what do you say about jonathan using security forces to crush subsidy removal protests with some deaths resulting from that action?

Many of you people are quite silly particularly in the manner you try to justify voting for GEJ. Just imagine comparing a millitary, authoritarian rule with a democratic regime. I'm afraid that the train has left you people behind! We are in a new dispensation which requires you to explain the achievements of GEJ under this dispensation.

Its too late to hide under 30yr old millitary governments.

As far as your man goes, all I have to say is:

Good luck bye Ebelemiwa Jonathankyou for ya services, go back to Otuoke.

SAI BUHARI

And why should I believe u......I don't know you buh I know my Dad and he was very vibrant during his regime. So it's ur word against my Dad...tell me who should I believe

Life situations always appear like a coin: they always got two faces.
Buhari's tyrannical reign definitely favored some people.

Fro example, those who were on salaries, who were buying a tin of milk at N1.00 suddenly began to buy it at N0.50 would love the regime.
Problem was, the milk they bought at N0.50 was bought at N0.90 at whole sale.
While the retailers where being brutalized and jailed, with their shops auctioned, the public queuing up to buy were hailing Buhari.

Forcing down price with gun is a hallmark of tyranny and illiteracy!

Normally, you should believe your dad.

Kenai:


I think you should ask Buhari that question, the Mr. "I Will Jail All Kworrapt Fiffles".

The stewpidness in you is growing by the day, If GEJ want to jail corrupt people and looters not by using force, first is to give EFCC the power to arrest and investigate someone who they suspect, And if that person is guilty will be charged to court will give power to the judiciary to pass normal judgement... When your pay master say stealing is not corruption don't you know he is indirectly send signal to EFCC and the judiciary not to tamper with the big looters?

Buhari and APC in general are economically deficient as far as Sound Economic Policies are concerned. They actually are Socialist who believe in Big Government (More Recurrent Expenditure) and State Interventions (Economic Centralism) in state runned market economy. There's no room for Free Market in this kind of arrangement. No Investor anywhere in the world will invest in an economy where market prices are regulated and manipulated by the government. This is the exact type of socialist policy that lead to the collapse of the Soviet Union and her economy in 1989.
No country, repeat no country in this world can develope Economically with this kind of Socialist Mentally. Seriously, APC has nothing to offer.

Kenai:
This is a picture from an article in a London newspaper talking about how Muhammadu Buhari used his soldiers to brutalize traders and force them into lowering the prices of their commodities (even below cost price, resulting in massive losses) during his "Essential Commodities" misadventure.



So, now I get it. When Buhari was talking about "diversifying" our economy using the Army, Navy and Airforce, this is exactly what he was talking about - using the soldiers to brutalize citizens. This is what you get from a man with zero knowledge regarding Commerce and Economics. A man who knows nothing about demand-and-supply dynamics is too unintelligent to know that oil price is not "stabilized" using force.

I've said it and will say it again: Buhari is another NORTH KOREA waiting to happen.

End

op, did it happen during a democratic regime or military regime? These saTAN are dumber than i thought.

midolian:
Do u even hav an idea of what democracy is?

I gues he dnt knw.

Ngwakwe:


When I narrated my experience in respect to Buhari's regime, the adolescents on the board who never witnessed the regime except Internet concoctions insulted me because I touched on the deadly regime of their idol - Buhari

Bros you don't have to give up keep talking because what an old man saw from were he is, a young generation can't see it even when they claim a coconut Tree.

Op u have just displayed your illiteracy of governance in terms of military decree and civilian rule of law.
This is democracy.
He did not forced it on traders.
He only forced retailers to bring down their price who hoarded goods after the coup.
Imagine,you bought 1000 tins of Milo at #5 per tin this week,then there was a coup the following week.You the retailer now kept your hidden goods only to come out to start selling at #30...

I was not born then. Asking ma mum some questions

I was a baby during Buhari's initial shot at leading Nigeria. A one-sided story is never a balanced story, you can ask Chiamanda, she knows a lot about dangers of a single story. Most stories I heard about Buhari's were of brutality, war against indiscipline and partial justice. I haver being against Buhari because of his military background, the northern olicargy desparation for power, his sharia inclination; however, I must say that I'm better informed about Buhari now. Buhari as MR HONESTY didn't start today; also, having recognised another honest individual in Late Prof. Mrs Dora Akunyili while working together in PTF, I believe he does encourage good governance. I salute this man, he is a man of integrity.

