You are a clown even clowns would deny.

Alhamdulillah. Thank God for delivering us from PDP's pledge of 2016.

I stand by it that had GEJ won the election, our refineries wouldn't be working even in 2016. It's a route we have traveled many times with GeJ/NNPC.

How can a govt that said it categorically in March 2015 that refineries can't work earlier than 2016 now lay claim to this achievement? Here is the link of that promise http://nationalmirroronline.net/new/refineriesll-be-back-on-stream-2016-nnpc/

PMB's no nonsense is what made NNPC to put its acts together. Good name is better than gold and diamond.

firstEVA:
Sai Buhari, the president whose body language gets things done

TheSonOfMark:

It's GEJ's achievement.

Buhari can revive a refinery in two months but he can't stop Boko Haram or salvage the naira's abysmal plunge?

The same Buhari that has been more outside the country than in it?

The one whose only achievement is updating pictures?

You are a clown even clowns would deny.

fallskyed:

this is the good work of ex president, goodluck jonathan..

But he kept quiet over all his good deeds and plans for the nigerian pple...

idolda:
Thank you GEJ

liberty300:
Thank you GEJ

They blame GEJ for corruption, insurgency but won't blame him for refineries and polio vaccines.. Tell us howrefineries are built in 2 months and boko haram can't be stopped in 2 months as promised

handie:
Ehya. Buhari enjoying the fruit of another man's(Jonathan) labor. God pls may another man not enjoy the fruit of my labor. Take it or leave it, Nigerian refineries started operation in Buhari's tenure. Power generation reached an all time high during Buhari's tenure... Na who read na him serious, who pass, na him know book. All the same, thanks to Goodluck Ebele Jonathan for setting the foundation.

1. The past administration's goal was not to get the refineries working.

2. According to Diezani, they were better sold off.

3. The 4 refineries needed just N99b (after as usual), but the past administration would rather spend trillions on importation of refined products, waste billions on flights and similar sorry things, while our refineries were purposefully left at averagely less than 15-20% functional capacity for years!

4. The non-working refineries meant merry business times for beneficiaries of it's near demise. From oil-swap frauds to subsidy fraud, while the rest of us bear the brunt -- from severe fuel scarcity, to drain on Forex, in effect, strangling of the Naira resulting in hyper-inflation, and ultimately impoverishment of the people.

5. The extent of GEJ's complicity is less known (at least to me).

6. The past admin would not have taken the TAM serious, nor initiate it's commencement in Oct. 2014, if the elections weren't coming up in Feb.2015 (see it's approach to Boko Haram in the build up to the elections for comparison).

7. If the past admin retained the presidency, it would have been business as usual and more of the same.
Even the earlier proposed completion date by NNPC (April, 2016), would have been nothing but some pipe dream, in lieu of this earlier completion dates -- cause 'there's a new Sheriff in town'.

8. Contrary to some comments on here, it is actually possible to complete a TAM in 30-60 days or thereabout! TAM took roughly 100 days or thereabout at the Warri refinery in 2000, even though a sizeable portion of it was also affected by fire!

9. Most of the parts needed for the TAM for the PH refinery have actually been sitting locked up in containers at the Onne port for months before now!

10. All the enumerated above are 'facts' carefully researched, vetted, and stated without any sentiment. If you do have any contrary opinion, kindly state it with facts, and not your personal opinion. #welearneveryday

"I cannot take credit for the revival of the refineries because I have no input to it, if I say I had a hand in it, it will be a lie and I cannot tell lies."
~President Buhari said on NTA Towards a Greater Nigeria anchored by Omotayo Omotosho."

Please this is the internet age. Kindly post the link to your source of these carefully researched and vetted facts, so we can read and verify. We can no longer swallow such stories hook, line & sinker. Most of the comments masquerading as 'facts', have often been found to be nothing more than a figment of the imagination of some folks.

