When you lot stop wanking and swallowing cum from his name

this APC online rats have no shame.
boko haram has skyrocted since the Daura President took over.
Nigeria is now a laughing stock with the creation of western Germanyb y the dullard.

Meiji:
First, I think it's an insult to Nigerians to describe President Muhammadu Buhari's administration thus far as an "indisputable success". I understand your dire need to make Buhari and APC look good so as to justify your political stance, but resorting to undeserved platitudes to hoodwink gullible Nigerians into thinking that Buhari is the best thing since sliced bread is, to say the least, deceitful.

Now, let's address the substance of your post.

1. Increase in Our Foreign Reserves:

Anyone with half a brain knows that the movement in foreign reserves is a function of supply of and demand for currency of the host nation (in this case the naira) versus other foreign currencies. Now what affects the level of foreign reserves is the level of inflow (which comes from sales of crude oil as well as other export commodities) and the outflow (which involves the use of dollars by the CBN to purchase foreign currency, which is then used by importers to pay for goods and services imported into the country). It is important to note that the foreign reserves figure has been falling for so long because the CBN was making less inflow (i.e. sale of oil) versus the outflow (i.e. importation of goods and services including refined petroleum products). So what CBN simply did was to come up with a policy to remove about 41 items from the list of products that it was going to finance importation for (see this link for further details http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/understanding-cbn-s-forex-market-restrictions/213868/ ). What the CBN did in effect was to save foreign currency it typically used to finance imports, thereby reducing the strain on the foreign reserves.

It is extremely deceitful of you, Mr. Emefiele or anyone else to tell Nigerians that "leakages were plugged". Meanwhile I hardly need to tell you that the underlying problem of the falling Naira as well as the widening spread between interbank and parallel market rates (Google this up) remains unaddressed.

2. Bail-out Package to States:

It was an extremely short-sighted decision by the Buhari administration to bail out states (which got into trouble as a result of their own recklessness, anyway) without any conditions whatsoever. The "bailout" was simply an endorsement of financial recklessness and mismanagement.

In any case, the banks which the states are indebted to have seized the money so I doubt the 'bailout" will achieve its intended objectives. Can hardly be called "indisputable success" can it?

3. Modest Success Against the BH Terrorists:

It beats me how you would on the one hand call something a "modest success" and on the other call this administration an "indisputable success". Does this make sense to you? What kind of "success" has been recorded when the rate of loss of life has been greater since Buhari came in than under his predecessor? Do you think the over 800 lives wasted by Boko Haram since May 29 are mere "statistical figures"?

In addition, this isn't the first time that Boko Haram has resorted to suicide bombings. It befuddles me how BH suicide bombings under Jonathan were a "sign of a failed presidency" but is now "sign of desperation and frustration from a group facing impending defeat". You'll have to explain that to me.

Also, Buhari DID promise to end BH within two months, as reported by barcanista. That he later retracted himself does not invalidate the promise that he made.

4. Serious Undergoing Efforts to Recover Our Stolen Money:

Again it is ridiculous to state that "serious efforts" equals "indisputable success". Can you, Mr. PassingShot, tell us exactly how much has been recovered, and from whom? Also, when are we going to begin to see serious prosecution of the "thieves" from the last administration? With all the figures Adams Oshiomhole has been peddling around, shouldn't Mrs. Okonjo-Iweala have been arrested or at least queried by now?

When funds have actually been recovered and the thieves sent to prison, please be sure to let me know.

5. Refineries now Working:

Nothing to say here, Buhari himself has said he cannot take credit for the functioning refineries. https://www.nairaland.com/2460862/cannot-take-credit-revival-refineries

That leaves us with the past administration, whether you admit it or not.

6. Improved Electricity:

We've been down this road before. We can't talk about "improved electricity" until the "improvement" is sustained all the way to the dry season. Besides, you'll really have to explain to us how Buhari "improved" electricity without a Minister of Power.

