I'm very happy with your comment. If everybody understands u and everything u do,then u are very "ORDINARY". Jesus christ even said it and likened a man that is born of the spirit like "a wind". U can't understand where the wind is coming from neither where it is going to. We have seen many cases where weather predictions were absolutely wrong!. The summary of this all is that President Buhari has a big and great plan for Nigeria. Simple!!!
What great plan are you talking about ,a plan that he cannot communicate to Nigerians in simple words.
The Late President Yar'adu and GEJ said Nigeria should be among the top 20 economies by 2020.This was clear,concise and simple, and currently within the past two years we have been within the top 25 economies just in 2015.
So far I have not hear any clear and concise statement from PMB on the economy even after six months.

Please for the records no economy in the world should be compared to weather forecast,even that of Zimbabawe.The reference to Jesus's qoute does not apply here.This is economics.

He promised to cut down the cost of governance by reducing the number of his cabinet.Why does he want to add more to his fec?

Buhari while reacting to question on the the divide in the National Assembly over Rotimi Amaechi’s confirmation as minister said he did not walk into the presidency alone hence he can not work alone and that some of those having problems at the National Assembly he had never meet them.

‘This is team work I said I know people but there are people that I accept from other people in our team that I trust without even knowing them.’

‘May be those that are having problem in the National Assembly I doubt if I have meet him in my life but then I am working with others.’

[size=13pt]Is Buhari doubting he ever met Amaechi in his life?

What kind of answer is this? They have traveled together many times.[/size]

Will they still not be paid as their counterparts heading ministries? I understand this might save costs (ex. Flights, entertainment, office staff).

Are we paying people salaries to be ministers of nothing because the constitution says we must have at least 1 minister from each state? That sounds like a stupid constitution and like the drafters didn't understand economics. Like Ive said before, if all states must be represented, Katsina, Lagos, Kwara and whatever states Dogara, the CJ, the SGF, COS, military chiefs etc are from should have already been considered represented.

Thanks my bro.Pls include that Adebayo Shittu that couldn't comment because of Boko Haram.
That man shouldn't be given any ministry. I propose each of the six geo-political zone having nothing less than three ministers heading ministries. In all, there will be eighteen ministers heading ministries. The President may choose, periodically, to swap those without ministries with those with ministries.

In the South West, Fashola (Lagos), Fayemi (Ekiti) and Adewole (Osun); in the South South, Amaechi (Rivers), Kachikwu (Delta) and Udoma (Akwa-Ibom); in the South East, (Abia), (Anambra) and Onu (Ebonyi); in the North Central, Ocholi (Kogi), Ogbe (Benue) and (Niger).

some weapons can be source of deliverance to some people while also a source of destruction to others. When Li kwaen yu (may his soul rest in peace) became the president of Singapore, he didn't kill the corrupt people. The same group that were killing singapore before he came to power were also the ones he used in moving the country from poverty to wealth. Leadership matters a lot. We have a new president who has promised change. Let's give them the benefit of the doubt. Let's give them four years and if we don't see any sign of progress then we can shout. Our votes have become might weapon and all politicians have realised that.

Most of those oil bunkerers will make a good investment locally rather than seeking for foreign investors who will come and pack our money back to their own country.Obj did the same by traveling to Europe every minute to lobbied for investors.We are still in the same mess today.Let encourage our own investors.

I fully support d president decision. D era of squandering our resources on so called political office holder has gone. Governance should not be an avenue to acquire wealth but to serve one's fatherland with utmost loyalty. I know some of these confirmed ministers will by now realize dat it is not going to be business as usual.

my brother I don't know if you know that we have other resources?? And we have the most important one called population?? Nigeria is a very rich country if well managed!! And so far I don't think we have a serious government!! He will keep on beating about the bush 4years of our lives will come and go!!! angry

It is still early to tell. I did not become a critic of GEJ until 2012/13 (and still think that a few of his ideas eg removal of subsidy were good, and even then I was still suspicious of the PDP as a whole....his predecessors had really made me upset)....and yes, PMB has been slow to tell us what he would do..

Part of the problem is that there is no money. GEJ came into office with higher prices, so he could afford to hit the ground running. PMB came in with low oil price....which had been going on for months beforehand....so any project has to take into account the fact that we are not earning enough revenue from oil.

Left to me now....we have to focus on power and education and mass transit. Everything can take care of itself. GEJ did not save enough money.....but even if he had....that would have only pushed the problem till next year. In my honest opinion, we need to run an austeirty government. Remove subsides, fight corruption, and focus on the three things I mentioned earlier.

Selling groundnuts, cocoa and palm oil won't help us much. Prices in those areas are very very fluctuant. And selling minerals too is not the way forward either.

What we need is an innovative economy....and it starts with fixing the power, and education and mass transit.

[size=13pt]In reality, four years is one day at a time.

Nothing stands still till the years roll by. And the economy is measured in daily productivity period. Then weeks and then months. And factories are closing, SMEs are folding up, jobs are being lost and families devastated.

As much as you would like people to wait for four years like zombies without uttering a word, economic realities won't permit.

For students and such dependants, it could be 'worth' the wait, afteall they still being fed, but productive adults and business owners and corporations don't have such luxury. [/size]

all u have said is future and past tense let's talk about present, if u can answer this question, I will rest my case, what is the current government's economic plans/blueprint/direction/policy? What plans does it have to resuscitate the economy? Buhari contested for this position a record 4times before getting it! One would have thought that he has got everything figured out or planned waiting for implementation to salvage the country but all am seeing is is confused government going back and forth

He is too corrupt to be a minister.
