I read the statement credited to Presidential Spokesman Segun Adesina advocating that President Muhammadu Buhari, his boss should seek reelection in 2019 and even assured him of victory.
One of the problems with public administration in this country is the attitude of those around the corridors of power and their shameless sycophancy. It is only a sycophant that will suggest that a president, that not only failed woefully within two years of assuming power but also is caught up with the challenges that comes with his age as a 74 years old.
FEMI STATEMENT INSULTING ON NIGERIANS
I find it insulting on the intelligence of Nigerians that instead of the President Aide to advice his boss to consider bowing out in honor in 2019 if he wouldn't for the sake of his ego step down now, Femi instead is already pushing him to seek reelection, thereby exposing the President to further ridicule and a potential disgraceful defeat.
For the sake of posterity, the President has been battling ill-health since the first quarter of 2016. He has gone on medical trips to London for a record 5 times and spent a cumulative 82 days for this cause between the said period and now, the longest being the 50 days he spent in the first quarter of this year 2017.
WE CAN'T CONTINUE TO FUND HIS MEDICAL BILL:
In September 2016 alone, Buhari media Aide Shehu Garba admitted that the President spent a whopping N20,000,000 to treat his ear alone, even though Nigerians believed that the money expended was in the region of £3-£6Million, yet the quoted amount is too exorbitant when one consider the high level poverty rate in the country and the fact that N1,000,000 is considered a luxury for an average Nigerian. More worrisome is the fact that the President men never showed invoices or receipt to back up their N20,000,000 claim.
Only a couple of days ago, government spokesman Alhaji Lai Mohammed came out to tell Nigerians bluntly that the administration will not disclose what was expended on the President in his 50 days medical sojourn in the UK, a statement any rational being will consider insulting considering that the administration came on the change mantra and pledged transparency, as well as the existing Freedom of Information Act that was passed and practised during the PDP administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.
We cannot afford to be paying from the meagre resources of the country for the unending health challenges of the President. It is a shame that even the President admitted of returning to London to continue where his doctors stopped and Nigerians money in the range of millions will be expended on that trip. Such a lifestyle cannot be sustained for another 2 years not to talk of an additional 4 years.
BUHARI'S 2019 EXIT IS SACROSANCT
I wish to add that Nigeria constitution grants executive power on the President, it therefore means that the President must up and fit to perform his mandate, there is no room for part time or ceremonial presidency in Nigeria and we can't smuggle it in. It is either the President quit and face his health challenge or he remains in power and honorably bow out at the expiration of his mandate in 2019, this is what Nigerians expect of him, this is what is fair to him.
The President must bow out in 2019, he has made history by leading the country as both a military man and a civilian, he has made history has the first opposition politician to defeat a sitting president and ruling party in Nigeria, but he has largely failed in his duties, his health is posing a big challenge both to him and to the purse of Nigeria, the only honourable thing is for him to exit after the expiration of his term in 2019. Anything other than this will lead to his disgrace at the poll in 2019. Nigerians are prepared for this patriotic task.

There is corruption everywhere in the world. The difference between other climes and our is that ours became official. Stealing of public funds was no more an act of corruption as declared by the then President. Nigeria is gradually returning to the era when public officials steal our common patrimony with fear,caution knowing that there will be consequences if caught just as it is with corruption perpetrators in other countries. It's no more an official policy that Stealing if public funds is not corruption. It's corruption now! goodguygonebad:

Here we go again...
Firstly, our reserve wS inherited at $30billion and it has never grown beyond that. In fact, it went down as at September... How much is in our ECA despite the oil benchmark set at $38 per barrel and oil has been selling above $50 per barrel for almost 6 months in a stretch? This is a government that has increased our debt beyond measure, salaries are paid through borrowing and NOT from government revenue. The government can't deny this...
While BH has been dealt with, other aspects of our lives suffers. The economy is in shambles, dollar is selling at a rate more than where we were in 2015. Lots of jobs have been lost and commodities have skyrocketed. Inflation is at double digits and GDP growth is in shameless negative.
How much is a cup of garri pls? you missed the killer punch. whioe bh has been death with fulani herdmen rose to the number 3 spot(not 4) in the global terrorist ranking. +1-1=? |

I'm neither a supporter of Buhari nor Jonathan but it's so obvious you're an APC e-warrior. As for me, I would still prefer the 16 years of looting with every thing in normal places to 2 years of your so called good governance where a common man cannot afford to feed on 3 square meals. Can you give what you don't have? No. If you don't know how Nigeria got into suffering, would anything you say about it be correct? Most unlikely. So where you need to start from is to study and find out the root cause of the economic hardship in Nigeria. When you get your facts, then we can continue. I can offer you several pre May 29,2015 materials on the subject to help but Google will do better. Economic experts across the divide including Okonjo-Iweala already declared as at that time that the hard times will happen. If you don't have a good perspective on the background of the problem, how can you hold a sound opinion on the subject matter? 1 Like |

Buhari is Strongest Antj-Corruption proponent among our politicians. The itching fingers can't come back yet. No, we can't allow that. Let's have straight 8years of a No TO CORRUPTION government. Buhari is the only one we can
trust with that.
But his incompetence will open the door for a lot of corrupt practices unknown even to himself. When Buhari was healthy as petroleum minister , money went missing so also as ptf man , money went missing so you can imagine what is going on now in a bigger pool and with him sick. Buhari is not a man with attention to details even in a healthy state What is happening now is that he is shielding his corrupt men so that it won't be that ApC is also accuse of corruption. Massive corruption is going on but among very few people. case in point : a permanent secretary was sacked for using his companies to execute inflated contract. But name of the p.s and ministry was not mentioned . Neither was efcc involved . But I understand your point : you are also eating and change of guard may mean end of road for you. Am yet to see a politician and their numerous with clean sheets . You all are filthy guys . Saying PDP is evil, corrupt etc is like an armed robber calling for the head of another armed robber just because he has the police as friends who covers his track . I have not seen a Nigerian honest at doing government job . I have not seen a Nigerian politician whose source of wealth is not from stolen funds directly and indirectly. Only a fool and the gullible will believe you guys in the helm today are against corruption.na lie you lie . You are all filthy . 1 Like |

Shared on palmchat I'm quiet sure you have not recovered from the last elections. Your party PDP and you did online polls last week and as at the last time i checked President Buhari's APC won. While not wait till 2019 before talking on behalf of yourself & yourself alone rather than saying Nigerians. 1 Like |

TonyeBarcanista:
Here we go again...
[s]Firstly, our reserve wS inherited at $30billion and it has never grown beyond that. In fact, it went down as at September... How much is in our ECA despite the oil benchmark set at $38 per barrel and oil has been selling above $50 per barrel for almost 6 months in a stretch?[/s] This is a government that has increased our debt beyond measure, salaries are paid through borrowing and NOT from government revenue. The government can't deny this...
While BH has been dealt with, other aspects of our lives suffers. The economy is in shambles, dollar is selling at a rate more than where we were in 2015. Lots of jobs have been lost and commodities have skyrocketed. Inflation is at double digits and GDP growth is in shameless negative.
How much is a cup of garri pls? |

This article would have made sense if it were written with an open and apolitical mind, and of course with better reasons. |
