I have followed politics actively for about 10 years of my life and if there is something I have noticed, it is that, contrary to what people think, Nigerians don’t want Nigeria to progress. We had an election with the electorate pitching their tent with their preferred presidential candidates for whatever reason, whether rightly or wrongly. An election was conducted and a winner by the name of Buhari emerged. One would have expected the right thinking Nigerians who had badmouthed him whether rightly or wrongly, to give up and support him for the betterment of Nigeria but trust Nigerians to take the hate a notch higher by castigating every action that the president takes. I noticed the same thing with Jonathan’s haters just few months after he assumed the saddle of leadership. These characters are praying and hoping fervently that the president fails, so that we can hear the ever popular retort of reminder “Shebi I told you”.

This guy has barely been in office for one month and his campaign mantra was one of change and despite the fact that I didn’t buy the whole change shebang that the APC presented, I kinda had the belief that BUhari had something in him to make even if it’s a minimal change. I’m eagerly waiting for him to name his cabinet but I’m not so much in a hurry because I don’t know what he has up his sleeves. Let’s just stay calm and allow him work. Atleast after 6 to 12 months, we can start appraising his progress. Until then, let’s stop acting like uneducated spoiled children whose toys have been taken from them. If you love Nigeria like you claim, give this nigga a chance to prove himself. If he fails, we will all keep him out like we did by Jonathan but if he succeeds, our country will be better for it.

Okay.
The court has taken judicial notice.

God Bless Nigeria!

We are like Nigerian parents. We teach by scolding.

Buhari will never do any meaningful thing without scolding

Scolding unnecessarily?

denko:
Buhari will never do any meaningful thing without scolding

GOOD ONE!!! You are One Right Thinking Nigerian.

Mr Afam4eva,
Buhari's success or failure will not be determined by the number of people and the number of times he is bad- mouthed.
It will be determined by his own actions .
A citizen expressing his misgivings does not mean he wants him to fail.
The sheer number of dishonest post, lies and articles online also means that the onus is on buhari to write the narrative with openness and truthfulness.
Doing nothing when some dishonest persons are posting lies online is foolish.
If at all , you should be complaining about the wardrobe allowance and how Nigerians are not doing anything at a time when they should have put the National Assembly under siege.
If you asked me , I would probably vote to scrap the National Assembly altogether and make do with a council of Chiefs( traditional rulers) .
At least traditional rulers have their thrones on the line.

Buhari's performance is not dependent on the number of social media supporters or critics.... he should get to work.

However your statement might be true for a fair society but definitely not Nigeria. We are fundamentally flawed along regional and religious lines, ethnocentrism is our bane of coexistence and our patriotism ends in our regions.....

Until we embrace federalism, it can only get worse.

major props OP!

Ok

op...kindly remove the 'n' word from your post. It is demeaning and insulting to the office of the President of Nigeria.

I'd advice against using it at all considering its racist origins.

OP don't judge by what you see on nairaland, the people fueling this bad-mouthing are paid party supporters, their aim is to convince the unsuspecting people to think the government is no good just like GEJs. Their interest is simple; they want relevance. They have little or nothing to lose if this government succeeds, afterall the party will keep paying them to keep up their opposition, but they have all to gain if their party comes back to power. So do not be deceived, majority of Nigerians are not online, they're simply yearning for good governance that will benefit them, the ones being antagonistic are the party agents and supporters.

CBC:Lai Mohammed and the APC

Bless you brother. Some of the Tanoid here are people who lost in one way or the other (job, contract, appointment) as a result of this administration. They are so pained.

dissent and criticism are the hallmarks of democracy and APC thrived on it. The goal post can not change because APC is in power.

It is up to Buhari to prove his critics wrong.

I make no appologies when I say I will not be disappointed if Buhari fails because I really don't expect much from him.

Those who came to the conclusion that 2015 Nigeria cant do better than a 72year old former dictator should check into the nearest psychiatry

the North is full of people that could have made a modern President. It did not have to be Buhari

Afam4eva, stop wasting your time. We are who we are. I don't think any amount of persuasion and cajoling would change our mindset.

Afam4eva:
I . If he fails, we will all keep him out like we did by Jonathan but if he succeeds, our country will be better for it.

This is where Nigerians are making a big mistake. So u think ur vote counted and will ever count when we have the world known master rigger in our country.

The same happen to GEJ
even after Nigeria was declared the biggest economy in Africa some haters didn't see any good thing out of it.

you don't expect a core GEJ supporters to clap for Buhari its not done.

that Naija politics for you

This guy has barely been in office for one month and his campaign mantra was one of change and despite the fact that I didn’t buy the whole change

@Afam4eva

You called our President this guy and wants me to exonerate you from his antagonists

Progress to the north? I laugh in Arabic, exactly what they did to GEJ is what they will get. Nigeria progress indeed
