I support most of your postulations...my only problem is why did jonathan not do half the things you posted..



NewOmenka:
I have been observing the way things have taken a turn for the worse since Buhari became president and I have the following advise for him if he will listen to move this nation forward:

1. Buhari should apologise for his 5% speech even if he has to do it in a diplomatic way.

2. He should immediately form an inclusive government; bring qualified people from the eastern axis of this country(i.e SS & SE) into the sensitive parts of government including the oil sector and the military.

3. Find a way of releasing Nnamdi kanu even if it is to arrange a prison break.

4. Take a look at the last confab report, there are many wonderful recommendation there. He may not accept all the recommendations but he could at least implement some.

5. He should personally visit the SE/SS and reassure them that we are all Nigerians and can still work together to make this nation great again.

6. He should make sure that there is a very functional seaport in the SS like Apapa in Lagos and create policies to deliberatly drive traffic to that port. This will greatly impact the economy of the region and will help spread development. Nigeria is too big to rely on Apapa for almost everything, things cannot go on like this.

7. A lot of the tension in the land today is because of struggle for power at the center. We can decide to revert to a regional style of government where your Premier is like your president such that the centre would be considerably weakened and unattractive. All this struggle for who becomes president will cease. Alternatively, we can adopt a system of rotaional presidency recognising the six geopolitical zone structure(experts can work on this and come out with something good).

Nigeria can be united and work again if Buhari can be wise.

Samguine:
Before the 2015 elections, President Muhammadu Buhari was touted as the messiah that will fix all Nigeria’s problems. He was repackaged and presented to Nigerians as the best invention since sliced bread.


Fast-forward to 2016 – Nigerians who voted for Buhari are now reawakening from the spell cast over them during the elections. There is widespread poverty in the land and the middle class may soon become extinct. As at June 2016, the President’s approval rating stood at 39 percent as against a very high rating of 80 per cent in October 2015. People want to see the President work for them. Here are 5 things President Buhari can do to endear himself to Nigerians one more time:

1. Cabinet reshuffle

The President’s cabinet is filled with professional politicians and not technocrats as expected; a little shake-up will really boost the President’s image. A lot of Nigerians will be happy to see him sack Minister of science and technology, minister of Agric, Minister of finance, Minister of interior, minister of education and his spokespersons. The President also needs to move a few others to ministries best suited for their skillset.


2. Visit the South-South and South East


Before the election, the President stunned Nigerians by dressing up in clothes depicting different Nigerian cultures. He did his best to show Nigerians that he wanted to be President of Nigeria and not President of his region. Today, the story is different. ‘’King of the North’’ – that is now one of President Buhari’s nickname. Some will argue that he is more sectional than any other President Nigeria ever had. What better way to shut up critics than to pay a visit to the South-South and South-East?


3. Commence distribution of N5,000 cash

Poor Nigerians expected Buhari to make their lives better but today they’re suffering the most. Parents now exchange their kids for bags of rice and cartons of noodles – the country is experiencing a technical recession. A lot of jobs have been lost and no new ones created. Nigerians all over are waiting to see President Buhari’s magic move that will end their sufferings. What move can be more magical than distributing free money that was promised during the elections? . Distribution of N5,000 to poor and vulnerable Nigerians may not solve every problem but it will sure help President Buhari regain the support of millions of Nigerians.

4. Focus on doing good rather than looking good

The Buhari administration has become one that is bent on looking good rather than doing good. We see more photos of the President doing mundane everyday things than we hear him speak. Nigerians want to see the President flag off new projects, they want to hear him roll out new policies and not pose for photos with newspapers.

5. Stop talking about the past


‘’Shut up and face front’’- is what President Buhari badly needs to hear from his advisers. Over one year into his term as President, Buhari is still talking about the previous administration. He has even managed to talk about the military coup that removed him from office in 1985. So far, Buhari has shown more interest in Nigeria’s past than her future. Young Nigerians do not want to hear the President talk about ‘what was’, they want to hear him talk about ‘what will be’.


--------------

No Presidency is perfect but President Buhari can do better. If Nigeria must make progress under Buhari, then the President must up his game.

Unfortunately your region does not drive the country.
So ,your trusted buhari may end up becoming Nigeria's worst leader in history by the time the people that owns the oil and the economy finish with his government.

