Buhari Will Suprise Nigerians-apc by dunsman(f): 3:36pm On Jul 01, 2015
PMB Will Surprise Everyone
With Uncommon Performance
– APC
By George Agba
— Jul 1, 2015 7:51 am | 1 Comment
Amid widespread views and criticisms
that the President Muhammadu Buhari-
led government has failed to hit the
ground running 32 days after its
inauguration, the All Progressives
Congress (APC) yesterday explained
that the government is being methodic
in its approaches to achieve uncommon
performance that will surprise everyone.
APC national publicity secretary, Alhaji
Lai Mohammed, told journalists at a
press briefing in Lagos that contrary to
some individualized views, the Buhari-
led government had taken some
measures that had endeared it to both
Nigerians and international community.
He said, “It has been about one month
now since President Buhari assumed
office, and I can tell you that there has
been motion and there has been
movement contrary to what is being
peddled in some quarters.”
Mohammed lamented that the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) was bent on
frustrating the APC-led government,
pointing out that the Buhari
administration got the handover notes
from the former government just four
days before the inauguration, thus
hampering its efforts to have a clear
understanding of the position of things
so that the party could map out the
necessary measures to address them.
He said: “If any disease is not
appropriately diagnosed, it cannot be
effectively treated. Any government that
is truly desirous of bringing about real
change will not act hastily and without
the necessary understanding of what is
on ground. Coupled with the delay in
getting the much-needed information,
that takes time.”
On insecurity and the fight against
terrorism, the APC scribe said the
Buhari administration had since hit the
ground running.
“The president had hardly been sworn
into office when he embarked on a
shuttle diplomacy to rally Nigeria’s
neighbours to act as a common front
against the terror group, Boko Haram.
The president travelled to Chad and
Niger, and then hosted a summit of the
Lake Chad Basin Commission that
comprised Cameroon, Chad and Niger,
with Benin also invited.”
Stressing that the fight against
corruption ranks very high on the list of
Buhari administration’s priorities, he
asserted that the fight against terror
cannot succeed without putting an end
to the kind of massive corruption being
witnessed in the country.
He said, “That is why the president also
included it on the wish list he took to
Germany during the last G7 summit.
Thankfully, some Western nations have
now assured the Buhari administration
of all possible assistances in its efforts
to recover the billions of Naira that
spirited away from the public till by
public officers in the immediate past
administration.”
Mohammed recalled that the president
had, on Monday, ordered revenue
generating agencies, including the
NNPC, FIRS, Customs and NPA, to close
all Illegal revenue accounts and to also
remit all funds generated to the
federation account.
“This is a momentous step considering
that those illegal accounts are being
used to siphon public funds. Thanks to
the painstaking efforts of President
Buhari, Nigerians now know that out of
N8.1 trillion generated by the NNPC in
three years, N3.8 trillion of it was not
remitted to the federation account.
“Nigerians now know that the cash in
the excess crude account has been
depleted by $2 billion without
explanation. A panel of four governors
has been set up to investigate what
happened to the money that was not
remitted to the federation account. The
rot met by the Buhari Administration is
sickening, and the president is working
hard to plug all loopholes for siphoning
public funds, in addition to recovering
looted public funds,” he stated.
The APC spokesman added that these
actions were just the beginning of the
fight against corruption in the country
and urged Nigerians to prepare to watch
as events unfold in the anti-corruption
fight in the days ahead.
“It will no longer be business as usual
as the Buhari administration seeks to
make sure that every kobo of national
funds is spent for the benefit of
Nigerians, not to fill the deep pockets of
a few fat cats.”
On the international scene, he also
noted that since President Buhari’s
election on March 28, 2015, Nigeria has
been moving fast to regain its deserved
place in the comity of respected
nations.
According to him, “leaders who once
shunned Nigeria have been inviting
President Buhari to visit their countries.
The latest is US President Barack
Obama who will play host to our
president at the White House on July
20.”
He pointed out that there is no better
indication of how much Nigeria is
regaining its lost glory than the recent
election of former agriculture minister,
Dr Akinwumi Adesina, as the president
of the African Development Bank
(AfDB), the first time Nigeria would be
winning the post in the many decades of
the organization’s existence.
“Recall that Nigeria has never before
led the continental bank despite its
front-line role there. In backing and
campaigning for Dr. Adesina, President
Buhari put his acclaimed sterling
qualities to a global test, and he passed
in flying colours. Adesina’s election is a
testimony to the perception of Nigeria
under President Buhari’s leadership,” he
said. leadership.ng/news/444055/pmb-will-surprise-everyone-with-uncommon-performance-apc

Buhari has already surprised us. 32 days and counting no ministers, turned our legislators into boxers and karate experts, Admitted that he couldn't do much for us as a result of age. Nigerians can't be anymore surprised than this. I REGRET VOTING BUHARI.
Re: Buhari Will Suprise Nigerians-apc by Wildrage: 5:55pm On Jul 01, 2015
Yes, We've seen a lot of surprises already

We are surprise that he is waiting for 100days to publicly declare his assets

We are surprise that Boko Haram is still having their ways unchallenged one month after he was sworn in

We are surprise that the first capital project by this administration is an helipad in Daura

We are surprise that east and west Germany still exist and that Mitchell is the president of the West

We are surprise at the unruly nature of APC legislators and HOR members and that the simplest task of electing leaders has been this acrimonious

We are surprise that we see more pictures of our president attending to mundane issues like tending to his cows than actually concentrating on the job he was elected to do

We are surprise that one month after he was sworn in, he finds it extremely hard go appoint one person from the motley crowd of change agents as the secretary to the fed govt

We are surprise at the way unelected and not yet appointed individuals like Dambazzau are wielding official powers and throwing their weights around

We are surprise that Jega's decision on whom to handover to at INEC was reversed without official explanation

We are surprise that the president could flip flop about serious security directive, No more checkpoints on Monday, checkpoints remain on Tuesday

Some of us are not surprised at the surprises so far.

Dear Comrade, how are you doing?

Have you noticed since you Buhari took over, there are no more reports of fight between Nigerian army and Boko Haram?

Too bad, CHANGE does not always mean PROGRESS.
