The truth is that a lot of people will never see beyond their nose due to ethnicity and bigotry. Buhari has failed Nigerians and will continue to do so with impunity.
is this your position from the post or a personal prejudice?

it doesn't matter my guy.
Most politicians train their children from birth in other developed countries. GEJ actually has trained all his in Nigeria.

Thanks for your brilliant response cos some would have transferred their kid abroad to continue their studies immediately after adoption.

Governor Ohakim daughter did it(Dr Ada David)

GEJ is a true democrat & he really wanted to serve this great country but the forces around him wouldn't let him. They kept sabotaging his efforts. Most of them are now at the APC camp.

I only had issues with his party cos they didn't do much while in power hence my campaign for a new government.

My friend Nigeria started in 1960 and your Buhari was a president before Jonathan. Are you telling us by 2019, you blame Jonathan. Nigeria should shine their very 2 eyes.

Buhari the hypocrite. He is surely going to destroy nigeria because there are millions of people who are actually deceived by his cunning and subtle approach to things, they will support him to the detriment of this country

What you fail to realise is what you are accusing buhari of is what every leader in Nigeria has done since independence; which is deceive Nigerians. Which is also why the country is in the predicament it is at the moment. Buhari won't be there if Nigerians didn't want him there.

Mr president did appropriately well in the interview except for a couple of flaws. The first I noticed was his acceptance of the "tough luck" situation for those who can afford to send their wards to schools abroad as suggested by the interviewer. This will appear as hope lost among his followers like me but some too, will understand cus it's the truth! People have hopes for this country tru buhari but will hate to feel that they are dashed hopes. The other flaw was saying that by exposing corrupt Nigerians (politicians) and detaining them via corruption agencies was conviction enough! Baba! He should've informed the world through alJazeera that his job as a corruption crusader is to expose corrupt persons and that the judiciary is bestowed with the responsibility of conviction and sentencing and where this has failed, would only help buttress his earlier regret that the judiciary was (is) his biggest headache. #istillstandwithbuhari!
You forgot the part where he said the journalist knows more about his budget than he does, and you also forgot the part where he failed to justify all the funds unaccounted for in his budget.. Plus his insensitive respond to the IPOB question, and his insensitive response to the Islamic coalition...
You can twist the facts as much as you like, if it will make you sleep better at night.

Honestly I'm speechless and sad. Is this really what we deserve as a president. Is this the best this country has to offer ? Are we so evil that we don't have good men and women to manage our affairs ? Is reverend osinbajo no longer representing God and humanity being a learned person and man of God ? And still people praise Buhari like he is our saviour. Can we leave the sentiments and listen objectively to comments of our president about us? A president who confirms that We are disadvantaged because we don't run in his circle, who confirms no interest in listening to yearns of its people whether justified or not. I don't support Biafra but the least he could do to avert an escalation is listen and discuss Nigerians should think long and hard about this inteview and decide what they truly want

After reading your first paragraph, I didn't bother to read on. Did you say Nigeria is now spending less on the Executive because eof reduced ministries?

You may want to check again. That was the question raised a few weeks ago. You reduce ministries but yet overhead and recurrent expenditure for MDAs go up. What kind of abracadabra is that?

Please educate him on what is perceived to be number of ministries, there were 29, then 26 ministries during Jonathan's tenure, with a cabinet of 42 ministers, Buhari has only reduced that number to 24, I wonder if Buhari is being economical with the truth or truly thinks that Nigeri had 42 ministries under Jonathan.

Wailers are wailing! grin

Buhari children commenced their courses before the oil price crash.

Nigeria's tertiary education are not fit for purpose.

Buhari said the government cannot afford to give foreign exchange to study abroad , but those who could afford the rates of exchange for the parallel markets should go ahead and pay.

Interviewer : So for those who cannot afford, its tough luck.

Buhari: We do not have the foreign exchange.


First of all I consider it to be unprofessional and out of order, for the interviewer to bring up the president's children personal / private situation in an interview in order to make her point. Would she like anybody to disclose which country her own children are schooling in a television interview?

1. The interviewer wrongly stated Venezuela and Nigeria has having little oil reserves in comparison to Saudi; well, Nigeria maybe, but we'r still #10 with largest reserves, and Venezuela has more oil reserves than Saudi Arabia. The interviewer was wrong, and the president didn't correct her. I think the lady should have argued along 'production per day'.

2. Buhari got nailed at the school fees thing, he got that wrong: you cannot put importation of toothpicks, rice, and other nonsense in the same bracket as education (foundation, future, progress) -- we do not need further education on why, do we? And his countenance betrayed him there (when the lady asked him about funding for his kids overseas) -- he got it wrrronggggg!

3. He handled the rest pretty well (thereabout).
she meant foreign reserves.. Not oil reserves and all i see is a man trying his best not to slap the interviewer, he was even sweating.. That says a lot
