you are one of the lazy ones who consume trash.

when was I born? let me give you a hint... I was old enough to experience PMB in his first coming.

now, if you had a brain (which I doubt you do), you would do a research to verify my position rather than expose your research laziness.

by taking time to improve your knowledge, you would even get out some salient facts that you can use to support PMB & put in a strong counter argument.

do not be a lazy nitwit...

phemmie06:

For how long will he keep complaining, moreover what has his complaint done

Progressive01:
You are wasting your time. These folks would wear you out with regurgitated gibberish.

We are solidly behind you on your anticorruption crusade Mr President. Any bagger that finds that unacceptable can go live as refugees in Israel. We wont bloody care.

That guy is mentally challenged!

Is this man still blaming his predecessor?

ivandragon:


lol.

they think they are dealing with an arm chair critic.

I often make posts to push them to do just a little research to broaden their 'horizon'.

if they took up my challenge, they would actually get some nice counter points to my positions, but it will also ultimately allow them realise that there is a lot more to governance than just pointing accusing fingers at the past government.

data can be gotten to show that in 1984-85, GMB was able to stem the tide of a recession albeit with draconian policies, a more purposeful 2iC & a less than palatable economy.

but they are just too lazy.

how long will you complain of economic recession?
So Anytime you iPods complain of the economic recession, we will always refer you to how your ineffectual buffoon mismanaged our 30tr naira.
So get use to the excuse

How did you come about your so called 'inflation adjusted' digits? I too was fairly old enough to remember the great economic meltdown of the late 1980's when IBB introduced SAP that wiped out the Nigerian middle class. I dont know except maybe we are not talking about the same period here

ivandragon:


first off, there are softwares that can do your inflation calculation.

but luckily, there are experts who have done research on such matters & so their works can be easily used for guidance.

for instance...

http://inflationdata.com/Inflation/Inflation_Rate/Historical_Oil_Prices_Table.asp

so next time, with all due respect, i would appreciate it if you do not use 'so called' when referring to my post, I am not one of those that pulls out lies from thin air, please.

I usually don't like posting links because I prefer people to take it upon themselves to verify or research contradicting information so as to enrich the discussion & expand knowledge here for the benefit of all. no one is omnipotent.

its true that SAP sounded the death knell for the middle class, but the level of economic shocks was not felt as bad as 84-85...

furthermore, it just goes to show that the problems we face today, didn't start 4 or 5 years ago... or even 16 years ago. so why do some people act like Nigeria came into existence 5 years ago & one man is responsible for our present mess?

the earlier we have a more holistic view of our nation, the earlier we can make the needed corrections.

Nice rant but you try to hide your baseless assertions behind sleek words. Lets assume your so called ' inflation calculating software' were to be correct, with even as high as $65 per barrel as you claim the price of crude was during Buhari's old regime, is grossly insufficient for a country as large as ours. When oil prices were at record highs as in the region of $120-150, the govts of Obassanjo and Jonathan still couldn't use that to make a considerable impact on the economy, so Buhari has a very legitimate excuse for why the economy is in doldrums. Also you cant even begun to Justify the IBB regime's failures. Where were you during the 1986 SAP riots, the economic and political upheaval that followed? Inflation under IBB was worse than what it was under shagari and Buhari

Yarduni:


Why wouldnt he blame Jonathan?

You guys are still the same arm chair critics that will blame IBB, Obasanjo even as far back as Tafawa Balewa for where we are today.

But when Buhari blames jonathan for the mess we are in, you see something wrong. All these arm chair noisemakers, always noise, no substance
