Kobojunkie:

see brain fart talking . . . . Oh . . . dumb one, there is no such thing! The locomotives themselves came in last year, I believe during the time Yar adua was still in a coma and the whole country was still wondering which way forward. ROFLMAO!!!

The contracts were awarded to independent entities and eventually completed by these private bodies during the yar adua administration.

May the spirit of the dead punish you for attempting to steal from one of theirs with that nonsense you have there.


ROFLMAO!!

Kenny_G:

So what if he tries to arrogate the glory to himself? if people are quick to crucify him for the past sins of pdp, some of which he probably knoew nothing about why shouldnt he follow suit

PapaBrowne:

I have done my research Mr! You provide me with your own proof and I will gladly vote for the General. I was almost getting persuaded to vote Buhari until I watched the NN24 debate!

Kobojunkie:

But . . , he is mostly crucified for HIS OWN PAST SINS, as well as his present, not that of others, in the PDP.

I mean look at River's State Governor Rotimi Amaechi, and Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime, these men are PDP members but you do not see people crucifying them for past crimes, do you? Matter of fact, these men are praised daily because they have shown themselves different from the usual flock. Jonathan, on the other hand hasn't, so don't you think it make sense for people to crucify him then for his past sins, as well as his present, against them, especially as a member of the PDP flock? Or did you think it was all for what SOMEONE else did?? ROFLMAO!!!

You know what, you deserve it! The next time someone steals your idea and sells it as theres, I hope you be happy for em!

ROFLMAO!!! the way some people take dey think ehn!!! ROFLMAO!!

Kenny_G:

by all means crucify the man if and when it is deserved, but equally praise him when it is deserved

Kenny_G:

^^^and who was yar adua's deputy? how are we sure the idea was not GEJ's in the first instance? so you mean to tell me that though 90-95% of the work had been done by the late president the 5% GEJ was involved in is that intangible that the deal couldn't have fallen through?

Kenny_G:

Ok Ms Kobojunkie i can tell u are not GEJ's fan and nothing i say is likely to make you at least show some objectivity so its best we park this conversation to one side, 

Kenny_G:

^^^ abi o, funny how people on one hand claim idiagbon was the brains of the 84-85 team yet they are keen to tout buhari as the saviour

GenBuhari:


considering  that Buhari came into power in 1984 and was overthrown 1985 he reduced inflation from 39% to 5.5% whichis actually a reduction of approx 90%

Do you still doubt Buhari?

Forget about Buhari's debatiing skills, he is not a talker, he be na action man

PapaBrowne:

Buhari ruled Nigeria from January 1st 1984 to August 27th 1985. The inflation for 1984, the only complete year Buhari spent in power was the about the highest the nation had ever seen throughout its existence at 39%. That 1985 experienced dramatic reduction in inflation can be attributed to Babangida for all I care as he took over power and initiated new policies that were pretty favorable until 1988 when the SAP effect began to hit!! You can't give Buhari sole credit for 1985 when he spent just about half the year as president. He should take full responsibility for 1984.


The diagram below shows how the PDP government we loathe so much grew our economy astronomically since 1999. Nigeria's GDP shrunk under the Buhari Government and you can see it also from the diagram.

kodewrita:

PapaBrowne, My own interpretation is a bit different.
I see the effect of war on GDP at the beginning.

I can see a country in hiatus under babangida oscillating about its lowest mean since 1980.

I can see the net effect of Democracy on GDP.

And finally, at the tail end,  I can see the effect of the Yaradua-Jonathan presidency.

Correct me if I am wrong

10cirenoh:

Gosh!!! people can fit lie.


"For Nigerians who will be voting for PDP at any level in next month elections; may all your lives be RUN the way the PDP has been RUNNING Nigeria for the past I2years, AMEN"-- ABS UMAR

PapaBrowne:

How about your own life be run the way CPC members like Mohammed Abacha ran things with all the mafia style executions and massive lootings he perpertuated!!

10cirenoh:

Is Mohammed Abacha Muhammad Buhari? why are you thinking upside down? i was expecting you to say Muhammad Buhari, but you failed because you know deep inside of you that the man ruled Nigeria well

Was Mohammad abacha ever in a CPC government? has he taken any position under cpc so far so good?

Shame to you and all of the PDP apologists.

GenBuhari:

papabrowne,
either you are completely unaware of  basic economics and the damage that the Babaginda regime did to our economy or you think you are talking to a bunch of 5 year olds here.

When Buhari took power he met an inflation rate of 39.6% , when he left in the tail end of 1985 (approx Sept 1985), inflation was 5%, Buhari left the our exchange rate at N1.00 =$1.00

Please tell me how you could attribute the inflation rate in 1985 to IBB who came in at the tail end of 1985 and whose policy of devaluing the Naira by 1,700%   would reduce inflation??


Finally PDP especially under OBJ may have had high GDP due to the accident of record high oil prices , but most of the money was looted, PDP could not even provide electricity or reduce crime.

You can not argue with cold hard facts my friend.

PapaBrowne:

why did the size of our GDP fall throughout the duration of his regime??

The inflation rate you talked about- 39.6% is not what Buhari met!! From your figures, Buhari met 23% inflation rate and after one year in office, he had risen the inflation to 39.6%. You are the one who provided those figures and they are there for every one to see!!
I am an economist and I've more than enough data to show that Nigeria's economy under Buhari was a mess!!

All these put together are some of the reasons Nigerians were jubilating when IBB took over power from Buhari!!

PapaBrowne:

Why did you then say PDP?? Why not GEJ!!

Now let me say a prayer for those voting GEJ:

May your life experience  the same astronomical rising like that of Goodluck Jonathan.
May you move from you present position to the zenith of you career just like that of Good Luck Jonathan
May the favor that hit Goodluck Jonathan hit you even more!!!

10cirenoh:


May all the lives of PDP supporters be like that of how GEJ has managed Bayelsa and Nigeria since 1999.

I expect you to say AMEN to this or is this not okay enough?

Kenny_G:

^^^hehehe i thought i called time out??

10cirenoh:


Now let me repeat it again

May all the lives of PDP GEJ supporters be like that of GEJ has managed Bayelsa and Nigeria since 1999.

I expect you to say AMEN to this or is this not okay enough?

EzeUche_:

The GDP has grown astronomically under the stewardship of PDP. No one can deny that. Much still needs to be done, but it could have been done a lot worse.
