Pukkah:
On a less serious note, the President should pay more attention to the way he talks.What's 'shooting gun'?

Pukkah: At least the President has admitted that he can't perform magic because there's no peace in the country.

Well, he should remember that all the problems were present before he became the President and he did promise to solve them.

He should also be told that effective governance is the solution to the problems he identified - militancy, kidnapping and Boko Haram. It is not the absence of those problems that will make him govern effectively. Or what did he achieve in Bayelsa where there was no violence?

If his expectation is that those identified problems must disappear first before he can govern well then he can as well throw in the towel.

Again, he can't perform magic in terms of governance because of problems but he's performing magic in terms of spending? Has his budgetary expenses reduced because he's not been able to deliver? How come the violence didn't stop him from travelling with several aides to Israel and other countries?

Is it violence and kidnapping that has made him unable to fight corruption? Why are the problems facing Nigeria getting worse? People sell kids, sell human parts and do all sorts of outrageous things to make money.

On a less serious note, the President should pay more attention to the way he talks. What's 'shooting gun'? The part where he called on the youths is also disjointed.

Akpa ife: wht do u fools expt him 2 say when hausa r bombing every where if u r a worker will u go n work there so when there is peace there is progress

blame northerns nt GEJ

paker002: dem dey talk nigeria dis one dey talk lekki..... you see your sef??

ITbomb: The President is making sense ,
All he is saying is that all warring parties should come for dialogue n negotiations so that we can move forward as a nation.
Militancy was not solve by military power but when the agitators came to the round table and present their matters , why cant Boko Haram if at all they are genuine come to the table with their grievances .
And the Yoruba pen warriors shun ethnicity and move forward to progress

icon aus: [s]In a situation of war, there is lack of growth in all ramifications . Nigeria is like a country in a state of war .This is evident in a war torn countries . Because we have learnt lesson from the civil war otherwise th boko haram menace would have triggered a full blown war .

When Gej inherited power , Boko haram has not been hijacked by politicians hence low level of deadly actions as compared to present day .

It is very clear that some tribes / religion do not want GEJ hence the heightened level of Boko boys . Government is chaneling a lot funds to security which would have been used for developmemt . How do u attract investors when Boko is constantly bombing and killing people for no apparent reasons? Therefore i concur with GEJ , in a situation like this people should not expect miracle .

For people who are making some irrational comments , what happened in the previous governments when Nigeria was not experiencing these kinds of crisis and yet no development ? What do you expect now we have hydra headed crisis manufactured by fellow citizens to make the country ungovernable by the incumbent ? Magic ?

Is not gona work . Nigerians are wiser . GEJ till 2019[/s]

Gbawe:

Dont mind the ethnocentric and bigoted clown. It is clowns like him, because they introduce ethnicity into everything, who will ensure Nigeria continue to host ludicrous jokers and mediocrities as President while others are making progress and moving forward rapidly.

Face the fact the North and the SW introduced tribalism in Nigeria even before independence till date . The same tribalism is not allowing them to give GEJ a chance because he is from the south South.

Lets see how these North / SW will win election without the SE/SS/NC block votes . This is the dawn of a new era . Is good that other minorities are begining to understand the nigerian politics where the North and SW have marginalised other regions for longed and siphoned our resources with nothing to show for their many years in power . The SE had known this for long and had been alone .Thank God for GEJ administration which brought this in to lime light . GEJ did not bring tribalism instead regions who champion tribalism are fighting him because they cannot stand any body outside of the two regions to occupy that highest position - presidency.

GEJ is trying give the guy a break

emmyclassic: Mr President should just go ahead and create anoda ''committee on how to perform Magic"

ilebaami: When you see the posts from these e-warriors condemning GEJ you can't help bUt feel sorry for them. They think that GEJ transformation is an easy feat.

Give GEJ a chance? How many years does GEJ need to do anything tangible?

To warrant or earn the right for a chance?

Please tell us.

You cant stand the truth . It is simple truth .OBJ was in power at a time when other African countries like Ghana and botswana were transforming their various countries and What did OBJ acheived ? Nothing complete nothing and you people did not say anything because he is one of you. Obj ruled for 8 yrs with out basic amenities like water, electricity, good roads, hospitals in short every thing and you people have mouth to castigate GEJ .
