It is because none of you have genuine love for Nigeria. All you guys care about is the love you have for your favorite politicians. Some people's interest is to protect GEJ and PDP image while some others are just here to protect the image of APC and PMB, no real love for the country.

This is why what you see on political section is APC, PDP, IPOB, Afonja, SW, SE, North, GEJ, PMB, Zombie, Wailer etc because that is the only thing you guys care about. I don't think there are up to 1% of nairalanders that care about this country.

Sometimes it is better to even look at boobs in sexuality section than to comment on this section.

You go ad hominem as expected, one thing you should know is I won't come here to spread lies and deceive people cos of stipends you lied about Iweala's statement your soulless soul knows that, the ECA funds brouhaha is well documented governors forced FG to share the money, I expect while you ask what FG did with their share also ask what governors did with their own share, they are still sharing money today why are we not asking questions?

I won't waste my time on a low life propagandist like you, if you think lying and misrepresenting facts is better way for this country I can only wish you goodluck

In the face of the recession Nigeria is currently coming out from, there have been several attacks on the current administration.

Here are 5 indisputable facts before the current government came into power. Recall that as at Dec 2014, oil price was still above $64/barrel.

1. 27 state governors were owing back log of salaries as at May 2015 when this government took over hence the bail out funds approved for governors. Despite this bail out funds, many refused to meet their obligations.

Buhari in ‘bailout’ meeting with governors- June 23; 2015



Why have Governors refused to pay salaries, allowances in spite of bailout funds? - Dec 30, 2015



2. Federal Government was borrowing to pay 2015 salaries.-May 6, 2015

Nigeria borrows to pay salaries with cash crunch worsening. (Vanguard)



3. Oil marketers were owed billions, led to a fuel scarcity that paralyzed Nigeria, even banks were closing before time, telecoms operators were sending texts about expected disruptions (never in Nigeria have this happened until 2015)

Nigeria fuel shortage cripples businesses, banks and flights - 25 May 2015


4. Okonjo-Iweala who many people in the opposition believe would have done better or saved the economy warned of tougher times as oil slipped low to about $76.

Brace for tougher times ahead, Okonjo-Iweala tells Nigerians -NOV 2014



5. Falling Foreign Reserves

Nigeria’s foreign reserves drop to $29.13 billion



With the above facts, every sane discerning mind will see that Nigeria was already in a mess before the change of power.

The question everyone should be asking now is where are the infrastructural developments that can justify all the money Nigeria made in the past 16 years of PDP's rule particularly in the last 7 years of PDP's rule when Nigeria made alot of money from crude oil sales?

my brother, we all know the havoc terrorists caused on oil pipelines and and installations. for almost a year the president had to deal with that issue with oil price going as low as $28/barrel. Now crude oil have started picking up, and we are getting more revenue from diversification efforts, we can see some improvement with Nigeria gradually sliding our of recession. This is not about being a Buharist, we have to be fair. Our National reserves have started growing despite all the harsh conditions, things are gradually beginning to improve. by the end of 2018, much difference would have been notice. All i want now is for Baba to put an eagle eye on desperadoes like Atiku who will do anything to sabotage the government to grab power that he can never reach. Sai baba

progress69:



lied about Iweala's statement? where and how?
besides the issue of ECA sharing have been thrashed over and over again on NL, and even by femi falana.
i won't help educate u, use ur head and phone or laptop to search and read. after which u can decide to believe whatever u want.

sanpipita:


Hasn't this govt been spending too, and paying subsidy illegally I wonder why you guys are fixated on GEJ, is he contesting in 2019, face the failure you voted in and leave GEJ alone, he is miles better than dullard

Johnrake69:


Please stop deceiving Nigerians. Buhari haven't done anything different from previous Governments. Under his administration the cost of governance has gone overboard. Go and look at the budget the FG's recurrent budget has more than doubled.

Where is the national carrier he promised. He told us he would convert the presidential jets to our national carrier, I guess recession affected it's implementation. Buhari funded Boko haram with €2million and now looking for $1 billion to fight same Boko haram.

OAM4J:


Lol. I feel your pain.

It is difficult debating here these days. Reason some of us just read and move on. There are 2 categories of people here that are difficult to debate with. Those who see no wrong with their beloved in power and those who see no good with the ones they dislike in power.

You will only get sentiments instead of logic and objectivity, conjectures / fairytale instead of logic / comon sense and facts.

While we constantly disagreed with each other those days, we never got so passionate to throw away objectivity in our arguments and we would not substitute our personal opinions for facts. And facts must come from reliable and reputable source. We didn't even value wiki links as a reliable source of facts compare to the way people now take a Facebook post or a blog's bedroom conjectures and view points for fact.

And then only sound arguments with facts got liked by others. Imagine instead of someone disputing your post with sound counter argument, he only responded by calling you zombie and yet got many likes.

Believe me you have tried. I have to come out from my ghost mode to make this note.

kobo kobo journalist,
please desist from the blame game. It makes you look stupid and empty. Just advising you.

Jaideyone:
you are very dull. PMB has been spending too. he met the reserves at 28b dollars and it currently stands at 35b dollars. how come the reserve is rising now that oil is lesser than 60dollars and it was falling when oil was between 70-110 dollars under Jonathan? stop being foolish use your brain before you argue

if u are for ur own safety dont utter ds blame tin outside o
nigerians are really angry right now
d only tin dy are waiting for is 2019 so dy can kick ds 404 error out

9jakohai:


We already have the facts sir...the question is....when do you stop blaming and start fixing the problem.

When PMB came into office, the problem were there....and his response was to not appoint a cabinet...leaving the drifting ship in a worse state.

Plus,,,,what is APC's plan to get our economy off oil?

And why didn't you guys deregulate pms...since subsidy is a scam?

progress69:


you have shifted gear from Obama never blamed bah? kotinu

Nigerians or ipod yoots? is it Atiku u want to bring in

Thread for the recipients of N30K allawi. oya tell us about the 1984 recession. Buhari holds a record with the Guiness book of records. The only human in human history to,have led an economy into recession twice even without a WAEC cert

God forbid i engage u. lol

When buhari was making promise opon promise was the op sleeping
I can see that buhari and his bmc are the dumbest of all humans.

emmie14:

Your senses are complete. Thump up because you are talking about individual qualities and capabilities not party. A human being said that Tinubu made him vote for Buhari.

sanpipita:


Guess you are too dumb to realize foreign reserves isn't what you think it is, you probably think it's an account we can withdraw money anytime, I pity ignoramuses like you, reason our foreign reserves is high is cos this govt decided to sale our euro bonds there is nothing magical about what they are doing, our foreign reserves will take a hit once the effects of the sold bonds are gone, we have been here before.

progress69:


lol, bosses! I feel you. sometimes i just usually have their time,
if u want likes on NL this days
just say buhari is mad, Zombie, on any other silly thing, the kids will rush in

i really feel for you
but one good thing that came out of ds stupid politics apc played is that it opened d efulefus eyes dt ds one nigeria ruse is exactly what it is
a ruse

Johnrake69:


You see why you're full of deceit? If the €2million ransom your Buhari paid to Boko haram shouldn't be seen as funding Boko haram, I wonder the rational of you condemning previous govts.

GEJ got matured bashings....not this kindergarten noise u guys make here

Toketimt:


U are right on point however there is need to constantly remind Nigerians where we are coming from knowing fully well that my country men are highly forgetful.
Much is expected no doubt but will take appreciable time.
