Why Exactly Was GEJ Voted Out? by mekaboy(m): 4:20pm On May 18, 2016
They said he is a fraud, insensitive and does not care about Nigerians. That's why he wants to remove subsidy.

Today they have removed it.

They said he increased fuel to 97. Today it's 150 and above.

They said 5000 MW of electricity generated under him was poor and fixing power is not rocket science.

Today we hardly have up to 2000.

They said dollar was selling at 250 and we can't survive it. Today it's 350.

They said his agriculture initiatives was not good enough. Today a bag of rice sells for thrice the price.

They said there r no jobs. Today even those that have jobs have lost it.

They complained about inflation at about 7-9% , today it is 13.7%.

They said his economic growth and position was fake
today we are sliding to recession.

So what exactly was the crime he committed ? What exactly have we changed to ? Were people feed up of good governance and wanted bad? Or where they deceived?

It's well managed today. Dollar 350, budget deficit of 2.something trillion. Looting 500 billion in the name of paying 1 million poor Nigerians. Fuel 145, Tomatoe 100 naira etc.

Because he was hopelessly foolish, and he still is, he took stealing of a country's fortune to a different height, it was something already existing, only for him to come and took it overboard, he rediculed our most exalted stool... Imagine a president , that before u see him, u have to pass tru alibis(most times his wife), that will be sorted with millions, before u can be anointed or "blessed" , even refusing to acknowledge his administration was rife with stealing(because he was championing it)
That man was the worst thing that happened to Nigeria, and I feel so disappointed that he happened to be my kinsman, makingba rediculed of himself, us, and Nigeria at large

And like one cretin above me posted, they were fed lies by apc propaganda machine in conjunction with Chicago's finest propaganda machine and like the simpletons they are they fell for lies

Just like they thought fuel subsidy was an illusion

It's fish brained Nigerians at fault

You wailers will never cease to amuse. All the things you listed up there what do you think caused it? You think Buhari just came into power one day, waved a magic wand and the entire economy began to deteriorate overnight or what? Everything we're suffering today started from GEJ and the preceding administrations. That is the absolute FACT! Buhari didn't cause the problem he just hasn't solved it yet.
The only international market open to our country is oil. That market has totally collapsed. At the same time the previous administration wasted our foreign reserves on frivolous spending and corrupt practices. They refused to save or plan for the future. So don't be surprised that we are where we are today. The story would have been the same regardless of who won due to the lack of foresight exhibited during the previous years of plenty.

GEJ was voted out simply because he didn't honour some agreement with some PDP elements from the north, that are now APC members. I kinda blame him for running for second term knowing fully well how he got to power. He would have maintained only one term and groom a successor from the north.

He called some people rascals and we showed him we are rascals.

He failed to attend to the request of Ogonis because they are not Ijaws.

He renamed the Gas City because of his Ijaw kinsmen, at the expense of the Itshekiris.

Incompetent : Maintaining inflation bellow 9% and unemployment takes alot of competence compared to 13.7% and rising.

Tell us one major achievement of the Ineffectual Buffon. What job did he create? OBJ created jobs that is quantifiable. tell us the jobs created by the Mandela of Otuoke. Under his nose, Nigeria was borrowing to pay salaries. That says it all

Corrupt: - who isn't among them? Is buhari blind to the accusations against Amechi? It took corrupt funds to get him there.

RIvers State should hold Amaechi responsible by dragging him to EFCC. He stole RIvers money and not Nigeria's money. It is duty of the people that he stole their money to drag him to EFCC.

On the international stage, Buhari and his deputy are recognised to be upright people. That alone commands respect. If corrupt money was used to get them power and they are still upright, so be it. Was the fund meant for prosecution of war against BH or was it directly from the national ATM CBN or from crude oil sales? Where is the money from, please enlighten us.

Are u indirectly attacking APC? handed over the treasury to vultures. You mean Amechi and the governors that refused to save because they wanted to use the money to install the current president.

Which promise has this administration kept?
If this president has the will to fight corruption how come he is not saving the excess crude funds?

How come he is not fighting those that funded his campaign?

Why do you talk as if you don't know the reason behind all that...when oil was selling for over a 100 dollars/ per barrel did your hero prove himself a great finance manager? or Perhaps you are just testing your new phone

Mind you, APC has spent 25% of its time and nothing to show.

If APC is able to grow our inflation rate from 9 to 13% in 1 year, what do u expect in 3 more years?
