Yoruba has been offiially made as the Slave to the North, and they are the problem the south have in particular and nigeria at large.

DaBullIT:
There are ministers for a reason

The President can only do so much


and he's offering Nigerians their opinion

as usual , they do not want to give opinion , they want Buhari gone , so as to return the man from their region


this is about hate and making the tenure ungovernable for the current president


Guess what , After Buhari , its Osibanjo


and Buhari still has 3 years and 5 days more

What exactly are you saying or what do you intend to say? too childish to comment on public fora

i did not wash any of these write up in any nation television neither did i here it from any credible news media. Pm news my foot. Kanu will get justice if that is what the writer would want us not to believe

Wait a m unite, is this not the cabinet he use almost 3 months to select, and some zombie here were defending him as being careful not to make mistakes. Believe it or leave it, Buhari is the mistakes Nigeria has ever made.

ABOUT five years ago, my decision to endorse retired General Muhammadu Buhari given the constraints at the time, was based on the promise that he would make a great civilian President of Nigeria. I scripted a widely circulated glowing affirmation of his candidacy. Based on my estimations, there were appropriate inadequacies associated with the other candidates that made them unfit for the job. Nuhu Ribadu, Goodluck Jonathan and to some extent my friend Dele Momodu were all contenders. In all of the criteria that I applied to evaluate the candidates, the one that made President Buhari stand out was my conclusion that he would still be interested if the job had no pay and without the shine of the office. President Buhari, after serving in several “juicy” positions in Nigeria was not publicly known to be a billionaire. The assumptions that led to the conjecture are still very logical in spite of his lopsided preference for appointing mostly northerners in his kitchen cabinet. Despite Buhari’s calm but implicit support for the out- of -control Fulani Herdsman, I still rate his intention to preside over the world’s most populous black nation as an honourable one. However, from where things are today, one year later, it does not appear that honourable intentions alone will be enough. Ribadu’sunpreparedness Jonathan and Ribadu were not nearly ready both in experience and individual capacity to preside over the delicate and complicated affairs of Nigerians. Dele Momodu reportedly made an unstudied decision to join the presidential race in acknowledgment of Babangida’s conclusion that Nigerian youths were useless. I did not pay any attention to both Babangida’s contrived conclusions and Momodu’s sanguine response. MUHAMMADU BUHARI As President, Jonathan accomplished practically nothing. He successfully engraved his name in the elite club of those who served a few and failed Nigerians. As far as Nuhu Ribadu was concerned, it will always be safe to remain apprehensive of any product of the Nigerian Police. Ribadu’s EFCC was an effective tool that nearly succeeded in substantiating Obasanjo’s inordinate and destructive third term ambition. Almost all of Ribadu’s success stories as the executive chairman of the EFCC have question marks. Unlike the United States or other western countries, Nigeria’s maturity have not got to the point where any Rick (Ribadu), John (Jonathan) and Dave (Dele) could roll over their beds and aspire to become the President of Nigeria. We do not have self -sustaining and functioning institutions that can mitigate the impact of ineptitude. Organising elections and offering the elected and their acquaintances endless prospects to do as they wish is not one of the main steering doctrines of democracy. Today, with the luxury of time, I should have vigorously endorsed NOBODY for President. The theory of half loaf being better than none is no longer acceptable. Nigerians do not need a President to officiate the status quo. What we need is a reformer who will work diligently to construct a political and social landscape with flourishing ideas and enhanced rules of engagement. If we have any odds of surviving, we must make sacrifices to forge a union where there are no ethnic or tribal interests at the federal level but only a Nigerian interest. My endorsement based on his frugal lifestyle in comparison to others may have been valid from a simplistic viewpoint but the passage of time has rendered it grossly inadequate. I take full responsibilities for my colossal blunder to provide a comprehensive analysis of Buhari’s experiences, antecedents, qualities and capabilities in direct comparison to Nigeria’s intractable problems. After one year in office, I have not seen any evidence and I do not think that Buhari has demonstrated what it takes to be a successful President . He has shown no desire or ability to challenge the needs of today and by extension is deplorably failing to persuade our hopes and aspirations for a brighter future as a people. We may no longer be experiencing brazen stealing directly or indirectly sanctioned by the presidency but there are fears that financial improprieties and manipulations continue at all levels of this government. Where the legislative oversight is broken down or nonexistent, it is the responsibility of the presidency and the National Assembly to repair or initiate one. The idea of a Finance Minister authorising the National Security Adviser through a letter to disburse funds not appropriated by the National Assembly based on the verbal order of the President should never be repeated. No one is suggesting that the current National Security Adviser is freely disbursing funds but the probability of another “Dasukigate” repeating itself in the future is still a possibility. It is one thing to apprehend a thief but it is more important in any establishment to shut down the loophole that facilitated the undesired situation in the first place. Nigerians have not been provided any evidence that this government has made any stride in tightening the internal controls within and outside all government agencies. The Minister of Information would have burnt his fingers when he turned to the National Broadcasting Service to secure a loan. The checks and balances along with the controls have to function to serve the people with or without any President paying attention. President Buhari and the APC have to come out publicly to tell Nigerians how much was spent on the last presidential election in addition to the sources of those funds. It will be reckless to buy into the current anti -corruption hogwash campaign. My biggest fluster with President Buhari is his disimpassioned attitude towards the daily killings and maiming of Nigerians. It was not enough to issue belated statements three days after the massacre in Enugu through a proxy. Also, the convenience and safe passage of the Army Chief of Staff should not be a justification for the massacre in Zaria.Our fellow citizens were slaughtered and the presidency remained silent. The other day a terrorist bomb went off in Brussels airport killing about 30 people and the whole world literally came to a standstill. Human life in general and Nigerian lives in particular should be inviolate. The right to life is the uniquely fundamental right on which all other rights are based. Regretful acknowledgment Following this regretful acknowledgment, other Nigerians who also packaged and sold Buhari to our fellow citizens should please stand up to be counted. This apology will not be complete if I failed to recognize one Nigerian who consistently predicted where we are today. His name is Remi Oyeyemi. Remi was right and I was wrong. To the ten or so Nigerians who relied on my endorsement to support and vote for Buhari, I say I am deeply sorry. I did not set out to mislead anyone America was founded as a nation under God but it appears Nigeria is a nation under gun. Our commitment to Nigeria as a nation is at best suspect. Nigeria is more divided today than it has ever been in my lifetime. On a daily basis, President Buhari has consistently shown lack of vision to initiate and implement a strategic plan to unify the country. Honest restructuring of Nigeria A lasting unification and national renaissance will emerge from an honest restructuring of Nigeria. Economic prosperity will undoubtedly be an organic byproduct. Those who defend Buhari’s frequent foreign trips are the ludicrous who represent the unpropitious in our nucleus. An Army General with a strategic vision retired or serving should secure their territory before embarking on any offensive. Buhari should have embarked on a listening and working tour of several States in Nigeria without any fanfare. The industrious men and women in Aba deserve a little encouragement. The kids growing up in Maiduguri need positive encouragement and assurances that there is more to life and all that it offers. A united and vibrant Nigeria does not need any selling overseas. The world will notice and there will be long lines of potential genuine investors. The other day, President Buhari signed the 2016 budget and declared that better days awaited Nigerians. It was packaged and sold as a budget of hope and change. A few days later,Nigerians are moaning under the choke of higher petrol price. I have no doubt that Buhari is passionate about making Nigeria a better place. My assessment cannot be wrong and I do not believe that he was shedding crocodile tears the last time he cried after losing the election. I am not convinced that both the body and spoken languages of President Buhari will bring any lasting solution to any of our numerous problems. This president and future presidents will almost certainly deliver similar results that we are all too familiar with. The political and social architecture in addition to the rules of engagements need to be revisited and redefined immediately. Those who preach that this or any other President must be given time to deliver the dividends of democracy are simply delusional. We do not require any time to plan and begin the process of national restructuring. We do not need time to begin to ask ourselves the very tough questions that needed answered.

