession in Nigeria as the common wealth of the people did not trickle down to the average man in the streets but shared out by gluttons among Abuja mandarins for years until the bubble busted out recently when it became evident that the nation’s petroleum resources was no longer hot in the international market.
In a related issue,the recent spate of riots as result of peaceful protests  over the poor economic conditions and the living standards of Zimbabweans may actually be re-enacted in Nigeria soon if the present economic conditions of Nigeria persists.
It would be recalled that in Harare,Zimbabwe,Pastor Evan Mawarire helped to recently launch the movement tagged as Thisflag ,as he tried to get his country to rally round the national identity of that nation and speak out against President Robert Mugabe.
The government blames Zimbabwe’s tough financial position on western backed sanctions and a slump in prices of its export commodities in the global market.
Checks by the News Office Desk of Paedia Express Multimedia in Lagos,Nigeria shows that there were palpable signs that Nigerians have lost patience with the Muhammadu Buhari led regime as at press time.
On the 4th of August,2016,as many as a dozen opinion sampled with 8 of them been practicing journalists agreed that trouble was not so far away.
A source told this reporter that a neighbor of his in the large compound where he lives  with other families in Lagos,Nigeria recently reported to him that his wife’s pot of soup was stolen by another neighbor whom they still do not know as at press time.
Another source confided in  by this reporter not only confirmed the rapid rise in domestic crime but insisted it was no longer news to him.
Another analyst revealed that he did not think a year will be too long for Nigerians to wait before going on a riot nationwide as he expects this in a matter of three months.
In a related issue,a source who is a civil society  told this reporter exclusively that the feelers he was getting from The Presidency,Aso Rock villa as at press time suggests that  President Buhari was very sad about the performance of some of his cabinet officials and was going to embark on a massive shake-up between now and October 1st,2016.
Believe it or not,famine has hit Nigeria,well ,if you do not believe then consider the following scenarios:
------------at least 15 people are believed to have sold at least one of their two kidneys at Abeoukuta Street in Ogba area of Lagos,Nigeria in the last 12 months
……………….Pot of cooked beans garnished with all kinds of ingredients was reported stolen at Olufemi Ajayi Street off College Road,in Ifako Ijaiye area of Lagos couple of weeks ago though the identity of the thief was not revealed to the News Office of the Paedia Express Multimedia but we are tracking the situation
However,it was gathered as at press time that the woman involved in the incident claimed that her husband had deserted her and her three children and they had not eaten any single meal for three days prior to the incident.
………………fried fish was reported stolen from a steaming pot of soup at a restaurant in Idiagbon Area of College Road in Ifako Ijaiye area of Lagos,Nigeria
………………….Eba was reported to now being dipped into plate of oil palm mixed with salt as victims did not have money to prepare any form of big budget soup.
