So the mentality of Nigerians caused recession?
Fuel scarcity?
Increment in price of commodity?
Taking six months to appoint ministers?
Appointment of dead people into boards?
I can go on....

Were all these things caused by the mentality of Nigerians?

It's a pity your father thinks he's got a son...

Ok Buhari sat in his office decided all the above? Use your head and get over Jonathan ...he and his likes are not coming back.

Nigerians caused all the above problems. Keep wailing it's free.

Sanchez01:

Bless you, bro! Nigerians made a very huge mistake in voting Buhari. We have all come to realise it and are bent on correcting it come 2019.

You wouldn't really blame these BMC guys. They are on a payroll to defend the ineptitude of Buhari's administration even though his horrible record so far is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf.

I just pray the Ekpa quotes me and try to make sense about Buhari's paper security achievements.

I just fear for 2019, because we would be torn between a useless, clueless vegetable of a president and a highly corrupt, super desperate former vice president in the guise of Atiku.

should PDP pick Atiku then Buhari will surely win, Atiku is worst, I already lost hope in Nigeria, Not until we have a credible Aspirant I ain't voting shit.

what surprises me most is buhari silence on this Fulani herdsmen, no single comment or some sort, even upon all the news flying around.

Men!!!!!!

donb06:
my broda u just recited wat ma best frnd said today he was a die hard supporter of buhari until today. only 4 him to uncover dt he stopped supporting buhari since 6 mnths ago bt was ashamed to let me knw due to my attitude of taunting him........ pls let us stop taunting ppl dt voted buhari.......IT WAS A MISTAKE.

So you mean coming out as a new wailer is now as difficult as people coming out as gay.

My brother they thoroughly deserve all the taunting they get o.

In Wailerdom, we do not look kindly upon cross-carpeting political prostitutes like Nigerian politicians. Bubu supporters should hold their side.

I remember being shouted down as "tanoids" because we pointed out Bubu's decades of failure to lead people correctly, corruption as petroleum minister in the 1970s, getting kicked out by his own boys, PTDF waste under Abacha and refusal to improve/educate himself after leaving govt/jail.

.....and Grammar full ground......

You know something? Nobody is above mistake but this attitude of yours- continously blaming people for wrong choices made will make them continue to defend those choices even though they may have realised their mistake internally - guess the effect of that? They will continue making those mistakes just so that people like you don't gloat and you know who will benefit? - Buhari of course! Tact is a billion times more effective than bluff.

This man at his old age still trying to impress people with foreign language competence. I won't be surprised if he made a lot of errors in handling very basic English grammar comport in that writeup, despite his over-the-top use of semantics.

I honestly wonder why Africans write or speak the way they do. Unnecessary verbosity that you'd hardly find other races doing. Complete show off. Simple communication skills becomes a problem for us. Is he trying so hard to remind us that he is a professor? If the average person cannot read and comprehend fully the trash he wrote up there, then he really hasn't communicated effectively. I respect his status a a laureate, but the above piece belongs in the trash.

BTW, he should spare us the wailing. He is a late comer! He should have consulted his newspaper library before elections, that way we would have been spared the agony of reading this write-up. Unfortunately he belongs to the animated mumu class he wrote about.

How I wish we could have more of your types on this forum, I keep saying it to my friends that the day igbos and Yorubas form a bond and decide to work together, that day will be Nigeria's real independence and starting point of greatness.

Stepping on someone's toes in a marketplace is a mistake.

Forgetting to send a well wish to a friend on his/her birthday is a mistake.

Voting Buhari was not a mistake. It was EVIL.

Buhari did not magically change in 2014/2015. He had always been the ostracized bigoted ex-general up to no good. WS and the establishment knows more about Buhari than most of us. And every year he contested, we were all reminded of why he was a bad idea.

What changed in 2014/2015 was unbridled hate for GEJ.

As most Buhari supporters turned critics often say, 2015 was all about removing GEJ, not electing Buhari. You can't call that a mistake. That is premeditated wickedness.

