Did we really overtake them? Our trajectories just intersected; whilst their poverty level is reducing, we seem to be in an upward trajectory. We were actually moving in opposite directions.

We know the region drawing us back. We need to remove this cancer and let them wallow in the poverty that they are used to and only then can we progress.

Capital lie. Are they saying Nigeria is poorer than Zambia, Somalia, Benin, Tanzania and the likes, Nepal, Tahiti and the likes? Hell no. I know Nigeria is poverty striken but not on the scale of no one. Different organizations releasing different result to make us feel they exist. I totally disagree.

I am very sure majority of us commenting here will still vote for buhari. People just cast their votes at polling units without putting into consideration the growth of the society, thereby giving room for under-development. If you guys really want this country to work and move forward, we all need to vote in credible people with good portfolios. But the reverse is the case in Nigeria where people prefer to vote in hyenas instead of human beings and that same voter will tell you over his dead body will he/she vote for a human being that he/she will vote for the hyena. Then they will still expect development, its not possible. Expect more killings in the north(east, west and central).
You guys have not seen anything.

Let this fact not go without being said:

PDP (during her 16yrs in power) truly REDUCED poverty enmass, because numerous Nigerians escaped extreme poverty with many becoming intact rich. The facts are there. I am not a member of any political party, never, but PDP alleviated many people out of poverty for sure.

On the other hand; APC-led Federal Government has INCREASED poverty massively across the regions of Nigeria. This may not be intended by Buhari and his team, but it remains the fact on ground for the moment.

A spade is a spade!

Only 3 years of APC and see where we are.

They say no corruption but subsidy payments have increased to billions per day.

The Tinubus have never been richer

Killings have never been this high since the civil war

Lawlessness was never this pervasive

And we want to still elect these same folks?

If we do, not via rigging, Nigerians will surely deserve whatever follows. I'll turn my back on the country completely.
