One Year In Office: NOI Poll gives Buhari 64% approval rating One Year In Office:

A report released in the early hours of Monday reveals that 57 per cent of Nigerians say President Muhammadu Buhari has done well in office.
The report, released by the Centre for Democracy and Development was described as “Buharimeter Citizens’ Scorecard on the performance of President Muhammadu Buhari (PMB), and the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), on the three broad campaign promises (Corruption, Economy and Security) in the first two (2) years in office.”
Although 57 per cent of the sampled population of 4,097 across 111 local governments in Nigeria approved of the president’s performance, the result varied across regions.
“While the North-West (85 per cent) and North-East (66 per cent) regions constitute the majority of those who approve of his job performance, respondents from the South-East (72 per cent) and South-South (60 per cent) regions make up those who do not approve his performance,” the report stated.
“On the fight against corruption, 52 per cent of Nigerians expressed satisfaction with the performance of the government regarding the fight against corruption, while 47 per cent expressed dissatisfaction,” the report stated.
Overall, the report showed that the president got better approvals from the northern part of the country, particularly north-east and north-west while he got the least approval from the south-east and the south-south part of the country.
Read full summary of the report below.
The Centre for Democracy and Development, CDD, Abuja, today releases summary of its report titled Buharimeter Citizens’ Scorecard on the performance of President Muhammadu Buhari (PMB), and the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, on the three broad campaign promises (Corruption, Economy and Security) in the first two years in office. The report is a product of a National Survey on Buharimeter, which was carried in all states and senatorial districts (both rural and urban) in Nigeria. In each of the 109 senatorial districts, a Local Government Area (LGA) which represents headquarter of the senatorial district was selected for interview. As a result, three (3) LGAs were sampled per State, including the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. A total of 4,097 face-to-face interviews were completed in 111 LGAs nationwide.


On a general note, the report reveals that fifty-seven per cent of sampled population approve of the job performance of PMB. However, there are clear regional differences observed in the President’s approval rating. While the North-West (85 per cent) and North-East (66 per cent) regions constitute the majority of those who approve of his job performance, respondents from the South-East (72 per cent) and South-South (60 per cent) regions make up those who do not approve his performance.
On the fight against corruption, 52 per cent of Nigerians expressed satisfaction with the performance of the government regarding the fight against corruption, while 47 per cent expressed dissatisfaction. Similarly, over 4 in 10 respondents are of the opinion that corruption has decreased with the current administration in comparison to the past administration. On the other hand, 3 in 10 respondents say corruption has increased. 47 per cent of Nigerians say they are aware of the Government’s whistle blowing policy; and of this proportion, 76 per cent believe it is a good measure that encourages the reporting of corrupt practices.
Almost 4 in 10 Nigerians (39 per cent) rate the current government’s performance on the economy as Poor, particularly amongst South-East (82 per cent) and South-South (59 per cent) respondents. This was followed by 35 per cent of respondents who rate the economy as Fair. Furthermore, about 46 per cent of Nigerians consider the government’s approach at tackling the economic recession in the country as somewhat “Effective”. On the contrary, 39 per cent consider the government’s approach as “Not Effective At All”, particularly amongst respondents in the South-East (71%).
Also, when asked to rate the President’s reform efforts on various sectors, significant proportions of Nigerians expressed some level of satisfaction with the “Security reform” with 54 per cent effectiveness; perhaps due to the relative success achieved in tackling the Boko Haram insurgency. However, the “Economic reform (67 per cent), Housing reform (62 per cent) and Transport reform (62 per cent)” have been considered NOT effective.
On promises relating to security, half of sampled population believe that the state of security in the country has improved compared to a year ago. However, 28 per cent say the security situation has remained the same, while 21 per cent say it has worsened. However, further analysis reveals that politically motivated conflicts (28 per cent), land ownership disputes (24 per cent), religious conflicts (23 per cent) and farmer & pastoralist conflicts (22 per cent) are amongst common causes of conflicts across Nigerian communities.
About 55 per cent of Nigerians believe the Government is doing enough to ensure that the Chibok girls are rescued and reunited with their families, particularly amongst respondents in the North-West region (73 per cent). On the contrary, 35 per cent do not believe government is doing enough. On what measures should be taken to address the issues of Boko Haram insurgency, herdsmen conflict and militancy, Nigerians have suggested a mix of “Dialogue (37 per cent)” and “Use of force (34 per cent)”. About the plans for the creation of state police, roughly 6 in 10 Nigerians (61 per cent) support the creation of State Police in Nigeria. On the other hand, almost 4 in 10 (39 per cent) Nigerians do not support it.
The survey was conducted between April 3rd and 22nd, 2017 in collaboration with NOIPolls. The respondents are between the age of 18 and older, and belonging to different social class, literacy and income levels. Post-stratification weights for the gender and senatorial district variables were constructed and applied to the data to make it more representative of the population, allow for more accurate population totals of estimates and reduce non-response bias. The weights assigned were in proportion to the 2006 Nigerian population figures.

Pres MBuhari's govt. is redefining farming in Nigeria by making agriculture attractive. Here's a Nigerian farmer

Nigerians really know how to hide the truth...
A country where tribe and religion take precedence over merit and fact...
That was why APC told them that one dollar would be equal to one naira,and they sheepishly believed without checking the theories and realities that be...
The number of educated illiterates keeps increasing exponentially.

You are right my brother

Awon wo ni 57%.... hahaha...

Awon ti o ni ilakai......

However my own concern is for Osibanjo to take over from the cursed woe, whom nothing good ever works for....

Another Christian President

Report: 57 Per Cent F Nigerians Approve Buhari's Performance..


Performance:

Hmmmmm so 57%of Nigerians approves their own death.... This is really unlike us cos we love life... Lie Mohammed is at it again

BeeBeeOoh:
You are right my brother

Few things I observe in your post.
1. The poll is still on, not completed
2. If you add Excellent rating to Average, you arrive at 45%. Not great, but not too shabby
3. This is a poll for just APC, not putting them against your own prefered party (If there is any)
4. The sample representation of the Premium Times poll is wide and goes beyond online users.

If it is re election, APC will win very easily.

Finally, the worst is over. This is just mid term report as the country climbs out of recession, the future looks great.

Nobody is buying that lie. Post exactly where APC said 1 Naira will be equal to 1 Dollar. APC corrected that impression even before the election of March 28, 2015

Whosoever wish the country evil, evil will not depart from them except they repent.

Nobody goes farming with full face of make up and nails. Alot of women don't even go to market slaying like this.

Could this be the result of a wishful poll?

Your best wishes can never procure good governance!

yes, the poll is still ongoing, it could reach 70% for "Poor" by the time it ends
APC has been telling us that the worst is over for donkey years, they also gave us the power to stone them after two years if the fail

Is that your prayer or what you hope for? Keep hope alive
Read through the Premium Times Poll. APC is still quite popular in NW, NE, SW and NC.
SS support is growing with 40% satisfied with the APC Govt. Leaving only SE. No problem. SE will also see the light eventually or get their Bia...

Prayer or hope does not change anything, an incompetent person will fail irrespective of what anybody prays or hope for. Secondly, stop mixing things up. APC is different from Buhari. Buhari popularity is dead even in the north even though APC is still popular, even SE are defecting to APC en masse but that is not an endorsement of Buhari, its all scheming for 2019. Buhari does not own APC