For the hate of GEJ, millions lined up to elect:

1. A renowned bigot and Islamist
2. The patron of the umbrella organization under which the 4th deadliest terror group operates
3. An ex-HOS that had not contributed anything to his village, much more his state or the country in almost 30 years since he left power
4. An ex-PTDF chairman who rose from a meeting and said Nigeria's most infamous dictator was not corrupt
5. An ex-HOS who is paid for life and can't manage his finances orderly such that he claimed not to have enough money to buy a Presidential ticket

And I'm just scratching the surface.

Really, what were these people who made this "MISTAKE" expecting?

That the same man who served under a corrupt dictator and absolved that dictator of all wrong doing would fight corruption?
That the patron of Miyetti Allah would give two bleeps about the Herdsmen-Farmers crisis?
That the same man who used Boko Haram and Chibok girls to score political points would be in the best position to end it?
That a man who can't manage his finances would be able to manage a $0.5 trillion economy properly?

I can not take anyone who voted for Buhari in 2015 seriously? Not now, not ever.

The same people who were vehemently against subsidy removal in 2012, calculated that petrol pump price should be at most N45, are the same people who cheered the removal of fuel subsidy in 2016, and are sheepishly queuing for hours to buy fuel at an average of N250 (a 500% increase within 2 years) today.

And more importantly, they are the same people rationalizing why it is okay to pay N40 per liter subsidy. These are the same people who claim to have made a mistake in 2015. Did they also make a mistake in 2016? What about today with the biting fuel scarcity, are they still making a mistake? If yes, why's there no semblance of the irate response that characterized the attempted removal in 2012?

No educated person who voted for Buhari aside of religious or ethnic reasons would ask Buhari to run his/her business. Yet, out of spite, they forced the man on 200 million people.

In the OP article, Soyinka isn't criticizing the government, he's simply calling for RESTRUCTURING. The same restructuring that has been brushed aside by the establishment. Who is he trying to fool?

Buhari has just 4 more years. I have no problem with him finishing his 8 years. Let him serve how he deems fit and when he's done he should go rest. Because I know Nigerians never learn and deserve every punishment he's meting out. You don't walk around fire expecting not to sweat.

Those who want to keep doing EVIL for whatever reasons best known to them, under the banner of "MISTAKES", so others don't gloat at them can continue. We are all buying fuel at #200+. We all go to the same markets and pay absurd prices. We all carry a Nigerian passport. It's our family members who are filling up the unemployment column. And it's our fellow countrymen who are bombed and matcheted in their sleep everyday.

If a TROGLODYTE and an excuse of a human being, thinks preventing his/her ego from getting bruised is good reason to allow for a nonentity to take our economy and country back 30 years, I say "well done." My hand no dey 9ja mata again. Anyhow una 1 do am, mk una continue.

But all the curses being laid at Buhari would not escape those who knowingly voted for him even when they knew better.

16 years in power, no new refinery, they killed out 4 refineries, they looted the treasury, no infrastructure, subsidy scam left and right, bad roads, bad bridges, no new hospitals, bad school and so on, their only specialty was looting and stealing.

Perfect response to some dolts littering the cyberspace. Unbridled hatred instigated by a few tribal leaders for their own miscalculated selfish gains. Unfortunately for all, Nigeria is burning in hell because of that and the brimstone part hasn't even come. I warned them that the Yar Adua incident wouldn't repeat itself as they widely thought, but deaf ears were all over the place.

They were trying to protect their tribal interests without any other considerations and at the end of the day, only one tribe enjoys it all while the other is just a glorified houseboy. Nigeria as at now has been dragged at best 30 behind.

Stop littering the Internet with ignorant, hate filled, bigoted and unintelligent rubbish.


GEJ was rightfully kicked out of office by Nigerians for gross incompetence, laziness, corruption and abdication of duty.

Your PDP uncles and GEJ sat there for 16 years with largest oil earnings, huge reserves, huge ECA and oil selling for over $100/barrel and they still did not build 1 single refinery and they did not repair any of our 4 refineries even after budgeting repair funds year after year.

So, Nigerians/APC/PMB are responsible for 16 years of PDP's neglect, incompetence, corruption and refusal to build refineries or repair any of our 3 refineries and we should go back to the same worthless PDP..?

Good that Nigerians know you Igbos and anti Nigerian elements very well so you silly and toilet essay means nothing...

