*BUHARI OSINBAJO SOLIDARITY FRONT PRESENTS 100 SOLID ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE BUHARI-LED ADMINISTRATION*

POWER, WORKS AND HOUSING

17. Introduction of an improved mechanism for distribution of aid to IDPs in the North East through the establishment of the Special Intervention Programme of the Federal Government. (Door-to-door strategy)

18. Securing Benue And Ending Farmers Herders Clashes:

. January 31: President Muhammadu Buhari wrote a letter to the Senate titled “Re: Report on the Review of the Security Infrastructure on Nigeria on the Emergency Visit to Benue,” enumerating several courses of action that had been taken by the Federal Government since the farmers- herdsmen crisis began.

February 1: Vice President Yemi Osinbajo presided over the meeting of the National Economic Council Working Group on the Herdsmen/Farmers conflicts in parts of the country at the Presidential Villa. A number of State Governors are members of the NEC Working Group. Governors of Adamawa, Ebonyi, Plateau, Kaduna, and Zamfara States, and Deputy Governors of Benue and Oyo States were present. Also in attendance were the Ministers of Agriculture and Interior. At the end of the meeting, the Working Group constituted a Sub-Committee to visit frontline States, and hold consultations with stakeholders on how to end the conflicts. The Sub-Committee will visit Benue, Taraba, Zamfara & Adamawa States, to understand the different conflict dynamics and develop long-term solutions.

Sustainable Public-Private Solutions:
One of these long-term solutions is the implementation of the recommendations and outcome of the National Conference on the Transformation of the Nigerian Livestock Industry held in Abuja from September 11 to 15, 2017. The conference, organized by the Federal Government through the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, had in attendance stakeholders across the academia, agriculture/development institutions, security agencies, representatives of farmers and herdsmen associations, community and religious leaders. One of the Conference recommendations is the modernization of Nigeria’s livestock industry through the establishment of Ranches:

These Ranches will be Public-Private Partnerships, involving the Federal and State Governments, local communities, and private investors.

They will offer Land, Water, Pasture and Security, and include facilities for production of livestock, fodder and pasture, grain for livestock feed, as well as processing and service facilities.

Funding will come from a variety of sources including a proposed 'Anchor Growers Scheme' to be developed by the CBN and modeled after the existing Anchor Borrowers Scheme launched for smallholder farmers in November 2015.



ECONOMY

19. We used to spend almost $3 billion on rice importation, now rice importation has been cut by 80%. Reduction in rice imports has a result of government's policies that has encouraged massive rice production across Nigeria.

20. More support to State Governments than any other government since 1999.
"As at September 2017, total support (excess crude account koan and budget support facility), excluding Paris Club Refunds, is in the order of #876.3billion, and if we add Paris Club Refund Refund, we have disbursed #1.91trillion." - VP Yemi Osinbajo

22. The Ministry of Finance has so far released N1.2 trillion under the capital expenditure component of the 2017 Budget -- which took effect from June 2017.

27. Ministry of Finance: Nigeria is set to issue a US$2.5 billion Eurobond; a follow-up to the US$3bn Issuance in late 2017. Transaction Advisers have been appointed for the Issuance.

28. From Bloomberg: "Net foreign inflows to Nigerian equities totaled 337 billion naira ($940 million) last year, the first time flows have been positive since at least 2013. December was the best month since Bloomberg started compiling data at the beginning of 2014, with net inflows of 140 billion naira, signaling a switch in sentiment toward equities in Africa’s biggest oil producer."

29. As part of efforts by the Federal Government to block revenue leakages (about N100 billion was discovered as tax revenue shortfall by contractors between 2012 and 2017), on January 9, the Ministry of Finance ordered vendors of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to display their Tax Identification Numbers (TINs) on their invoices before payments are effected by the MDAs.

30. The Nigerian Ports Authority: The Nigerian Ports Authority has declared total revenue of N299.56bn for the 2017 fiscal year. The 2017 revenue exceeded the previous year’s N162.20bn by 84.65 percent and is the highest ever generated by the agency.

34. From the Social Investment Programme (SIP): Over 246 million meals have been served to date to primary pupils across 20 states in the country, since the National Home Grown School Feeding Programme (NHGSFP) kicked off in December 2016.

36. N-power scheme, which is targeted at providing jobs for unemployed young graduates, has recruited 200,000 youths, and will increase that number in 2018.

43. Ease of doing business: the Federal Government signed into law two bills from the National Assembly (Acts are the Secured Transactions in Movable Assets Act, 2017 (otherwise known as Collateral Registry Act) and the Credit Reporting Act, 2017) which has facilitated access to more affordable credit for Nigerians, fast tracked budget submissions and promotes Made-in-Nigeria products.

Op you write on behalf of Buhari’s Media team. I will reply from the office of the citizen.
The primary responsibility of government is the security of lives and property. The mindless killings in the North Central is unacceptable. The life of the average Nigerian has become very cheap. The problem preceded Buhari but he is doing next to nothing about it. Until the killings stop, this administration remains a failure
Re: Must Read: 100 Solid Achievements Of The Buhari-led Administration [part 1] by enlady(f): 5:39am On Apr 23, 2018
This administration is a failure in agriculture as far as I am concerned. Farming settlements are being over run by the herdsmen with agricultural produce destroyed. Very soon we will have a food crises if government does not wake up to its responsibility