Secondly, I think we are experiencing a déjà vu in this country; democracy breeds corruption especially when the different arms of government and law enforcement agencies are not independent and not properly enhanced/enabled to do their jobs, democracy breeds corruption when we allow corrupt minds to rule this country. Oil, our most priced asset in this economy fell by nearly 60% when Buhari took the mantle of government, but his leadership style failed because of his military methods. The questions arising now are: how will Buhari lead without the use of brute force, how will Buhari lead with people like Tinubu by his side, who will be the technocrats in his administration?
This not just a second shot for Buhari to lead Nigeria, it is a second shot for Nigerians to do things the positive way; we need to elect credible people for councilors, chairmen, representatives, congressmen, governors, senators, president into power. We need to encourage judicial equity and support law enforcement officers.
Anyone that wins the presidential election Buhari or Jonathan, neither of them will be able to move the country forward with the support of Nigerians in a positive way.

On reading the article, I see a man that warned top civil servants against misusing their offices. I see a man that ensured that merchants don't take advantage of the scarce commodities to make excessive profit at the expense of the public. Op thank you very much for the article. We need regulation in our commerce and trade sectors. Sai Buhari

And you think you can achieve all this with the help of the whip and lashes?
Bro, we aren't in the 20th century and this democracy where capitalism holds sway and it is very clear that your Buhari cannot make any of the changes he is mouthing and deceiving gullible Nigerians .

The era of flogging people to conform to laws and order is gone ,now you make laws in such a manner that it would be almost impossible to break them and when you break them you are well assured that you'd be caught and punished . This is how you run a country and not the usual soldier and police intimidation that tramples on the right of innocent citizens.

We need strong institutions and not strong men that play gods with our lives.

Help me ask d 1diots and secondly what is the name of the so called newspaper...... So many lies just to discredit APC and the General. Mtcheww

It doesn't matter because Buhari has that same plan in mind when he said he will Guard the Nigerian Economy with Soldiers on Channels TV interview.

Lollzzz.. You'll see how that can be effective when fighting against curropption in the currupt country.. Buhari cannot rule with the same system but rather with his word "Good governanace is when people are happy in their home" please kindly take a look at that news paper itself? Nd the date.. The attempt is never a selfish one, thou! He may lack the knowledge then but now he's sorrounded with intellegency, why are all these coming out now? Why is it that only the elderly that witnessed his govenrnance then love him most? Even in term of his vice (Idi-agbon) where are those looters then please? Hmmm.. No matter what nd what you may bring, we cannot vote JONAH again! That's just the fact..

Oga OP! What was the death rate then please?

We are talking about Buhari's economic socialism. Don't digress.

Kenai:


You just made no sense.



Well, newsflash: Any serious-minded country that plans to become an economic giant must thrive on fairness, hardwork, delayed gratification and a meritocratic ethos, not ROBIN HOOD theatrics.
It is this same logic of "bridging the gap" that has led to great disenfranchisement of Niger-Deltans where a lot of their oil profits are carted off to the North simply because "those people are poor", as well as the unfair Unity school cut-off marks where a boy from Yobe with a score of 2 gains admission before a boy from Anambra with a score of 135, simply because the north is "educationally disadvantaged".

If you want a strong, competitive country, you must create a LEVEL-PLAYING field where everyone lives by their own sweat and hardwork!

We told gej to diversify the economy to reduce naijas revenue dependency on oil receipts.Are u aware that the world is now going green?Are u aware of the discovery of shale oil by America?Are u aware that oil price is now less than $60 as against the $78 bench mark.Are u aware that our reserve cannot serve as buffer because of this?Are u aware that when OBJ left our reserve was $68b but today its less than $33b...do u know how much is left in excess crude acct?

Ask people to give u the answers....