Everything about people like you is seen through the lenses of PDP,apc. Grow up and you'll see they are the same. Stick to issues not party affiliations. The majority of the crooks you defend were once in other political parties and they are all cronies.

Everybody is not a rogue. That's fallacy of overgeneralisation. That you might have dealt with considerable number of rogues doesn't mean everyone is a rogue.

This has been expressed most recently, and near universally in the word “Restructuring”, defined straightforwardly as a drastic overhaul of Nigerian articles of co-existence in a more rational, equitable and decentralized manner. Such an overhaul, the re-positioning of the relationship between the parts and the whole offers, it has been strongly argued, prospects of a closer governance awareness of, and responsiveness to citizen entitlement. An overhaul that will near totally eliminate the frequent spasms of systemic malfunctioning that are in-built into the present protocols of national association.

This was a masterful write-up. We need to change our perspectives. Restructuring is top priority right now.

bigass:


Let me ask you these questions.

Why did they hate GEJ in 2014?
Those who hated him in 2014 didn't they support in 2011?
Why did they hate him?
Agreed PMB is incompetent? But Was GEJ not incompetent?

Question 1: Why did they hate GEJ in 2014?

A. Ethno-religious reasons. The bulk of his antagonists fell in this group. Over 60%.
B. Overblown issues with his administration.

Sanusi said $20b was stolen. He later reduced it to $10b. Later to $2-5b. Till date, and with an opposition government in place, they've not been able to trace the money.

The opposition claimed he was promulgating subsidy fraud. Yet, when in his wisdom he decided to remove it in 2012, they said over their dead bodies. Later when the same marketers held the nation to ransom for fear of not receiving payments, they quickly passed the blame to him.

Buhari is on record for saying they've got nothing on Diezani. Yet she was so villified. After over half a dozen independent audits since 2015, no one can say this is the exact amount Diezani stole.

The same people who decried the launch of the offensive against Boko Haram and establishing emergency rule in Northern states were the same people saying GEJ was lacking in will to fight the group.

The same people who lampooned all governmental efforts to negotiate the release of Chibok girls are the same people celebrating the release today.

He said stealing was not corruption. Illiterates took that as a smoking gun to mean his endorsement of corruption. Yet the ICPC chief, officer in charge one of the leading anti-corruption LEA, reiterated the same thing. It is on record.

For every Morro that was given a clean bill of health, there was a Stella Odua, Yakubu, and the invisible saint Maina that were deposed. And everyone seems to forget that the Immigration Recruitment Exercise was contracted out to a private firm. And that after the incident, GEJ ordered automatic employment for affected families. He also ordered immediate return of all the funds collected from the applicants. It is all on record.

For every Alams, there was an Ibori.

They said he gave the oil pipelines to criminals and they didn't suggest a viable alternative. NSCDC has had minimal effect on vandalism. And they say he courted criminals, yet Henry Okah is still in a SA jail, MEND is still a shadow of its former self, and he hunted and killed John Togo.

I could keep it flowing like I was writing a novel. The bottom line is that those who hated him in 2015 had already started hating him in 2011. Everything was fair to use against him, from unsubstantiated allegations to pure conjectures. And it became a mortal crime to say anything about his achievements. They were not noteworthy and nonexistent. He was simply a reincarnation of the DEVIL himself.

Question 2: Those who hated him in 2014 didn't they support in 2011?

Yes, and the same people who supported him in 2011, in less than 9 months after he was sworn in (January 2012) decided to Occupy Nigeria because he removed fuel subsidy.

What sort of stup*d support is that?

Curiously, it was after Occupy Nigeria, that subsidy payments ballooned to 25-50% our budget annually.

The same people who claimed to have supported him in 2011 were blind to the improvements that were happening under him. They called it paper achievements. Today, they are clamoring for those same paper achievements.

Things like the containment of Ebola that seemed so easy under the man were all dismissed because they claimed they wanted a Singapore.

A person who voted for GEJ in 2011 and voted for Buhari in 2015 is worse than someone who voted Buhari in 2011 and voted for Buhari in 2015. The former has a damaged cerebrum. The latter doesn't have one.