Producing his certificate even if it's the photocopy will go a long way in making Nigerians regain the trust in him.that certificate saga with the subsequent hiring of 13 SANS caused a lot of damage to his reputation.

Yes, the poster is nothing but one of those IPAD Yoots whose hatred, bitterness and anger is likely to follow them into the grave.

#5,000
Ask yourself:
With the present price of goods in Nigeria, what would #5,000 do to you or how will it solve anyone's problem?
Not to mention the artificial inflation it will cause!

VISIT S/SOUTH & S/EAST:

Just a few months back, to commence the clean-up operation initiated by the President (Buubu), he was supposed to go to the S/South.

But the vandals from that side PROMISED TO KILL HIM IF HE COMES OVER.

The same Vandals are here today saying if he visited the S/South, it will make their anger and hatred go away! Na lie!

BUILD PROJECTS
This Buhari has ensured enough money is made available for Capital projects in every region.
Thieves like Saraki tried to remove and divert such funds to their pocket and guess what, teh same IPAD Yoots were supporting Saraki and his 40-Thieves!
The President just commissioned the Abuja-Kano rail line but guess what, the same IPAD Yoots said its not worth it because it was started by GEJ.
Common sense should tell anyone that Capital projects dont get done and finished within a few Months.

NOTHING Buhari does, can satisfy those hwo hate him with a passion: IPAD Yoots, TANoids and other PAID, evil agents of GEJ.


Buhari only needs to do THREE THINGS, to write his name in GOLD:

a) Regular and affordable ELECTRICITY

b) IMPROVED SECURITY

c.) Support Small Scale farmers on a large scale (Agric Villages and Settlements)

I may also add that his appointments needs to better reflect the plurality and secular nature of the Nation.



I don't campaign for people in power especially the executives cos they have all the power and might at their disposal.... Let (Buhari) do the right thing and watch us the citizens sing a song of praises for him. right now Nigeria is technically in recession according to our finance minister and their is no clear plan on ground, let the Apc led government stop this their paper and media politics and bring the dividends of democracy to the Nigeria citizens... We will continue to wail till we get it right in this country. The worst sickness that will bedevil anybody is zombiezim cos it have no cure

Yes, we know the afonjas will always help him out but we don't care.

His government will continue to be turbulent and he might end up as the worst president in the history of this country if he does not change his ways.

This is just the beginning.
As long as He would be rated as the worst president in history by biafrauds, it dosn't matter. We the good people of Nigeria don't care.

Dear Op,

From which credible poll did you read that Nigerians have lost trust in the President? The truth is the people who voted him knows the rot of 16 years wouldn't be cleaned in 2 years.

How would you claim you trust someone and still give his opponent over 82% of your votes?


It's better you say the people of SS/SE don't trust him. They never lost trust in PMB coz they never trusted him.

You just made my day. I love u.

7) Start a re orientation programme for the purpose of changing the way Nigerians think. That is the biggest problem in Nigeria. If that can be done, more than half the problems in the country would be solved in an instant.

All of a sudden the US are an oil exporter again - ask yourself where has this oil they're now exporting come from?

Technology to extract the oil has improved markedly in the last twenty to thirty years.

Most new oil in the US is gotten by fracking....a technology that was in its infancy twenty years ago.(when the US was importing half our oil.).

Iraq and Libyan oil is not owned by the US. Infact...the US does not get much oil from Iraq or Libya or even the Saudis anymore....which is why the Saudis started pumping oil execssively in 2014....to put US oil companies extracting oil in US under pressure....

Even if he does the listed and many more, buhari must not finish his tenure (he must die while in office). If by peradventure he finishes, there is no going back for him come 2019. He has received red card from Nigerians already.

Buhari's image has been tainted in the east, west and south, I don't know if he still reigns supreme in the north . He has fueled it by his silence on ethnic clashes, his lopsided ethnic appointments, his silence on the rising religious intolerance and his dormant ministers and non existing economic team . He forgets that the politicians surrounding him will push him further as long as their positions are secure.

What we voted for is not what we see.

The truth is the way Buhari is going, he may not be reelected. He is as clueless as GEJ. I still blame GEJ, if he made good use of the opportunity he got as President, we won't have a Buhari today.

All in all, may Nigeria win eventually. Not buhari or any selfish fool. Nigeria, and it's citizens.
