Don't be disturbed. Keep calm.

Even the most ardent but rational critic would accept the fact that with all the happenings in the country presently, there's too much problems on ground that needs urgent attention before he can even settle down to work on his promises.

But God is in control sha.

Yes. We are patiently waiting. But the accusations against him are pilling fast too. And on top of it is tribalism. I voted for GMB, I voted for a Nigerian president not a sectional or tribal leader. So if the rumors are false ( which I pray they are) he should start delivering on those promises above.
God bless Nigeria.

You fell for those silly lies he made during his campaigns.... This Dauran's too old to do anything as you've seen...and heard that there is a limit to what he can do at his old age...!

The Age shouldn't be an excuse for failure to keep promises, besides he is our president so due respect should be given to the office, however as Nigerians we need him to start delivering on his promises.

When he was the Military head, he had all the opportunity to be sectarian. He never did.

But if you look at the settings of our civil service especially if you've had the opportunity of living in Abuja. You will find out that more that 40 percent of the civil servants in the various federal establishments are northerners. The remaining ones are distributed amongst the remaining region. So it is no surprise that out of about 50 most senior officers of different establishment more than 25 will be from the north.

The fact is that these people hardly work in private organisations. Once they graduate, job is sure for them in a federal establishment. As long as the person is a northerner. You can hardly find an unemployed graduate in the north. No matter how poor he was academically and once he enters they favour themselves to grow rapidly in the establishment.

On the issue of present appointments, he has little or no control over who becomes the head. He has vowed to follow the due process of appointing the most senior officers. According to the law guiding the civil service.

Let's wait for the ministerial list that he has absolute control over before we can judge.

I just like how Alh. Musa Yar'adua had only seven point agenda and was able to implement them.
GEJ had only one point agenda which was setting up committee but nothing to show for.
PMB might just do 10/36 of his promises.

I hope he does more than that because we voted for him based on those promises.

Sorry brother but at least let us give PMB some time and if he goes GEJ way then we can treat him the way we treated GEJ. But for now please let us not be too hasty to judge this administration! !!
