5. Despite criticism of his numerous travel abroad, discerning minds now know that Nigeria is gradually regaining her battered image in the comity of nations. The president had been recognized guest in many very important international functions where his efforts were recognized as well. It is our hope that by the time PMB completes his first tenure, our image will have been further improved globally. Let me help you here. You do NOT improve your image with the international community by junketing aimlessly around the world; this method, if indeed it is a method, is prehistoric and completely deleterious. I do not know who sold Buhari this idea, or how he managed to sell this idea to most Nigerians. I live in the West and I've had the privilege of travelling quite often across many countries. At the last World Economic Forum on Africa, which was held in Kigali, I was there. I write for a few international papers on my views about the economy, youth influence and politics in Africa- primarily the first two. At Kigali, Rwanda was the darling of most persons, countries and organisations. And rightly so. Their rise, from a a horrendous genocide in 1994 in which much of the international community were ambivalent, to perhaps East Africa's main powerhouse is remarkable. Today the UN does not make plans for Somalia, the EU does not discuss with East Africa, the United States hardly does business with East and Central Africa unless Mr Kagame or his representative is there. By the way, I did not see much of Nigeria at Kigali... Much of the respect from the international community on any country is gotten from the country's internalised dynamics than the PR campaign of travelling around the world. Fix your home. Set up reforms. Set up a consistent and clear economic policy. Institutionalise governance and whatever is your government's priority and then churn out results- good, impressive results. This is what Rwanda did. That is why the plan Kagame is currently undertaking, which will extend his time in office, isn't as heavily antagonised by the West or much of the international community. BBC and CNN are yet to demonise him as a 'dictator'- their most use phrase for persons do they not like. His country is working, the people want him, so why bother to effect regime change when, quite clearly, it would not gathered populist support? Obasanjo, Ya Ardua and GEJ, for much of their bad attributes, understood these. Much of what is hailed about Nigeria in the global community today, was started by these men. Democratisation of the political space; institutionalising the fight against corruption- EFCC, ICPC; the telecommunications boom; economic stability which meant that Nigerians did not feel the 2008-2011 global recession; the banking reforms; the Niger Delta non-violent government intervention; the exponential increase in GDP figures... I could go on and on. Ask any Nigerian who lived in the West; we were beginning to get very proud of our country. I had so much invitations to speak at international panels in 2013-2015 to tell people what 'Nigeria was doing differently'. This was pride. You think the West do not know what is actually happening in Nigeria, the global community is confused by the inane propaganda churned by Mr Lai's APC? Trust me, they are not foolish. We just have a clique that wanted power so badly. Now they have it, they do not know how to utilise it. Get the homestead right. Junketing around the world and telling them that Nigerians are criminals and are 'fantastically corrupt' wouldn't earn Nigeria any respect anywhere-unless you want to delude yourselves. NB: I wrote this in a hurry. Any grammatical error is highly regretted. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Clever nit wit Buhari zombie, lamping key failures such as no electricity, no fuel, loss of jobs, food insecurity etc into one point thereby minimizing the list of buhari failures. Then rewarding his indecisiveness vis a vis Fulani with 3/10? Should have been 0/10 at best or -5/10 1 Like 1 Share |

DropShot:owkk First u said he has reduced d cost of governance. I disagree ND d budget is proof, also I don't fink 200_300 delegates ever followed d former president, show me facts if you av any.. Next in the aspect of corruption I don't think he has fought corruption 2 a ghud degree... Not until I see convictions and reasonable jail terms given to these criminals.. Dos are my points so I'll still score him 2/100 |

madridsta007: My dear bro/sis, you will live long. You will never lack for any good thing in life. This is what I always cry n scream about: Fix the home and set up a working system! Better market dey sell himself! Jumping from one country to another only exposes our soft, vulnerable underbelly to more exploitation. At the end, there is nothing gained. To worsen the situation, a president like ours will not only traipse all over the continents but still badmouth his country and its citizens or even agree to a blanket condemnation and then expect international patronage and recognition! Except for unprecedented stupidity and yet, someone tells me that's frankness and honesty!! Kai! In short, God bless you, that's all. 5 Likes 1 Share |

DropShot: Please how has the cost of Governance reduced? How much is allocated to Aso rock feeding in the "padded budget "? How much are their newspaper and barbing allowances? How much was voted for renovation of Aso rock this year? I can go on and on, but I've been informed that the VP hosted social media Ricetivists and Cashtivists, so I no wan spoil market for you. Kwantinuuu, but know that you are deceiving no one. 25/100 is a generous mark for Uncle Bubu. |

The end shall justify everything. He just spent a year and we've started accusing of not doing this and that. Nigeria is having serious problem since 1960 but the last 16 yrs was the worst of it all. To me, I can't say he has failed. |

Despite the gross failure of this government, they still deserve some cudos for efforts concerning boko haram and corruption. I still believe that by God's grace, they can at least improve in the remaining years. Buhari has proved to be very sincere since coming to office. That's why i won't attack him much. Issue is-his party promised too much in their campaigns, enough to make sure we went all out for them. They barked much more than their predecessors. The biting part is what we don't understand. |

STARGREEN: DropShot: #Hypocrisy What is baffling is d way they deflected every shortcomings of GEJ to his ministers/aids. Then it wasn't uncommon to hear "oh, GEJ is a good man, but he's surrounded by crooks", "oh GEJ means well 4 Nigeria but d ppl around him are frustrating his efforts" etc Our "pipo" didn't recognize then dt GEJ wasn't an "economist" shey? Now they suddenly remember dt 4 u 2 lead Nigeria u have 2 be an economist. If GEJ was a "good" man, then PMB is a better man; at least one believes stealing is not corruption while d other abhors corruption! Our "pipo" are so used 2 disorder {recollect #bring~back~our~corruption?} and tribalism dt whatever/whoever doesn't allow dem carry-on with their nefarious activities or doesn't speak "our language" is 2 be given d PhD (pull him down) treatment.
