TRASH! blaming a government of 6 months old

Do you have to display that you have a low IQ? How is the OP blaming the recent government? Nah wa O. You need to go back to primary school and face your studies squarely.

End time journalist Shaka writing rubbish! The same GEJ he is praising could not fix Lagos-Ibadan expressway or Jebba-Mokwa road, among many others, for 6 years! On subsidy removal, Nigerians did not trust GEJ to manage the subsidy removal proceeds well, hence the resistance to its planned removal! They were later vindicated given the fraud and corruption that rocked SURE-P implementation, to the extent that its Chairman, Christopher Kolade resigned! Further, the rate of reduction in fuel price by Buhari government can't be based only on international crude price. Other major cost items especially freight and insurance, are badly affected by the current regime of unfavorable exchange rate. I expect the obviously cash and carry writer to get some sense, do more investigation and get more facts before comparing the rate of GEJ's fuel price reduction with that of Buhari. It is like comparing an orange with an apple!

[b] People can tolerate incompetence but not weakness - Albert Camus

GEJ lost the 2015 election because of (a) his weakness and (b) APC's mastery of propaganda

GEJ was a weak man politically, OBJ had abandoned him and he was from a minority tribe. He was desperate for a second term and was willing to let anything slide if he could get some favour. He pardoned Al Mustapha, stopped the case against the Abachas, couldn't deal with Abba Moro (David Mark's godson) or anybody else. He probably knew Dasuki was playing with our money but he didn't want to go against a prince of the caliphate. He even broke bread with Ali Modu Sheriff, the original Mr. Boko Haram, just to win favour.. The Boko Haram wahala even made matters worse
In the end he failed, because trying to please everybody leads you to pleasing nobody.

APC and their propaganda were the worst thing to happen to our system. Everything you see online or in the media is some form of propaganda. APC excel at this. I remember when Fashola was making GEJ look stupid for reducing the fuel price by 10naira. Nigerians hailed Fashola then, now I hope the dust in our eyes is clearing a bit. Mr Lai is very good at his job, he understands the power of the media in shaping public opinion.
During the elections, we all saw a large group of people in a control room tapping away at computers, those are the e-warriors who can shape online media with their 1million retweet on twitter and likes on Nairaland.

But APC will not stop at propaganda. Since Lai 'Comical Ali' Mohammed entered the seat:
-he has met with all the bloggers of repute for 'discussion'
-Aisha Buhari has met with all the social media change agents for 'dinner and discussion'

If you call a man 'thief' 365days a year, some people who know less may actually consider him a thief. During the elections, we all saw a large group of people in a control room tapping away at computers, those are the e-warriors who can shape online media with their 1million retweet on twitter and likes on Nairaland.

Did any person steal $12b in Gej administration the way ibb did?
What of the abacha loot which at the time the British govt said if that money were to be shared each nigerian citizen would get N5m!
Look no matter what you apc e-rats do the truth will surely surface! This is just the beginning more high ranking apc officials will be hunted by their lies and also start singing the praise of Gej.

Oga, please look up the word Red Herring and revert back to me.

All the talk about successes in road and yet we're not seeing the evidence on ground. In the meantime, people continue to groan about the poor state of interstate roads in the south east.

Imagine the OP babbling about power sector revolution when the last administration spent billions of dollars and yet could only move power generation to a max of 4500MW...yet they promised 10000mw by December 2012!

We should send this article writer back to adult school.

He has given you the date, the location and the title of the speech. Fashola has not denied making that speech. Maybe you are the one in need of school.

Oga travel out of your closet and see things yourself. Besides you said interstate roads, Fashola talked of federal roads abi you no know the diff? Read! una no go read. Meanwhile the minister for Power who is Fashola, your APC ogas you worship said GEJ transformation in power sector is above 50% and you are under your mother's house talking blindly. Rotimi Amaechi did same confession that he never knew Nigeria has good mordern railway system until he became minister. GEJ is not a noise maker. All those who lied against GEJ and denied all his work will all make open confession and also plead with him and Nigerians for forgiveness. Make una tell dictator Buhari who is seeing himself now as an oracle on revenge mission to remember what happend to Abacha.

Spot on..

This is an expose based on facts and the hypocrisy of our so called change agents.

God bless you for this piece sir

texazzpete:


I am obviously asking for the writer's source, dummy.
I should ask you also for the evidence that Fashola made the alleged statement, since you're here claiming it is a 'fact'


You're not very bright, are you?

It's too early in the year to dance naked publicly, have you searched the net and did not find any link to the said comments and since when did editorial write ups start coming with source from writers?

You are not grown up, are you?

GEJ was weak I agree,but altogether bad?...hell no...

