100days In Office :the Buhari Effect Vs The Change Agenda;part 1 by Ugik(m): 8:42pm On Sep 04, 2015
100days in office happens to be an American creation that has been adopted by almost all democratic countries around the globe. it was on July 24th 1933 that Franklin Roosevelt while addressing the 23rd congress of American people initiated this particular move although that was not his original motive but along the line it became adopted across the globe. It 's a period he used in trying to set the agenda for the American people during the period of great Depression.He created his famous "NEW DEAL" Agenda for them and within that period, american's were able to get a lease of life because almost everything was shattered. Within that 100days, he was able to make the congress pass upto 15 executive bills for him and till today most of these bills are still subsisting in the USA constitution and it has come to create the basis of Americas democratic empire and across the board in every democratic structure, different countries have tended to see it as worthy to be adopted.

The 100days period is more or less looked at as a period of Agenda setting because of the freshness of the person who is occupying that position straight from the furness and euphoria of victory. The expectations are always high and the president will always be mindful because if he doesn't do anything within that 100days, people's expectations will deciphate at the very rate it had increased during campaign. it strives to show the policy of the government, their direction and policy initiatives. it should be a period the president makes it clear to the people where the thrust of his administration is.

100days in office is not a period of recrimination or carryover of a political campaign. when a government emerges, campaigns are over as they begin now to show people what they want to achieve, where they want to go. its a time they inspire confidence in people and that is what I expect from president Buhari. a political thrust and in all honesty, am yet to understand the direction where they are going with regards to the CHANGE AGENDA.

The significance of the first 100days in Nigeria's political landscape can't be weighed down because PMB as a president ought to have his program plan of action despite whatever the past administration must have done. The focus is now on his agenda, what is his mission and vision? what are his policy thrust? There is need for him to communicate his agenda to the people that brought him in power. Nigeria voted him based on the CHANGE AGENDA.

we must try and differentiate the BUHARI EFFECT which has to do with his personality and body language from his CHANGE AGENDA which are the campaign promises. Now what we have been seeing for 100days is the BUHARI EFFECT,been his character trust and persona and that has virtually led to an improvement in power and distribution of petroleum resources and now we get to see people do things in order.
Aside that, we must understand that these things are going to fizzle out if he doesn't create a solid foundation. I remember tony Blair speaking through Peter Madeleine tellling PMB the 6things that is expected of him to achieve in his first 100days.Why did they talk to him? they were looking at his planned programs of action and the prospect of translating vision into reality. As far as am concerned, President Buhari led government is still living in a nebulous world of electioneering campaign brandishing media talks about those who has stolen our wealth while we have agencies in charge of all that such as the EFCC,ICPC and NPF. i don't want to feel the buhari effect but I want to know what his work out plan to strengthen these institutions are that will enable them fight this war on corruption.

Now, when someone is arraigned for corruption, they will bring their lawyers to court and then the whole gambit of the criminal justice system must be applied because you can not jail anyone just like that..It. would be beautiful if he says, for example, in criminal justice, this is what His government plan program of action is.
If he says he will cut down the number of ministries, by now, we must have known whether we will have 7 ministries or 12. If we are collapsing parastatals, by now we ought to know and get it communicated to us, Nigerians. After his 100Days in office, it's high time President Buhari rides on the crest of the change agenda that brought him into power because very soon, Nigerians will get tired of the BUHARI EFFECT AND PERSONA because that is what is still been felt and face the reality that after 100days,the CHANGE AGENDA is far fetched.

For the past #100WastedDays, Buhari had not taken any single decision that had a bearing on the economy.

What happens to the allocations accruing to the FG for that period?

Are they all gone for salary payment?(Aregbe will say its not enough to even pay one month)
Buhari, pls wake up.

Again, Buhari can't deliver what he doesn't have: ability to move the country forward-economically, socially, and democratically.