An example of someone who supported GEJ in 2011 and didn't in 2015 is Ameachi. Yet in 2015, it is on record that Ameachi confessed to not knowing that trains operated in Nigeria. It is on record.

Question 3: Agreed PMB is incompetent? But Was GEJ not incompetent?

This is the meaning of incompetence:

"not having or showing the necessary skills to do something successfully."

That cannot be said of GEJ. GEJ was not incompetent. You could argue that he didn't do enough, but anyone with a shroud of decency and objectivity can actually point to reasons why.

Nigeria's budget in each of GEJ's 5 years was N4 trillion. We used an average of N1.2 trillion for subsidy. He used N1.8 trillion plus for ONLY salaries. He was left to use N1 trillion for the fight against Boko Haram (using dispirited troops, a defense hierarchy inundated with saboteurs, and a ravaged region that didn't support the war); infrastructure; boost the economy; pay other recurrent overheads, such as funding the universities, hospitals, research institutes and the likes; as well as other expenditures too numerous to mention.

Yet he was able to build more universities, expand the transmission and generating electrical capacity, rehabilitate tens of thousands of kilometers of road, revitalize the rail sector, rapidly increase our food sufficiency capability thanks to the agricultural revolutions, grow our economy by an average of 6% and reduce inflation rate; amongst several other achievements.

Anyone who says GEJ is incompetent is M*D! Very M*D!

Anyone who didn't know Buhari will not perform better than GEJ in 2015 deserves to have uninterrupted adult supervision. The person is the very definition of d*mb!

If in 2019, the choice for example is between Buhari and Atiku. A very simple question to decide who to vote for is, which of these two would I choose to run my business and why?

If for some reason you think both people don't hit the mark, there's an option to take, don't support or vote anyone. YES. That's an option.

I have more respect for people who decided not to vote in 2015 than those who decided to vote Buhari because "although Buhari was not an option, GEJ was also not an option." STUPID*TY.

2011: GEJ-22M, GMB-12M
2015: GEJ-12M, GMB-15M

That's why I laugh at people who say they can simply remove GMB like they "removed" GEJ.

GMB has 12M assured voters who would ALWAYS vote for him, REGARDLESS OF WHAT HE DOES. Even if he sells Nigeria on eBay, not one of those voters would vote anyone else in 2019.

GMB with his power of incumbency and rigging only has to frustrate the politics of any of his challengers. Just wait until the tail end of 2018. All these leeway everyone has given him, where he reinstates a criminal and everyone is scared to call his name; there's fuel scarcity and reintroduction of fuel subsidy and everyone is scared to call his name although he is the Minister of Petroleum. He'd double down on it to crush the politics of his opponents, and nothing will happen.

They've already gagged the media. Phone-ins are all screened. It is only online that there's so much Buhari apathy. Offline, the radio and tv programs that used to spur reactions have all been cut to size.

Buhari losing in 2019 would be much more difficult than GEJ losing in 2015.

He was left to use N1 trillion for the fight against Boko Haram (using dispirited troops, a defense hierarchy inundated with saboteurs, and a ravaged region that didn't support the war); infrastructure; boost the economy; pay other recurrent overheads, such as funding the universities, hospitals, research institutes and the likes; as well as other expenditures too numerous to mention.

Yet he was able to build more universities, expand the transmission and generating electrical capacity, rehabilitate tens of thousands of kilometers of road, revitalize the rail sector, rapidly increase our food sufficiency capability thanks to the agricultural revolutions, grow our economy by an average of 6% and reduce inflation rate; amongst several other achievements.

Anyone who says GEJ is incompetent is M*D! Very M*D!

lmao.....this joker said GEJ wasn't incompetent....

Even all your mindless and thoughtless essays are a reflection of your own mental incompetence..

deomelo:



What are the issues and who did you put in offices to address and find solutions to your issues? Are they not PDP/ APC?



Try shut up next time if you have nothing better to talk about.

Unfortunately the gravity of burning national issues is lost on you as you can't see beyond party affiliations hence your always skewered albeit myopic defence of even the most incredulous notions. I don't have the time now to start adult education with you. You can crawl back into your hole now.
