Nigeria Is Finished If Buhari Remains For Another 4 Years - Peter Obi by CilicMarin: 8:09pm On Dec 23, 2018 |
Peter Obi, vice-presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), says Nigeria’s economy will keep “bleeding” if President Muhammadu Buhari remains in power for another four years. Speaking in Lagos on Saturday, Obi made reference to the 2019 budget Buhari presented to the national assembly on Wednesday. According to him, Nigeria will not survive if Buhari’s goes ahead with plans to tax “poor Nigerians,” in line with provisions of the proposed budget which is largely focused on debt servicing. “We need to know where we are going as a nation but with Buhari at the helms of affairs, we do not know where we are going. Buhari is not in charge of this government as he does not know or care what the poor people are going through,” he said. “Nigerians are currently the poorest people on earth, yet the Muhammadu Buhari administration of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is still looking at taxing them the more. “Take look at the budget presented by the President a few days ago and you will see that it does not give anyone hope instead, it tells us that we are still where we have always been. “A quarter of the budget is meant to service debts, and that is about 60% of the budget while the President keeps telling Nigerians to tighten their belts because of the harsh times staring at us in the future. “Does that give anyone confidence in this government? Not at all, I dare say. While presenting the budget, he said that the government is looking for ways to tax Nigerians the more. What are you taxing the poor people for? “Does that give any one of us hope in this government? That means that if we keep them for the next four years, we are finished.” Outlining what Atiku Abubakar, PDP presidential candidate, will do to “reverse the situation” if elected to power, Obi said focus will be placed on reviving small and medium enterprises (SMEs). He said Atiku’s administration will restore investor confidence and improve ease of doing business in the country to stimulate economic growth. “We know the situation looks gloomy but we are not scared of going in to salvage the country. The situation with Nigeria is like an accident victim. The first thing to do in such a situation is to stop the bleeding first by applying first aid before the real treatment,” he said. “Unless the right steps are taken to stop the bleeding, we will still be where we have been for years. “It’s going to be difficult but we know where we are going and what we are going to do. To put the Nigerian economy back on a sound footing, we have to take a holistic look at SMEs because only then will you rescue the dwindling economy. “We need to change the way we do things in this country if we ever hope to come out of this economic quagmire we have found ourselves in. We must change the way we do things in this country or we will continue to grope in the dark.” https://www.thecable.ng/nigeria-is-finished-if-buhari-remains-for-another-four-years-says-peter-obi/amp?__twitter_impression=true 73 Likes 10 Shares

Well, that's the bitter truth. Nothing will remain to salvage in 2023. Another 4 years for APC will set Nigeria back to 1950. 341 Likes 32 Shares |

Of course Obi is right though the content of your post is different from the subject. Allowing this herdsman in Aso Rock to continue to rule this country will be a simple panacea for disintegration of Nigeria because there will be next level of hunger and joblessness. 218 Likes 19 Shares |

What Peter Obi-Wang-Lie really meant was that we will witness another Biafra agitation/resurgence after Atiku's loss. This should be music to the ears of Biafrans because that would be a dream come true. 18 Likes 2 Shares

Can you imagine this fool. According to atiku, if buhari wins, herdsmen killing Will continue. Now his running mate is telling us if atiku doesn't win, Nigeria will divide. So democracy is no longer about winning in an election? It is about threat. No wonder atiku wasn't willing to sign the peace pact. Make una continue with the threat, I have this feeling that both of will land in jail. Try nonsense and get nonsense. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

Baba your propaganda died a long time ago... Shit don't work no more Modified: So the Moderators just changed the heading themselves and took it to front page without banning the mischievous op abi? Nairaland MODs una try well well oo una try. Fellow sane nairalanders, let's for equity sake and fairness kindly demand this OP gets banned for peddling fake news and breaking rules 7,8 and 9. If they don't want to do it, let them just come clean to us that they are now an APC platform then we'd rest our case. 41 Likes 4 Shares |