7. Nigeria Image Boosted:

Another insult. How has Nigeria's image been "boosted" specifically? Were you on hibernation when the Obama administration flayed Buhari's "lack of preparedness" in the recent US trip? Or is your assessment based on Buhari's recent trip to Cameroon?

You really have to justify Buhari's "indisputable success" when even the most basic of Buhari's electoral promises are yet to be fulfilled. Buhari has not declared his assets publicly, he has not stopped Boko Haram within two months, he is yet to start feeding primary school children, he hasn't started paying unemployed youth and the elderly N5,000/month, he has not started paying corp members one year allawee, he has not taken any corruption case to court not to mention securing a conviction, he is yet to recover a kobo of stolen money, yet you call him an "indisputable success? Joke's on you, Mr. PassingShot.

Anyone who has the ear of the president should please inform him that he is yet to start fulfilling his electoral promises. He should get to work because no excuses for non-performance will be tolerated. After all, we (quite rightly) voted out Jonathan for non-performance.

Abeg let me stop here. I'm tired of typing.

[i]How do you make such comparisons?
These guys are miles apart,

Passingshot is not worthy to be mentioned in same phrase with Barca, forget the likes on here.

PassingShot:
May I hereby call on Lalasticlala, Ishilove, Obinoscopy and Seun to kindly help propagate the "work of God" to the promised land please..

chukwudi44:
Modest success against boko haram indeed!!! Some people surely have no shame

xcolanto:


This poo don't deserve FP! Your pay masters should retrieve every dime they paid you and have you pay more for this trash you spilled out here. You should really get a job and a life while at it. You lots are beginning to sound like the dura born when he opens his mouth. Pathetic I tell ya!

hinwazaka:
first and foremost I must state that your writeup is the next thing to a joke
The increase in foreign reserves is simply due to the cut back in the importation of goods by denying foreign exchange to importers. While this may appear to be effective in the short term it has dismerits in the long term such as rise in smuggling activities, sharp rise in prices and also inflation. This will be brought about by the fact that local production can not meet up with demand

The much publicised bailout has not yet come into effect. Your very own governors stated this fact at their NGF forum. What transpired was the distribution of monies recovered from the NLNG and shell tax. Also bailouts are not always effective in the long run especially when the economy is not favourable, check the US bailout story of 2008. This eventually ended up as a failure when consumer demand and the real estate market failed to kick into gear

Modest achievement is an understatement for the massacre that greeted the Eid el Fitr holidays. There has been no gains by this government concerning the Boko Haram issue. The army don't yet have a strategic plan that encompasses intelligence as a means to gain a slight advantage
Also there is actual footage of PMB stating that Boko Haram activities will end two hours after his inauguration. He said it on channels TV on Seun Ogunbanjo's programme. Channels TV repeated it in their hourly newstrack program two weeks ago

PassingShot:

Yeah bro. Keep fighting the truth in your mind. By even making this statement, gifted minds know what you and your likes battle with within your heart.

Otherique:
OK passingshot,
Let me tell you a thing or two about Barca.


I have read him on here tear GEJs administration into shred even though he's Ijaw,

He takes on people based on their promises and how much they've kept it,

He knows when to quit being a sycophant,

He's much more objective in his analysis and people, including you learn from it.

And trust me, unlike you, he is not a bigot.


Barcanista wouldn't insult me for posting this if he were to be passingshot but you are not barca, so I expect your bashing.


Have a great day.

@ OP: I really don't know what to tell you. Pls,do not create threads just to counter what someone else said against Buhari. When you want to create threads,try and write something that makes sense in it. Remember that not everyone on nairaland,is a m0ron or zombie. I'm really trying hard to find a word to describe the garbage you wrote up-there.

luvmijeje:
@passingshot, God bless you. There's a saying that if tomorrow will be sweet, one will start knowing from today.

How I wish the President knows the degree of goodwill he have among ordinary Nigerians. Everywhere I go, people are just saying this man will be the best President Nigeria ever have, even among those who didn't vote for him.

I know he will perform going by what I've seen so far.

