when he said that ministers are noise makers? That was a joke actually. You know Nigerians, like I keep saying, need to understand the kind of President that they have. President Buhari is a man with a lot of humor. There is no dull moment when you are around him. He likes to crack jokes, makes people laugh and relax. That is his style and you can’t change him. So, when he speaks like that, it evokes laughter all around and it eases tensions. He was also once a minister.

JAMANZE:
All what you said bothers on the body language which is the only thing APC and your government gas been deceiving us with. Am yet to see something like buhari has
1) approved the construction of bla bla bla
2) awarded contract for bla bla bla
3)attracted investment of billions of dollars
4)has positioned industries for greater employment opportunities.
etc
in fact I can go on and on. the only thing APC is good at is story telling. liars.
soon what happened to morinho and Chelsea will happen to APC folloqwrs

Thank you!

APC, party of professional liars and career propagandist.

"...who doesn't see that the environment is more secured now than it was a few months ago... " and you shall remain blind, blind and blind.

lawyer:
Too many lies and propaganda in one 7 page epistle to digest especially coming from a man who once denied Buhari didn't make any promise to feed children or pay 5k to the unemployed youths until PDP screamed and pointed out his lies with evidence before he accepted it. Or should you believe a man who flat out lied that the UN summit of Boko Haram that Buhari missed wasn't official until the UN itself came out to debunk Garba Shehu's lies.

This is the same Garba Shehu telling the whole world that We should be grateful Buhari wants to be Petroleum Minister but failed to point out that Section 138 of the 1999 constitution expressly disqualifies the president from Holding any other job

" The President shall not, during his tenure of office, hold any other executive office or paid employment in any capacity whatsoever".

The fact a former dictator Obj got away with it 6 years ago does not make it legal and it's unjustifiable. Has he told us whether the President would present himself for confirmation too or come and defend himself and the petroleum ministry through legislative summons when called upon? Garba should stop Taking Nigerians for granted with his obtuse statements.

Besides what crash course in opposition does APC want to teach PDP? The evil, vile and vengeful wild accusations, propaganda and lies they spew everyday to mock and insult people with rude gifs and memes to fan the embers of hate so that youths would destroy themselves? No thank you. We are not ready to raise False alarms or tweet sensational lies from the stables of El Rufai, Lai Mohammed, Ogbenidipo, Gbenga gold and Omojuwa to stoke up the interest of Ignorant people to a use, curse, swear and pollute the entity.

Talking about Buhari joking, what kind of stupid joke involves insulting he whole South South and South East as the 5% who did not vote for him or calling his future ministers distractions and Noise makers? Even a 6 year old kid would find nothing funny in that and his definition of him being a humorist is poor attempt at covering up his numerous gaffs in 4 months enough to make make Patience Jonathan cringe. He should shove his dry jokes up his 250 cows and start thinking of being A state man to bring the country together instead of polarizing the nation further.

Meanwhile who remembers during the election this horrible paper El Rufai and his minions were circulating. Is this the type of crash course opposition he wants us to learn?

D law, bookmarked for future reference.

Thanks.

Going by the saying that; You should not judge the day by quanty of harvest, but by the number of seeds sowed, I advice Mr President thus;

Since you haven't sown any seed in the energy sector of the economy, it will be immoral to go in for harvest.

Your govt is (rightly)asking Nigerians to give you more time(to be pecient with u) as regards to the BH insurgency. Even though while in the opposition, you not only refused to give the then govt time, but you criticised them more than you criticised BH, we're saying take all the time you need. But you must refrain from making claims of success because facts on ground point in the other direction. And since all your govt has done so far is to change the military chiefs, we can't say you've sown enough seeds.
Goodluck to you my dear president.
God bless Nigeria

Rubbish! What is Fashola,AMaechi doin in that list? people of questionable character.

I work in the procurement dept. of a big manufacturing coy. We have been able to import required raw materials and spares, and even source locally if needs be. Stop fueling untrue "speculations" please. I agree with your other points. The govt can't revive the health, agriculture, education sector overnight tho. It's a step by step thing. We shall get there one day if this present govt continues on the pedestal they have set on. Corruption must be annihilated first, if not, no reforms will happen in those sectors you mentioned. In my state, the governor bought scores of tractors under the guise of mechanised farming, but not one reached the hands of the farmers that really needed it. That's corruption. We gotta kill it first. Ooooooshey!

dirtymoney:
All I see is economic policies that would just increase hardship to Nigerians.
Presently, manufacturers are almost unable to import raw materials and spares.
These policies would have come in handy when the country's health, educational and industrial sector are up and doing and not the reverse.
And come to think of it, why is everything centred around crude oil?
Why can't we focus on other sectors like Agriculture, Mining and tourism?
The government seems to be taking decisions from 20 years projections and not from the current state of the economy.

I like the way Garba shehu writes and addresses facts.

october and we dont have ministers yet.

