Malik Shabbazz Abdulmalik from Facebook: THE ANTECEDENTS OF MUHAMMED BUHARI: THE LIES TOLD AT CHATTAM HOUSE - PART 3 “From the time they came to power with promises of “restoring the economy”, nearly half a million workers have lost their jobs”. Those are words of the Mobilisation Committee of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC). It can be found on Bulletin No. 1, of 1984. When General Muhammed Buhari became Head of state, something dramatic happened: The price of Nescafe (medium size) was N1.00 (in 1983, but by the end of 1984 it was N6.00; Tomato puree (standard size) was 50K!, by the end of 1984 it was N1:50k; sugar moved from 70k to N3.50; Detergent (small size) moved from 30k to N1.50k; Beer (standard) moved from 72K to N1.50k; bag of rice moved from N80.00 to n250.00: Lactogen (medium) moved from 5.00 to N16.00; NAN moved from N6.00 to N22.00. A survey conducted by the National Concord Newspaper in January 1985 showed that baby food items rose by more than percent following the announcement. There is need not to mention the fact that Muhammed Buhari's regime was a levy infested regime. For example in Imo state, levies and endowments became a means of passing onto the citizens the responsibility of generating revenue which is the function of the Government. Although, this was not effective in Northern states. In Imo state, citizens are regularly expected to contributed, in addition to income tax, among other things: 1. Education Levy; 2. Development Levy; 3. Sports Endowment; 4. Blood Bank. Nigerians became their own Government, and their own vampires. It is noteworthy to state that the Imo State Government announced that it was capable of paying workers their salary as when due - monthly. Also, by virtue of the indirect levy called the Imo formula, workers were expected to be 'content' with a percentage of their salary, which was not less than 75 percent per month. States like Rivers State, had their own 'levy wahala'. As the Government introduced a 'sanitation levy' of N600.00 per year per industrial establishments, and N24.00 per residential 'room'. That is huge! (See the GUARDIAN of January 26, 1985. BUHAR AND THE NUMBER OF PERSONS RETRENCHED PER STATE and INSTITUTIONS: Anambra - 1,642 Cross River State - 503 Imo State - 7, 143 Rivers State - 148 Ondo State - 3. 215 Oyo State - 10,000 Ogun State - 3, 433 Lagos State - 236 Bendel State - 8, 891 Kwara State - 6, 003 Niger state - 2, 570 Benue State - 6, 553 Borno State: 461 Bauchi State - 433 Sokoto State - 458 Gongola State - 10,000 Kaduna - 4, 847 Abuja (FCT) - 275 Police - 2, 621 Ministry of External Affairs - 116 Ministry of Security Organisation - 64 Airways - 615 Federal Media House - 873 National Assembly NEPA - 625 Nigerian External Telecommunications - 529 Federal Civil Service - 3,255 Aviation - 1,009 Central Bank - 140 FEDECO and CODE of Conduct Bureau - 2,000 Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) - 600 Nig, Institute of Foreign Affairs - 40 Kaduna Refinery - 86 Nigerian Ports Authority - 2,000 Fellow countrymen, please take some time and think! Ask questions! What is this 'change' chanted by Muhammadu Buhari, and his blind followers. The change we seek is already here! |

I wish you will balance this expose up by stating the prices of these same items when GEJ took over power & what they are now? For example, what is the Naira/Dollars exchange rate when GEJ came into power & what is it now? What is the value of (stock) market capitalization when this administration came into being & what is it now? How much was the foreign reserve in 2010 & what is it now? I ain't saying GMB is better or worse, am only saying you should be fair in your assessment by considering the 2 sides. |

Eggcelent: I hope U know GEJ took over a lot on his shoulder juts like Obama did. But U can never ever compare America with Nigeria. We are still growing. America has attained menopause or almost. D naira/dollar shift is not just here. Even Russia isn't left out. Dis man don over try O. Let's give him some credit. He's just a little slow, that's all |
