Exactly my thoughts...almost everything on that list can be classified as 1 point (agriculture)
Yet the one point doesn't even make any sense, cannot be classified as achievement.
An achievement should state that through input 'x' you grew a particular indicator from point A to point B. The list is useless to say the least

The rest were filled with would, will, hopes to, going to and many future tenses.

Buhari has done nothing with 13 trillion borrowed.

All these acclaimed achievements are geared towards agriculture which relates mainly to his northern folks.

Nothing in the manufacturing, health and educational sectors.

Buhari is a failure!

I am atikulated more than ever before with this bunch of conjured nonsense.

They just stoned us verbiage at it highest level. They broke one point into 50+ points. It's really sad this guy only has social programmes and can't pin point one achievement he crafted started and finished in 3 years.

Nigerians must know the truth:

You said "10m Nigerians lost their job during Buhari govt of 3½ years ". No argument! I'm asking you to name one company that has close up within the period, then calculate the number that lost their job when your PDP was closing down the following Companies which they met in 1999 and ruined before 2015.

Nitel
Nigerian Airways
NRC
Nigerian Shipping
NMT
Oshogbo steel rolling mill
Aladja steel
Ajaokuta steel
Nipost
National Oil,
Dunlop
Nig textile mill
Alscon
Dicon
Nafcon
Bacita sugar

Iwopin paper mill
Jebba paper mill
Oku Iboku Newsprint paper mill
Volkswagen
Anamco
Leyland Motors
PAN
NEPA
Nigerchin
Michelin
Nichemtex
Kaduna Textile
NGC
etc and the list goes on and on...

PDP ruined everything. Believe me when i say it's gonna take time to revolutionise this country and Buhari/Osinbajo are the men for the job. Take it or leave it.

These points are really scanty and watery, some of the achievements are even repeated twice by changing the words.

If I had the time I would've dissected this crap and revealed it for the sham that it is.


Buhari has nothing to offer Nigeria.

He would've been better off as minister of agriculture, even at that, he may still fail woefully!

how fast has our GDP grown
How low has the unemployement percentage gone
How stable is our electricity
How much has been our FDI grown

Okay. So present these criteria before the next elections and obtain firm promises before casting your ballot. That is how to get the country going. Let our democracy evolve to one of ideas and ideology rather than mere hot air and rhetoric.