PassingShot:
I will appreciate anyone with contrary opinions to come forth with them. Let us debate in a civil manner for the purpose of educating some of the forumites here.

Thanks.

donbrowser:

I agree with you on some points but
No politician is clean
And BH issue has not in any way improved. Their mode of killing doesn't matter, the death rate does.

OrlandoOwoh:
Personally, I love this "one chance" that Buhari has put me in. If Buhari could record this success without a minister, it means Jonathan, his ministers and special advisers did nothing.
Nice one, PassingShot.

patrickmuf:
Passingshot, pay no attention to the detractors, haters, tribalist, ethno religious bigots, propagators of half truths etc
The fact that they're here in their numbers wailing like never before is a pointer to a thing, you really hit a nerve...Long may it continue

INTROVERT:
as expected.....

let me read

PassingShot:

No politician may be 100% clean but we need to rely on what we know of each of them to make judgement. For PDP to say Buhari is a clean man speaks volume brother.

I believe there have been some success with BH especially within the last one week. Anyway, let's hope the situation continues to improve.

When we ask for evidence, the Vanguard paper that is brought forward has NOTHING to buttress the lie.

donbrowser:

I won't argue further about the BH issue.

Do you mean APC?

MizMyColi:
GEJ neither built power plants, maybe.

But there were reforms, which have resulted in the Discos you see today.

I'm well aware too that billions of Naira have been pumped into this issue of power generation.

I read this thread and I feel an insult to my sensibilities.

When Barcanista created his thread on this matter, I did not comment directly on the topic. I had my reasons.
I felt that the man Buhari needs more time, despite the huff and puff he employed during the campaign period, however, Barca was on point.

But to see a thread claiming some hogwash unrivalled
success?
Dyamn, you guys just know how to force a person's fingers even when they don't feel like it. Don't you?

SeverusSnape:
I said it, I said he will create a thread to defend Buhari and it happened, I must be a prophet!... I knew PassingShot was coming with a counter after the blow you zombies received from barcanista. Eiyaa...No wonder they attack barca, and leave the message being passed across.

Anyway... Since Presidiot Buhari took over;

1. Bokoharam attacks has skyrocketed since the present administration took over, I don't know why Buhari don't want to tackle them head on, maybe because he's sympathetic to their ideology. Do you remember these famous declarations.
* "An attack on Bokoharam is an attack on the north"
* "I will continue to support the spread of Sharia throughout Nigeria".
The above statements were all made by Buhari.

2. The Naira's value has greatly plummeted, The Naira is being exchanged for #245 to a Dollar at present. But Buhari said he will make a Naira equal to a Dollar.
**waiting**

3. We have become a laughing stock in the comity of nations because of the senile man running the affairs of the country, Imagine a president creating a new country of 'West Germany', A president who doesn't know the meaning of "inclusive development", A president who doesn't know the meaning of his party. (disregard the OP's seventh point, It's all hogwash)

4. The Liar OP still went ahead to credit the working of the refineries to Buhari, even after the man has denied it. That's to tell you the kind of propagandists that are found in APC.

5. He said power supply has improved, Yes, that is right. Now help me ask him which power plant Buhari built since he took over in may, Has he appointed a Power minister?... No!. Has Buhari drafted and implemented any power reform...No!. Besides, we are in the rainy season and the water level in the dams are high, This will naturally result to an increase in power supply. As a matter of fact, the improved power supply is as a result of the past administration's power reforms. PassingShot is a pathetic liar, believe him at your own peril.

6. Since Buhari came on board, It's been further Northernization of the country through his appointments and actions. There's no need to talk much on this, It's glaring even to the zombies.

7. The present government has turned governance to a joke, Like I said before, It's now a PHOTOCRACY not a DEMOCRACY.

Bonus: He said foreign reserves has increased, Yes, Why won't it increase??...Buhari has not embarked on anything tangible like capital projects, contracts, etc. So it's bound to increase.

I'm not a fan of writing long epistles like Gbawe, so I'll halt here. Over to the wanking Zombies.
