I inherited empty treasury - as if others before him did not also inherit empty treasury.

Age is a limitation to what I can do - as if he did not know before he asked to be voted president.

Nigeria is in debt - as if there's any country that is not in debt.

The worst thing a leader can do to his subjects is show them signs that the leader is not worth being a leader.

Baba has shown every sign that he did not expect to become president, he was not prepared for the job, he has no great positive changes to offer Nigeria.

you hit the nail on the head.. PMB is , was , not prepared.. he is using this period to prepare ..quite astonishing yes, Nigeria is in debt, realistically so, with so much infrastructural deficit , 53% wage increase since 2010, bogus cost of governance and of course corruption, the country will no doubt hit the ground..but the good side too was that GEJ laid good foundation for economic growth and improvement on infrastructure... Let PMB build on these...agric, roads, education , healthcare , industrialization etc OBJ and GEJ had already done the paperwork and some foundation...

I don't like when Nigerians reference Reagan. Reagan was a terrible president. He was very good for the mostly rich white elites. He sold arms to Iran (read about the Iran Contra) he flooded black neighbourhoods with crack. He was against the poor, he was a known racist. He was a mediocre president and African leaders shouldn't look up to him.
As for Buhari and his slowness, you'd think that somebody who has been running for office since 2003 would hit the ground running. Nigerians voted for the lesser of two evils, that is not how to move a country foward, it's up to the people to break free from the control of the elites and put foward a candidate from among themselves. APC belongs to very corrupt persons, Tinubu, Saraki, Amaechi, Atiku etc, Nigerians can pretend all they want, they must face the reality, the reality is that APC and PDP are one and the same. One just had better strategy on how to get to the source of money which the other has been enjoying since 1999. Forgive the typos, I'm at work.

Taniods relax. We that voted for him should be the one complaining. Progressives are intellectuals.

We don't have to rush on issues so that we can fillfull our promises to Nigerian. Rant for all I care. The pace is good.

*u should have exercised patience with GEJ(clueless man)

*imagine urself telling the driver of a particular vehicle that he does not know how to drive well, that he should come down so that u will drive, only to mount the wheels and begin to learn the rudiments of driving.( You are stagnant, u aint moving yet) what do u call that?


*PMB is very slow, and he has done absolutely nothing about it,

*APC is a scam, my only prayer is that they will bring us out of this mess.

Now listen.

*GEJ didn't change the price of oil

*GEJ didn't reduce the capacity of oil sold per day.

*GEJ didn't ask the chinese to stop buying our crude( they buy more than 50%)

*GEJ wanted to save during the rainy day( he wants to save the Excess crude account).

*GEJ borrowed money during his last days in office because of the above point ^^^, thus, couldn't save anything.(If they had allowed them to save, they wouldn't have borrowed)


*APC and rotimi Amaechi opposed to it ( let us share this money among the states, work with it now that we have it and then make profits from it, that was their call)national Assembly supported them

*^^^ GEJ and okonjo refused until it tore PDP apart, and APC was very happy.

*APC took over, nigeria found itself in the worst financial mess, and they are blaming PDP.

*APC is just reaping the fruits they sowed in other to tear other houses apart.


*my only prayer is that PMB should swing into action Asap and bring us out of this mess.


* the only time we can hold our leaders accountable is when we really know what went wrong. And we must hold them accountable no matter what, we must not justify why they couldn't do what we elected them to do. If they could not do it, why then did we elect them in the 1st place

* my point is?

PMB is very slow and should pick up Asap. We don't ve to defend him.

I am not one of those who doesn't know that our governors led by Amaechi were behind the depletion of the ECA.

I also know about the difficulties in selling our crude.

However, anyone that knows the depth and etiology of Nigeria's problems can permit the man a little time to settle and do some internal and backroom work before the criticism starts.

I believe he won't fail us.... yes, he's being kinda slow, but somehow, I believe he'll be better than what we've been having... he has not stayed 1 full month so we shouldn't be too fast and write him off.

God bless Nigeria.

Baby, pls understand that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. its only a lazy farmer that always complained of his tools (instrument).
How do you start a journey with incessant excuses and complains
This is not time for campaign and promises. Trust Nigerians, once they loss their patience, pass vote of no confidence on you then you're gone. If you like, turn workaholic overnight, you will only be struggling to redeem your battered image. That's what happened to GEJ.

LET BUHARI RESIGN AS FOREIGN AFFAIRS MINISTER, CULTURE AND TOURISM MINISTER (in one cloth), STOP TRYING TO SHOW US PICTURES AND START WORKING. Is this too much to ask for
Re: No Excuses, Mr President - Daily Independent by optimismlaz(m): 11:14am On Jun 23, 2015
Change was a scam, disappointment and regrets await. Transformation will be better than change. PMB may not be the cause but Amaechi, Mr BAT and many others around him may make this government a joking stuff. Nigerians are waiting.

It's crystal clear already that Nigerians has nothing to gain or benefit from dullard lead administration...
Security: during their campaign all their focus was on security which they believe is their biggest tool they can use to bring down Gej administration which work for them perfectly... since they came into power more than 500 Nigerians has lost their lives to boko haram and yet wat he could say is "there is a limit to wat i can do at72" my question is this old man didn't knew he was 72 before he offer to govern Nigeria?
Where do we go from here? This administration has failed already even before they start book mark and quote me in future

A competent leader wouldn't have left us with a record breaking deficit in history with no money in the treasury, we have to support him for the first 100days and after then if he did not achieved anything, we can now criticize him.


*it is better we criticize and pressure him to do something now b4 that 100days, than after the 100 days,( na we go de loose ooh) no time.

*a good and competent leader (PMB) should know that the empty treasury was not GEJ's doing(he also inherited an empty treasury).

*a competent and a good leader should know that his party APC with the help of 5 defected governors and the help of the house, even PMB himself blackmailed the past govt into sharing the money realized from from the sale of excess crude,as proposed to saving it for the rainy DAY.

*a competent leader PMB knew that Nigeria is sole dependent on sale of crude.

* a competent leader PMB should know that the past administration did not change the prices of crude, or so he thought, and then promised to reverse it during his campaign promises.

*a competent leader PMB also knew that we could not sell the quantity we used to sell because of the price slash. thus should ve mapped out ways to mop up funds.

*a competent leader PMB also knew that the past govt didn't ask the chinese to stop buying our crude( they buy more than 50%) thus,should know that the treasury should be empty.

*a competent leader should know that he can not fulfill his promises to us during his campaign with an empty treasury, thus, should be doing something by now to see that he fulfills it other than snapping pictures all over the place.

*a competent leader should know that the treasury shouldn't have been empty if they hadn't blackmailed the past govt into sharing the excess crude money to states and parastatals after their initial yearly budget. Thus emanating to last minute borrowing.

*a competent citizen like u and I should know that, no matter the circumstances, that we should always HOLD the people we elected accountable for every minute they spend and every dime they spend.

*competent citizen like u and I should also know that, we could not ve voted an incompetent leader.

* I am not in any way supporting GEJ, but we have to face reality and the truth