On the first day of the year, I couldn't but shed tears reading this article especially the parts that touched on the latest songs from Fashola and Ameachi award-winning labels.

What can we deduce from this? Nigeria has a long way to go. The same level of deceits orchestrated by the founding fathers are
still prevalent even among new breed of politicians who should know better. This country indeed needs divine intervention. These lying politicians have failed the nation.

Weakness was his only crime

One of the best piece I have read for a long whlie.
It will now become clear that GEJ may not be a saint, and maybe he is not as forceful, firm or hard on corruption but he indeed had a good heart, and had worked in making the country better.
Post analysis of his political strategy would show he should have heavily employed the greatest medium of propaganda quite early.
God bless this impassionate piece and maybe we will see more confessions coming from the APC government about the man GEJ.
Take a look at the top 20 economy in the world...then imagine the target of GEJ administration for 2020 for the economy.
My respect for real men like Fashola and Ameachi who have risen above partisanship and declare things as they are.
History will be kind to GEJ, a nobody, a humble fisherman from Otuoke and by far a better man by comparison in terms of patience and temperament.
My respect .

It's like you have been living in Zamfara till date. Do u know where Lagos Ibadan express way is? Do you know the state of the road before GEJ came to power? Please ask your father to tell you the history of the road until GEJ came.
As to reduction in fuel price, crude oil price went down and GEJ reduced pump price from N97 to N87. After he left the price went down again by almost 60%, how much reduction did Buhari do? I know you are not a kid but you talk like one.

President GEJ might not have achieved a lot in SE and SS but I know he was still a great President.
APC are now in Power and can do to SE and SS what GEJ did for those up north who never really loved him. I know SE and SS don't generally love PMB.

Yes, GEJ didn't fix those roads you mentioned.
But did he construct all the roads Fashola has attributed to him?

On subsidy removal, you are being untruthful. Nigerian didn't want subsidy removal in any form. It had nothing to do with whether on not he would manage the proceeds. People didn't understand why petrol should be expensive in a country that produces oil

But that is exactly what the erudite Fashola was arguing! After all, according to Fasholanomics, if crude oil price drops by 50%, pump price should also drop by 50%

SCAM WHO ARE YOU DECEIVE?

pheliciti:
The writer must be insensitive to allege that 25k km was done by GEJ based on fabricated quotes. He should as a journalist be more investigative and list out the roads! If at all, none of the meagre successes of GEJ can justify the amount of theft and cluelessness of that govt. Please the writer should deal with that.
Using subsidy removal as an example, the argument now is different from those of 4 yrs ago. Now, it is glaring that with the fall in oil prices, removal of subsidy would not hurt the populace.
In the 2012 scenario, the argument was that removal would create money to fund infrastructure with the creation of SUREP. Please show us the infrastructure financed with the 50% removal (remember, subsidy was party removed) other than private constructions by the subsidy thieves and their acolytes including Thisday journalists like the writer of the editorial. Don't also forget the manner of the removal; crude was selling at record high yet those that travelled to villages were left stranded as a result of sudden pice changes.

I guess the part where he quoted the minister of state for work eluded Ur sharp mind?? Any thing that remotely paint GEJ in good light have negative effect on Ur brain

I remember vividly how the South East was insulted and called all sorts of name here for failing to join the dance party at Ojota aka "occupy Nigeria". Today we know who was right.

Am afraid they may be prooved right once more for their Buhari aparty after 4 years. Every politician in Nigeria can not be trusted, majority of them are selfish.

You can believe what you want. I can't expect you to think beyond your cognitive capacity. But then, try these elementary exercises.
1. Was any federal road leading to your house or village worked on during the GEJ administration?
2. If the quote the writer ascribed to Fashola was true, don't you think it would have been reported by mainstream media inclusive of Thisday where the writer works for as editor? Why would he be looking for a rebuttal if he heard from the horse's mouth?

Thank goodness Nigerians have come to their senses after the bewitchment of APC lying deceit and propaganda.

Acknowledging the successes of a man that they called a total failure, including claiming his victories in the war against terror is a sign that the APC 4 yrs holds only one thing for Nigerians, covering deceit with more deceit.

Welcome to APC train of 'LIES EXPRESS'.

unfortunately it is too late to undo the past. Now Nigerians have someone that will inflict pain and sorrows in their lives all in the name of change while his cronies and party members enjoys the nation wealth to the fullest.

Very correct, I love your quote which best describes your able dictator Buhari.
How much was pump price of PMS when OBJ came into power? Why did he increase the price, how old were you when fuel was sold @ N21/ltr? Was it GEJ that increased it from there to 97? What was the reason behind all the increments in the pump price of pms? Ask your uncle to explain to you then you'll even know on your own the reason for that fuel subsidy removal in 2012.Don't dabble into what is older than you.