Even PMB has refused to take credit for the revival of the refineries. He said it live on air during a TV programme. I guess you were busy watching a football match on another channel during that time, and you missed it. Even NNPC came up to say they had spent 9 months working on the TAM. Was PMB in power, 9 months ago??

Please see this link and watch PMB declining to take credit for an achievement that cannot be linked directly to him. Some of you are hell-bent on making the man into a deity of some sort, despite the guy's misgivings.

Read my comment again with an open mind.
BTW, I actually did post links on similar comnents I made from before . . . that aside, most points I made are easily verifiable. #googleisurfriend

If you have a problem with any of the enumerated, kindly prove me wrong.
Now, I need to tell you, some of my info are not online intel -- I actually have friends and family who work at both the Warri and PH refineries

If you did go thru my comment with an open mind, it was in no way about PMB being the one who commissioned the TAM, rather, my comment was about the rot (which even the blind and deaf can attest to), and also about the sense of accountability in the air and fear of punishment driving all ministries, arms of government, parastatals and individuals.

laudate:


[i][s]Are you for real??! Google throws up hundreds of multiple entries for every phrase typed into its' search engine. Some of them are not necessarily accurate, or even directly related to the subject. So saying Google is your friend, is akin to sending someone on a wild goose chase! You may have to sift through tons of material to get something directly related to the subject at hand, despite the refined number of searches you undertake. If truly your comments are verifiable, please post the exact links to the exact articles, journals or studies that bear witness to your assertions!

Is that too much to ask??!

Secondly, you make sweeping assertions and snide comments about a person's motive and character ....and you expect us to just take your word for it! Chai! Do you think your online audience are a bunch of dummies?

Your claim that some of your 'info are not online intel'. I laughed when I read this. So why did you allude to them, when you had no way of substantiating such info in writing? Only folks on an ego-trip do such things.

Guy, take a chill pill. [s]You are not inside GEJ's head, so stop ascribing evil motives to everything linked to him[/s][/s].

989900:


You'r trying too hard, but you are not reaching.

What part of the listed do you have a problem with, and state why with facts; that was my assertion -- simple.

Anyone can have an opinion (wrong or right); draw skewed inferences.

laudate:


Why are you taking panadol for this kind of headache??

There is no need to get touchy, just answer the question and post the links. If you recall, I quoted where you stated that you had " carefully researched and vetted facts,". All I asked was that you post the source of these so-called facts!

Instead of posting the link, you turned round to claim that "Google is your friend," and asked me to make a list! Wow!

Let me ask again: "Are you for real?"

989900:


Are you gon' pay me tuition?

Respectfully sir, I do not owe you any form of education.

I'll repeat, kindly state which of the enumerated is false; with facts . . . then the onus . . . would be on me.

I don't get paid to do this .

You can't say I'm wrong or lying for the sake of it. Make a list of my falsehood or fabrications in the previously enumerated.
I'd have to write a book and post what, north of over 50 links just for you?

laudate:


I am going to say this very slowly ... because I know you have a problem with comprehension.

Your former post stated that you had "carefully researched and vetted facts." That is the problem I have with your post.

Now post the source of those facts, so those facts can be verified! Why is that so hard for you to do!

I guessed as much . . . 'nada', zilch.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday expressed regrets over the sale of two of the nation’s oil refineries, which was concluded before he exited office in 2007, but was reversed by his successor, the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua because he succumbed to pressure.

Obasanjo said this in an interview on Channels Television yesterday.
The former president said business mogul, Aliko Dangote, leading a consortium of investors, had paid $750 million for two of the refineries, as the federal government considered it difficult managing the plants at the time. He explained that instead of Yar’Adua consolidating on the sale so that the investors could revamp the refineries, his successor succumbed to pressure and reversed their sale.

TheSonOfMark:

It's GEJ's achievement.

Buhari can revive a refinery in two months but he can't stop Boko Haram or salvage the naira's abysmal plunge?

The same Buhari that has been more outside the country than in it?