Yet APC scumbags on nairaland were screaming new sheriff in town bla bla bla

They know anything.

tomakint:
The economic challenges of Nigeria under Jonathan then and Buhari now differs slightly why? Jonathan government went into massive projects that cut across aviation, roads, agriculture, education, power generation, electoral reforms, etc all these requires more money being injected into the economy but for the "hawks" in his government Nigeria would have been the better for it by now.

However, as a listening President, Jonathan having noticed the evil grips of the hawks in the oil sector decided to abort subsidy but what happened? He was shouted down and forced to rescind that decision while PMS was pegged down to N97 from the initial approve N112. Now Buhari is here now, agreed the global oil price that dictates the live of our economy had been on a downward trend and Nigeria is losing money to attend to many pressing challenges but a proper briefing, education of the populace would have been the best but what do we have now? A sudden N145 price for PMS from an N87 left by Jonathan in an already tensed economy.....yet nobody is protesting but rather defending Pastor Tunde, as much as I like you, I disagree totally with you on this.

God bless you.

instead of the administration to go back to work, they will be blaming past administration. from the statistics report above, it very clear that the bad economics policy by this administration that is plugging Nigeria to economy recession. Even the oil price they are using as cover even did well the quarter under review, the problem was from Non oil sector due to wrong policy on Forex. Blind supporter of the Buharist over to you.----Zombies

mrvitalis:

Supporting and yet u complain about bad economy

The 25 years is a lie, it is just not possible. It is the lowest quarterly decline since June 2004, not 25 years and it is expected to plunge prior to release.

