Iykopee:
Its seems the OP came in contact with the APC lying machines for the first time... A proper ex-ray on the APC chief defenders of evil with specialty in insults and lies wud reveal alot hence, i dont bother engaging people who really do not have irrefutable facts to present in favour of Buhari. I recall vividly the issue of buhari building 3 refineries was the greatest lie that was used by these lying machines to promote some1 whose political idealogy and career has reached its twilight.. @ datolee, don't waste ur time engaging the unintelligent barcanista and his chain of scoundrels on analytical issues devoid of aging lies.

Aksonman:


LOSER,u APC dogs have just been A$s whooped by an intelligent Nairalander that had ur time.
Ride on @OP

bossmini84:
If they like let them propagate more lie buhari can neva become nigeria's president just go out on the street while ppl score jonathan low many dread a buhari leadership. So I am not bothered by what we see on NL if u check most ppl in the politics section are mostly students lawyers, past student union members. GEJ all the way. Erections are neva won on the internet at least ot this time.

Max24:

All it takes for evil men to triumph is for good men to keep quite. Nigerian democracy must be issue based and debated so that we can make informed choice. It is not a waste of time. The only way we can help ourselves is by encouraging the truth and condemning the falsehood whether from GMB's supporters or Jonathan's.

barcanista:
@ OP: I would have ignored you but since it is a direct response, I decided to respond to you.
1. You didn't even state that Nigeria wasn't having debt as at when GMB took over. Only claiming that Shagari left reserve. Let me educate you on fiscal policy of government.
- It is VERY possible for a Government to have external reserve and still be indebted. Jonathan's Government is HIGHLY Indebted yet, it still have external reserve.

2. As regards 2

The worst of Buhari is better than the best of your drunken master aka Oga Jona...oga Ade park well.You are paid to do your work though but guy...we dey see road clearly now.

rigarmortis:
look, OP you are overlabouring yourself, the mere fact that APC is made of old and desperate politicians who decamped from one party for selfish purposes then turn and talk ill of the same party shows that the union has no noble intention from inception. any other presented fact is an icing on the cake.

Mr. buharis desperate schemes to rule by all means thereby marketing himself as a corrupt free person from a moral highground which caused him to goof by claiming that he borrowed money to by nomination form while he cruises around in bullet proof cars is another matter for another day.

yungprof09:
my friend you are indeed a bias bootlicker of GEJ for posting what you have absolutely no knowledge of..it is indeed very worrisome that jonathan supporters will go any lenght to propagate rubbish lyk this...BUHARI WILL WIN THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2015 with a landslide..am sure of that.

Lets examine another lies from Buhari supporters on economy, this time by Ola Idowu http://saharareporters.com/2014/10/23/if-buhari-easy-defeat-why-fear-ola%E2%80%99-idowu

Quoting 6 paragraphs before the end of his If Buhari was easy to defeat, why the fear? essay



1. If Buhari paid off $4 billion of or foreign debt, how come the debt was higher than it was when he left office?

2. Shagari didn't borrow $15 billion, it was total debt before he left office, meaning, his borrowing plus the borrowing of previous government

3. It is on record that Shagari government refused to follow the IMF guidelines, including devaluation of Naira, the same thing Buhari supporter is using to hype him up

4. The inflation of 40% happened in 1984, that is during Buhari administration

5. Another big lie of the century, Nigeria never, and I repeat, Never operated budget surplus under Buhari!! The only times Nigeria had budget surplus were in 1971, 1972, 1995 and 1996. How these people can look people in their face and tell blatant lies just to sell their candidate is alarming. Nigeria's deficit under Buhari stood at N3.3 billion in 1983, N2.6 billion in 1983 and N3 billion in 1985

This is a more objective fact and I thank you.
Both sides are spinning lies from their yansh in order to nail the other party.

barcanista:
We agree on the GDP per capita based on PPP.

2. That question is not sincere. First, I never said GMB operated surplus budget, except when you uplifted it fromm SR. Anyway, from my research, the Budget deficit under GMB was reuced by 21%, which implies 21% Growth in 1984. You should rather spell this out than shouting deficit deficit like it detoriated under him.

3.On Refinery.....
- they had the idea b4 GMB came to power in NNPC of building refinery

- It took a Buhari to implement the Idea and Signed the contract for both refineries under the leadership of Obj.

One Question:
Who built it? Who Signed it?

kastonkastrol:
thanks you said it all... I just checked were the op was copying all his pdp lies from, kinda disappointed though with the op.

Opiosko:
APC is a political fraud. It's time we let them alone wallowing in their lies and self deception.

Sir, you are beginning to lose your reputation. Kindly accept DEFEAT!

nairaman66:


PDP TANoids are afraid of change! What has the PDP leg government achieved in the last 16yrs of democratic rule? It has been one hell of a bumpy ride for Nigerians- Colossal corruption, nepotism, jingoism and cabalism! This system must change and I don't see the PDP giving us this change!

Obviously Buhari is not a saint, but he definitely has the credentials to take us there!

Kelvin0:

Perhaps if this power thirsty extremist and political harlot under the guise of APC will stop the propaganda and lies and allow Jonathan to focus the next 4years will b a memorable one for Nigerians...

TheSonOfMark:
TInubu and GMB might not like GEJ but deep down they can't deny the fact that GEJ is still going to remain Nigeria's number one citizen for the next 4 years and 7 months.

abdulabbakar:


M on sick bed, bt I never feel alone with people of intellect like you...God Bless Nairalanders and Naija @large

Anyi3:
From a neutral point of view

OP some credit has to go to Buhari for the refineries, though I understand the APC dudes would over exaggerate his contribution

Secondly, the 3% inflation rate was from about 8 months of Buhari's tenure, he deserves some credit as well.

So maybe you should change the topic from lies to exaggerations.
