#factsaboutBuhari 3. The Umaru Dikko Affairwas another defining moment in Buhari’s presidency. Umaru Dikko, a former Minister of Transportation under the previous cvilian administration of President Shagari who fled the country shortly after the coup, was accused of embezzling $1 billion in oil profits. With the help of the Mossad, the NSO traced him to London where operatives from Nigeria and Israel drugged and kidnapped him. They placed him in a plastic bag, which was subsequently hidden inside a crate labelled as “Diplomatic Baggage” .The purpose of this secret operation was to ship Dikko off to Nigeria on an empty Nigerian Airways Boeing 707. The plot was foiled by British airport officers.

#factsaboutBuhari 4.Buhari's administration was embroiled in a scandal concerning the fate of 53 suitcases, allegedly containing $700 million, owned by the Emir of Gwandu that were cleared through customs without inspection on his return flight from Saudi Arabia.
Human Rights
According to Decree Number 2 of 1984, the state security and the chief of staff were given the power to detain, without charges, individuals deemed to be a security risk to the state for up to three months. Strikes and popular demonstrations were banned and Nigeria’s secret police service, the National Security Organization(NSO) was entrusted with unprecedented powers. The NSO played a wide role in the cracking down of public dissent by intimidating, harassing and jailing individuals who broke the interdiction on strikes. By October 1984, about 200,000 civil servants were retrenched

#factsaboutBuhari 5. In order to reform the economy, as Head of State, Buhari started to rebuild the nation's social-political and economic systems, along the realities of Nigeria's austere economic conditions. [ 20 ]The rebuilding included removing or cutting back the excesses in national expenditure, obliterate or remove completely corruption from the nation's social ethics, shifting from mainly public sector employment to self-employment. Buhari also encouraged import substitution industrialisation based to a great extent on the use of local materials and he tightened importation. [ 20 ]
However, Buhari's bid to re-balance public finances by curbing imports led to many job losses and the closure of businesses. [ 21 ]
Buhari broke ties with the International Monetary Fund, when the fund asked the government to devalue the naira by 60%. However, the reforms that Buhari instigated on his own were as or more rigorous as those required by the IMF

Jonathan inherited 4000 megawatts of electricity but we are now left with 2500 megawatts with obnoxious tariff from PHCN.

Jonathan inherited 30% unemployment but he has doubled it to 55%. Jonathan inherited positive AAA rating bond but JPMORGAN has rated our bond negative. Jonathan inherited a surviving stock market but he killed the stock market. Jonathan inherited 10% duty on tokumbo cars but he increased it to 70%. Jonathan inherited chibokgirls but he lost them to Shakau. Jonathan inherited a rag tag boko Haram he is leaving behind a sophisticated and daring BH. Jonathan inherited a booming economy but doom is what he is about to handover. To worse it off, Jonathan is promoting STEALING against our moral and societal upbringing. What then is safe under Jonathan? ?? Absolutely Nothing! !! Dear Jonathan, I can't afford more losses! !! Enough is enough![/quote]

Buhari spent only 20 months (1year and 8 months) in power, and we are still talking about the positive impacts of his regime till today. Jonathan your mama wey dey otueke dey call you. Come dey go.

I guess you were not born then, I was in pry so I knew what happened, may we not have a government like that again.

What does Omooba mean? The child of a king. That must mean omooba77 is a bastard, then. Omo ale jati jati. No true son - no baby who drank these waters - could make that statement.

See excuse, who appoint the AGF and Minister of Justice? under whose jurisdiction is the EFCC and ICPC? Abeg say something else! he has failed in that regard.

Meaning he should impose his will on the judiciary?

Collynzo9:

Let's forget about Yaradua's death or the day GEJ was sowrn in for a moment, when did he start acting as President and how is the period between then and now 6 years?
I have thrown up this challenge before and none of you apologists have ever taken it up.
You just wan the deception to go on unchallenged.

Hmmm Feb 2010 - Feb 2015 = 5years today. Is my maths good or am I wrong?

francizy:
He's trying indeed!

Where are the jobs?

oga abeg as big as china is , 90% of the jobs they have there now weren't created by their government..... The Government can only create a conducive environment for investors Who'll in-turn Create the jobs ......& Not Jobs for the whole UnEmployed citizen ........

Think na..... Even Obama, putin n the president of brazil are still being quarried on something That's virtually impossible.......

The government cannot create jobs out of. Thin air........ They can only revive an existing slot which can only Serve a select few......

Aregbe just being declared again; under OBJ u wan die? That judge go think twice; freedom of expression good; GEJ carry go........

Hmmm! Used to think its 6years since that is what some of us have been fed with long a time now.

However, I have decided to do the calculation myself after seeing this thread.

Assuming we calculate from GEJ's acting days to date:
Feb 2010 - Feb 2015 = 5years today. Is my maths good or am I wrong?

Please do your own maths too let's confirm.

If u like call GEJ clueless..i will still vote for him
If u like call him Otuoke fisherman...I will still vote him
If u like call him the most corrupt leader...I will still vote for him
If u like call him senseless... My vote is still for him....
Wither GEJ will win or not...I will still vote for him
If u like tell me he hasn't completed his Ph.D...I will still vote for him..
Everyone in Nigeria should vote against GEJ...I will still be the only one to vote for him
I have made up my mind

Ko kan aye.

The fact that so many people keep mentioning "six years" suggests that many Nigerians lack the capacity to think for themselves. Someone mentions "six years" on social media and you just run with it without verifying?

Smh.

"ON POINT" the strategy was well researched,with no good intention. Was in a pub yestd, when i overhead two parents(a lawyer included) arranging with a supposed teacher, how to manovre forthcoming WAEC exams in their favour. The toast to a successful deal was "sai ...". I ain't nobody's fan, but is this how we help shape future leaders. Fastrack living at all cost. Common sense aint common. Ignorance is "Ebola's" 1st cousin.

I think and reason, that why I saw the lies and propaganda of 6 years; let us learn to think and not blinded by sentiment.

Northerns can still faithfully bear the witness of this topic,
Those that stays @ Nigeria's crossing borders can still testify on this topic,
Student can still speak good on this topic,
Loyal subject in River state,Akwa ibom state,Imo state,all they northerners states etc
Can still speak good on this issue.

GEJ tilllllllllllll2019

Be wise country ppl

Goodluck, when you and your family are suffering, good luck when the naira is as worthless as FFK's words, goodluck when Nigerians want to leave her but they can't, goodluck when you can't even browse the internet because you don't have money, goodluck when your good luck runs out. Goodluck.

The mediocre rail lines you mean. Nigeria and Mexico approached China for credit facility to rebuild their railway systems (and other infrastructure). They both got the credits.
Look at what each country did with the money.
When do we stop celebrating mediocrity?

Please research before making claims that show you out as a foolish peddler of Poorly thought out lies.Like your post above.
This is the most recent development on the issue of Mexicos rails story;

There has been some misconception about how long President Goodluck Jonathan has been heading this country. The lie being peddled is that he has spent 6 years;late President Musa Yardua died in May5, 2010;but President acted from Feburary10,2010 until he fully assumed the Presidency on May 6,2010...
So mathematicians should help me do the needful...............

GEJ didn't release a dime for the Lagos state government during the Ebola crisis. I'm really sorry for people who support things blindly. Whoever you are I'm really sorry for your future.
