The APC party chieftains should tell the president elect to look inward and generate revenue to finance his projects & programs . Ask Tinubu how he survived the draconian era of Obj without stress ,it was through financial ingenuity ..there is money in Nigeria but not well circulated,please tax the taxable and do great work for us or else we push out APC in 2019 sefini.

Amazing, do you know what you are talking about? Are you calling for more taxes? Many Nigerians, well those in formal employment , already pay high taxes with little to show for it and here you are calling on the government to tax us some more. Enyia take it easy o.

Believe it or not, this is how APC will spend the next four year..

Giving excuses and excuses for their failure and blaming it on PDP

You make it sound as if by listing this country's challenges Buhari is doing something novel. Identifying challenges is nothing, all the past governments did that too. At this point Buhari should be educating Nigerians on the measures he will take in dealing with the challenges, and by this I mean the practical steps he plans to adopt, not all this rhetoric we hear in the press.

Shifting his ground on promises made or compromising keh? No no no, fisrt impression lasts longer. People have built their trust and confidence in Buhari based on his promises.. What he thought could be fixed within few days... What he thought failure to achieve was as a result of someone else being the president. People are waiting patiently to see the wonders not to hear stories

Another day another excuse from baba one chance...

The man just dey wake up. This one chance manifesto flipping Daura magician is not serious. The oil price has been dwindling before you were chosen as the flag bearer, it was dwindling when you made the promises so you got no excuse. You made these promises in the middle of the oil crises meaning you had an idea and knew you could handle it so quit giving us excuses damn it. I have read more than 5 threads with different excuses since he won the election. Nigerians will not take it. Yes I am an apc member but this excuses are annoying.

GMB was addressing NASS members during their induction course, where he mentioned 8 challenges that his administration will face on assumption of office. These include Falling oil prices, Insecurity, Youth Unemployment, Power, De-industrialization, Environmental Pollution in ND, Rebuilding of ravaged NE, etc.

Typically, though, the media has singled out Falling Oil Price so as to create a sensational headline. Baba is not making any excuses, he was simply being pragmatic and calling on the Legislature to join/support the Executive as developmental partners to tackle these 8 challenges.

GMB simply highlighted Challenges, something every corporate leader (whether in private business or public service) does. You need to be objective about the issues, so you can come up with the right strategies to tackle them. I'm sure most of you will learn this as you become leaders.

Stop commenting based on headlines, please always read the body of the article. I still believe GMB/APC administration (with $60 oil price) will be miles ahead of GEJ/PDP administrion (with $110 oil price).

Many times he said it, many times we heard. Once you start singing it then it becomes an excuse. You don't assume a position to lounge. You assume a position to face challenges and fix them, we have heard. Compare these two sentences and tell me which one sounds more encouraging.

A. I became a captain of this ship meeting it in a terrible state with so many problems and so far and the resource to fix it is scarce my people. They are many challenges and resources are scarce but we will try, nothing is assured.

B. We all know that this ship is in a terrible state, we will not let it sink, we have to give it our all together as a team we will fix this ship, we must cos the success of this journey depends on this ship, in the face of scarce resources to fix it we all must be smart and innovative, together as a team we shall conquer this mess. We must.

READ THE ARTICLE, IGNORE THE HEADLINE.

GMB never said he is going back on any promises, but stated common sense which is that plans made with 2 naira in mind will be more challenging to achieve when at the end of the day, you earn only 1 naira through no fault of yours.

Hopefully when our stolen $20b is returned by GEJ and his cronies among other funds, even more can be done by the General to rebuild Nigeria after 16 years in PDP's wilderness.

How much was oil price during his campaign?

Good thing, he has promised to stabilize world oil price, so his highlighting it as a challenge is strange.

Oga Buhari, you can actually increase your resources by opening up new avenues of earning through Agriculture, manufacturing, and making our refineries work. So that you can save the billions spent on fuel importation for spending on infrastructure improvement.

In as much as I believe in the integrity of the general, I. don't want to believe he is giving us excuses for a case of non-performance.



I think he is saying it so that nobody sees him as God as many have been made to believe.

Who made them see him as god if no he himself and his party? with all the sugarcoated promises during his campaign, didn't he realise then that oil prices were falling?talk is really cheap indeed.
For the sake of Nigeria I pray he succeeds though.

Re: Falling Oil Prices Threaten My Agenda — Buhari by Nobody: 3:47pm On Apr 30, 2015
Dear Naija, good day. I am still on recess following the heavy intelligent online warfare fought to save Nigeria from an incompetent and highly corrupt governance ever witnessed in the history of Nigeria.

Fulfillment of promises is gradual and not automatic. Also promises are fulfilled when factors militating against are eliminated. It is only a mediocre and somebody suffering from dearth of intellect that will expect a battered, mismanaged and highly corrupt system to start delivering dividends of political investment or trust overnight.

This morning, Kogi State, a PDP state planned to cut civil servants salary by 40%. Osun state, an APC state cannot pay salary for months. There are other states in Nigeria that cannot pay salary. Apart from states benefiting from derivation, I am yet to see a state in Nigeria that can pay salary regularly as at when due without a loan and still execute capital project. It is not possible. The is caused by dwindling oil price.

Your GEJ with Yar'adua inherited over $50 billion dollar with more money coming in regularly with very high crude oil price for six years. It is pertinent to note that Abacha government left huge loans inherited from previous government with external reserves lower than $6 billion. The national wealth Yar'adua and GEJ met was created by OBJ despite heavy spending on Power and other infrastructure. GEJ will be leaving Nigeria with debt for new government and future generation to pay. If you minus the reserve from the debt, then we are in trouble as nothing will be left in the reserve, what you will have is only debt. Buhari is inheriting debt. This is further worsened by the low oil price and the economy overheated by states that cannot pay salary.

Shut up fool

We didn't vote for him to turn Nigeria to paradise over night

If your clueless Jonathan was unable to use $150 per barrel to improve our social infrastructures and other capital projects as a result of corruption, then we Nigerians won't expect Buhari with $45-50 per barrel to turn Nigeria to paradise.

All we need him to do is to put the right people in the right places.

All we need him to do is saying the right thing at the right places

All we need him to do is to restore our national integrity among other nations around d world which is gradually becoming a reality now

All we need him to do is exactly what is doing by picking up a newspaper himself and read so as to know what is happening on our streets. No special advisers' lies.

We voted him cos he looks and talks presidential

We voted him cos Badluck Jonathan and his likes from a part of this country need to know that Nigeria is not all about them.

We voted Jonathan out cos we hate to see our first lady embarrassing us with her unguarded utterances.

We voted for him so as to send your freaking Badluck Jonathan packing and his corrupt cronies from East of Nigeria who have all destroyed Nigeria economy and national unity.

We voted him out cos we other Nigerians have had enough religious and tribal division.

We voted Buhari to give us that sense of sanity which we had lost during Badluck Jonathan administration.
