MrPOTUS: I swear. When I hear people say let's pray for our leader to be successful, I feel like running away from such people. That statement alone mean hopelessness and lack of power to of people on the government. These same set of people that dish out hopeless prayers will never come out to vote during election. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Remman: Are you talking about the same guy who crippled Ribadu and EFCC to protect his campaign bankroller, Ibori, after the Obasanjo Iwuruwuru INEC election that made him president? The same guy who got us into the P&I mess among other corrupt deals, involving himself, Turai and their cabal? The one who cluelessly reduced fuel price when oil price was rising and incurred so much of subsidies that Jonathan AND the 36 governors agreed to scrap it before Fayemi and his fellow progreThieves decided to play politics with our economic destiny? That same guy or someone else ![]() Truly we have short memories hence why we are so easily manipulated and screwed up by leaders in the political, social, economic, religious etc realms. So easily!

TINTINABULATION: Obj was the real don to have accomplished the level of economic development and social welfare he did. He was also detribalised. GEJ and Yardua simply rode on the tail wind of economic stability and reforms he started. Credit to them for at least steadying the ship. With APC, it became clear that even a leader keeping the status quo is a big deal 3 Likes 1 Share |

GloriousGbola:See this ill and poorly informed:YarAdua started electoral reforms that culminated in the little improvement GEJ further consolidated,YarAdua stopped the Virgin deal because it wasn't beneficial to Nigeria. He reversed the sale of the refineries because he clearly saw they were to cronies that would have crippled the sector or sold to third parties that could do the job,while they reaped massive profits just by selling. It's the same issue happening with the power sector now,the Gencos and Dencos sold to political associates have neither added nor improved electricity distribution by a single kWh,they all saw it as a place where they could reap massive profits without being ready or having the funds to invest. As a Northerner he nonetheless conceived the amnesty program,he reversed the kerosene subsidy removal because he knew the deleterious effect. YarAdua wasn't a "socialist" as someone claimed,he was rather a pragmatist or social capitalist,the kind of economic model practiced by European and other developed Nations. It's only the US that practices a pure capitalist economy,every other developed world practices some form of social capitalism. He replaced Ribadu not for any other reason but the feeling that someone else could do better.If he had lived and seen that Waziri wasn't doing well he would have removed her. This is the only president that lived up to the billing of being non corrupt in act and deed,declared his assets and those of his family,Openly and was ready to act on any corrupt case,no matter the person involved. Remember during his time SM wasn't in vogue,so if he had come in this era when SM was is a large part of the world,I bet he would have acted on many of the ills being pointed out in officials and appointees of his. The drawback YarAdua had was that his health was failing him,so he couldn't scrutinize what his family members and close associates were doing that was tarnishing everything he stood for. For donkey years Buhari had been shouting on how corruption was our Achilles heel and how he was going to confront it,heads on. When he gained power and was supposed to lay the simplest and basic of all foundations,declaring his asset publicly,he shirked from it. Nobody was interested in the asset of YarAdua during his time,but without prompting he declared the entire family assets and forced GEJ to do same. Forget,YarAdua 8 years would have transformed nigeria |

Remman: Giving amnesty to militants is an act of failure and an admission that Nigeria is a failed state. Today the Militants now control the oil wells. It was under his government that the leader of Boko Haram was killed. 1 Like |

Yes Nigeria would have been much more better, we can all see Katsina that he served as governor much more better today with banditry everywhere. Obasanjo just looked for a weakling he can control to handover the country to. Yar'Adua made people like Ìbòrí to escape justice in Nigeria 1 Like |

achorladey:The brain challenged one that said "subsidy is gone",one year on,show what that policy has benefitted the country.With removal of subsidy at least there should have been massive investment in the sector and fuel queues would have been a distant memory.But here we are. It's not by shouting and taking populist decisions that makes you a leader,is looking at all the factors involved and knowing the best way forward. Nigeria will NEVER recover from that ill fated,psychotic policy done at same time naira was floated. There is no other way than for government to do what it's about to do,stupidly increase salaries of public civil servants and hope the private sector,now in intensive care,can magically follow to some degree. But how can the business man or woman in that sector increase wages when their cost of production has shot up through the roof? |

Even with his little stay in power you are still trying to drag him. Compare his years in power to any past or present elected president in Nigeria. Umar mean too well for the masses and that was seeing in his little stay in office. TINTINABULATION: |

seborrhic: you know nothing dangote, oando, otedola were the bidders for the refineries all of them have been in energy for the past 20 years dangote now has his own refienry thanks to the reversal you are celebrating billions were sunk into the refineries for years in dubious turn around maintenance executed by emeka offors chrome oil . it was not until buhari came in that a proper firm was engaged to turn around a refinery that should have been in private hands decades ago Kaduna refinery has been running at billion naira losses for years. a literal money sink hole that is yarduas legacy nuhu ribadu was sacked by yardua. farida waziri was put in his place. that was the beginning of the end for efcc. ibori gave ribadu 15 million dollars in cash. ribadu immediately reported this and handed in the money. with a head like that EFCC would have been unstoppable. today they are just another incompetent bribe taking arm of the police obj made concessions to virgin nigeria. yardua reversed these concessions and virgin nigeria pulled out leaving air nigeria. foreign investors saw all these. maybe if obj had liberalized the telecommutes sector at the end of his second term, this is how yardua would have fked that up as well all yardua was know for was saving money - not investing it and the biggest indictment of yardua - the people around him who if not stopped would have run nigeria while the man was a brain dead corpse. from his wife down |

That man was our angel but death took him. The few months he was there was a period of recovery until his death. His successor had the will but there were too many powerful people around him. I pray we are not doomed in this country cos the best didn't even last. |

Odin13:Na foolishness dey worry because I didn't mention Igbos here in any negative way. I even said lots of Yorubas voted Obi. In the last election did Igbos not voted for Igbo? Is that not a fact? But because Yorubas voted Yoruba they are now the problem. Tell me how many Igbos that voted Yoruba. Most of you are too lazy and lack mental capacity to think if not you won't be saying Yoruba people are the cause of Nigerian problems. From the way you are commenting I can bet with my life that you are probably around 25 years or less, you don't even know Yaradua talkless of Obasanjo. 1 Like 1 Share |