Keep quiet, must you defend every thing. go and play defense for Arsena

Buhari tot every body fear him. he is just a national disaster

We have never seen this type of insicurity in Nigeria. what is Buhari doing about all this nonsense. Let this man just resign.

Insecurity every where, Buhari, Buhari you are really a dulard. All what you boasted of are all zero

No side of this PMB government is good at all. Market women are crying, employer are sacking, labour are protesting, Niger Deltan Avengers are bombing, Fulani Herdsmen are killing, APC are telling lies, the rich cannot access Forex, the poor are getting poorer, hunger every where, darkness every where, fuel are increasing, Millions of graduate in Labour Market, business owner are closing shop, employer are angry, Noting is working ETC. I call on PMB to just resign or National Assembly should as a matter of urgency impeach this man before it too late my humble opinion.

Only NDA are doing their own you people are crying. by the time the deadly Igbesu water Lion start, body will tell bohari. only a fool his roof will be on fire and will still be playing ludo

Maser:
Most of the idiotic cowards hiding behind keyboards and running their mouth on social media and applauding this destruction of our country are abroad. The stupid ones at home liking their posts get to bear the grim consequences of the outcome of such a dangerous development. Nigeria is in darkness for days now but those ones abroad enjoy 24/7 light. Of course PMB will always have light in [b]Aso [/b]Rock. I watched Syrians in diaspora encourage the ones at home to challenge Assad, today most of the rebels are in their graves and the few lucky to be alive are tired of war and want peace at all costs. The idiots in the diaspora are still couched in the safety of foreign lands enjoying their lives, hardly sparing a thought for the dead.

you voted him so that he would have light alone abi? A husband who cannot provide for his household is was than infidel. it seems all of you are now clueless and helpless. i tot when Buhari become president he would crush every form of criminality. what is he still doing? if Nigeria Army cannot do it he should put on his uniform and go to creek and fight. emty brain with high Ego, old cargo calling himself fearless. Let his body language save the situation.

this old Cargo call PMB look clueless and helpless. you will regret ever being the President of Nigeria if you dont change your way.

I fear military taking over this Government of PMB very, very soon. what hapen in 1984 is about to repeat itself.

This is what injustice can cause, this is what you get in a country where some section feel they are borne to rule others are slave.

MrDavidson:


The same "weak but noisy military" is the one currently bringing BH to its knees. Time shall tell. ND militants are not invincible.

which Bokoharam, the one created by APC lead by GMB. Even the BOKO Haram leader confirm it in his last Video were he was quoted saying "he has done his own part and he has finished the work they sent him. which work did he finish? making the country ungovernable for GEJ. Get this clear, no body defeated Boko Haram, they have finish their work by making the country ungovernable for GEJ thereby installing their man. mission accomplish the same with Bring Back Our Girls. Time will tell.

ChukwuIbrahim:
Ee nor gor better for GEJ for helpin us 4rm d niger delta in wastin our portion of 6 yrs rulin.

Same to you and your generation unborne

Buhari should resign without delay if he have integrity as they claim

APC E WARRIOR, WHERE IS THE MAJOR SET BACK IN THAT YOUR WRITE UP. WAIT TILL WEDNESDAY. CONFUSED APC LOOKING FOR ALL MEANS TO CONFUSE NIGERIANS.

Nigeria Army is a learner were Niger Delta Militant is operating. is Buhari more Military than Obasajo? i learnt that Buhari was a Junior officer to Obasajo.

This present day EFCC, they will be the persecutor, the judge and the mouth peas of the accused person. Waste of it some Nigeria still believe all this nonsense. Since they are been saying Dansuki say this, Dansuki say that, bring this man to court to come and testifer before the court, Federal government refuse to bring him to court. The same with this Shakarau, you just arrest a man and started saying it no political. Buhari should tread with contion

Let wait

Officers of the Nigerian army this morning stormed Oporoza, the traditional headquarters of Gbaramatu Kingdom again in early hours of Sunday(today) in search of Niger Delta Avengers’ members.

They combed the area and Five members of the group, one of them is believed to be their leader.This is coming after members of NDA bombed another oil facility belonging to Chevron Nigeria Limited. The military has invaded Oporoza twice this week.

An Army officer who pleaded anonymity stated;

“Members of Nigerian Army captured five members of Niger Delta Avengers, one of which is believed to be one of the leaders of the dreaded group. Following the bombing, we established a wide perimeter and initiated a high security search.The suspects were taken into the custody of the army in the area, but are yet to make statements or admit if they are members of the Niger Delta Avengers or otherwise. They have been relocated to the 19th Battalion, Nigerian Army, Koko, Warri North.”

The activities of the Niger Delta Avengers has caused Shell’s Forcados terminal to shut in about 250,000 barrels of daily exports; and breaching an offshore Chevron facility in the 160,000 barrels per day Escravos system.
