Eluwilussit:


How does your post answer op's questions? Can't we for once, be honest and straightforward? This is not about Jonah anymore, but about pmb and his electoral promises. If indeed there's a change in nomenclature only, with regards to the office of the First Lady, then shame on pmb.

I know it will not be easy for him to deny his wife a chance to shine, but honestly, some of us actually warmed up to him, due to this and some other promises. Anyhow, I am sure it will still be better than under pej.

Seamareggae:
Most people that voted Buhari.. Did so because Jonathan was incompetent and lacked vision.. To compound it all.. He had no leadership skills..

God bless Buhari...
God bless Nigeria...

Nigeria shall be great again...

godoluwa:
bro, buhari has achieved his dream(becoming president/northernocrazy). expect disappointment from buhari & his broom waving party if u dnt wanna be disappointed

bellras:
What is your headache about that?
If you dont have a job why not apply to the office of the first lady and smell yourself. It is not a business as usual and whatever your motive for writing this rubish shall not materialized. PMB will succeed.

Oh danm it !_Why don't you bore a hole in your head and let the sap run out.

Lies and myths are regularly woven around leaders,but that of President Buhari is getting too frequent to be useful.His mythopoeia proceeded him into office and the fantasies fashioned about him are being currently employed to oil the flagging wheels of his presidency.His adoring followers have long believed in him with faith akin to religion.

Y'all(followers) take him as a god character whose perfectly sculpted essence must be protected and whose transcendent persona must not be scraped with the sharp edge of public opinions.Y'all therefore knit fantasies and myths about him like pink pills to be swollowed regularly to ease the reality of the demystification that inevitably occurs in the political sphere.

franciskaine:
that's your opinion, pessimism is not in my dictionary, I voted Buhari for a beta Nigeria and the beta Nigeria I shall get before 2019.

kelot:

And I guess Buhari is competent, has vision and has a leadership skill right? I don't know where he kept them because so far I have not seen any of the aforementioned qualities in him

Abugab:
Op, don't bother yourself too much.
The office of the wife of the president will exist till 2019. Does Mitchell Obama receive or carry out her activities as wife of Barack from her home?
The office exists but the waste and undue influence has been drastically reduced.
That was the change Nigerians voted for.
Its either you ship in or ship out.

‎“The Office of the First Lady is not in the constitution, so there’s no official role for them,” 

These were the exact words of general Mohammadu Buhari prior to the 2015 general elections. 

http://dailytrust.com.ng/daily/top-stories/42969-i-won-t-have-office-for-first-lady-buhari



When he announced that the office of the "First lady" will cease to exist  if he won the elections three things Happened :

1. Those who saw the office as a waste of public resources switched camps and aligned with him ‎

2. Those who saw the  "overbearing" influence of the former first lady screamed the messiah has come!!!!

3.those who simply wanted GEJ out because of his wife found a leader in the retired general.  

Believe it or not that statement gave him a good number of votes 


However,   Like the Promise of 20,000 megawatts vanished with a simple statement from Lai Mohammed and the Public assets declaration metamorphosed into an APC promise, the pledge not to have an office for the first Lady has all but disappeared.

The Punch Newspapers this week reported that unknown to public the Hajia Aisha Buhari who moved into the Villa before her husband had since  taken over the office of the first lady with full parafenlia and retinue of aides. 


http://www.punchng.com/news/aisha-buhari-takes-over-patience-jonathans-office/

The deception was further taken to another level when the President secretly appointed Hajo Sani as Senior Special assistant for an office he promised not to entertain under his administration.
 Even when confronted with the facts Femi Adeshina and Garba Shehu were unable to provide explanations as to why they refused to announce the appointment until it was leaked to the public.
The only change that has taken place is the change in nomenclature from first Lady to Wife of the President. 

This post election change  in behavioural pattern raises a lot of questions

1 . Does changing goal post after election amounts to obtaining votes by false pretence?

2. Does re defining electoral promises by one party after hoodwinking the other party  to do its bidding amount to a betrayal of trust ?

3. Does a man who could not keep his own words have the moral right to ask others to do so ?

Why will a President who has previously declared an office unconstitutional turn around to allocate public funds and appoint senior public officers to an office that he promised to scrap? 


For the antagonists I have these few words....

This thread is not about Wailing far from it 

1. It's about asking a Party and an individual to keep the Promises and pledges they made to Nigerians 

2. It's about asking a man who many claim is a man of honour to do what is Honourable 

3. Is about asking all those who chanted change to see beyond party sentiments, ethnic or religious affiliation and stand for the truth even when it hurts


May God continue to Bless Nigeria and Nigerians

OP I also noted DAT u said Buhari Appoint Assistant to the office.... From the various news source there is nothing like that ooo...The head line goes by "Buhari Appoint Senior special Assistant to Mrs Buhari", and in other captions thats how it is there is nothing like "Buhari Appoint Senior Special to the office of the wife Of President or Office of the first lady"...
If you have a news source DAT say so pls post here let see it with our eyes..

DLuciano:
u have not made any point. are u saying obt alias obtaining by trick is no longer an offence? buhari has deceived many gullible nigerians into voting him to power. for every promise he has made, he and his aides now re-interpreted to mean something else, perhaps he just read what tinubu wrote as manifesto without unnderstanding it. zeal without knowledge is death.

ochejoseph:


My brother this is not about Wailing it's about been sincere and keeping promises one willingly makes !


And for those who asked for the link to the appointment here is it

why will you quote me a thread on nairaland. Anybody can use Any word to open a thread here and attract comment, views and front page... And even what u quoted was not even saying office of wife of the President... Pls am waiting for reputable evidence

AnanseK:
If you are not happy with Buhari as The President wait until 2019 you have another chance.

But if you can't wait....you have the suicide option..

ochejoseph:



Daily trust is reputable here is the congratulatory message for the SSA admin. Page 54. August 14th

oyetunder:
Needless fault-finding political missionaries. These accusations are just mere grammatical misadventures. The truth is that many who are against Buhari are busy waiting for him to fail...expecting and wishing buhari to fail is a sign of mental degradation. Some nigerians don't mind if Shina Rambo becomes a life presido in naija so far they are benefiting from his administration. This piece is just a tale full of sound and fury signifying nothing.

Op, u try but so far I avnt seen or read any official statement from the presidency on this issue the office but only read Buhari appoint senior special Assistant for his wife... Has he no right to appoint Assistant for his wife? Even state Speakers wife has Assistants not to talk of Governors and others... She is d wife of the President for God sake and she has function to attend to also and u should know there is no law DAT says she is not entitle to an assistant, so why d fuss about dis.. I don't think Buhari broke any promise here nor do I see what appointing an Assistant to d wife of the President has to do with what u Ar trying to paint..
