  4. @AbahoEarne The monetary squeeze is meant to achieve macro economic stability or control inflation but it is stifling growth
  5. @AbahoEarne Expected growth for last financial year is projected at 3.2%, the worst in 26 year

  15. The democratic development does not follow a continuous rising curve like the growth of a human being. It is a kinf of snakes and ladders
  16. Yet democratization is a long journey whose results come by the crip rather than a gallop
  17. Many of those who followed their revolutions expected democratic institutions to flourish immediately the Ben Ali and Mubarak were gone
  18. Tunisia and Egypt are suffering from the frustrations that come with democratic over expectation...
