Buhari Speech About - First 100 Days In Office by egift(m): 6:20pm On Sep 01, 2015
Let us put the record straight for posterity and the Truth. Below is exactly what President Muhammadu Buhari said about "the first 100 Days In Office", while speaking in London.

[b]The second one: high expectations and what to do with the first 100 days. Yes, I respect that question because quietly I was thinking about these high expectations. Those who are following the trail of our campaigns can see how people are turning out, some becoming emotional and crying. I am really getting scared that if I get there they will expect miracles within the next week or months. That would be very dicey handling that one. I think we have to have a deliberate campaign to temper high expectations with some reasonableness on the part of those who are expecting miracles to happen.

Just to go first to the ‘first 100 days’,1 some of it is fraudulent and I don’t want to participate in any fraud in any form. Nigerians know that we are in trouble as a people and as a country. When we get there we will quickly get correct intelligence of what is on the ground and inform Nigerians and just learn what I have just read. We will make sure that the appropriation and application of public resources will not be allowed. You would be surprised by how much savings we will realize. That saving will be ploughed back into development and this is what I can promise. But I would remove that ‘100 days’.[/b]

Re: Buhari Speech About - First 100 Days In Office by doctokwus: 6:43pm On Sep 01, 2015
I for one have never doubted that PMB wasn't categorical about the 100days stuff,just as the 3mths BHaram they said he promised was busted.
But the issue is that there has been very poor handling of this latest,denied promise particularly because the so called document has been in circulation and no one in govt or APC discredited it till now.
But what pisses me off with the PR team and y I maintain that Garba Shehu should be sacked because of the bad press and poor PR releases of his is this:PMB has done incredibly well even without hitting 1st gear;why not simply focus on his remarkable achievements, just with his "body language" & simply state the truth that its because the govt met the state of affairs far worse than everybody thought,as d reason for some of those promises in the disputed document,NOT YET being fulfilled?!
Which even moderately sensible media assistant comes out with such annoying denial at a time when there is still uproar over d 'colour' of his kitchen cabinet!
I will continue saying it Shehu shud be sacked, Lai Muhammed can always be excused as the APC as a party maynot always be putting out the govt position on issues.
Its gotten so bad that I always fear for PMB every time Shehu gets interviewed or issues a press release.
With the calibre of people PMB is dealing with,depriving them of power,money and influence,they are ready to use all negative means to thwart his efforts; he therefore needs a more seasoned media head.

Niger Delta

-Commit myself and my administration to the phased implementation of the United Nations Environment Program’s(UNEP) recommendations on Ogoniland.
-Unveil a marshal plan for the regenerative development of the Niger Delta.

Diversity
Diversity refers to the inherent complexities of the variations in the social fabric of a people. Elements of poorly managed diversities include absence of cohesion, low capacity or political will to address resulting tensions, weak institutions of the state, in-equalities in every facet, impunity, breakdown of mutual trust, rising incidences of violence and total breakdown of law and order. To quickly reverse this observable trend in our society:
I pledge to:
-Continually acknowledge and consciously equality and equity in all government businesses and activities.
-Implement the National Gender Policy including 35% of appointive positions for women.
-Work with National Assembly to pass a National Disability Bill, which I shall immediately assent, into Law.

Health

-Review occupational health laws and immediately commence enforcement of the provisions to reduce hazards in the work place.
-Unveil a health sector review policy to ensure the efficient and effective management of our health systems.
-Mobilize the health workforce needed for the all-round implementation of our primary health programmes for rural communities.

Management of the Economy for prosperity
Every Nigerian deserves to benefit from the running of our collective resources. We promise not to leave any Nigerian behind in our determination to create, expand and ensure equitable and effective allocation of economic opportunities. No matter the amount of funds we generate, unless there is an efficient and effective utilization, it will only create few billionaires. Unless we fight corruption, the economy will only benefit the greedy in our society.
I pledge to:
-Work with the legislature to strengthen constitutional provisions to make the meetings of the National Economic Council more periodic and predictable and its decisions more binding.
-Present annual report on the state of the economy to the National Assembly and the Nigerian People.
-The Preparation of Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and annual Budget will be guided by job creation projections.
-Negotiate rule-based oil revenue management process, and adopt a rule based excess crude account management process, which will entail a fixed percentage (e.g. 10% or 20%) of oil revenue each year, and also set clear rules about where the proceeds will be domiciled, when the savings can be used, by whom, and what the savings can be used for.

The youth are the salt of the nation. More than 60% of our population is categorized as being of youth age. The future of the nation depends on the brains of the youth and not on what is buried under the ground.