I am yet to understand Buhari's method of running his government. His body language is sluggish and he has been so slow in making major government decisions that could have helped to improve the nigeria economy

Your gej government attracted investors to the power sector and left it worse, they shared the oil sector among themselves and their cronies, we got proceeds from oil boom but we have not much to show for it. Oga, God pitied us by removing gej out of the way. Goodluck is the worst a president can be abeg

Yeah we heard all that during the last administration but how did it improve the lives of the average man?
The system is faulty and it needs total overhauling either radically or in piece meal as PMB is trying to do.

pls what is that senile President trying to do? talkative

Another round of blaaaaah blaaaaah blaaaaah

Oga, God pitied us by removing gej out of the way. Goodluck is the worst a president can be a beg

gej did nothing yet you and that your terror President started taking glory for improved power supply one week with his administration. anu ohia

We sell well packaged OFADA RICE and IJEBU GARRI, in Port Harcourt. we can deliver anywhere in the NigerDelta states and even beyond. We sell in both small quantities of 1kg and above.
our customers base includes private homes, schools, eateries/fast food, organization and etc.

call 07037632901 for your order.

The next question should have been" Are there no plans for the wailing wailers? Is it part of government plan to see them approach oblivion as they wail on? "

JAMANZE:

Can you now tell me why power supply could not get better till one week after a new government came in? Why are petroleum marketers not going on strike again? Why are many things all of a sudden working? It simply shows that the progress of a country goes beyond awarding huge contracts that end up as white elephants, if the heads of MDAs are not afraid of being punished for inefficiency, they will be inefficient. Gej appointed heads who were clearly not working in the favour of Nigeria, were they punished? No! You just like him because of his geopolitical zone not for his performance. AKUYA!

This im.becile wants to divert attention from the raging BH bomb blasting innocent Nigerians to death. What are we to do with how Buhari selected his ministers? Did u tell u show and why he's been appointing northerners ever since?

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH just WAILING and RANTING RUBBISH. Gone r d days when we hear about millions of imaginary investment, gone r d days of "dem say" contracts awarded. Only LEGITIMATE and SERIOUS minded individual know 9JA is on d right track, certainly not FRAUDSTERS n their sympathisers.

Since oil that constitute 80% of our income is now about $40 per barrel, what policy do you propose that the present administration should implement that would not impose hardship on Nigerians. Reality check, when two third of your income is gone you are already in a state of hardship. There no country in the developed world that will empty their reserves to make up the difference. They will embark on structural reforms to bring down expenditures which is a form of hardship and investments to generate alternative sources of income or ways to increase revenue for the existing avenue which is another form of hardship because you invest from your savings which you should have used meet your present needs.

To cut the long epistle short, Buhari is still in the process of getting the country in the order he would like it to be.....but does that mean that every other aspect of the economy et al must hold on till all the money holes are plugged? That can take years. These so called trails may even last beyond his tenure. Getting back stolen funds from those thieving white men who knew that the funds were stolen in the first place isnt a walk in the park...

I work in the procurement dept. of a big manufacturing coy. We have been able to import required raw materials and spares, and even source locally if needs be. Stop fueling untrue "speculations" please. I agree with your other points. The govt can't revive the health, agriculture, education sector overnight tho. It's a step by step thing. We shall get there one day if this present govt continues on the pedestal they have set on. Corruption must be annihilated first, if not, no reforms will happen in those sectors you mentioned. In my state, the governor bought scores of tractors under the guise of mechanised farming, but not one reached the hands of the farmers that really needed it. That's corruption. We gotta kill it first. Ooooooshey!

One big manufacturing firm whose raw materials is probably not on CBN's list of items not eligible for fx.
Well am into finance and I come face-to-face with importers and customers who carry out invisible transactions/payments.
Now let me give you an insight into what they are facing...
Before now, you could transfer up to a maximum of $10,000 directly from your domiciliary account per day irrespective of whether your account was funded by cash or an inflow.
Now, you can't make transfers except if the funds in your account was transferred from abroad.. You cant make deposit into your domiciliary account and at the same time cannot seek CBN intervention if the product you are importing is no CBN's list of items not eligible for FX via bidding.
So, with this the only option you have is the BDC guys who will sell FX to you at a rate that is N(20-30) higher that CBN's prevailing rate.
That leaves you with no option than increasing the price of your final product which translates to a higher prices of finished products in the market. Mind you 8 out of 10 products customers bring in FX intervention requests for are usually on CBN's list of items not eligible for FX.
Now, we had a case of one lady who was applying for admission to run a Phd with one university abroad. The university advised her to wire about $150 for admission processing. She/we could not attend to her request because
1. She did not have a domiciliary account that was funded via a wire transfer from abroad.
2. She was just applying for admission, hence dont have the necessary documents that would have be used to process an invisible transaction via CBN intervention and the university does not accept payments via card or other electronic media.
I have seen students forfeit admission because of this same policy. If the country can not meet up with the raw material needs of growing businesses. why place an embargo on the issuance of FX for the importation of such product. If the central bank cannot provide FX for every request, why was the embargo on accepting foreign currency deposits and transfers placed in the first place?
This policy is similar to roofing a house even before the foundation is laid.

Imagine a Buhari as president since 2007 - 2015. There is no doubt our lives would have been much better.

Sai buhari.

If buhari had been president since 2007 and if Nigeria never went through the monumental rot and economic pillaging of the past administration, we would never appreciate what buhari stands for. The only reason Nigerians can appreciate buhari's leadership is because we have experienced the bad and the (very) ugly.

I am very confused with d use of d word manufacturers! manufacturers indeed yet we import almost everything. for ur information they are rather called importers of finished goods or distributors of foreign made goods.
Genuine manufacturers are not complaining. For instance, recently lacasera layed off 700 workers not because of cost of doing biz but because they want 2 enslave d workers. What goods is mtn manufacturing that they are laying of workers? we need 2 view things in d right perspective. tnx
