Fawklicant: I asked you simple question. Who did we put in office to address the burning national issues? Me, you or APC/PDP? And when the so called burning national issues are not addressed, who do you hold accountable? Me, you or APC/PDP? Answer my question or shut up |

LordAdam16: and people will still make mistake either to vote pmb or atiku ...also someone not voting does not negate the effect of another voting, respect or perspective therefore doesn't count only action, therefore voting is key & nothing is impossible, my submission |

Of what use has been our long-lined grammars and foreign. phonetics when our certificates, degrees and exalted educational pedigrees has not helped to make our society better and deliver true home grown development to the Nigerian masses. Education is of less profit when it cannot be used to transform and better the lots of the people. VOTE DEBO MARTINS VOTE PROACTIVE NATIVE INTELLIGENCE |

Lush100: Voting is not key. It is not a crime to not vote. You absolve yourself of all blames when you don't support or vote for anyone. And then you can criticize constructively regardless of whose axe is gored. And you have little or no sentimentality for anyone because you stood under the sun to vote him/her. Part of the reason why Buhari is doing sh*t and getting away with it is because of how loudly the media and most vocal people draped him as the savior of Nigeria. No matter how you spin it, it is difficult to continually criticize someone you voted for. And that brings me full-circle to my main point. How is it that the same people who voted for GEJ and then started lampooning him for everything 9 months later with the Occupy Nigeria protest are the same people who voted for PMB and are now giving excuses of why they're in their turtle shell more than 2 years later? HATE, HYPOCRISY, DOUBLE-STANDARD! -Lord 1 Like |

LordAdam16: It was a mistake to argue with you. You are deluded and not in tune with reality. In your words nothing is wrong with Jonathan and was the best thing that could have happened to Nigeria. GEJ was a disaster. That's why he was booted out of office. Buhari... He is a disaster and he will be booted out of office too. Stop using Buhari's failure to measure GEJ performance. Against good standard both of them are failures. Governance is about us,Nigerians, and not about GEJ and PMB. For almost 20years after democracy, what do we have to show for it.NOTHING 1 Like |

bigass: I have posted facts there. Now can you rebut anything I stated above with facts? No wonder you were deceived to vote for Buhari in 2015. Facts are there, freely available, yet you wouldn't do yourself and your descendants a favor to read them. And if you say we have nothing to show for almost 20 years of democracy, then you should migrate to North Korea. Clearly, you were either born in the 2000s or you've been living under a rock. In virtually all indices, we were better off in 2015 than we were in 1999. ALL INDICES. If that's the definition of NOTHING to you, you should tear up your PVC. You're doing great disservice to the nation by casting a vote. Keep waiting for that Messiah that would transform Nigeria to Singapore in one tenure. Or that would magically end corruption in one fell swoop under this current system. Since 1999, we've been having better leaders in continued succession. OBJ was better than all the previous dictators joined together, even tho' he had his faults. Yar'Adua was better than OBJ, despite his faults. GEJ was better than Yar'Adua and OBJ, despite his faults. Then people like you who are intellectually handicapped decided to reverse the trend and go pick a dinosaur. For example, OBJ declared that election was a do-or-die affair. Yar'Adua came and acknowledged that the election that brought him in was not free and fair. GEJ declared that his ambition was not worth the blood of any Nigerian. Then you guys went to vote someone who said he'd soak dogs and baboons in blood. And you think you're normal upstairs. Clap for yourself! -Lord 1 Like |

LordAdam16: Ok. I have heard you GEJ was the best president. OK HE was even flawless. He met a reserve of $67B but left $29B even with Oil selling at more than $110 bbl. Crude oil theft was at its highest in his regime. GEJ was mistake that should have never happened. PMB is also mistake that's should not happen. We cant become Singapore in a term but we are not on track at all. We can never get it right till the end of this world. |

bigass: Here's a paragraph from my reply: "Since 1999, we've been having better leaders in continued succession. OBJ was better than all the previous dictators joined together, even tho' he had his faults. Yar'Adua was better than OBJ, despite his faults. GEJ was better than Yar'Adua and OBJ, despite his faults. Then people like you who are intellectually handicapped decided to reverse the trend and go pick a dinosaur." Since you evidently have issues with comprehension. _______________________________ GEJ did not meet a reserve of $67B. When he was made the President due to doctrine of necessity in Q1 2010, reserves was less than $43B. When he left, it was at $29B. But you did not note that as at October 2014, it was at $37B. And the CBN used $5B between October 2014 and January 2015 to stabilize the naira rate, as the oil price crashed harder. More importantly, you do not note that under GEJ, when revenue increased, the reserves increased. Look at the chart below: Link: https://tradingeconomics.com/nigeria/foreign-exchange-reserves Look at how at the height of the oil boom, the reserves almost hit $50B. And if you're too frail mentally to know why reserves fell when revenue did, it's because under GEJ infrastructural and other expenditures were up. He wasn't just sitting on petro dollars not knowing what to do with it. He used it and his achievements speak for him. You need to use your brain more often and read information that's freely available. ________________________________ There is no government in Nigeria that is immune to crude oil theft. Even today it's still ongoing. In fact, here's a Sahara Reporters article that shows that crude oil theft is as high today as it was under GEJ. http://saharareporters.com/2017/09/26/nnpc-iocs-and-crude-oil-theft-curiously-nobody-talking-about-it-anymore-ifeanyi-izeze And it interestingly details the conspiracy of silence about the ongoing crude oil theft. And gives the big reveal of perhaps the biggest reason for the crude oil theft under GEJ, which Diezani helped unravel thanks to the audit by a contracted firm. Here's the highlight: The company, Molecular Power System, a due diligence company, was engaged to provide technical data (records of crude oil and liquefied natural gas lifting in Nigeria as obtained from the NNPC, and landing certificates at global destinations) to verify possibilities of non-declaration to the federal government by multinational companies. Again, read and inform yourself. Your brain is not in your head for aesthetic reasons. _________________________________ We were on track. Don't be a dimw*t. In 1999, our debt to GDP ratio was above 63%. In 2014, it was 10% (in 2017, it is 18%). In 1999, our GDP was $35B. In 2014, our GDP was $568B. And let's not talk about employment rate, industrialization, infrastructure, and several other indices that are better today than in 1999. ____________________________________ How will we get it right when dumbitos like you can vote for someone who said he'd stabilize world oil price? And you think you're smart. Just look at the nonsense you've been spouting so effortlessly. Pray tell if you can counter any of the facts I've shared. I'm waiting. Lazy educated illiterates who can't read. Easily swayed by unsubstantiated hullabaloo. -Lord 1 Like |