I get ur standpoint plus I'm not saying Buhari's regime got it all right; what I'm saying is that we should have right the wrongs made by past regimes in terms of economic growth. I get that you are angry @ d economic approach they took buh in relative comparison to Jonathan's administration wouldn't you agree with me that the same foul, business owners cried during Buhari's regime is what consumers or buyers are crying in GEJ's admin. it's so bad that businesses can fix prices on their goods and increase it at will without being checked.

Question: is the present Nigerian economy favourable to all (both business owners and consumers)

I don't even want to discuss security as it is visibly clear the administration that did berra.

WAI and fight against corruption was also a success for the time it lasted. Sanitation wasn't joked with buh now the country is like a cesspit.

Do you know that the minister for state works Dayo warever said on channels tv Politics that 'Buhari's regime was the worst regime ever.' Is there any truth in that?

At the end of the day you have made your decision and I've made mine and we both will be responsible for our decisions directly or indirectly.

Have a lovely day ahead Sir.

That GMB is economically sound or not, basically I think he has no moral right to enjoy democracy as a platform to lead having once toppled a democratically elected government and stating that he doesnt believe in democracy but then things haven't been awesome under GEJ at all! Impunity and corruption everywhere! Slow pace of development, Security lapses everywhere.

Either way, I think none of them is good enough!

Will continue to watch to see whether finally one of either you "GMBians" or "GEJites" will convince me and confuse me less before 14th.

GarnewRed:



Thanks you my brother! You're indeed a good Nigerian, not a gullible one #nice one bro..

Thanks for the compliment, Beside this article will go so many Nigerians insight on how GMB care more for them, Why will some traders be taking advantage of the masses with the aim of selling at higher price with the aim of getting more profit.

noblezone:


When you combine tyranny with illiteracy, you have a head of state who would send soldiers to shops to force down prices instead of working on the macro economy to bring about change in prices.
Buhari recked lives of the citizens he was supposed to protect as the head of state.
What what do you expect from a criminal?

You see a man that ensured merchants do not take advantage of their scarce commodities?

You need to see an eye doctor or perhaps you deliberately twisting the tale.

Bros, the scenario was so stupid and scary!

You bought a tin of peak milk at N90. You are selling it for N100.

A customer walks in, ans asks how much you are selling the milk, and you say N100.

He goes out, comes back with the military task force.
You have broken the commandment of of an illiterate tyrant who just took power by force.
In his own price list, peak milk should be N30 only.
You are arrested and your shop is auctioned.

That is madness! Buhari was mad and I wonder if he has been cured.

Hear him, he will stabilize oil price, How?
He will use the soldiers and navy to diversify the economy. How?

You wanna stick with this dude, be my guest, but when the chirps are down, note that those of us who saw him in his dark days, warned folks like you.
Cheers.

With due respect Mr Noblezone, nobody said people should sell at loss, the amiable General only ennsured that people sell at a reasonable price and not take advantage of scarce to make exhorbitant profit at the expense of the masses. Defaulters will have their goods sold even at a minimal price. We know that greedy traders won't like the policy but consumers would. Today in our economy we see how traders play to the intelligence of consumers. Bus drivers hiked their fares unnecessarily, same with sellers of other commodities. We aren't a capitalist state, there is no social benefit to fall back onn yet, traders should trade without greed. Nuff said

barcanista:
you aren't making sense. Only thieves and greedy people criticizes Buhari's policy on trade. Thanks to Buhari our economy grew massively. It is very simple, whoever desire to make excessive profits on commodity have no business in Nigeria. A capitalist state create two class of group, the Very rich and the Very poor. The Very rich make their money at the expense of the very poor. Muhammadu Buhari policy was to ensure that business owners don't circulate poverty to the masses just for them to make more money. Again, it is a welcome development!!!

I think Nigeria is ripe for an economic debate btw these two presidential candidates.

BokoHaramm:
I think Nigeria is ripe for an economic debate btw these two presidential candidates.

That is if Jonathan will accept to debate with Presidential candidates and not musicians

this thread is an eye-opener! not just on buhari but on the nmerous IGNORANT ILLITERATES who were defending him on this thread.
i hope the oafs can come out today and repeat the nonsense they said here in his defense especially now that the economy has CRUMBLED under him AGAIN.
