Buhari doesn't give a damn; call him all the names you want; whine and wail like a hyena; PMB remains resolute, unperturbed, focused, because he is a man on a mission to deliver - and he will Insha Allah. Wailers, over to you - come poor your venom as usual. 1 Like 1 Share

rusher14: History will not be kind to PMB... His administration in 1984 was characterized by high unemployment rate and hunger .... Our fathers queue for milk,grains rice and grains etc.... as a result of archaic policies.... His way of controlling inflation and was to send out soldiers with koboko..... To force traders to sell essential commodities at a fixed price regardless of costs..... Land borders were closed combat the black market in the country’s currency. Despite the level of goodwill when he came in as Presido .... Nigeria slipped into the poverty headquarter of the world.... Children stealing their neighbors pot of soup.... Unemployment rate worsened with youth unemployment rising to 38%...... Like in 1984, Buhari blamed our neighbors for the smuggling of rice and has shut the borders..... Scarcity has led to a sharp increase in prices of rice and other essential commodities...... PMB disregard for court order is legendary...... His Fulani herdsmen army on rampage .... I dont see any positive coming from this administration... Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. |

Truthbites: OK allow this so called "zomby" to educate you a little. - Don't just believe all the so called figures that you are reading online. Most are just inflated, distorted and out right lies figures. Secondly, you have to borrow to be able to embark on these types of projects that are ongoing in the country right now. Nigeria is not a RICH country contrary to what many will like to believe. You are poor if you have a salary of 1 million Naira but you have 50 kids to feed. That's the story of Nigeria. Buhari has not borrowed the 30 billion yet, so let's not jump before the facts are in. They are trying to borrow another 30 billion but it's not borrowed yet. Borrowing the money is not the issue, the issue should be what will the money be used for and will there be proper oversight to man=ke sure that the money is spent judiciously. Instead of the opposition to focus on the details of the loan, they are busy brainwashing the gullible public with lies, rumors and innuendoes. Borrowing is not the problem, it's what you do with it that matters. The US is the biggest borrower in the world, they owe so much money to China and Japan alone that should those countries ask for their money right now, the US will go bankrupt or just declare war on those 2 countries alone. Nigeria is not a rich country, we make so little from oil and other avenues when compared to the population (200 million plus), the financial situation is further compounded by corruption, laziness and lack of ingenuity. Take UAE for example - they make more than Nigeria in oil and the original population is only about 2 million. Coupled that with massive investments in infrastructure, leaders with foresight and minimum corruption then you have Dubai and Abu Dabi. Nigeria is the opposite - less money from oil, massive corruption especially during oil booms under the pdp, almost no serious investments during the so called oil booms under the PDP. ask yourself honestly, what kept the pdp from building the 2nd Niger bridge when oil sold for as much as 140 dollars per barrel but the man is building it while oil sold for as little as 28 dollars? That's one simple question that you should ask yourself. That's enough education for today. Class is dismissed. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Truthbites: Still waiting on your points oh. Pls start with explanation of why under pdp with oil selling for $140 they could not build the 2nd Niger bridge but Buhari with oil selling for as low as 28 dollars per barrel is building the bridge. Let's start with that. educated and informed minds will like to know. 1 Like |

IpobAntidote: It's good you are being logical unlike the ones that will rather insult than make their points. While we're still being logical, can you point out the infrastructure that was done in the last five years with the meagre earnings. I don't see them. I remember when PHC airport was commissioned by PMB. Unfortunately, there was nothing extra done to the airport over and above the state it was left in when GEJ handed over. They only opened up the arrivals wing. Talk of the war against BH, the occupied territories were liberated during the six weeks before the March 2015 elections - from Gombi to Mararaban Mubi, on to Michika, Askira, Lassa, Madagali and Gwoza, and on to Mubi, Gella, Maiha, Vimtim. All done before handover. So I still ask, what exactly were the main achievements since 2015? What was done with the money? Enlighten me. |

IpobAntidote: The PDP government was mired in corruption. It's no longer news. But they set up the plans for the bridge, commissioned it, and laid the ground work for it. This government did not meet an empty playground there. It was definitely overpriced, for sure. No arguments, they were corrupt. Let's leave their matter for now. Let us list and analyse PMB's achievements now, if there are any. |

Mordecai: Pls stop spreading fake news - many local govts were under Boko Haram before GMB came in and many have since being liberated since then. Now what most people don't understand is that even the most advance Armies in the world find is very difficult to defeat an insurgency. The reason is that you are not fighting a conventional war where 2 Armies are fighting each other. In an insurgency such as the BH situation, you have people who will dress up as civilian in one minute and become combatant the next minute. You don't know enemy from friend. The old Soviet Union took on the Taliban for more the 20 years and they ended up running away. Ask even the US of their experiences with unconventional wars. Even the US will be proud of what the Nigerian Army has done with Boko Haram under GMB. The US Army spent more than 7 years trying to fight s a small rag tag Vietnamese Army with the best equipments and intelligence in the world. They ended up running back to the US because the enemy was using the same tactics as these BH criminals. They will laugh with you during the day and hit hard at night. I don't understand why Nigerians have very very short memories. I still remember vividly coming to Nigeria under Jonathan and people even in Lagos where scared that Boko Haram will soon over run the whole country. Now only people living in BH region even think about BH. Most only read about it in the news papers. That was not the case under Jonathan. They blew up the UN building in Abuja and like I said before, even Lagos was not a safe place then. So pls put things in proper perspective and context. 1 Like |
