For all it's worth, PMB knew the situation on ground six months ago when he was sworn in. He must have realized he will have to need supplementary budget to pay marketers their subsidy long before now. So, why did he wait till just about 2 wks ago to send a bill to that effect? Also, why has he failed to address the nation about the situation when it's clear there was no immediate solution?

I don't think six months is too short to nip a potential catastrophe in the bud. The president failed to act early enough to prevent this current crisis and I don't think anyone can explain this convincingly.

I hope he gets his acts right though at the end of the day.

Dude, wake up. President is President. The same capacity Jonathan had is the same capacity Buhari has. The same weigh Buhari measured Jonathan is by the same weigh he will be measured.

You don't have to like Jonathan but be honest to acknowledge that Jonathan didn't have to tell so much lies or raise undue propagandas to be where he was and to serve Nigerian people.

We should give this man a chance .he will be better than some of the past leaders

Warning: Let no wailer see this as an opportunity to wail uncontrollably. This article is in line with my personal resolve to call the president to order on this forum whenever he missteps. Besides, GEJ was not an option in the last election. So, please keep your sermon of “we told you”, “we warned you”, “Buhari is incompetent” and other bla bla blas to yourself.

Fuel Scarcity: Deafening Silence from the president
One area that our hopes and expectations of good result of Buhari’s presidency were high is in the petroleum industry. Apart from the fact that the president has failed to find a permanent solution to the issue of oil subsidy in the last six months he has presided over the affairs of Nigeria, he has also failed to provide petrol to Nigerians at the regular pump price of N87 and with ease.

To say that the current situation of fuel scarcity has brought untold hardship and resulted in irreplaceable loss of productive time is an understatement. The more worrisome is the fact that the president who doubles as the nation’s minister of petroleum has not deemed it fit and necessary to address the nation (through TV or through one of his media aides) on the hardship citizens are passing through and also use the opportunity to apologize and assuage our anger. This silence is too deafening to be ignored and I hereby condemn it in its entirety, the president’s handling of the fuel scarcity we have at our hands. He should as a matter of national urgency address the nation on what is happening, the government’s efforts to normalize it and above all the long term solution (if not permanent) to the problem. Anything short of this amounts to taking Nigerians for a ride. Pure and simple!

Excessive Overseas Trip
Another area I think the president has erred in recent times is that of gallivanting abroad at every given opportunity. When ministers had not come on board I could understand the need for him to personally attend to those numerous summits and conferences but with the coming of all ministers I’d expected that there will be a drastic reduction in such journeys. The latest one to Iran for Gas Exporting Countries didn’t require his personal presence plus that of Ibe Kachikwu (Min. of state for petroleum) and Tunde Fashola (Min of Power, Works and Housing). He could have let Kachikwu and Fashola attend that one and if he must attend he should have let Ibe Kachikwu stay at home tending to the fuel crisis at hand.

As if the gaffe of the Iran trip was not enough, I read moment ago that the president is due to lead a delegation to Paris on Climate Change! Now, this one is a trip too many in my opinion. We have more pressing issues at home than climate change. Besides, we have a minister of Environment who can lead a Nigerian delegation if we must attend. Why our president must reduce himself to “Ajala travels all over the world” in the face of enormous challenges at the home front beats my imagination.

Dear PMB, you have a chance to prove to Nigerians that we did not make a mistake in electing you president. If you however choose to do as it pleases you even in the face of sufferings of the common man, 2019 is not far away.

May God Bless Nigeria!

passingshot, I commend your sense of objectivity. If all of us in this forum should borrow a leaf from you without allowing our party inclinations override our sense of judgement, I my opinion, I think it will surely be better for us all and Nigerian state.
However, always welcome or condone discordant or dissenting voices. You need not stoop so low to call such voices "wailers".

You don't have to go to that extent. Everybody is entitled to his opinion. The fact that he expressed his opinion on burning national issues does not mean that he has lost his way. Afterall, there are two sides to a coin. You have expressed your own feelings about the issue. Leave him as he has expressed himself. To many of us, Buhari has never been the real issue, the good of Nigeria is always the main issue here. Buhari was just fortunate to be the beneficiary of our collective aspirations this time around. If he misuses the opportunity, "pasan ti a fi na iya ile, o n be l'aja".

So please don't overflog this issue. "Ti ara ile eni ba n je aayan ti a ko so fun, kurukere e koni je ki a gbadun to ba ya". It's our duty to call our leaders to order when they err.

arresa:

We all have opinions and are entitled to our opinions just like you asserted and everything I posted in this thread remains my opinion so what issue do you have with me expressing my opinion?
Please lets keep respecting each others opinion regardless what our opinions are.
Btw, I have zero problem speaking up against this administration, but I'm not fickle minded or under any illusions that this administration can resolve our 55 year old problem and the systemic rot and decay past leaders have ravaged Nigeria with is solvable in 6 months. It's unrealistic.

You guys keep showing how DAFT your dumb idol is.
He did not realise he needed to address this fuel subsidy early abi? Yet his Minister of Propaganda, Alh. LIE Mohammed, was giving us lectures about avoiding "African time".
Anyway shebi he said he knows nothing of fuel subsidy!

you don't wash your dirty linen in public. You don't have to say this, but suggest a way out.

I'm sure if you are a minister under BUHARI today , you won't be entitled to this opinion. I guess you all descended on barcanista when he dared to speak out then.

nairamaniac:


passingshot I'm one of your greatest fans. I fight behind u In any battle. ur post is on point. but I still believe there's no cause for alarm. Buhari has so much energy in him hence the travelings. we all know these trips ain't pleasure trips. Fuel scarcity problem WD be permanently fixed wen the industry is put in order which is much bigger Dan Buhari for now.

arresa:



You care to explain to us exactly wheat he should have done to prevent fuel scarcity?

Please do that instead of the vague and flyby proclamation.




This is your own personal opinion and I don't even know what you need to see to convince you that he's concerned apart from waving magic wand to make the issue go away overnight...




I'm glad he went with him because he did for a reason.


We both know these meetings are opportunities to strike energy and power deals on the side so who do you have in place to do the negotiations? Your power minister and oil and gas professionals.

How do you travel to a oil and gas summit to engage leaders and players from other oil and gas entities without taking your own man in charge of oil and gas? Makes zero sense.



Maybe you have a point here, just maybe because I haven't sturdy the issue or their rational behind this policy..




What you termed mistakes sometimes are hard and unavoidable policies made based on facts and data available to the folks involved and making the decisions.

I have no problem criticizing or blaming this administration for any wrong doing, but my criticism got to be rationale, objective and sensible.

I voted for change and I'm not under any kind of illusion that change comes without pain. I believe in the President and his capacity to get us out of our 55 year old mess once and for all.

If you don't believe in change or if you don't have any personal convictions to stick with what you believe in, then leave change alone and move to the other side and from the way they are cheering you up, the bigots, illiterates, the biafrauds and anti Nigeria elements w'd love to have you...
